Organic Mac and Cheese Taste Test I was invited to do a fun taste test, comparing Back to Nature Organic Mac and Cheese with a leading competitor. Since my family loves Mac and Cheese, I thought, why not? Not only do we love this as a side dish, I was happy to try organic varieties. My daughter invited a couple of friends over, so we could … [Read more...]
I have quite a few thoughts on the subject. In fact, I wrote a guest post on Jen and Barb Mom Life about this very subject. I'm not sure there is really a difference between a protective parent and an overprotective parent. Most of us do everything in our power to protect our children, but I think some of us are more extreme than others. … [Read more...]
I'm a Maytag Mom! Thanks to Mom Central and Maytag, this girl will have the latest and greatest kitchen appliances in her house! As most of you probably know, my husband and I purchased our retirement/vacation home a few months ago. My husband will be retiring in 2 years, and we found our dream home already. Although we do not live there … [Read more...]
People are sneaky and shady. Home sellers are no different, especially when they are bitter about selling their home, or the transaction itself. Perhaps they didn't get as much money as they hoped (read: they had the house WAY overpriced), or maybe they were forced to move (not the case in our situation). When my husband and I began the home … [Read more...]

This is VERY exciting news! I am currently looking for a few reviewers/contributors for Eighty MPH Mom, so when my buddy Erin (aka my partner-in-crime/fun), from Slice o' Heaven, said she was interested, I was giddy. Yep - simply giddy. I am sure most of you already know Erin :) Erin and I go wayyyy back and she is very experienced, … [Read more...]
A very good friend of ours started an energy drink company awhile back. This is not just any energy drink company, however. Patriot Beverages Re-Up Energy Drinks is made specifically for our military personnel. We were so impressed with this idea, but we are even more impressed with what Patriot Beverage Co. is doing to help military … [Read more...]
There is nothing worse than walking into a home and being hit with a pungent odor. Whether that smell is caused by pets or just stale air, it just doesn't make a house feel "homey". It can also be downright embarrassing. I think we all enjoy the smell of fresh, clean air, so whenever I get the chance (and when the weather allows), I open all of … [Read more...]
