Easy Recipe: Chicken Gyros – By Bobby Flay (Sabroso Saturday)

I saw this recipe being made right before my eyes at a Hellmann's event this past week (full event post coming up) made by Iron Chef Bobby Flay with the help of Lori Loughlin (Becky from Full House).  It was one of my favorite recipes that they made because not only was it easy to make, but it is healthy and very tasty. I'm one who is very picky when it comes to veggies (yes, I know, that is bad!) but with this recipe, I found out that I love fresh spinach.  Who would've thought! I never … [Read more...]

Showing Some Love To A Good Friend And A Fellow Blogger

When I started blogging, I never knew I would become good friends with other bloggers let alone meet and greet celebrities. If you had asked me 10 years ago that I was going to meet strangers from the internet I would've thought you were crazy.  I am that kind of person.  I don't do crazy like that. I'm simple and like to "get to know" people before I let them in my personal life. Now that I have became good friends with other bloggers, I like to help them out as much as I can and show them … [Read more...]

A brand new Disney movie is making it's debut on DVD and Blu-ray next Tuesday September 21st. It's called Tinker Bell and The Great Fairy Rescue.

Marmaduke | Movie Review

Marmaduke came into my life the moment I started reading the Sunday funnies.  It was the cartoon I went to first to read and laugh.  Marmaduke always made me feel giddy.  Now that I'm older, I don't even look at the funnies anymore but my kids do. I'll buy the newspaper just for the coupons -- my kids love the newspaper because of the funnies. We finally saw Marmaduke last weekend and it didn't catch the interest of my husband or my two older kids so my five year old and I stayed on the sofa … [Read more...]

Reboost With A New Boost Mobile

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boost Mobile. All opinions are 100% mine. Since my son is in high school and hasn't had a phone yet, we're looking into different plans that would work for him and for our budget.  I don't want to put him in our monthly plan because that would be too expensive and I don't want to commit to it for 2 years. Instead, we're looking into pre-paid plans. The plan that caught my eye was the Boost Mobile.  It has everything a high school kid … [Read more...]

So folks, that's it. It's Back-to-school time! Summer is finally over (boo-hoo) and school is now in session.
