Disclosure: I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Cascade. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating. Growing up, I was the one who had dish-duty every single day. I’m the oldest of four girls so it was one of the many chores I needed to do on a daily basis. We lived in an apartment all my childhood life so washing dishes by hand was the norm for me. That is until my husband and I bought our first … [Read more...]

During the Getting Gorgeous event, Thyme Maternity was there to showcase their wonderful products for mothers and new moms-to-be. I'm not pregnant or even close to becoming a new mommy since I have three kids of my own and my shop is shut down (just being real here..lol) but since my co-worker is expecting her first baby, I wanted to find out what Thyme Maternity was all about. The people representing Thyme Maternity at Getting Gorgeous were awesome! They were full of information and … [Read more...]

Did you know that shrimp are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which starve tumor cells and help fight cancer? Yes! Recent studies show that eating 8 or 9 shrimp a day can help reduce breast cancer risk.

March 8, 2013 by 3 Comments
New year, new resolutions - isn't that the norm with practically everyone once the old year is over? I used to make New Year’s resolutions but I stopped. I noticed I wasn't keeping them (it was usually lose weight & eat right) and it got annoying. I was frustrated with myself for not sticking it through so I will not make any New Year’s resolutions. But...... I will say that I did vow to make better choices to start incorporating more fruits and vegetables into mine and my family’s … [Read more...]

January 22, 2013 by 34 Comments
When I think about creating recipes for my family, I usually wing it. Whatever I have on-hand is usually what I work with. It can't be too complicated or difficult to make and it must be simple and easy so I can feed my family of five quickly. Most of the time, I'd like to have dinner on the table within an hour, so whatever makes my life easier, that's the route I'm taking! When The Motherhood invited me to participate in their Flatout program with Walgreens, I immediately said yes. First of … [Read more...]

April 20, 2012 by 2 Comments
Do you have little ones asking that common dreaded question, 'Where did I come from?' I have three kids and each of them have asked that over and over again. Recently I was sent 'We Made You Out Of Love' to review and although I don't usually review books here, I decided to post about the book being that my seven-year-old REALLY enjoyed it. 'We made You Out Of Love' was written by authors, Michael Marconi and board certified pediatrician, Dr Greg Marconi, who both wanted to help parents … [Read more...]
We’re Taking the Listerine® Oral Care Challenge! #HealthyHabits
February 21, 2012 by 1 Comment
As a mom of three children, having good oral hygiene is very important to me. It's especially important to my husband for the simple fact that his mother was a dental hygienist for over twenty years. So it's no surprise that we were beyond excited about joining The Motherhood in taking the Listerine® Oral Care Challenge for the next three weeks along with other bloggers around the blogosphere. We have been Listerine® users for many years. There's no other mouthwash we use in our … [Read more...]
