real moms {sharing} all things fabulous
I love salsa. When the fam goes out to a Mexican restaurant, I might as well not even order a meal because I always fill up on chips and salsa. Now I have found some store-bought salsas that I like a lot, but none of them ever came close to that authentic salsa that I…
A few months ago, I told you about the great qualities of Colgate Total’s Daily Repair toothpaste. Since then, I have been using it every day along with their Gum Health mouthwash and totally loving them both. So today I am super excited to share another giveaway of these great products! Thank you, Colgate Total!…
Do you remember that amazing moment when Cinderella made her appearance at the ball, much to the chagrin of her horrid stepmother and her two mean daughters? At that instant, it was like everything else was washed away, made clean by Cinderella’s beauty and kindness. That moment was one of my favorites to watch, because…
I am all about easy. Include the word “super” and I am ALL. IN. My mom used to make this as part of her Christmas cookie/pie/torte extravaganza (which she still does even though most of her children live in different states now….she doesn’t even care if they don’t get eaten. She just loves to bake)….
My car does not have a good spot for my phone. It doesn’t fit in my console and when I am using it for directions, it is not sensible to have it out of sight resting in one of my cupholders. I have wanted a phone mount for a while but wasn’t sure which was…
Product shown was provided to me by Colgate-Palmolive for review purposes. Applicable images were provided as well. All opinions are my own. One of my favorite days of the year is the first sighting of anything peppermint-related. It signals the beginning of the holiday season and all of the wonderful scents and flavors and warm…
Have you ever tried something new and wished that you had known about it sooner so that you could have been enjoying it for longer? That is how I felt the first time I tried popchips, a potato snack that has half (HALF!!!) the fat of a potato chip and all of the crispy deliciousness….
Do your little angels need a bit of help staying “good” during the holidays? The excitement mixed with the overwhelming number of days until Christmas sometimes leaves my kiddos bouncing off the walls. So I was super excited to check out Roaming Reindeer, a fun Christmas activity kit to help keep everyone in line. The…
I LOVE taking pictures. My kids have the insta-smile down pat and have even grown to love our little picture-taking traditions: the outdoor red circle at Target, the toilet paper aisle at the supermarket (I don’t know how this started but I am powerless to stop it), the “I just built the coolest LEGO robot…
I am not a traveler. I have three teeny tiny humans whose well-being I am in charge of and my leash is short. The places I would love to see are varied and far-reaching: Greece, for its beautifully colored buildings; California, for its wide traverse of beaches; Italy, for its ancestral call. There are many…
About a year ago, I walked into a quaint little store in Angola, Indiana while on a girls’ weekend. It was there that I first saw the Charles Viancin collection and instantly fell in love. Their “inspired by nature” theme drew my eye right away, from their flowery silicone lids to their decadent aprons. Their…
We all brush our teeth every day (at least I sure hope so). It is one of those things that you rarely think about because it is almost second nature. As a creature of habit, I find myself throwing the same toothpaste in the cart time after time with little thought as to why. Sure,…
