Applegate is a brand that we really love in our house. What kind of plans did you have over the 4th? Did they include some grilling and hot dogs? What about natural and organic meat hot dogs? Yeah, have you heard of Applegate and how awesome their meat is? We had an awesome time up…
I always try to push “real food” snack options with my kids. Sometimes they go for it, sometimes not so much. But I’ve found that presentation goes a long way when it comes to feeding kids healthy foods. For whatever reason, a bowl of fruit just doesn’t seem as fun as fruit on a stick….
I find that we don’t eat very much salad in the winter, but as soon as spring and summer hits, we have one with almost every meal, and many times it is our meal. I like to change things up a bit since we eat them so often so I’ve compiled some of my favorite…
Sometimes I have a hard time finding a good Father’s Day gift for my dad and now for my husband. I always want to do something special to show how much I appreciate all that they do and all that they mean to me. There are lots of ideas out there, but finding something that…
Let’s talk about one more drink I have tried in the last couple weeks. We all love smoothies, but let’s get real hear, they take time to prepare and make. I know I know…do it it ahead of time and put them in fancy bags and in the freezer you say. Sometimes I just don’t…

Happy early St. Patrick’s Day! Are you ready for heavy plates of corned beef and cabbage, sweet Irish crème treats and pitchers flowing with green beer? Your going to need something to help that gut out after that. Now, you have already seen me talk about GoodBelly and how much we love it. Let me…
“Mom, I’m hungry!” or “Mom, I want a snack!” Do you hear those all day long? I feel like my kids are always hungry. ALWAYS! And get this…I do feed them every meal! Oh to be a kid again. I’m not sure where they keep all this food but you have to get creative on…
If you suffer from digestive troubles, I highly recommend taking a probiotic each day. I’ve been taking probiotics in various forms for several years and they have been a lifesaver for me. If you have trouble swallowing pills, GoodBelly has probiotic drinks that are an excellent alternative. GoodBelly drinks are certified organic, non-GMO, dairy-free, soy-free…
My two big kids are not fans of potatoes. Except for french fries. They can go for some french fries. So I decided to whip up a healthier batch at home and all of the kids love them. It doesn’t get much easier than this recipe. 1. Preheat oven to 450F. 2. Wash and cut…
For even those who LOVE to cook, weeknight meals can sometimes be a chore! Usually the beginning of the week is fine for me, but by Thursday, I either haven’t come up with an idea or just don’t feel like making the planned meal I decided on when I made the week’s menu. Freezer meals…
Where are my cookie dough lovers? Boy, I’ve got a treat for you. Hampton Creek has cookie dough, chocolate chip cookie dough! You recall the Just Mayo I shared with you this past year right? If not, take a look here. I recieved two containers of the chocolate chip cookie dough to try out. Can…
