This Ello Products Giveaway is sponsored by Ello Products.  As always, all opinions are my own. The older I get, the more I appreciate useful gifts.  I'm always happy to receive a present that contains something I know I'll use a lot, versus something that's just cute or an odd decor item.  Since I see many Facebook posts from friends saying the same thing, I know I'm not alone.  That's why Ello Products make a great Christmas gift!  And I'm super excited to share this Ello Read more [...]

Thank you to Bullymake for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. We have two rather large four-legged family members.

Thank you to Emile Henry for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. Most members of our immediate family and extended family have some sort of special dietary requirements.

Add that to the fact that our two daughters love to cook, which means we do a lot of home-cooked meals in our household. That brings me to Emile Henry. The Emile Read more [...]

Thanks to Armarkat for providing product to review for our cats. As always, all opinions are my own.  If you've followed the blog for awhile, you know that our family loves cats!

The transition from three to four was basically seamless and we love having purr-babies around to snuggle and love. Our kids are particularly enamored with the cats, and they insisted we get Read more [...]
