Gourmet Gift Baskets {Gourmet Gifts For Dad} & Giveaway (6/19)
I was sent Gourmet Gift Baskets for review. All opinions are my own.
I tend to struggle with finding gift ideas for the men in my life. My father is in his 70's now and while he's fairly active given his age, he lives a fairly simple life. He's never been one to collect things or to have a hobby that required regular purchases. It makes getting gifts for him a little tough because he just doesn't want much! One thing that I like to turn to for him is gourmet foods or snack gift baskets. Everyone Read more [...]
Zipzicles ~ Make Ice Pops At Home + Giveaway (US) 6/17
With Summer officially here and school work complete, the kids are spending a great deal of time outdoors. As they run around and burn off all that Winter energy, they need to stay hydrated as well as eat some nutritious snacks.

R stands for Rest. You should take it easy and rest the affected extremity as much as possible. It may be necessary to use crutches for a few days in the event of a bad lower extremity sprain. Relax Read more [...]
Nellie’s Free Range Eggs ~ Get Into The Kitchen With Your Kids This June For “Nellie’s Summer School”
Summer is so close that my kids can practically taste it! We are winding down with school and they've already began to spend the majority of waking hours outside, as long as the sun is shining. I have to admit that it's been a welcomed change to the busy schedule of the school year and daily routine of school days. But with the summer break, kids don't have to completely check out. There are still lots of fun ways to get some hands on learning during break, including taking part in “Nellie’s Read more [...]
