Must Try Snack-to-School Ideas

I happily admit I love making school lunch and snacks for my boys, and I also love getting creative with everything I make them. If you are looking for creative lunch ideas for your kids, you’ve come to the right place (and I’m using a favorite, Arla Dofino cheeses, in all of these!) Arla Dofino […]

    I just went over and entered. How cute are those lunch boxes!!

  • jeanine

    Yum. My kiddos are such piglets I’m always scrambling trying to make them good snacks for school. I like being creative and making fun snacks.

  • Tracey

    You had me at cheese! Dofino makes the best too. I love their gouda.

  • Kristi

    We love to try different cheeses and thankfully our kids do as well. I am going to look for this brand the next time I am at the store.

  • Chrystal

    I loveeeeeee gouda cheese. It is hands down my favorite cheese in the entire world. It works well with wine and cheese night.

  • Shell

    I love cheese! These are maybe a little strong for my kids, but I’d eat them!

  • Candy o

    I need to get some of this cheese! I call my boys cheese snobs.. I bet they would love it!

  • Tracy

    I dont think my daughter has ever tried gouda but she loves cheese, and I know I like gouda, so it would be great for lunch or snacks.

  • Erin F

    Is there any food better than cheese?

    entered on their facebook page, thanks!

A Deliciously Spooky Halloween

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of The Hershey Company. All opinions are 100% mine. Halloween parties are fun for Americans of all ages, and at least a third of us will be hosting or attending a Halloween party this year. Those parties are especially fun when the treats are part […]

    We won’t be doing a party this year. I will be taking the night out. I LUV that little graveyard idea.

  • Marcie W.

    Halloween is one of my all time favorite holidays and candy is definitely has a bit to do with that decision. The edible cemetery you made is awesome!

  • Ora Lee Gurr

    Catch the flying egg sounds like a lot of fun. It’s a delight to add a new event to the party. Cadbury eggs always have something tasty for holidays, don’t they?

  • I’m loving these Halloween treats. I need to put together a list of things I need to have for the Halloween party.

  • Cinny

    That looks like so much fun! Plus, it must be so delicious too.

Almond & Artichoke Hummus Recipe #MeatlessMondayNight

We are a family that definitely eats a bit too much meat, and it’s healthier to enjoy a more plant-based diet. It’s good for us, and it’s good for the planet too, so I recently decided to remix some favorite recipes for my family into versions that are both meatless and dairy-free and still amazingly […]

    That sounds like an awesome game day snack. I love hummus 🙂

  • Catherine S

    This sounds really good. I have never had anything but chickpea hummus, but I would like to try it. Thanks for the recipe.

  • Pam

    Mm, this looks really good. I love hummus!

  • Crystal

    Mondays mean lots of snacking as we watch football. It’s great to have better-for-you options available like this one. Can’t wait to try it.

  • Ann Bacciaglia

    This is a great recipe to try for movie night. I will have to pick up the ingredients i need to make it. It looks so delicious.

  • Kiwi

    I didnt know you can make dip with Almond Milk! Good to know it looks rich and creamy!

Time For My Shelfies #StreamTeam

This week officially marked the first week of pseudo-freedom for me, where both my boys were in school all day and I had almost 5 hours a day to myself. Of course, it was spent catching up on things that I needed to do since the beginning of summer, but couldn’t because I always had […]

    I watched all seasons of Pretty Little Liars on Netflix, now I’m dying for season 6….. The other is Scandal. I need to get that off the shelf asap!

  • Tracey

    I love Netflix…maybe a little too much LOL.
    Right now I am on Season 6 of Grey’s Anatomy.

Because We All Get Congested Sometimes…. #NightsRight #IC

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Breathe Right®. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation. Sleepless nights due to nasal congestion are a fact of life, and while I’m not going to point any fingers, some […]

    My husband snores SO bad and these are the only thing that help him not snore. I want to buy stock in them.

  • Toni

    These seem like a good product to keep on hand in the medicine cabinet. I have heard of them but did not know much about them so thank you for the mini tutorial!

  • Stacie

    I always use Breathe Right strips when I have a cold. I love that they come in Lavender now.

  • Pam

    My daughter had to use these during a really bad sinus infection. They worked so much better than I thought they would.

  • Debbie Denny

    I have used these before. I am excited about the new scent. I will pick some up.

  • Kristi

    I haven’t used these but I have friends who really rave about how amazing they are.

  • Marcie W.

    I used Breathe Right strips when I was pregnant and they really made a huge difference. Not only did they allow me to breathe more comfortably, they helped my snoring subside so my husband could sleep too!

  • Crystal

    With cold and flu season around the corner, I better stock up on these! We had a tough year with illness last year, so this year I want to be better prepared.

  • Brandy

    I love breath right strips, they work so wonderfully. I have a ton of them. Glad they help you!

  • Theresa

    These actually work really well! I keep a steady supply in my medicine cabinet every winter!

  • Liz Mays

    These sound like great things to have around. That lavender scent would be so lovely.

  • Valerie

    We have been using Breathe Right for years. They truly help my husband get a good night of sleep.
