Saving Money on Groceries

February 26, 2010

I meant to get this up yesterday, but ended up being busy with my grocery shopping list, preparing for the Once a Month Mom CookOff, and decluttering.  By evening, I was completely spent.
Jamie, from I Am A Money Magnet, asked me a few weeks back if I could write a guest post for her on [...]

Productivity Tool

February 23, 2010

As the mother of 3 very noisy, yet lovely children, I cherish silence.  I have a few hours every day where all 3 kids are at school.  I’ve been known to come home from dropping my youngest off, and only turning on one light.  It’s peaceful.  Relaxing. It’s heaven-like.
But that is the problem.  I’ve found [...]

Caramel Marshmallow Popcorn

February 22, 2010

My family absolutely loves popcorn.  I’m not talking about microwave popcorn, either.  We prefer the old fashioned, popped on the stovetop popcorn, without all the extra chemicals.  Popping popcorn on your own opens the door to so many different flavoring possibilities, too.  I love it!
A friend of mine passed this recipe for Caramel [...]

Valentine Fail

February 11, 2010

Some may call me a Valentine’s Day Bah-Humbug.  And really, I’m okay with that.  I think the idea behind Valentine’s Day is okay, but it is so commercialized and overrated.  It makes me crazy.
Plus, the beginning of February is crazy in our house.  This year I went to Blissdom, we had a snow storm that [...]

As I was preparing to leave for Blissdom, I knew I would need to order some business cards.  I’m going to be honest here, I had no idea where to begin.  I’ve never had a reason to order business cards and I had no idea who was good, and who wasn’t.
I asked around and found [...]

I don’t even know where to begin. Blissdom was absolutely amazing! The Gaylord Opryland Hotel was utterly beautiful, the staff was warm and friendly, and the food was never ending. As was the hotel. We walked, and walked, and walked.
I met so many wonderful women. My bloggy friends have turned [...]
