The K’nex Sesame Street products are a great idea because it brings the fun characters that our little ones know and love into a neat building set form. I was sent the Best Friends Building Set to review. It’s a very simple set with 8 pieces and it features Elmo & Cookie Monster, who are… read more »
Last week, I wrote about the advantages of Orville Redenbacher’s SmartPop! popcorn. This low-fat, zero-grams-of-trans-fat snack is a good source of fiber, is 100% whole grain, and best of all has only 100 calories per 6 cup serving. And Orville Redenbacher has challenged us to replace other snacks with their SmartPop! popcorn with their “Healthy Snacking… read more »
How often do you sit down and take a few moments to relax and enjoy yourself? If you’re anything like me, you’re probably so busy you don’t enjoy “me time” nearly often enough. But it doesn’t have to be an impossible feat. Simply adding a special element to your morning coffee time or a out-of-the-ordinary… read more »
Summer Fun For Kids is finally kicking off and to start the fun, I’ve got a great item that kids of all ages will enjoy. Cuddle Covers bring a child’s pillow to life by turning it into a soft huggable animal pal that they will love cuddling with. It’s simple: take the pillow, stuff it… read more »

I’m pleased to announce that I’m an ambassador for Huggies now! Let me tell you something - I love Huggies! and no, they didn’t pay me to say that. That’s coming straight from this mom who has tried many, many diapers over the years. We’ve done everything from organic to cloth to store brands to name brands…. read more »
My Pug dog, Abby, is always there. Maybe I’ve had a long day with the kids and it seems that nothing I say or do makes any headway. I can always count on Abby to nudge me, wagging her sweet curly pug tail, and flopping over so I can scratch her tummy. She seems to… read more »

About a month ago, I wrote about the new Crest and Oral-B Pro-Health Clinical Plaque Control line of products, which helps us keep that “dentist clean” feeling for longer. The four products included are: Crest® Pro-Health® Clinical Plaque Control Toothpaste, which helps remove plaque and prevents it from returning. This toothpaste also protects against gingivitis, cavities and… read more »
The Meat House opened in 2003 with their very first location in my own state of New Hampshire. It was started by two friends who wanted to bring back the “neighborhood butcher shop” and provide superior products and customer service. They’ve since opened more than 29 locations nationwide, with more opening soon. They even have an online shop… read more »
With a family of six, we go have a lot of trash. Diaper pails, kitchen trash, kitty litter, and more, that’s a lot of trash bags. We do recycle and that cuts down on things considerably, but we still need a reliable trash bag that’s not going to split down the side and spill everything…. read more »
Did you know that over 39% of the US has at least one dog in their household? That’s over 78 million dogs! We have our own beloved Pug dog, named Abby. She’s very much a part of the family; she even travels with us when we visit out of state family. Abby’s pretty small, she’s… read more »

I’m a big fan of Pediped shoes. They’re adorable, easy to put on, and best of all, they are good for our little ones’ feet and promote healthy walking. Last fall, I reviewed a pair of the Pediped Originals shoes. They were perfect for Luke, who was about 10 months old and beginning to test… read more »
Steven Curtis Chapman has been a hit artist in the Christian music industry for many years. I remember enjoying his music as a teenager and I still do today.
