This post is Sponsored by Architec but my opinions are 100% my own! I love cool gadgets, but I love gadgets that make my life easier even more.  When working in the kitchen, the less of a mess I make, the better because I have to clean up after myself when I cook.  I don't have someone working along side of me that will do the clean up for me.  So anyway I can save time cleaning up, works for me. Architec has a cool cutting board that really helps in the kitchen.  I have something similar but it doesn't work as well as this one.  It's the Gripper Flex Cutting Board and it flexes to allow you to pour everything you just cut, right into the bowl/pan/grill - whatever!  But what makes this...

This post is Sponsored by Fruit of the Loom but my opinions are 100% my own! Fruit of the Loom is excited to announce its new reinvented boxer brief for men. With the reinvention of the boxer brief, Fruit of the Loom is asking America "We've changed our underwear. Shouldn't You?” ummm... YES! This NEW Boxer is now available online and in-stores nationwide for the same great value, under $14 for a multi pack.  And the new reinvented boxer brief is made of softer fabric with a new hem that stays smooth under your clothes. The redesigned longer legs are contoured and don't “ride up”. It also has a narrower fly and reinforced seams for more support. Fruit of the Loom has also partnered with...

This post is Sponsored by Stance but my opinions are 100% my own! I love socks.  If you've been reading my site for a while then you may know that.  I have a slight obsession with socks.  I don't wear them much in the summer but always have them on in the winter.  And I don't wear plain white socks either.  That is too boring.   I like socks with character and comfort. I found a new company that has a nice selection of fun and serious socks and they are amazingly comfortable - Stance Socks. About Stance Socks STANCE is dedicated to the spirit of individuality with a design philosophy that believes in expression and function. Expression that creates an emotional visual connection and...

This post is Sponsored by Stop & Shop but my opinions are 100% my own! You may remember a few months back that Stop & Shop challenged you to try some of their brands by offering them for FREE when you purchased the name brand product.  There were 4 products each week for 2 weeks and I'm hoping you took advantage of that and found some new products. We took the challenge and figured out that the Stop & Shop cola was just as good as the brand name and their bath tissue worked really well.  We have now switched to both those brands when they are priced lower than the national brands. Stop & Shop is once again giving you the opportunity to try some of their store name products...

This post is Sponsored but my opinions are 100% my own! You may have noticed the sign above at your local Walmart this month.  That is because Tyson, along with Birds Eye and State Fair is working with Champions for Kids this summer in the Summer of Giving program.   Through this program and your help, they will provide 5 million meals to hungry kids!  Did you know that 10% of U.S. children live in food insecure homes? That’s millions of children who don’t know when, or if, their next meal is coming.  And now that it's summertime and they don't have those school meals, it's even worse.  This makes me so sad and especially in a country where we have so much and so many people are willing to...

This post is Sponsored by Yardley but my opinions are 100% my own! Yardley's Botanical Soaps celebrate the time-tested classics first developed in the 17th century in London by William Yardley and have been adapted into irresistible soap bar treats that are not only vintage chic, but have proven pampering for the body and soul.  Each boutique-inspired bar builds to a rich, fragrant lather to cleanse, beautify and nurture the skin with naturally moisturizing ingredients and nature inspired essentials oils. Yardley has a nice line of bath and body products and I was happy to be able to try several of them.  I've used the Yardley Bar Soaps before but didn't realize how many scents they came...

This post is Sponsored by BJ’s Wholesale Club but my opinions are 100% my own! We love to entertain in the summer.  Well actually we love to entertain all year round but the summer is especially fun because we have a pool and we live in a neighborhood with lots of friends.  Therefore, we gather at my house a lot.    This is our 3rd summer here and we are still working on our backyard and making it a great entertaining space.  So when BJ’s Wholesale Club asked me to check out what they had for the summer, I was more than happy to! The girls would live in the pool all summer long if I let them.   And they do some weeks.  So fun pool toys are a must for us.  BJ's has a GREAT variety of pool...

This post is Sponsored by Disney Publishing but my opinions are 100% my own! My kids and I have really been enjoying the books we've received from Disney Publishing. In case you missed them check out Honk Honk! Beep Beep! Children’s Board Book Review, One Busy Day Children’s Book by Lola M. Schaefer, OMG: The Magic Mistake Book Review {for Girls ages 8 – 12} which my 9 year old LOVED and of course all of the FROZEN Books which both my girls love along with our neighbor's girls. I'll admit, I enjoy a good Frozen story too! We received another book called Kate Walden Directs "Night of the Zombie Chickens" by Julie Mata that is also for kids ages 8-12. This book retails for about $16.99 and...

This post is Sponsored by Nature's Sleep but my opinions are 100% my own! My feet hurt so much by the end of the day.  I know I'm not alone.  Most mom's and dad's feel the same way.  Especially when you get to my age.  My kids keep me on my toes all day long, even when they are at school I'm home picking up after them, doing laundry, cleaning the bathroom, washing dishes, wiping up messes.  And now we have a puppy that keeps me moving around as well all day long - going for walks on the hard cement. Seriously by the end of the day, I can't walk.  So a good pair of slippers is a HUGE must for me.  Once we are in for the night,  I put on more comfortable clothes and the shoes come off.  I...
