I remember a time in my childhood when I would spend the day in The Berenstain Bears town at a local amusement park. I just loved playing in that huge tree! Recently I took my daughter to the local amusement park because I wanted her to experience the same feeling of playing in The Berenstain Bears world like did. But it wasn't there! They have changed it to another cartoon character. I was extremely disappointed. Even though I cannot share the experience of running through the tree house with ...
Roast Chicken Quarters with Lemon-Dill Spring Vegetables
I'm always looking for a quick and easy dinner solution. Being an independent momma often leads to being short on time. So over the next few months we are going to start exploring recipes that are simple to prepare and easy to cook. The first one up is from the cook book 200 Best Sheet Pan Meals. I've been looking through the book and I must admit some recipes look a little time consuming and there are various skill levels. But I also found several recipes that are perfect for weeknight meals. ...

But until now I never really had a solution to bring plates and utensils with us unless they were loose in the bag. Now I can use the picnic set for 2 and have everything I need in a nice compact little bag. Included in each kit is the ...

Have an Eco-Friendly Easter
Every year millions of moms and dads across America buy fake Easter grass to fill baskets. Once Easter has come and gone that plastic grass is still here. It doesn't break down, it's not biodegradable and it can be harmful if swallowed. So not safe to have around pets. What if there was an eco-friendly alternative? Once that was just as cute if not cuter than fake grass? Well there is! Wrappily makes a fabulous shredded paper basket fill that is eco-friendly. I think it actually looks nicer than ...
