Orville Redenbacher popcorn bowl giveaway
I admit it, I’m a popcorn snob and my kids are even bigger snobs. We eat a lot of popcorn which is enough to earn us the title of popcorn experts. Mostly we eat microwave popcorn just because it’s the most convenient. The more butter, the better although my kids lost the privelege of pour [...]

Trail Blaze Energy Bars
I recently was sent Trail Blaze Bake-At-Home Energy Bars for review. I’m up for anything that is quick and easy plus good for my family. The true test though is if my kids will eat them. They are extremely picky and it seems the healthier something is the more likely they are to hate it.
