Teaching Kids Care And Responsibility With Fish This post is brought to you by PetSmart. All opinions are my own. My two youngest, who are seven and nine, have noticeably been very “me” oriented lately. We felt it was time for them to learn a little responsibility.

You know the ones... when you've reached and exceeded your breaking point to the point that you momentarily snap. It's bound to happen. You crave having a second alone even in the bathroom, the baby is crying in the car because she just doesn't want to be in that car seat another millisecond, the way the baby fights sleep like it's the … [Read more...]

As much as I try to be organized and plan nutritious meals ahead of time, I find myself often letting quick and convenient foods win over balanced meals. With the discovery of the T-Fal Clipso Pressure Cooker, this does not need to be the case. To be honest, I did not even know you could cook in a pressure … [Read more...]
