Have you seen the REBEL WARRIOR POSTERS for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 featuring the fearless rebels of District 13: BOGGS (Mahershala Ali), CRESSIDA (Natalie Dormer), MESSALA (Evan Ross), POLLUX (Elden Henson), GALE (Liam Hemsworth), and CASTOR (Wes Chatham)?

When we bought our home one of the things I was SO happy it had was a walk in pantry.  But to my surprise even though it’s a decent size…it’s a lot tougher to keep organized than I thought it would be.  I mean, seriously how do all the boxes, bags and jar get out of control like that?!  I’d blame it on my husband and daughter but I know it’s just as much my fault as theirs.

I wanted to share some awesome products that make every baker’s life a little easier to help achieve the ultimate baker’s dream – when it comes to baking & cleaning.  Whether you’re whipping up roasted potatoes in the kitchen to share with the whole family, or just a batch of cookies as a midnight snack, these products will ensure a non-stick, easy-to-clean baking experience every time!

I posted about being some what of an insomniac on my blog before, but really realized I needed an intervention when most of my Facebook activity is when the majority of people are in bed and sleeping.  Simply put, I needed a way to get myself to sleep at a reasonable hour and stay asleep too.  Staying up until 2 or 3 in the morning and then sleeping until 9 becomes a vicious cycle that is really hard to break out of, and sometimes if I have to get up earlier for an appointment or other reason I crash and burn, nap and then it starts all over again.

My daughter hates socks.  With a passion.  That proved to be a major dilema for winters when we lived up north.  You just can’t go without socks in December in South Dakota.

A few months ago I took a friend of mine to a warehouse store to go shopping with me.  We were talking about all the different kinds of healthier snacks available and she pointed to a bag of Harvest Snaps Snapea Crisps and asked if I’ve ever had them?  I had indicated I had not and she told me that they were really good.  I was on a strict budget that week, so I filed that at the back of my mind and apparently forgot about them the next time we were there.

Searching for a refreshing, zero-calorie soda that’s better for you?

The fall usually brings me to a place where I start to look for extra ways to save and make money…because the holidays are coming y’all!  I plug away at various online programs where I get rewarded for clicking links, taking surveys, watching videos and completing offers, and I just learned of an app like that called Instant Rewards.

After you fill out an easy registration (nothing more really than your name, e-mail and a password), you can complete ‘tasks’ for various amounts of credits.

Back in June you might remember that I posted about Goodyear’s all-season model of their Eagle Sport tires.  Well we also recieved a set to review for my husband’s VW Jetta.  We’ve had them on his car for a few weeks now and I wanted to share with you all how they are performing.

Unfortunately we haven’t yet been able to test the tires under wet conditions here, as rain in North Texas has not been much of a weather occassion lately 😉
