A New Chip from Pillsbury…Baguette Chips [Giveaway]

I looked high and low in the pantry. Searched shelf after shelf. Looked in boxes…and bags. All I needed was to find one bag. An empty bag would do. But, alas the children in this house have devoured every last morsel in every last bag. Sigh. At least I know they thought it was...

No Child Should Have To Go Hungry…Ever

Hunger. I never think about. Oh, I’ve certainly been hungry before. I could definitely afford to ignore those hunger pains, but have I ever experienced true hunger? No, not even close. There was always food in the fridge during my childhood. I never recall skipping a meal. I always had a lunch at school...

Skip Cooking, Get Dinner from @KFC_Colonel [Giveaway]

I’m not a good cook. Don’t let the apron in the photo fool you. Before you say “but, surely you exaggerate?” No, really. I’m a horrible cook. In 22 years of marriage, my husband has said the following words to me exactly FIVE times after eating something I have cooked — “This is REALLY...

Daily Buzz: It’s All About May Flowers

I love May…always have. It’s not just the abundance of May flowers. I’m not a gardener and pretty much have a black thumb, but seeing a row of flowers makes me very happy indeed. From year to year, I always forget that my husband planted a bunch (pun intended) of flowers a few years...
