Cree and Scooter Kid's Book- We LOVE it!


My daughter loves this book and we read it a couple times a week.  She knows it by heart but still wants to read it so that makes me feel good.   Reading has been a struggle in our house for a couple months so when I see she loves it than I will encourage that.  If we have to read the same book over and over than let's do it as long as we are reading! 
Here is her video review of the book:
You can purchase the book HERE.  
Also if you are a parent please join Cree and Scooter's Parent Ambassador Program and earn rewards for sharing about the book.  Click on banner and it will bring you to the site!

March Is National Frozen Food Month~TIPS


Even if you’re not an extreme couponer, you can still strategize your grocery shopping to save money. Time is another important thing to save.

Coupon site BeFrugal.com founder Jon Lal offers this advice:

1.       Make a list. This basic strategy saves a ton of time and money. One simple way is to use the notes feature of your smartphone and add items to your list as you realize you need them. Since we usually have our phones with us 24/7, the list is easy to manage. When you shop stick to the list to save lots of time and money.
2.       Check your grocery store’s weekly ad in advance. Sunday flyers are available online, so you do not need to buy a paper or wait until Sunday. Look at it online whenever you want and review the sale items while comparing that to your list.
3.       While you are looking at the sales online, now is a perfect time to find coupons for items that are already on sale. Get grocery coupons online; quickly search for the items you have on your list or see as being on sale in the grocery store’s flyer then print them out and you are ready to shop. This eliminates clipping coupons and keeping coupons you may never need in a bulky binder.
4.       Stock up (if you can). Some grocery stores will be having big sales on frozen foods in honor of Frozen Food Month. As discussed in the tip above, you can also get grocery coupons for these items to get additional savings. If your freezer is already full or you do not need these items, skip them – even if they are on sale. It’s not a bargain if you cannot use it!
5.       Consider buying groceries online. In addition to some grocery stores offering online orders and delivery, you can often get great deals buying items online (and getting free shipping on them, of course) when you use promo codes and earn cash back – this is a portion of your total that gets deposited into a free account for you – especially when buying items which grocery coupons are rarely offered on and nonperishable foods. Don’t rule out getting grocery store delivery, either. While there may be a fee of $6-10 for delivery, it may be worth it to you, depending on how much time it can save you.

I did YOGA for the first time!

I'm not sure why I haven't done it before maybe it was too healthy, lol!   Wow, on how I felt afterwards though.  I felt like I was walking on clouds and almost sang all the way home.  I can really get into this!



The class was hard only because my body wasn't used to bending, moving, and stretching in so many different ways.  Next week it will be better, right!  Also I need to work on right and left. Yes, I know my right and left but when someone is calling out stretch your right leg then put your left arm on right knee I get so confused.

The teacher, who is a friend of mine, did warn me I would feel a little sore today.  She was right.  I even took a couple extra minutes in the shower to let the massage hit my shoulders and back.  But I feel good and looking forward to going back next week.

I will have to read up on my YOGO JARGON though because I didn't know any of the poses the teacher was talking about.  I would look around the class to see what everybody else was doing.   What the heck is Downward Dog, Warrior, Half Moon, Cobra, Eagle and I'm sure there were more but I forgot them now!

I will be at Forest Yoga  with my girl Aviva-Breathe In Love  at 7:30pm next Tuesday!
