My husband loves chocolate cake. Nothing special mind you, anything from a box will do as long as it has chocolate icing - insert me yawning right here. Far too boring for me. So when my husband had a craving and held that little box in his hand, was I ever relieved that he took the time to check out the recipe on the side and agreed to try making the cookies with the cake mix.

It's not so much that I love my Swiffer Wet Jet, more so that I love how it can be adapted to cost you almost nothing to use! I received mine as a gift a couple of years ago, so all initial start up costs were out of the picture for me!After finishing up the solution, don't buy more.

Then just use a … [Read more...]

Okay, I know that this is not a new or creative concept, but around here my motto is 'Keep it simple, Keep it fun!' and this falls right into that category! Plus, when Big Brother is going through his yogurt strike, this little trick gets it into him every time! Moms have to be sneaky! Just fill a popsicle mold with yogurt, I like to layer different flavours for a fun effect. Pop into the freezer for a few hours and viola! Yogurt Pops! The key here is to not let your little ones see you … [Read more...]
