Halloween conjures up images of gobblins and skeletons and of course…..candy!  We all know that too much candy is no good for our kids so this Halloween let’s give the Trick-or-Treaters a delicious, healthy snack!  Pop Chips has come out with some new delicous flavors that kids (as well as parents) will love.

Pop Chips are now available in a variety of flavors including spooky tortilla nacho cheese and ghoulish salt and pepper, popchips are a huge hit with snackers of all ages as they provide a delicious snack, without the guilt!

I have tried some of these new flavors and I have to say they were great.  You have a child with a sweet tooth….no problem!  Pop Chips comes in delicious Sweet Potato flavor too:)

These tasty new chips are only 100 calories per single-serve bag and contain no preservatives, trans fats, fake colors or fake flavors.

This Halloween let’s try to give out kids a treat that they enjoy eating and we can feel good about giving them!

So….school is just around the corner…I can’t believe it!  Where did summer go!  I had to face it and do a little back to school shopping.  I found some great finds at Crew Cuts.  My daughter likes to dress up and the sparkle on the clothes and the fun styles at Crew Cuts are right up her ally.

J.Crew is a company that supports teachers! Teachers receive 15% off all their purchases year round.  It is nice they recognize the hard work of all the teachers out there!   Check out the items I picked up…

Where did you find some good back to school finds?

Wow!  This has been needed for a LONG time!  The Container Store is having its grand opening in The Gallery at Westbury Plaza on Saturday, August 11th at 9am.  If you have never been to a Container Store then get ready to find a new favorite spot.  They have solutions to all your household and office needs.  From closet organizers, kitchen accessories, office supplies and organizers, things for the kids playroom, gift wrapping, I could go on and on!  One of  my favorites….tons of different size containers for shoes and boots!!  This store has it all and a wonderful staff to help with all your questions and needs.  The company prides itself in hiring staff that have knowledge and experience, and provides extensive training for their employees to provide excellent customer service.

You would think all this personal treatment and one on one service would come at a high price, right?  Wrong!  Their prices are on par with any of their competitors and their quality of products are superior.  The staff is friendly and always willing to answer questions or help design your new custom closet!

Stop by for the grand opening this Saturday and Sunday.  There will be hourly giveaways and if you are one of the first 100 guests and “check in” on Facebook, you will receive a $10 giftcard to spend that day:)

Cooking Class!

Posted on by

What to do with the kids when the weather is blistering hot and you just don’t want to go to the pool or beach one more time….How about a cooking class!  Recently my daughter participated in a cooking class and she loved it!  It was a fun, indoor activity and as an added bonus it was a drop off activity for a couple of hours.  It gave me a chance to go do some errands and she had the opportunity to create some delicious treats.  She made homemade pasta and cookies.  The kids loved working in the kitchen and they were more than happy to eat the food that they made!
