Japanese AHA Face Soap

My sister brought this soap to me on her recent visit from Japan. I was in desperate need of a new facial cleanser. This green apple scented bar packs some serious Alpha Hydroxy Acid punch. I don’t see how I can go back to my Cetaphil cleanser after using a soap that leaves my skin […]

Custom Outdoor Tablecloths

I cleaned off the back patio today, and it is now worthy of being accessorized with pretty outdoor tablecloths. On my wish list are some tablecloths from Outdoor Living Tablecloths. Here, you can choose your tablecloth’s size and shape and have it custom-made in Colorado. They use only Sunbrella outdoor fabric, and it comes in […]

Snack-Trap

I took my daughter to story time at the bookstore yesterday and noticed a cute little boy teetering around on his new walking legs and stuffing his chubby little fist into a handled cup with a lid that let him get the goods without leaving a snack trail behind him. Then today I was flipping […]

Cereal Mix

My mom is big on food “mixtures”. Many times they’re foods that really have no business being combined. However, I think she’s onto something with her cereal mixes. I had been meaning to mix up my own cereal concoction for some time, so when she gave me a big Tupperware container the other day, I […]

Dylan's Candy Bar

I know it’s kind of crazy to write about candy when I can still feel my teeth rotting from the zillion jelly beans I’ve eaten over the past few days. But I can’t not share this candy-colored lunchbox filled with one and a half pounds of Swedish Fish. If you’re ever looking for a fun […]

When you’re tired of singing Happy Birthday…

When you're tired of singing Happy Birthday...

Along the same lines of the Firefly Toothbrush, I like this Squid Soap by Airborne. It “stamps” your child’s hand with a vegetable dye when they push the pump, and it takes about 20 seconds of hand washing to scrub off the ink mark (to “train” them to wash their hands longer without having to […]

Post-Easter Toothbrushing Tip

Until recently, my 4-year old spent more time chewing on his toothbrush than actually brushing his teeth. So we’ve been going through quite a few toothbrushes. I let him pick out his brush at Target recently, and he picked this Firefly toothbrush. It has a built-in LED light on the bottom that starts flashing when […]

Egglings

So I didn’t quite get our garden planted this year, which is probably a good thing. Last summer I spent far too long standing out in the 115 degree heat spraying massive amounts of water into a garden that eventually produced a few dozen radishes and carrots (no sign of the corn, pumpkin, beans or […]

Kids Organic Cotton Pajamas

Happy Spring! Pretty soon it will be time to switch over to warm weather jammies. The cuteness factor of these Hanna Andersson kids organic pj’s is seriously tempting me. They come in grown-up sizes too! $34 at Hanna Andersson

Honibe honey drops

I’ve had this very loud, very annoying barking cough that hits me about 7 pm each evening for almost a week now. So I’ve been having a spoonful of honey before bed to help soothe my throat. When I saw these Honibe honey drops, I thought “Hey! Now there’s a smart idea. Honey in a […]
