Some days...you just need a laugh...

I don't have much time to sit and write....I've been very blessed with tons of business lately (yay!) but that doesn't leave a whole lot of time for anything else (a.k.a. - blog writin'). But I thought I'd leave a little something to make us all smile today...sometimes you just need a laugh....

Family Fun on the Cheap

I'm always looking for fun things to do with my kids! Sometimes being on a tight budget makes that a little hard to do! With dance lessons, music lesson, swim lessons, and so on...many ask: where in the world in do I squeeze more "fun activities" into the budget? Also, with the economy as it is right now, many are cutting back on the luxurious family vacations this summer...many are keeping it close to home. I know we are! We're staying close to home...keeping our daily activity 'pool side' this summer! So, if you're doing the same...here are some great tips for some free (or cheap) local ideas to do with the kids...a little closer to home this summer.

A.C. Moore is having FREE 'Make & Take' Kids Art and Activity Classes every Wednesday in July and August from 3-5 p.m. Click HERE for more info about it and click HERE for the Make & Take Summer Schedule....print it out and put it on the fridge!


Regal Entertainment Group is having their FREE Family Film Festival going on again this summer! Each Tuesday and Wednesday at 10 a.m., your local Regal Cinema will be playing family friendly movies...for FREE! It's a great way to get the little ones out of the house to see a fun movie on the big screen...bring some snacks (or a little extra money for some popcorn)...it's super family friendly! Click HERE to find out if your local Regal Cinema location is participating.


Visit or Call your local library to see if they have a summer reading program or class for kids! It's another spectacular way to get your kids reading...or listening to great books...even when school's out!

On another "reading" note...Barnes & Noble has a Summer Reading Program for kids (Grades 1-6) where they can earn a free book if they read 8 books this summer! Click HERE to find out more details about that program.

Look up your local Zoo, Aquarium or Museum - many times they slash prices on certain days or even have a free day or two in the summer! Or if you're lucky enough...you just may have a free zoo in your area! Also...another great way to get in 'on the cheap' is to have a group going together. Get a few of your fave mommy friends and their little kiddos together...many times groups of 10-20 get in at significantly discounted prices! And don't forget to carpool so the parking is cheap too!

If you're a Bank of America customer, you can get into local museums, zoos, science centers, botanical gardens and more for FREE this year! Each Bank of America customer can get free general admission to participating places on the first full weekend of each month...all you have to do is present your Bank of America card! Check out their 'Museums on Us' program HERE to see what places are participating in your area.

Also, make sure you check with local the Park and Recreation Department in your area! Many offer free or discounted community activities. Many Park and Rec Depts. also have resources to get you Theme Park and Water Park tickets at discounted rates. They are also the great "go to" people to find out what's going on in your area (such as where the best fireworks show is in your area on the 4th of July)!

And finally, if you just want to spend more quality time with your children at home and they love to craft (I know mine do!) - then check out these great websites & blogs...you'll be filled with plenty of ideas to spark the kiddies' imaginations!

Traveling With Kids

Warning: Shameless Post Ahead.

Summer's here and vacation is inevitable...I hope! I mean, you've been working SO hard all year long...take a breather...get outta here! Go. Vacation. Be happy.

But, as a mom...I know that the word 'vacation' can stir up some unpleasant emotions as well. Two Words: ROAD TRIP. Another Two Words: WITH KIDS.

Ugh.

There's nothing worse than being in the car and your kids start the ol' "ARE WE THERE YET?" routine. I mean, my kids say that on the way to the grocery store for cryin' out loud! Just this week my four year old daughter lets out a huge sigh as we're all sitting in the car and says "I hate traffic." Whaaaaaaaa? Mind you...we were sitting at a stop light. No traffic in sight. Just stopped. For about 2 minutes. Am I the only mom in this entire universe with the most impatient little ones?

It's adventures like those that allowed my juices to flow and to help me create fun and practical traveling items in my shop! For my own sanity anyway. I've been blessed to be able to share these practical 'traveling-with-kids must haves' to numerous customers around the country! I hope - in some small way - moms all over the place are sighing a HUGE sigh of relief.

So...are you traveling this summer? Need some things to keep your kids busy in the car?
Check out a few things in my shop that might help you reduce your rise in blood pressure when you take your family road trip this summer!

Go ahead...click on the images to see what they're all about!

These are some of the highlighted best sellers from Lil Boo & Co. These items have also been flying out of the shop as party favors for my customer's kids' birthdays!

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Remember...Lil Boo & Co. always welcomes custom requests! So...do you love the chalk mats, but want them in a color that not listed? Just ask! And that goes or anything in my shop! Chances are - 9.5 times out of 10 - I can totally accommodate your special requests! My customers are my best inspiration for new designs and shop items!

Picnicking with Kids

With summer finally here...the warm sunshine and increased energy to be anywhere outdoors - picnicking with my kids is inevitable. Plus...hello...no messy kitchen to clean up! Just eat, shake the crumbs off the blanket and go! Ta da.

I'm pretty sure that every single child on the planet loves eating their meals outside! And now is the perfect time to pack a lunch and head outside for a little food and fun in the sun! Here are some helpful tips and healthy ideas for your picnic lunch with the kids!

PICNIC TIPS:

• Pack your picnic basket with what you need 1st on top such as a tablecloth or silverware on top.
• Keep cold food cold and warm food warm to prevent spoiling. Don't place warm food in your cooler. Wrap the dish in towels.
• Store any uncooked food (if you are grilling) separately from cooked, prepared food.
• Freeze a few juice boxes to help keep things cold and for a cool drink later in the day.
• Place your food in zippered baggies and then on top of the ice in your cooler. This keeps food from getting wet once your ice starts melting.

PICNIC FOOD:

Picnics are all about fast, easy to handle & easy to store menus! That's why kabobs are so much fun to prepare and take along on picnics! Forget about the kabobs you toss on the grill...you can make fresh and healthy "mini-lunches" on kabobs any time...and kids will love them! All you need is simple wooden skewers (you can find them at your local grocery store) and an assortment of healthy foods easy for skewering!

Here are some great ideas for making delicious kabob skewers to take along on your next picnic:

• Great Snack: Cheese and ham cubes
• Fruit Salad on a Skewer: Cut fresh fruit into one inch cubes or chunks: watermelon, pineapple, grapes, strawberries, cantaloupe, honey dew melon, bananas, & apples - to keep the fruit from "browning"...toss the cut fruit in a small amount of lemon juice before skewering. Also...freeze the fruit kabobs for an extra special treat on a hot summery day!
• Salad on a Skewer: Cut up chunks of fresh veggies for your children to use to create their own fresh salad kabobs - cherry tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, broccoli florets, cauliflower florets & carrot chips. You can also pack small containers of hummus, ranch dressing or your child's favorite dipping sauce too!
• For a fun dessert kabob: Go to your favorite local donut shop and get a variety of donut holes. Have your children skewer donut holes onto the wooden skewers for a yummy treat!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

I've been a little....

Missing in Action!!

It's been so hectic around here! I've noticed that when life picks up and it get busy around the house and in my life...the first thing to suffer is usually my own blog! Ugh! Sure...I write for other blogs and craft my little heart out for other people, but my own things tend to lack in content during those times! Oh well...I'm back and ready to blog! Ha ha!

So...be on the look out this week for more to come from me...yes, I really do think that you just visit my blog and wait for me to post something and your life's just not complete until you read something penned from moi!

Let me dream...hee hee!

So...I'll show you what I've been up to...and for my family that actually visits this blog - I'll even include a picture or two of the kids (no, I'm not intentionally keeping them away from you)!

Swami Baby Boutique Review & Giveaway

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.

I just love when children are dressed to impress! You know what I mean? Chic, hip and stylish clothing with functional designs...as a mom of two little ones...I'm ALL over that!

That's why I love Swami Baby Boutique! Swami Baby is a clothing line for infants and toddlers designed to give voice to our wise little ones.

Katie Holley, a yoga teacher and mother of three, began to see that kids already possess much of what we as adults are striving to achieve; they have the innate ability to live in the present, to take time to enjoy life, to be aware of their surroundings, and to be direct.

That's why she created a line of babywear and gifts that reflects the natural teacher, or swami, that children can be if we just listen. Swami Baby not only strives to give this wisdom a voice, but also acts as a calming reminder for adults to relax, enjoy themselves and take life one baby step at a time.

Katie sent my little ones the most adorable tees with designs inspired by our natural surrounding elements to review. I was so impressed! Not only were the t-shirts soft & made from the finest quality organic cotton...but they made an adorable little statement when we were out and about! My kids loved them and so did everyone else! The moms at the park were ranting and raving! And on the "mom-side" of things - I was thrilled when they washed up to perfection when they went through the laundry! What more could a mama ask for?!

And guess what?

I Think My Laundry Breeds Itself

Do you ever have that feeling? I mean, seriously...I do laundry constantly - like almost so much that I never EVER expect to see a pile of dirty laundry anywhere...and then...there it is - WHAM! It hits me in the face like a ton of bricks. There can only be one explanation - my laundry breeds itself. Right? Well....it's either that or my two mischievous children unfold their clean laundry and just dump it in the dirt laundry baskets for fun. Nooooo...they'd never do that. It must be the first conclusion.

My laundry today...after just doing all of it a day ago. Whaatttt?!?! I swear...that's a good 3-4 loads at least.

I mean, I know I shouldn't complain - it's job security, right?
A hard things to come by these days. The only thing is - I work for free. Ugh.

But, on a happier note - I did try out Purex's new Complete 3-in-1 Laundry Sheets...and they are great! They are the perfect solution to any laundry dilemma. Each 3-in-1 laundry sheet contains the detergent, softener and an anti-static dryer sheet for one load of laundry! All you have to do is toss the sheet into the washing machine with the clothes - it dispenses the detergent and softener at proper times...then when you take your clothes out of the washing machine and toss them into the dryer...also transfer that same sheet in with the clothes and it also works like an anti-static dryer sheet! My laundry comes out clean and smelling great! Can it get any easier?! My first thought was...this stuff would be GREAT fo traveling too! Want to try it out for yourself? Purex has a money-saving coupon for you to try it out!

Too Good Not To Share

You know when you get those annoying forwarded emails in your inbox? Yep. 99.99% of the time I click the delete button before I even read the subject line...I know, I know...it's so bad of me. The only ones that I give a second glance to are the ones from family members and friends who rarely, if ever, send forwarded emails. Well...let me tell you...today...I hit the forwarded email jackpot! Seriously! The contents of the email were so good...I decided to share it with everyone!

So...what was in that email, you ask?

The recipe for this:It's a scrumptiously delicious and delectable S'mores Cupcake.

You're very welcome.

One of my friends found a version of this cupcake recipe, but tweaked it a little to fit the ingredients she had in her pantry...the picture above is her version...and here's the recipe for her version as well:

1 box Chocolate Cake Mix
1 container of Whipped White Frosting (*may need more if you make all 24 cupcakes...it all depends on what frosting tip you use...if you like lots of frosting, I'd use 1.5-2 containers)
24 Graham cracker sticks
24 jumbo marshmallows
2 Hershey candy bars

Make cupcakes as directed on the box. Let them cool and then frost them. Place a graham cracker stick into each one. Place parchment paper on a cookie sheet and line the with the 24 marshmallows. Broil them until the tops are just golden brown. Put a marshmallow on top of the cupcake and top it with a wedge of the Hershey chocolate bar. There you go!

*giving credit where credit is due...my mom suggested making the cupcakes out of brownies for a more chocolaty treat!

This recipe got me thinking though...are there some other S'mores Cupcake recipes out there? One with marshmallow frosting, perhaps? I know...I'm totally out of control. But, someone else must be too because I found another recipe...and yes, one with marshmallow frosting.

And here's the recipe for the one above:

For the cupcakes
From Nabsico Graham Crackers
1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs
½ cup of flour
2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
½ cup of butter, softened
¾ cup of sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of vanilla
¾ cup of milk

In a small bowl combine the crumbs, flour and baking powder; set aside. Beat the butter and the sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time. Beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla. Alternately add flour mixture with milk, beating well after each addition. Divide the batter into two muffin tins lined with 16 cupcake liners total. Bake at 350F degrees for 22-25 minutes or until done. **You can fill the liners 3/4 full...which might make less cupcakes...but the batter doesn't rise very high. Cool in pans for 15 minutes. Remove from pans and cool completely on a wire rack.

Top cooled cupcakes with THIS marshmallow frosting. Sprinkle the frosted cupcakes with graham cracker crumbs.

Drizzle melted chocolate over the top. To do that...just melt a few Hershey bar pieces in a plastic Ziploc bag in the microwave...just a few seconds will do. Snip a tiny corner off the bag and squeeze the chocolate drizzle over the cupcakes.

The only thing I regret about clicking on this forwarded email is the 5 pounds I'm going to gain while I devour these.

Enjoy!

Hunger Busting Snacks for Kids

Your kids are home from school and they're starved. Sound familiar?

It seems like each and every day there's someone hanging on my legs begging for a snack to hold them over until dinner time. But the big question is...what in the world should I feed them that will fill up their tummies just a bit and yet won't spoil their dinner? Ugh.

I want healthy snacks that I can whip up in a flash...and I want the kids to be able to help prepare them too! That's when I turned to Kraft Foods.

Mother's Day Brunch

Mother's Day Brunch

Since most of us are moms here, it crossed my mind to not even post recipes for a Mother's Day menu. But, let's face it, besides a "kid-cooked meal" consisting of a cold bowl of cereal brought to our bedside on Mother's Day morning, I think it's all safe to say - as moms, we do the cooking 365 days a year...Mother's Day included. That is...unless you've somehow managed to get the point across that on this ONE day of the year when Mothers are actually even acknowledged, you'd prefer not to be in the kitchen! Either way, scrumptious breakfast recipes come in handy all throughout the year...and these recipes are perfect for a Mother's Day Brunch or just a cozy family breakfast on a Saturday morning. And hey, even though you're a mom and hope to be treated this coming weekend with a lavish meal that is NOT prepared by you...maybe you want to treat your own mom to a wonderful home-cooked Mother's Day brunch!

Here are some great recipes to help you host a magnificent brunch - no matter what day of the year it is...
