Guylian-Artisanal-Belgian-Original-Chocolate-Truffles

With all of the foods I'm supposed to avoid during this pregnancy, I thank my lucky stars that chocolate is not one of them.  I don't know how any woman could survive without chocolate, especially good chocolate. I'd love to receive this package every week. I've never been to Belgium, but I recently tasted some amazing belgian chocolate and truffles from Guylian. Their truffles are made in small-batch copper kettles exclusively by Guylian's Master Chocolatiers in Sint-Niklaas, Belgium. … [Read more...]

A Gluten-ous Family’s Take on Udi’s Gluten-Free Foods

February 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Udi's Products

We are not a gluten-free family, but we still tried a few Udi's gluten-free foods.  Some of you may be familiar.  While there are people who have allergies that require this type of diet, others choose this way of eating for the overall health benefits. We were just curious. A package arrived with a few Udi's foods including muffins, cookies, bagels and bread.  Of course the first product I tried were the snickerdoodle cookies.  They were fantastic, and I think it's safe to say they were … [Read more...]

Country Crock Veggie Shopping Kit and $25 Gift Card (Review & Giveaway)

October 11, 2011 By
countrycrockspread

Winner: Kristie If there's one area I fall short on when preparing meals, it's with the veggie portion. I tend to focus most on the main meal, and since both my daughter and husband are reluctant to eat the steamed veggies I enjoy, I have to get a little more creative than steamed broccoli or green beans. In my veggie shopping kit from Country Crock, I found a recipe card that appealed to me for Roasted Cauliflower. With only six ingredients, it was simple and straightforward but I knew by … [Read more...]

If there's any time to be tired of traditional burgers, it's summer time! How many different ways can you eat a burger? Well Johnsonville has revamped the burger with all new Brat and Italian Sausage Patties. I've been craving sausage and peppers, but it's a messy sandwich to eat. Now it's in burger form -- yay!

PILLSBURY_LOGO_Final.jpg

The lucky winner - Katherine! Growing up my family didn’t break bread--well, without breaking bread.  There is nothing like fresh baked loaf to go along with a meal, but I don’t have the time to bake bread daily or visit the bakery. I absolutely love the Pillsbury Simply breads and biscuits.  Not only are they free of artificial ingredients and trans fats, but they make life easy.  I keep a few on hand in my refrigerator and all I need to allot for is 20 to 30 minutes of baking … [Read more...]

May 19, 2011 By
icantbelieveitsnotbutterlogo.jpg

Winner: Kelly Ann T. In the past, I have tried to quit butter on toast.  You’d think that would be fairly simple and easy to do, but I definitely missed that buttery creaminess and added flavor it provides for not only toast but muffins, pancakes, scones, and bagels. For year’s now, I’ve used I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!®. It’s the closest thing to butter without actually being butter.  With half the calories and 78% less saturated fat, it’s my favorite alternative to … [Read more...]

SANS Natural Diet Soda – Review and Giveaway

May 11, 2011 By
sans-logo.jpg

Winner: kathy pease Call it soda, pop, or soda-pop, it’s just plain not-good-for-you.  I’m not a big fan of it personally.  Whether I drink the diet or regular versions of it, it feels like I’m pouring acid down my throat.  It stings!  It’s just not natural, all those bubbles and chemicals. Mostly I drink water, but on occasion I get the yen for a bubbly drink like soda.  When I do, I opt for diet.  But I’ve pretty much made it my mission to avoid artificial sweeteners once … [Read more...]
