Guess what? Today is my BIRTHDAY! And to celebrate (besides eating cake and Diet Coke and chilling out while catching up on my DVR'd shows) I thought it would be fun to give away a birthday gift package to one of you! I know, awesome right? And I asked some of my blogging friends to join in the fun. You want to win these gifts, so just use the Rafflecopter form below. It's really simple. I chose the new Samsung Galaxy TAB 4 7” tablet because I have the TAB 2 and have loved it. It has an SD … [Read more...]
Gardening with MiracleGro
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Miracle-Gro. All opinions are 100% mine.A while ago, I wrote about Gro Something Greater with Miracle-Gro. We always have a garden, as I wrote about here. I talked about how when we grow, we grow more than just plants. I grow work skills for my children. I grow family time. I grow love. Where I live in Southeaster Idaho, it still freezes at night occasionally up until at least Memorial Day. So I can't plant things that will … [Read more...]
Pasta Salad
This is one of my favorite pasta salads. Ever. It's so dang simple, yet so dang good. This will be a hit at any potluck you take it to. It comes from my mother-in-law and this is her signature salad. Whenever there is a potluck, she is always asked to bring this. It's just a given. She told me how to make it long ago, but I never have made it because it's just better coming from the one who is a pro at it. But last week, we had a family gathering and I decided I needed to make this just so … [Read more...]

Creamy Prosciutto Tortellini
I could live on carbs alone, if I wouldn't blow up like a blimp. Pasta is high up there on my favorite carbs list. This Creamy Prosciutto Tortellini is divine. I posted a pic on Instagram the other day promising the recipe. Today is the day! You can totally make this with bacon instead of the prosciutto and pancetta. I am. It's cheaper and just as delicious, I'm sure of it. Bacon can never ever be wrong. Everrrr. The toasted bread crumbs are optional. I liked the different texture, but … [Read more...]

WinCo Cereal Deals with the Ibotta App
This conversation is sponsored by General Mills® via Burst Media. The opinions and text are mine.Growing up, we ate a lot of cereal. It was our favorite. We usually had the same kind in the house that my parents picked, but once in a while we got to pick it out. I remember going to visit my Grandpa who lived in another state and he would immediately take us kids shopping to pick out the foods we wanted to eat while visiting. I vividly remember picking out name brand cereal and I always loved to … [Read more...]
