Okay, so I am still off the soda. But today I want to talk about another addition I have: I LOVE to buy inflatable water toys for my kids. Slip’n n slides, inflatable slides, water hop scotch, you name it. I contribute to the trade imbalance one plastic inflatable at a time. My latest score [...]

And since our existing dishwasher sounds like a 747 during takeoff, they pretty much had me at hello. The new dishwasher was [...]
We usually get our kids a small heart-shaped box of Russell Stover’s because (it’s a classic, and) that’s what my mom always got my sisters and me. But if you do that too, and want to put something with it, or are looking for a non-candy gift option, I came across something I think would [...]
