This post was sponsored by Nabisco as part of an Integrated Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. I was listening to a talk show radio program a few weeks ago and they were discussing back-to-school time. They quoted a survey that said the one area of back-to-school time that stresses parents out most is... school lunches!? Say what?! School lunches are probably my favorite part of the girls going to school and today I'm sharing 6 reasons why I pack their lunch box every single day... and how I do it without stressing out. I know what they are eating. When I pack a lunch box, I know exactly what my girls eat or don’t eat. I recently had a conversation with another parent and she told me that she found out her daughter was buying 2 full lunches, and 3 desserts every single day for school … [Read more...]

6 DIY Recycling Bins That You Can Make Today
This post is sponsored by PepsiCo Recycle Rally. All opinions and content are my own. If your family wants to start recycling, go for it. You don't have to overthink how to recycle, make your own DIY recycling bins that suit your recycling style. While some people are lucky enough to live in communities with curbside recycling services, I'm not. I hope it becomes something my town offers eventually, but for now we have to store our recyclable items until we can take them to the nearest center. Depending on your home's layout and your recycling needs, figuring out what type of bins to use can be a bit tricky. First you'll want to decide where you're bins will be located. Be sure to choose a spot that's easy to get to and one that you'll stick with. If you make it difficult on yourself to sort your recyclables or store them, you'll … [Read more...]

How to Pack a Lunch Box Printable
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Horizon Organic. The opinions and text are all mine. Does packing your child's lunch box cause you stress? It never will again when you let them become part of the process with this How to Pack a Lunch Box Printable. Although I tried really hard to never have it happen, it happened. I raised two picky eaters. Now some days they tend to be more adventurous than others, but give them a choice and they'll always choose Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches for lunch. One reason is because they love PB&J's, but the other reason is that's really all the know to choose. So why don't I just pick what to pack in their lunch box myself? Been there, done that. Most of the time it works out fine, especially if there's a protein + fruit spread concoction inside, but sometimes not … [Read more...]
