Bookcase Explosion
I confess. I’m a bookaholic. While some people have trouble with alcohol and other substances, my drug of choice is reading material! I love books, whether they are e books or “dead tree books” (traditional books), I love them all. The problem is, where to put them? I’ve always had tons of books, and always…
Today is Amazon Prime Day
Today is Amazon Prime Day! It’s like Black Friday, except we’re no near the holidays (thank God!) Think of it like Christmas in July. I’ve been an Amazon customer almost since the beginning, and still get a lot of great deals there. In fact, I find myself ordering more online as the local stores’ inventories…
Strawberry Salsa: Attempt #1
When I was a kid, sometimes I got hungry enough to go into the kitchen and whip up with some really weird concoctions. My mom would get after me about it and laugh. Doesn’t everyone make peanut butter and jelly pancakes or chocolate banana slop? As long as it tasted good, I didn’t care. I’ve…
Brownie Batter Smoothies
Let me introduce you to my “favoritest” smoothie in the whole wide world. Anyone who knows me and sees me on a regular basis has seen me toting these around. I love them and would marry them if I could. They helped me break my Dairy Queen addiction, as well as my sugar and coffee…

Frugal Moms Flag Berry Trifle
They say imitation is the best form of flattery. It can also be downright scrumptious. I was planning on making a traditional flag cake for our 4th of July cookout, but when I saw this “Patriotic Berry Trifle” in a Kroger ad, I knew I had to make it!
Apple Noodle Parfaits
I discovered Ali’s wonderful blog, Inspiralized , a few months ago and fell in love with spiralizers. They really make cooking fun and healthy, and the possibilities are endless! My family especially loves apple noodles, because you can make them for breakfast, snacks or dessert in so many wonderful ways.
