I don't know about you guys, but it gets harder and harder to send lunch in for Broxton.  He is NOT a picky eater at home (for the most part, although he is set in his ways about some things)  but you send him to school and it is crazy.  Last year, his teacher said he never really ate the lunch if we let him buy it, so we tried to send it in, just to know what he ate and what he didn't.  You know, because I could see what was returned each day.  This year, same problem.  He says that the food doesn't taste as good at school as it does at home, but truth be told, my little social butterfly just likes talking more than eating and that is our main issue.  When I was given the chance to ...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation. Everything seems to be a struggle around here lately, so I am always up for great suggestions!  Since Broxton has started kindergarten, each day is new as to his likes and dislikes and I have to just sort of  go with the fact that he is really becoming his own person. One thing that also changes? His hunger... Some days he walks in "starving to death" as he says... and other days he is " still really full" and doesn't want to eat.  I have several varieties of snacks and treats so that leaves an endless opportunity for him to snack if need be.  I was excited to learn about Dick & Jane Educational Snacks and was eager to see how Broxton would like them.   Dick & Jane Education Sna...

School is about to start here and that means I am already trying to figure out lunch ideas... and after-school snacks for us.  It was hard last year, as he gets in his mind he will only eat certain things at home (one was sandwiches) and it makes sending lunch a challenge...   I will say that I am lucky that he loves his fruits and veggies, so when I heard that Libby had small containers of fruits and vegetables, I was excited to check it out... He is a fan of peas and corn, so I do see them being in the lunch bag off and on throughout the year!!!   We were sent a couple different products from Libby to try and I was just as excited to try them out as he was!  There are times when I really...

Most people reach for any beverage to try and quench their thirst... I know in our house, water is normally a last option and that it shameful to say...  I know we all want to drink something that tastes great... but how about making it great for us too???   Well, we were recently sent a few drinks to try out and I was impressed at how great they taste!   Are you familiar with bai5 ? If you are like me, you aren't... but I know something you probably ARE familiar with ... The coffee bean!  (Do I have your attention now?!)  Okay... so the coffee BEAN is inside a "juicy red protector" that is known as the coffeefruit -or in the case of ...
