This post contains sponsored content. All opinions are my own. I hate doing the dishes. I have a dishwasher, but still...it's basically my least favorite chore. I'd honestly rather clean toilets. So when it's time to have company over, I immediately get grumpy about the inevitable sink full of dishes I know I'll be left with. I'm not kidding when I say that even though I do enjoy socializing, sometimes just the thought of having to get my house "company ready" is enough for me to just ... continue reading...
Stock Up on Game Day Greats with Kroger and Dr Pepper®
Oh boy y'all...football season is HERE. I'm from Texas and we take our college football seriously down here.

I once read a blog post about how you never know when the "last time" is until it's already gone. The last time you wash their hair. The last time you sing them a lullaby. The last time you hold their hand as you cross the street. It's so true. It can be difficult to live in the moment. To accept that the most mundane things in life often end up being the most precious and treasured in hindsight. Those moments that you laid around with your high school best friend bored out of your mind ... continue reading...
Clorox® ScrubSingles™ for When The Job is Too Tough for a Simple Bleach Wipe
This post contains sponsored content. All opinions are my own. I've always been a fan of the bleach wipe. Convenient, simple and clean. I've worked in preschools and daycares and church nurseries and trust me when I say, the bleach wipe is worth it's weight in gold. However, sometimes a simple bleach wipe is just not up to the job. Take the stove for example. Maybe after I've cooked spaghetti? Or my Copycat Hamburger Helper? Or fried up some of my famous and simple ... continue reading...
