Friday, January 27, 2012 at 11:08AM I'm a mom and a blogger, it's true. I am also VERY bad at housework, constantly rushing to do everything, and very disorganized. So this article from Tales of a Music Mama about Beauty and the Mess really struck a note with me. Believe me. As she says in the article, I defintely don't have it all under control. But just the same, I wouldn't trade my life for anything, and I love what I do! Enjoy, and thanks to my mom for sending me the article!
Oh, and my car may or may not look like hers, and my children may or may not have taken similar picturs of me while I'm on the computer....

Hurry over to Amazon to get a great deal on Popchips! They've got several options, and if you get the 24 pack of single serve bags, you'll only pay $13.33. And if you use subscribe and save, you'll only pay $11.33 shipped!! That makes each bag $.47, which is a steal. These chips are SO good, especially the Barbeque. I used to buy them frequently when I could still eat rice and my kids love them to. These would be great for lunch boxes or snacks! Grab this deal now, because last time they did this it sold out!
Also, be sure to click on each of the products so you can see the subscribe and save prices, which will be lower than the ones listed on the deal page, not to mention the free shipping. And it's easy to undo subscribe and save!

Okay, so this is kind of nifty. The company Datevitation sells personalized love coupon books on their website, and they also have an edate service, so you can email your significant other with an invitation to a special date. They've got tons of options, and the coupons and invites are actually pretty cute.
Right now on Groupon, you can buy a personalized Love Coupon Book for $10 plus $1.95 shipping. It's not a massive discount, but I love the idea of being able to pick what's in the book! First, click here to go sign up with Groupon if you haven't already. Then Click Here to go find the deal. And hurry, because quantities are limited. I'm going to grab one and make a sweet Valentine's Day gift for my hubby =)

I've been out of clever ideas lately for good dinners. My diet is extremely restricted (no wheat, no rice), and I don't want to cook more than one meal. But I'll make an exception tonight, because this dinner takes two seconds to prepare and will be very filling!
Basically, I'll cook brown rice in the oven according to Alton Brown's Baked Brown Rice recipe. It's stupid easy and does not have to be babysat at all.
Then I'm going to take the pot I used to boil the water for the rice (I use a pot and not my kettle since you add butter and salt) and I'm going to toss a can of beans in it to simmer until heated through.
Then I'm going to toss rice in a bowl and top it with some beans, and cheese and salsa and sour cream. Voila! Meatless, inexpensive, and EXTREMELY easy to throw together. Obviously I won't be able to eat it, but I can make do with something else.
This idea came from Leanne Ely's Healthy Foods cookbook. I LOVE this cookbook, as you can tell from my review. And if you're looking for some great, healthy ways to feed your family, I HIGHLY recommend tracking down a copy of it. It appears that it can only be bought used now, but again, it's so worth it!

Here are some awesome freebies from Physician's Formula! After rebate (click here to find all four rebate forms), you can get Boosting Eyeliner Marker, Youth Boosting Concealer, Youth Boosting Foundation, & Organic Lash Boosting Mascara for free! You must purchase the products that have a Try Me Free label attached to the product, as that will need to be mailed in with the rebate forms.
I am unsure if you can do all four of these offers, or if you can only do one per household. I would recommend calling and asking, though I don't see why you couldn't do all four. Anyway, if you can do all four, it ends up being a $48.80 value! Happy shopping =)
