Congrats! Please email me at justanothermomdayblog@gmail.com within 24 hours.

Everyone else..I will be back posting tomorrow I hope!

Not so eggcellent...

So I was all excited to make a post featuring these cute little Rice Krispie Easter Eggs.  I was going to make them for all the little ones at Easter. 

Well I made these today.  I didn't take a picture because they look just like the above picture, and I was so stressed out after making them that I dind't want to look at them anymore.

It took me an hour to make 9.  Maybe I did something wrong.  I don't know but I had rice krispie's stuck all all over me and it was just a mess. I think next time I will just stick with the bars.  If you would like the recipe, you can find it here.

I will be back in action next week...I was enjoying our Spring Break.  I hope you all have a wonderful Easter!

Finally

Monday is over!  What a relief!  I hope you all had a great, relaxing weekend!  So we finally had warm weather over the weekend.  It was 85 on Sunday!  We were outside all day.  Jack LOVES being outside..I think we went for 100 walks and played at the park for hours and hours.  I can't wait for summer break so we can be outside everyday. 

And this is what happens when it's time to come inside. 

PIZZA PIZZA! and a giveaway...

Friday is pizza night in our house.  We LOVE pizza; thin crust, thick crust, it doesn't matter.  So when the makers of FRESCHETTA Pizza contacted me to do a review on their new pizza the by the slice, I was overjoyed...what a great idea!

FRESCHETTA has some amazing frozen pizzas.  They all taste amazing and they are perfect for when you don't feel like cooking, or don't have the time.  Their pizza by the slice is no exception. I had the BBQ Recipe Chicken flavor, and it was just as good as I thought it would be. The pizza came out crispy and hot.  They also come in flavors like Vegetable Medley, Chicken Spinach and Mushroom and Six Cheese Medley.   What's great about it is that you can take it to work, or have it at home; all you have to do it microwave it!

 FRESCHETTA is providing a FREE 3 piece FRESCHETTA Food Storage Set and a Coupon for a FREE FRESCHETTA By the Slice Pizza for one of my readers!

Wordless Wednesday...

A cell phone shot for you...

Check out other Wordless Wednesdays at the paper mama, and enjoy your day!

Is it spring yet??

I keep looking up at my header thinking, "You need a spring header, no more snow!".  I would change it if I had some Spring pictures to put in it.  The weather has been awful here.  We have had maybe one or two "nice" days.  I am hoping we will make up for it soon. 

We did get out to the park for the first time this year...it's so fun to see Jack exploring so much more than he did last year. He is still a bit afraid of the slide, but he LOVES the park! 

I hope your days are full of more sun than mine.  Enjoy your Tuesday!

I am loose....

I have had headaches for pretty much my whole life.  I remember being a little girl and rolling around my bed in pain. As the years have passed they have started to get worse and worse, and in the past few months I have had them everyday.  I finally decided I couldn't take it anymore, and had to do something about it.

So I went to the Dr., did a few x-rays and found that my spine in my neck is perfectly straight.  Normally people have a 40 degree curve in the neck, I have 0; which is also leading to my poor posture.

Not taking care of this can lead to arthritis and later surgery in my neck, so I am SOOOO happy I found out it can be fixed.  I am now seeing a chiropractor 3 times a week and will soon start physical therapy.  And I am happier than ever that soon I will be headache free.  In fact I have not had one headache this week. 

This is such a good thing.


Have a great day!
