Help for the Holidays

I wanted to share a little bit about a great website that I found through MomSelect.

The "Real Holiday Helpings" website is a great resource for SUPER busy moms {like I know you all are} to use during the SUPER busy holiday season.

The website has a ton of SUPER recipe ideas for the holidays, as well as some awesome videos of Bobby Flay sharing his {holiday} magic in the kitchen!

The Caesar Salad Crostini that Bobby makes on one of his videos looks so YUMMY and SUPER elegant for a party! I am definitely going to be making them soon!

Plus, you can print out some great coupons and even enter to win a year's worth of groceries for FREE! What mom doesn't love free food?!?

I am planning to share a little more about this website and the SUPER yummy recipes one day next week. So come back and check it out...and I will be giving away a little surprise too {thanks to the people at Hellmann's Real Holiday Helpings who are supplying me with a $25 American Express gift card for one of my readers and one for me too}!

********************************

This was NOT the view from our hotel room last week. Jason and I did NOT have a great {and much needed} mini vacation...going to dinner, seeing a movie, doing a little shopping, and getting room service breakfast the next morning!

For more than half of last week, I was NOT confused about what day it was. This was NOT because the boys were out of school and Jason was off of work, throwing my whole weekly schedule into a jumbled mess.

On Thanksgiving, I did NOT forgo eating a bunch of SUPER healthy vegetables and really yummy turkey just to save room for dessert. I would NEVER eat dessert instead of lunch or dinner! I did NOT 'sample' almost all of the five or six desserts that were served at my grandmother's house!

I did NOT go shopping on Thanksgiving night {and Black Friday morning}...leaving my house at 9:30 pm and not getting home until 8:30 am the next morning. I would NEVER be crazy enough to completely forgo a night of sleep just to get some SUPER deals and have a ton of fun!

Lately, I have NOT been obsessed with making SUPER cute appliqued shirts for the boys. I am NOT planning a GIVEAWAY for tomorrow....and I am NOT going to make a shirt of their choice {size, color, fabric, and design} for the winner of that giveaway!

I Heart Faces Week 47 We Heart Tooshies

I have for the most part stopped entering the I Heart Faces contest each week...mainly because my photography skills are a bit lacking, and I know my pictures are never as great as the ones that win. BUT when I saw this weeks theme, I just had to enter this picture! This is one of my favorite pics of the boys...I even got it printed on an 18X24 so I could hang it in my hallway. To see more SUPER cute tooshies and some awesome photography check out I Heart Faces.
