I have been waiting for the right time to make this public on my little space in the blogosphere and for this post I felt it was quite apropos. Another Anti Mom baby is on the way! We are expecting our second child this August and couldn’t be more thrilled. A huge change from my last pregnancy! ;-D Of course, with pregnancy us mom’s must take charge of our diet and nutrition. I immediately began thinking about taking those dreaded ginormous horse pill prenatal vitamins. Especially the DHA with its fishy after taste. BLEEH I want to vom just thinking…
Must…Consume….Sugar!!
0My sugar sabbatical for 40 days is slowly coming to an end. I can’t even tell you how slowly slowly is going. I’m dying! My will power is getting the best of me. The cravings are getting worse and worse. BLEH!! I try to keep my mind off the sugar, I consume fruit to suppress the unbearable cravings. But then I look in my pantry and all I want to do is eat a fucking piece of candy!!!!!! I’ve lasted through birthday parties with tons of cookies, rice krispies treats, Twizzlers, cake pops and mounds of chocolate. I’ve lasted…
Food Truck Party
0I know I’m tardy for the food truck party, but holy shit! Didn’t realize I was missing out on some really good eats! I have always wanted to hit up these infamous mobile restaurants but something would always come up to deter me. I vowed the next time a food truck opportunity would arise, I would leap at the chance to see what all the fuss was about. So a few weeks ago, my friends at Capitol Lighting were having an event and 3 local South Florida food trucks were on hand with some tasty bites. Of course I had…
Meatless Friday – 20 Minute Minestrone Soup
0The husband has been feeling under the weather the past few days and requested minestrone soup. Of course the day I plan to make it is a day where I will be out of the house the majority of the day. So how to get the best of both worlds? A pressure cooker. I know some people might be a little scared of this guy, believe me, I was to when I first tried it. In fact, I am still scared of that damn thing. It makes cooking things like soup, which normally take an hour or so to…
Thirsty Thursday – Jolly Rancher Infused Vodka
0I have seen candy infused vodka all over Pinterest and have been dying to make my own concoction. I threw my husband a surprise party a few weeks ago (more on that to come) and decided to whip up a batch for a fun drink to serve at the party. Didn’t realize how simple and easy it is to do this and it tastes delicious – and potent! Yowzah! You can do all 5 flavors in the candy bag, but I just stuck with my husband’s favorite flavor, cherry. Although, I have a feeling watermelon would be amazing too. Jolly…
Dunkin’ Donuts: More Than Just Breakfast
0Who doesn’t love doing a Dunkin’ run before heading to work in the mornings?! Although I am not much of a coffee drinker, I would hit up Dunkin’ Donuts almost 3 times a week for a hot chocolate and bagel as I drove into work. I got to say, that is the only thing I miss about working-my Dunkin’ runs! Lucky for me, Dunkin’ Donuts has now expanded their menu, so you can get great bites and drinks all day long with Dunkin’ Donuts Anytime! I was lucky enough to be invited to a tasting event at a local Dunkin’…
Free 60 Day Trial Membership to BJ’s – Chh-chh-check it out!
0When a great opportunity arise, I am compelled to share! I love me some wholesale clubs – SAMs, Costco..but mostly BJ’s. My family has been a member for more than 15 years now. Not only do they give you a chance to try out the club for 60 days minus the surcharge, but you get to use coupons! You have no idea how great that is…ok well maybe you do! I tend to choose BJ’s over the other wholesale clubs just for that alone. On top of using manufacturer coupons, they even publish their own coupons for additional savings on…
Meatless Friday – Roasted Mini Sweet Pepper Antipasto
0I had a shit ton of organic little sweet peppers. They are always in the house, but I mostly use them to add some crunch and color into my salad. I wanted to spice things up a little, you know, step out of the box. I decided to roast them up in the oven with a little olive oil and sea salt. Kind of like my favorite Italian roasted red peppers that are usually apart of an antipasto. Since my husband and I have been eating like crap lately, this is going to be an nice, light meal so we…
Best Shoes For New Walkers
0Toddler shoes: my newest obsession that will undoubtedly make me broke. I honestly had no idea how many options and styles there were of shoes for babies. And don’t even get me started on the prices! I really only figured the expensive shoes were the little Nike’s for babies. I was wronger than wrong. Now that Ava is walking all over the damn place, I figured she needed some type of support for her fat, chubby feet. I had my fun with all the cutesy sandals, booties and trendy little shoes while she was an infant/crawler. Now its time…
Dressed & Ready for a Garden Party!
0Springtime is here whether we are ready or not! The suns beaming, the birds are chirping…ahh…It truly is my favorite time of year! With the change of weather comes a change in wardrobe. If your kiddies are like my little one, they are growing like weeds and need new clothes every other week practically! I was lucky enough to be invited to The Children’s Place Garden Party to introduce their spring styles. As soon as I walked into the store I spotted the sweetest dresses perfect for Spring. Pastels, florals, whites and seersucker as far as the eye could see….
