This winter in Minnesota has been unseasonably mild and…odd. We were outside for a family walk without jackets just a couple weekends ago, then we had cold days, then more mild days, some crazy wind, and then yesterday, tornadoes, followed by some short-lived snow overnight. What the heck, Minnesota? So…I’ve decided that winter’s DONE (woohoo!), […]

Try the World Subscription Box Review
Recently I was invited to sample Try the World, a newer subscription box that gives you the experience of exploring the world through food. Because I LOVE getting boxes of goodies in the mail, I jumped on it, plus this one looked particularly appealing. For me, one of the best things about traveling is learning […]
MONSTER TRUCKS Movie Personalized Book Giveaway
I still am thinking about how much my family and I enjoyed the new movie in theaters – MONSTER TRUCKS. It captivated all of us, including my daughter. It was different yet full of action and great special effects. If you haven’t seen it yet with the kids, I suggest you do, especially if you […]

My Review (& Test!) of Opal®, the Apple that Doesn’t Turn Brown!
I had the fun opportunity to try out Opal apples, a special non-GMO apple that advertises that it doesn’t turn brown after it’s sliced! If you serve an apple to your kids, most likely they won’t eat it once it turns brown, right? This is a dilemma for parents who send sliced fruit to school […]
(Updated) A Visual Tour of Ice Castles in Stillwater 2017
Ice Castles are back – and this year they’re in Stillwater! I love the location 10x more than their previous location in Eden Prairie’s Miller Park. Ice Castles are in Lowell Park, by all the downtown businesses and restaurants (i.e. places to WARM UP!!!) and right along the St. Croix river. I shared in my […]

Home Chef Review (& Get $30 Off!)
I can’t even remember the last time I made a good, from-scratch sit-down meal, beyond just basically heating and eating. There usually just isn’t enough time and energy, even though there are tons of great recipes I would love to try. And even when I’m in the mood to cook, there always seems to be at […]
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is a Visual Spectacle (My Review!)
“Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” is the first-ever Star Wars standalone film, and it hits theaters this Friday, December 16th! I attended an early screening of the movie this week, and I think all ages will enjoy this film. I call it “Star Wars 3.5” for two reasons – because not only do we give […]
