    Low Point Chicken Wings

    March 13, 2018 /

    We drink a lot of beer in Wisconsin.  We also watch a lot of sports in Wisconsin. That means beer and snacks, but the snacks don’t have to be unhealthy! This post contains affiliate links.

One of our favorite finger/snack foods to eat while watching sports is chicken wings.  They are often deep fried and fatty, but these Low Point Chicken Wings will blow your mind! They taste so much like regular naughty chicken wings but have a fraction of the fat and calories! One thing I miss while on this diet is…

    Lightened Up Artichoke Dip

    This Lightened Up Artichoke Dip is amazing! This post contains affiliate links.  For more information, read my disclosure page here.  As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. One of my all time favorite dips to indulge in is artichoke dip.  I love its warm, gooey, cheesy goodness. It’s always a winner when I take it to parties and it’s so easy to put together and doesn’t take a lot of time to make.  Since I’m following the Weight Watchers Freestyle™ program, I’ve been looking for a lightened up version of this recipe.  My co-worker came through for me and gave me the recipe she has used for years.  She…

    Frugal Living – Save Money on Groceries

    March 9, 2018 /

    Thinking about ways to save money? Frugal living is important when you’re trying to save money or just make ends meet.  When I decided to quit my full time job and work part time so I could be home with the baby more, frugal living was on my mind! I panicked a little thinking about how we would make ends meet with much less money per month. I knew we could do it, but I needed to put my head down and figure out where we could cut expenses.  My first concern was how to save money on groceries.  For a family of four, we were spending a good chunk of…

    The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

    March 1, 2018 /

    My son hasn’t been sleeping well…again.  So I’ve been dragging during the day.  If you read my post about how to survive when your baby won’t sleep, then you know when I’m exhausted I like to stay busy instead of wallowing in my exhaustion.  So, yesterday I decided to make some chocolate chip cookies from scratch.  These are seriously the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever had.  I used my sister’s recipe. She made a big batch of them one year at Christmas and gave them out with gifts.  I remember falling in love with these cookies then and I thought it would be nice to share it with…

You’ve come to the right place! In this post I’ll talk about the products that made our lives so much easier the first year of Carter’s (and now Isaiah’s) life.  I was cleaning the basement the other day and putting things away and reminisced each time I found an item that we used during the first year of my son’s  life. I realized that I really loved so many of the products, I thought it would be so helpful to share my…
