Oh yes...I just went there. Waffles, practically their own food group, gluten free!

Chores. I don't really like that word, but house upkeep is a necessary evil. There are those rare people that actually LIKE doing it, my mom for instance, but I would say a majority of us wish there was a group of magical fairies that came into our home and cleaned while we were sleeping … Continue reading Keep It Clean

No lunches to make in a rush after dinner, while making sure everything is ready to go the next morning. Checking homework or helping them … Continue reading Weekend Line Up – Friday Freak Out
YouTube will be the last social media app for tweens/teens that I will talk about this week. Don't worry, there will be more. You do not need an account to view videos on YouTube. I repeat - you do not need an account to view videos on YouTube. Yay, somewhere our kids, under 13, can … Continue reading Boob Tube, YouTube
