Reese Baking Challenge Recipe: Slam Dunk Sweet and Savory REESE’S Bacon Caramel Corn
When I was asked to create a recipe for the REESE’S and Walmart Baking Bracket Challenge, I knew I needed to do something truly unique, yet tasty. It had to be tasty because, well, what good is a recipe that isn’t? It had to be unique because it was going to be one of 32… Keep Reading
Review: Rachel Ray Cookware Line at Walmart
So who here likes Rachael Ray? I admit it-I’ve never really watched her show, but I’ve taken several of her cookbooks out of the library and enjoyed them. Yes-I read cookbooks. It’s a sickness. . . Walmart just started carrying a new line of Rachael Ray cookware both online (live today-March 9th) and soon in… Keep Reading
Empowering Women Together
I am glad to finally be able to talk about Walmart’s Empowering Women Together merchandise!! The Walmart Moms were told about this program back in, oh, November I think. . . we were hoping it would launch before Christmas (because it would have been a great feel good way to get some unique gifts). This… Keep Reading
Valentines Day Pancakes!
What would you do with a bag of NESTLÉ TOLL HOUSE Valentines Morsels? That’s the dilemma I was faced with. The folks at Nestle and Walmart sent me a package to try out.

Review: Oral B Professional Care 1000
I’m a big believer in regular dental care–I guess it’s because my mom was always big on it. Growing up she made sure all five of us went to the dentist every 6 months. We got fluoride treatments, regular x-rays and when they first came out with those dental sealants for your rear molars she… Keep Reading
Review: Create Your Own Conversation Hearts
When it comes to Valentines Day–Brach’s Conversation Hearts are iconic. I remember getting them back in “the day” at school parties. You’d read them, trade them, and try to figure out if the messages on them actually *meant* something depending on who gave them to you. 🙂 Some people love the way they taste, some… Keep Reading
Build a Basic Sewing/Mending Supply Kit
There is a famous saying from the Great Depression: “Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without!” As a frugal gal, I try to live by this as much as possible. I’m the lady who is driving a 10 year old Chevy Blazer and when my mechanic asked me how long… Keep Reading
Recipe: Mozzarella Stick Stuffed Meatballs
Here’s another fun recipe challenge I got to participate in this week for the Walmart Moms. We were asked to create a recipe using one of the Farm Rich frozen appetizers. Now I purchased both the Breaded Mozzarella Sticks and the Pizza Slices–they were both tasty baked in the oven with nothing added. But I… Keep Reading
