Cream cheese is a staple in our home. However, I only just discovered Organic Valley's cream cheese. Normally, I would buy store brand, or whatever is on sale. A few years ago, I started buying organic milk. I made the decision based on some research I had done. Honestly, I would love to buy everything organic. Unfortunately, we cannot afford that option at this time. So, I make changes as I can. Milk was first and we are hooked. We can actually TASTE the chemicals in regular--non organic milk now. There is no going back for our family! LOL! Anyway, one of the milk brands I buy is Organic Valley. So, when the cream cheese went on sale at our store, I bought it! All I can say is--we are again hooked! LOL! My husband came in the kitchen while I was cooking and was taking chunks at a time. I had to kick him out of my kitchen! LOL! He was shocked at how yummy and creamy it was. News got out to my kids and soon, I was overtaken by cream cheese thieves!! LOL! It's crazy! I mean we have … [Read more...]
Seasons 52 – {Altamonte Springs, FL}
Recently, my oldest daughter and I went on a momma/daughter date to Seasons 52 in Altamonte Springs, FL. I had been there once a loooooong time ago and remembered that I really liked it. I am happy to tell you that I STILL do! It was fabulous. The service was on point. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and kept our drinks full. The food was absolutely delicious! We shared an appetizer: Lump Crab, Roasted Shrimp & Spinach Stuffed Mushrooms under Parmesan-panko crust. I asked if the shrimp was wild caught because I am allergic to farm raised, and YAY it was! This was DELICIOUS! We got the same entrée, and it was: Oak-Grilled Filet Mignon cremini mushrooms, rainbow carrots, asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes. YUM! And, shocking that it was not over 475 calories (keep reading for more on that)! It was one of the BEST filets I have ever had. Seriously. Then, even though their desserts are "mini indulgences", we still decided to share one (I was getting full!), and picked … [Read more...]
Otterbox – iPhone 3GS Defender Series Case
When I decided to purchase an iphone last year, I knew I would need a very good case. you see, I am clumsy and drop my phone frequently. LOL! I needed something that was durable, affordable and pleasing to the eye. After a little research and shopping, I chose the Defender Series Case from Otter Box. Mine is black just like the picture and after over a year, it is still in great condition. They only have black and white when I was shopping for them! Now, you can get it in pink, yellow and pink & black combo. I have dropped it at least a half a dozen times and not even a nick in the case! It has even gotten wet from sweat during a hard workout. No affect. It is fabulous. The iPhone Defender Series Case has two layers. The first is a very hard plastic and the second (top layer) is a rubbery material. It works for a dropper like me! LOL My only complaints would be: 1. it is really bulky. I wish it was a little sleeker and less bulk. It makes it harder to fit in my pocket when I … [Read more...]
