With so many school districts across the country having to eliminate teacher salaries and educational programs due to budget cuts, many schools are having to come up with some creative ways to raise money for the extras not provided in the school budget. My son’s school collects Box Tops and Campbell’s soup labels, as well as sells giftwrap [...]

What is the perfect way to end a long school day? A perfect after school snack, of course! One of our favorite “anytime” snacks is Totino’s Pizza Roll Snacks. They’re quick and easy and always a crowd pleaser. Totino’s Party Pizza’s now include Boxtops for Education on their packaging as their way of supporting education for all children. Now [...]

If you read my post I wrote a few weeks ago about buying back-to-school supplies, then you probably can share some of my frustrations with what a time consuming process that little shopping trip can be.

You may or may not have noticed that things here at my blog have been really, really quiet. There’s a reason for that. We have become all-consumed with t-ball. At least 4 nights out of the week we have practice or a game and to say that we’ve taken this all in stride as far [...]
I was already “having a Monday”. The kind of Monday where it’s cold and raining, having to muster up as much get up and go as I could to make it through the day, topped off with the mother of all tantrums from E.B. while taking him to school this morning (and all over a [...]
