1 - This is THE BEST peanut butter sold in large chain retailers! I was introduced to it about 5 years ago and seriously have never looked back!  It has 1, just ONE,ingredient - Peanuts! All extra sugar, salt, and items no one can pronounce is unnecessary! Mine has to be chunky but I get creamy for the kids. I eat it every day. No Joke.

Slow Cooker Cream Cheese Chili

2- This chili has changed our lives! I found it perusing Pinterest shortly after I gave birth to #2 and was in need of easy, delicious meals I could throw in the crock pot! Win, like double win! My husband requests it at least once a week and my 9 year old and 2 year old love it too. Try it. You won't regret it! Oh and whip up some corn muffins and your life will be changed forever!

3 - Chapstick. I've loved it longer than I can remember. There is a picture of me around age 2 where I am lathering my face in it! I am told I used to eat it. That urge has passed for me but onto my 2 year old!
My Mom is a classic scent kinda gal and always has been. I've gone through Cherry phases but mostly I stick to the medicated or moisturizer kind b/c they have SPF in them. Dry lips in cold weather burn and sunburned lips in the summer hurt like the dickens!

4-My Boppy Pillow - I am a nursing Momma for the second time around and this pillow makes life SO much easier for me! Nursing a newborn is tricky business b/c they are as floppy as a rubber band and older babies are too heavy for my arm to support, especially during sleepy night time feedings!

5 - My Keurig!!! I am a coffee addict. Really it's not good but at least it's a delicious one w/minimal long term side effects! I've used my Keurig for over a year now and will never go back to a regular coffee pot. I can make one cup at a time which allows me to not waste water, coffee grinds, coffee(once it's made) and money b/c I am less likely to buy coffee out when I know I can make one fresh cup at home! Oh, and best of all, it was free from my Bro and Sis in Law. Love having a big family!


Hoping to become a regular at this b/c it's refreshing to reflect on the goods in life!
