This Frugal Family

The company I work for has Welch’s Fruit Snacks in the vending machine, at my job.  They are known to be a healthy snack, so they have them there for the guys I work with.  I work on Barges, and there’s many employees.  These must be healthy, for the company to keep them in stock.  My son loves them, as well.  So, when I was asked to do a post, how could I say, “no”. These snacks will be used to pass out in my son’s class, this Halloween.  The kids always love Welch’s Fruit Snacks, when Jacob takes them in.  I try to send them at least once a month.  I leave the package sealed, so the teacher knows there’s no risk of Covid.  She appreciates it, as well. My daughter, who is a first year teacher, takes them for her small class, as well.  I get them for her more often.  Because they are such a healthy snack, the kids will eat them, not knowing that.  Their Halloween packaging is adorable, and the fruit snacks are shaped like Halloween things. We will be a huge fan of Welch’s far into the future.  They are so good, and healthy.  However,…

In this all new movie we find Morticia and Gomez distraught that their children are growing up, skipping family dinners, and totally consumed with “scream time.” To reclaim their bond they decide to cram Wednesday, Pugsley, Uncle Fester and the crew into their haunted camper and hit the road for one last miserable family vacation.

Nature Inspired Works, LLC I love Nature Inspired Works so much!  Their products are top quality, and work so well.  I have a lot of allergies, but this brand works wonders, on my body.  My daughter, age 24, tried to nab them, but I shared.  They are that wonderful! I love the Facial Wash.  It makes my face feel so clean, for hours.  I have combination skin, but this wash doesn’t make my face feel oily, or dried out.  I simply love the feeling it gives me.  The Green Tea, Aloe, and Tea Tree Oil, leave my face feeling so refreshed.  I love the feeling, and will be ordering again! The Exfoliating Body Scrub is luxurious.  I love the feeling I get after using it.  I feel so soft, and sensual.  It gives me a breathtaking feeling.  The Lavender Patchouli scent is amazing.  It works so powerfully.  I can’t wait to order more of this product, either. Lastly, I received the Handcrafted Body Wash, in Aloe, White Tea, and Ginger.  It’s amazing.  I gave this to my daughter, and she said she couldn’t be more pleased with a product.  She uses it every morning, before getting ready to teach.  She…

I recently had the pleasure of tasting SOS Hydration.  It’s so good.  I love it, it’s my new favorite drink.  My wife was recently told to stay away from soda, and she’s been drinking leading brands of Electrolyte waters, until now.  She, too, is hooked on SOS Hydration.  What’s even greater, there’s a kids’ line as well.  Jacob, my son, likes the variety, and drinks it everyday.  Which, this pleases me, because he’s not drinking soda then.  We could all use a little health drink in our diet, and SOS Hydration has us covered. The kids’ variety includes flavors like:  Mixed Berry, Strawberry, and Lemonade.  It also has Paw Patrol, on the packaging.  This is great for the little ones, who love Paw Patrol.  You just add the packet to your child’s water, and they will drink it all up, because it’s very tasty.  And, not to mention will keep them hydrated, when they are running around on these warm days, before Autumn hits. I love the SOS Hydration flavors, as well.  There are Berry, Lemon Lime, Mango, Watermelon (my favorite), and Coconut.  You can’t go wrong with any of these flavors.  They are all delicious.  You need to try…

As we head into fall and are now back to school, it is more important than ever to carry on with healthy hydration habits from the long, hot days of summer. The human body is made up of 50% water, in order to achieve peak hydration needs, kids (ages 4-8) require five cups of water per day and kids (ages 8+) require 7-8 cups per day. “Unfortunately water is not the most tasty or easy to drink liquid so often we substitute it with other things such as milk, sports drinks, orange juice or fruit concentrates,” says James Mayo, Co-Founder and CEO of SOS Hydration. “These substitutions offer some hydration benefits, but also come with excessive amounts of sugar and high calories that kids don’t need. Just take a peek at the nutrition panels the next time you reach for one of these beverages. Many of these drinks disguise their contents on the front by clever marketing or small pack sizes but look at the truth panel on the side to see the amount of calories and also in many cases the amount of artificial ingredients. A carton of orange or apple juice can have 100 calories and a fruit concentrate…

I love ShapeLLX, and have loved working with them in the past, and now.  They are a grade A company, with the best Shapewear for Women!  I love their products, and am so happy to get to wear them.  I love how they shape me, and provide me with added stability.  These products are the best in the business.  You don’t know what you are missing, until you order from them, and receive the wonderful merchandise. The plus size shapewear is what I wear, fearlessly!  My husband loves it, and is always giving me added comments about how wonderful it makes me look.  I can’t get over the amazing shape I have with this wonderful Shapewear.  This shapewear is simply the best, and with me being plus size, fits super fine.  My ego has never been so high!  I will never go to another company for this fabulous shapewear.  When we dress up to go places, I always throw my shapewear on, and get so many added compliments on how wonderful I look, and asked if I lost weight. Next, let’s talk about the best shapewear for women!  It’s super fine, and extravagant.  Never before seen so supreme.  The above shapewear,…
