This Frugal Family

Shapellx.com is a great online store, and their products are delightful.  Sarah, my 22 year old, daughter, loves the shape wear.  She says it fits perfectly, and it doesn’t make her feel like she’s unable to breathe. The high waist shaping shorts are wonderful.  They even come in Plus Size, perfect for me. The shorts will fit anybody, depending on which pair you get.  The pair, shown above, are Plus size for example, and they are very attractive looking.  Sarah loves them, too, because they lift her behind.  She’s not a Plus Size girl, but they fit her, and me, both.  They are awesome, and the fact that they aren’t uncomfortable, like most shape wear, is amazing. The shaping Bodysuits for women are the bomb.  My daughter loves this tummy tucking suit, shown above.  She can’t get enough of it, she’s going to school to be a teacher, and she wears it, to teach, every day.  There is a nude colored one, that she wears constantly.  The nude looks good, under anything.  This bodysuit has made all the difference in making her look like a supermodel.  She’s not really a big girl, but now she looks really thin.  I can’t wait to get a bodysuit, for myself,…

My 22 year old, daughter, read I Don’t Like To Eat Ants to her class just the other day.  The second graders loved it.  They had a discussion about the book, and really enjoyed hearing Sarah read it.  With just 29 pages, the lesson was a great one.  She said the kids were still talking about it today. My 8 year old, son, loved the book too.  He has read it 3 times, over the last few weeks.  He says he can’t get enough of the Anteaters.  “Too cute!” he says. “I don’t like to eat ants,” said Anteater One. “They don’t taste very good, and they tickle my tongue…” Anteater One is one adventurous eater. He’ll try anything – a grilled cheese sandwich, a nice salad, or a chocolate cake – but he’s eaten his last ant. Anteater Two only wants ants to eat. Anteater Three has the perfect solution: a reservation at his world-famous Peanut Butter & Jelly Deli, where the anteaters can discuss the very important question of what to eat for lunch. Sabine Mielke’s beautiful, stylized illustrations accompany JTK Belle’s rhyming, laugh-out-loud text, in this charming, relatable, story with a timeless message about the importance of trying…

I love Aladdin, so watching Disney’s Live-Action Aladdin was a no brainer.  I love Will Smith as the Genie.  He put on one heck of a show.  And, Jasmine was pretty cool too.  Then there was Aladdin, great actor, great portrayal.  I loved sitting down with my 22 year old, daughter, and 8 year old, son, to watch this Disney movie.  I remember watching the original, cartoon, back in the 90s.  This made me think of that, only with my next generation. Experience the thrilling live-action adaptation of the characters and tale you know and love from Disney’s animated classic. The cinematic celebration of Disney’s ALADDIN is “an entertaining magic carpet ride for fans old and new” (Sean Keane, CNET). My family, and I, will sit down again, and again, to watch this movie.  I loved it, and it couldn’t have been done any better.  The Bloopers, Deleted Scenes, and extras, make it worth it’s weight in gold, as well.  We laughed so hard at the Bloopers.  Can’t wait to watch them again.

I recently tried the Arm & Hammer Fruit & Veggie wash.  It cleaned my fruit, in a breeze.  I loved how clean the fruit came, even without water.  It safely removed any pesticides, soil, or wax that was on my son’s apple.  It cleaned it well, and fast.  No taste, or odor from the Fruit & Vegetable wash, either.  The cleaning solution is a mixture of baking soda, salt, and plant-derived cleaning agents.  I will definitely be buying this product again. Features include: Safely eliminates over 90% of pesticide residue* Cleans 4x better than water alone* Removes wax and soil Free from harsh chemicals Leaves no taste or odor Gluten-free and vegan You will see the difference, when you wash the produce.  You can tell your produce is dirty, before spraying, then all the sudden, when you spray, it becomes so clean.  It’s a great product to keep around the house, for fast and easy cleaning of fruits and vegetables.
