Making Better Blog Videos! Help!

For years I've been saying it but in 2012 I'm going to make it happen. I'm going to learn how to make better videos!

Easy Cheese Quesadillas with VELVEETA® and Ro*Tel® Recipe!

The holiday's have been crazy and between gourmet meals and fancy desserts it made it difficult to actually think about the every day meals. Since the kids were on break I still had to think about lunches for them. Since my sink was already full of dishes and my fridge filled with ingredients I needed them to be simple and quick. I knew I would be making recipes using VELVEETA® and Ro*Tel® so when … [Read more...]

Our Family Traditions This Holiday – Join in the Conversation with #InDelight for a Chance to win a $200 TargetGift Card!

I didn't grow up with traditions. Well, unless you count putting up a tree every year. I think it also results in the fact that I don't really remember any specific Christmas from my childhood. I don't want that for my boys. I want them to reflect back on their childhood and remember all the years we spent together as a family and remember the little things that made each year and moment stand … [Read more...]

The Absent Parent

It wasn’t that I had a bad parent, I just had a young parent. Actually both my parents are young. My mom was only a junior in high school when she had me and she, herself, grew up in a horrible home life setting. Her father was absent and her mom was mentally absent. She learned how to raise herself and get things she needed on her own. So, naturally when she became a mom at 16 it was her … [Read more...]

What Is On My Christmas List?

Every year I get the same thing 'What do you want for Christmas?' and every year I answer the same thing 'I dunno'. Yet every year I have a list of wants but I can just never be the type of girl to say this, this, and this when it concerns me. Why is that? When it comes to ou kids we can usually tell each family member a list for each child and make sure that no one gets duplicates. Tell them … [Read more...]

Virus Attack & A Change Of Plans!

Late last night I caught a really bad virus. One that immediately started shutting down programs. I freaked out as I've had viruses before but nothing like that!

After many failed attempts in safe mode and several "free effective … [Read more...]
