Farm Rich Product {Review}

As a Mom there are times when I wish I could just pop something into the oven and have it be done in time for guests that come over--or even for a fast and easy snack when time is non-existent. Bonus points if it's a no fuss food that requires minimal prep time and at the same time tastes delicious.

I recently got the opportunity to try Farm Rich's Cheese Sticks. We're huge cheese stick fans in my home--Isabella goes crazy for them and they are a rare treat for us. Farm Rich did not disappoint. Their Cheese Sticks are made with 100% mozzarella, have 0 gms trans fat and are a great source of calcium and protein. They were easy to prepare and tasted delicious! With a cook time of only 5-6 minutes it was definitely the perfect snack on a rainy weekend afternoon.

Farm Rich has so many different ideas on their site for easy recipes, fun for kids and adults. Whether you're little one is hosting a sleepover party, you're having a birthday party for someone, or you are running late in the morning...they have it all! You can also click here to get a coupon for 75 cents off your next Farm Rich product! With their prices already very reasonable this is a great deal!

Thank you to Farm Rich who provided a coupon for me to try the Cheese Sticks. No other compensation was given.

{Ex} Lawn Mower Virgin...

Would you believe me if I told you that I have never mowed before? I'm serious. Never ever ever. It always scared me. I guess you could say that my parents did a pretty good job of telling me how dangerous lawn mowers are--I was afraid to go near one in fear that I would lose a foot. Or two.

But my fear disappeared today. Oh, yes it did! Because guess what I did...

Uh-huh-uh-huh! I mowed! The front yard--I'll do the backyard tomorrow...which, by the way, is smaller than our front yard...

I set out to just read on my front porch. I'll tell y'all what book I'm reading in another post--this post is the celebration of me being a lawn mowing momma!

Back to what I was saying. I had already washed and straightened my hair for the day, had an ice cold Diet Coke and my book. I sat there for a moment and decided to do some raking up of old mulch to make room for our new mulch that's on my to-do list.

I looked around the yard and thought, I'm going to mow this yard! And I did. It wasn't nearly as hard as I imagined it to be. It was actually a lot of fun--and it reminded me of vacuuming, except harder.

I'm so proud of myself! I'm surprised I didn't come in to the house with a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat on my face and pop open an ice cold beer.

On second thought? That doesn't sound bad at all...

I Dream of Greasy Food. And Margaritas.

Today I've been daydreaming about food and alcohol--and not necessarily in that order. Now, don't ask me why I've been sitting here thinking of margaritas, greasy burgers and Mexican food. I have no idea why and obviously I have issues this morning.

I'm blaming my cold medication...that can cause this sort of thing. You didn't know that? It does--feel free to use my excuse anytime.

You're welcome.

Here is a list of foods that I have wanted for the past two hours. Yes, that means this all started at or around 9 this morning. Lord help me.

*Presidente margaritas from Chili's. Yes, that's plural and yes they sound delish...

*A cheeseburger from Five Guys Burgers & Fries. What?! You've never had one? Go. Go now. If you don't have one plan a trip down to my little town and I'll personally take you.

*Fajitas. Chicken. Lots of guac. Enough said.

*French fries from Five Guys Burgers & Fries. Again, out of this world.

*Margaritas from my fave little Mexican restaurant. Yummy & cheap. The best kind.

That's it. My food dreams of today. Hoping to fulfill at least one of these cravings today...I'm not even picky on which one I get--nice, huh? 


*Leo, if you're reading this? I'll be the happiest wife ever. Just sayin'...*
