Healthy Cinnamon Toast Recipe
Yesterday evening, my doorbell rang. We never have anyone visit, so I knew it was either UPS or Fedex. When Hawk opened the door, I saw this huge box from Flatout! I was totally surprised when I opened the box. I knew that I'd won a giveaway, but I guess I really didn't pay that much attention to exactly WHAT was in the giveaway! (I won this from their Flatout Fresh blog - you should follow it!) So this morning, I decided to do a little HEALTHY spin on the traditional cinnamon toast that the kidlets haven't had in a…
Brandcation: Say it with me… I’m an Adventurous Blogger.

She's finally old enough to where I can let her take the reigns and take over the kitchen (as long as she remembers…

Ok, ok, yes, that's a play on words. Let me explain. Last night, we went to our cousins' house for the Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez UFC fight. The food was great, and there were chair rentals and tents set up by my cousins. After some AWESOME food and lots of mingling, it was time for the prelimbs! The men headed upstairs to the theater room, and most of the girls excused themselves to the bathroom . Cliche right? well, we weren't congregating to powder our noses, I can tell you that! Nope, this particular "Assembly of the Ladies" was actually…
