Let's Go To The Fair!

It's that time of year again! Kids are all heading back to school and we are finally getting ourselves back into a somewhat normal routine. Grocery lists have shrunk enabling us to put a little money back for the Tennessee State Fair! We have made the state fair a family event for as long as I can remember and it just gets better every year! 

Did you know the Tennessee State Fair has been held every year (with the exception of the 4 year span during World War II) since 1906!! The fair has entertained Tennessee families for more than 100 years. It attracts more than 230,000 visitors annually. 

TSF Apple Pie (homebox-noLottery)

There are some big things going on this year including the Tennessee Two-Crust Apple Pie Contest! (Seriously considering turning my Apple Dumpling Recipe into a pie form for this one!) Winner will receive $500 and the Tennessee State Fair Award! I don't know about you but I could definitely use that to put back into the grocery budget. Teenagers can EAT!

My four teens are most excited about the rides of course! I have yet to see a coaster that they will not get on. While my husband can't wait to get in on all the Funnel Cakes! Who doesn't like funnel cakes right? Me, I'm most excited about the memories to be made with my young family. I hope they will remember these days just like I did when I was a kid at the fair and continue the tradition with their families!

Kalorik Steam Mop Review and Giveaway Ends 1-26-13

I recently had the pleasure of working with  Kalorik  and do a review of their  Kalorik Steam Mop . This couldn't have came at a better time. I'm in the "New Year, New You" mode right now and there are lots of things I want to change. Harsh Chemical use is one of those things. The Kalorik Steam Mop works off of ordinary tap water! No detergents, soaps or chemicals needed! You can use the Kalorik Steam Mop to clean linoleum, ceramic tile, stone, marble, carpet, sealed hardwood, parquet and more! It's also very light weight and easy to use! I spoke with Kalorik via email on a Wednesday morning, and less than 48 hours my product arrived via FedEx! Two Thumbs Up! Upon arrival, it took all of 10 minutes to have it open, put together, and ready to use. It came with 2 small screws to attach the base to the actual cleaner, throw a microfiber pad on the base and we were ready to steam! I have hardwood flooring in my entire house so floor care is not something t...
