IHOP #CrissCroissant #KidsEatFree

August 16, 2016August 15, 2016

What a great way to spend a hot August Saturday – movies and lunch at the kids’ favorite place IHOP. I had to try the new Criss-Croissant because I heard about the 27 layers of flaky croissant dough perfectly waffled to a golden brown and stuffed with sweet and savory fillings. I picked the Spinach and Roasted Red Pepper (fluffy scrambled eggs, fresh spinach and roasted red peppers topped with white Cheddar and parmesan cheeses and a drizzle of hollandaise). This was delicious.

The three kids knew what they wanted for lunch. Macaroni and Cheese and apple sauce. Little guy got the apple juice and the older ones got the Mango Juice. Best news ever – Kids Eat Free from 4-10 p.m. daily August 1 – September 25 2016!

We were all king of full so they picked one dessert. They chose between the salted caramel and banana (cool dulce de leche cream and sliced, fresh bananas followed with a drizzle of salted caramel sauce) or the strawberries and sweet cream (filled with sweet cream cheese and topped with sweet, glazed strawberries) this is the one the kids wanted. We all shared because these things are pretty big.

These yummy Criss-Croissants and Kids Eat Free are available from August 1 – September 25. As always IHOP is a super kid friendly place and everyone always leaves happy.

Sugru: #FixThatThing

August 12, 2016August 13, 2016

Do you Sugru? Sugru is a mouldable glue, stick it, shape it, and it will turn into rubber. Sugru has a play-doh feel yet bonds to most any material and all you have to do is expose it to AIR!

Sugru comes in different colored packets: Royal Blue, Classic Red, Panther Pink, Awesome Orange, Mossy Green, Woody Brown, Sunny Yellow and Silver Grey. Assortments of colors for your color needs. Sugru can protect furniture, make cables last longer and stop a hard drive from overheating!

Sugru bonds to freezer, hot shower, outside and inside the home. I use Sugru to protect furniture for items like glass candle holders…

Sugru helped this rack in my shower. Kept slipping off bath edge. I placed some Sugru around the legs and in 24 hours Sugru turned into rubber. Sugru now keeps this slippy rack in it’s place.

Sugru is 6-in-1 – fixer, bond, cushion, replace, create, seal.

Free shipping all this week so hurry all you have to do is mold and place… Sugru!

Long Island Vineyard #PuglieseVineyards

August 11, 2016August 11, 2016

Spending a few days in the Hamptons was what our family needed. We did nothing really spectacular. But we did want to visit a Long Island Winery. We all set out to the the winery on our First day. Pugliese Vineyards was the pick.

We purchased two bottles of wine, a bottle of red and a bottle of white. Now, I’m not a white wine sipper but have to admit both red and white were a pallet delight. This vineyard was a good choice to spend some time, and we were blessed with a beautiful day to relish Pugliese beauty.

We finally settled on the spot we would sit at so we could enjoy the view as we sipped our vino and munched on the goodies we brought with us.

We spent our first day in the Hamptons at a winery. Love the day.

Blame It On The Movies – The Reel Music Of Hollywood #MadisonTheatre #KathrynCrosby

August 10, 2016August 2, 2016

There isn’t anything I love to do more than to watch my grandchildren doing what they love to do best. Natalie is a song and dance girl and I am so proud of her latest show “Blame It On The Movies – The Reel Music Of Hollywood at the Madison Theatre starring Kathryn Crosby.

Some of the songs Kathryn Crosby sang were “You’ll Never Know” and “The Second Time Around” both favorite songs of mine. I loved the way she sang “My Foolish Heart” She is a class act.

Natalie and the children sang Blame It On The Movies, Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas, Make Way For Tomorrow, Ding Dong, The Witch Is Dead, Woody Woodpecker Song and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Let’s Hear It For The Boy.

Great grandma and both grandmas were so happy that night. We wanted to dance and sing along and wouldn’t miss it. You should never forget to dance and sing!!

My sister also came and here she is with my two grandsons who said they enjoyed the show too.

We had a wonderful evening because all it take is one song to bring back a million memories.
