Strawberry Sunday
Yesterday the theme was strawberries. Seemed everywhere I looked there was a photo or a recipe or a song playing. I did’nt have anything planned and so I asked my daughter if she’d like to come over for lunch. Just happened that my son in law was at a fantasy football party and so she agreed. My mom was so surprized when she found a full house after Sunday Mass. Love when that happens.
Vera told me not to make a fuss, we can call out for Chinese food. So, I ran to the market and got some things to pick on and dessert. I called my sister Marianne and my niece Sandra to join us. My sister came over but Sandra was working.
After we finished eating I took the kids and Miss Penny out on the stoop for a while. It was pretty hot out there, but the kids get antsy in the house.
The kids love Miss Penny and she likes them, though they can drive her pretty crazy. So I really have to watch her when they are around.
Next thing (most important) in order is dessert!!! Ice cream, pound cake and strawberries, something I know the kids would help make. So while the ice cream was softening, my little chefs handed me strawberries to cut up, and they thought I did’nt see them pop a few in their mouth.
Natalie and Liam got a kick when I told them that their mom used to help me make this when she was a little girl. This is a long time favorite dessert around here. So easy and so good. a real crowd pleaser 🙂

Gerber Training Pants

Oh, Gerber baby!
Gerber it’s not only baby food…this I recently found out. When I hear the name Gerber I immediately think of baby food…see when my kids were little (toddlers), I fed them Gerber baby food…my favorite was banana (Yes, my favorite)…one for you, and then one for me…that was the game we played.
I was so thrilled to find that Gerber makes more than baby food now.
Gerber has a line of children’s wear http://www.gerberchildrenswear.com/.
OK, I might be behind the times…
I started checking out the training pants from Gerber for my grandson Christian. Christian is a little over two and is getting ready to say bye, bye diaper and hello underwear…Oh, he is going to be such a big boy now …
HATE THAT!
Now that Christian is in the training stage, what better training pants to get then Gerber Training pants.
Gerber Training pants are:
- Soft cotton inside and outside with a built-in, absorbent interlining for extra protection throughout the day
- A soft covered elastic waistband for increased comfort
- Durable, washable and reusable for multiple uses
- 100% cotton panels with an absorbent interlining
- Machine washable
Even though no more diapers makes Christian a big boy…Gerber Training pants still give him that little boy look…

Wordless Wednesday!
CVS Beauty Club Getting Gorgeous Event
Saturday , Groovin Moms attended the CVS Beauty Club Getting Gorgeous Event at the Warwick Hotel in Manhattan. We were there to help out and work the swag bag table. So much energy and so many new and old friends, and all those bags which were in the room right behind us!
This is the last table visited by 600 mommy and daddy bloggers, who enjoyed the event. It was pretty non stop action all afternoon. We did manage to get some Jenny’s Cuisine popcorn
for Merci (yummy white cheddar) and I have a sweet tooth, so I enjoyed a couple of Hersheys’s Simple Pleasures (milk chocolate with chocolate creme), while we handed out the loot.
P.S. Yes, Merci wore her sunglasses all afternoon 🙂
