Kids Eat Free Days
My cousin Jocelyn sent me this awesome list today of a bunch of restaurants where kids can eat free and on which days they can eat free! Some restrictions are noted and always check with the restaurant to make sure the offer still applies and for any other restrictions. If you have more kids than adults or are a single parent with multiple children, sometimes you can talk to the restaurant ahead of time and they can work a deal out with you.

Take Them A Meal
Whenever a friend of mine has a baby I always like to bring them a meal when they are home and accepting visitors. It's just one less thing to worry about as you acclimate to your new life and schedule. It's hard enough trying to find time to even shower with a brand new baby in the house, especially if you have other children, let alone trying to find the block of time and energy needed to cook a homemade meal. The meal is not only helpful to the mom, I do it for the dad as well. If the new mommy is lucky enough to have a husband like mine who would take over/do the cooking while the family adjusts, it's nice for the dad to not have to worry about meals either and just focus on his expanded family.
I belong to an amazing church and over the past couple years have come into a circle of amazing friends who are also amazing mothers. When I had Aiden, these fantastic ladies arranged for meals to be brought to me when we got home. People volunteered and one lady coordinated everything and we had meals brought to us every night for over a week. And these meals were sooo yummy! (isn't food you don't have to cook always just a little more yummy anyway? I think so!). These women truly loved on us and their kindness was such a blessing!
Recently, maybe even when I was on Facebook, I came across a website called TakeThemAMeal that is a free site that does all the arranging and coordinating for you!! The site allows you to enter in the new mommy's name and info as well as a place to give meal delivery instructions including what foods they like or dislike. Then you pick a start and end date for the deliveries. Next, the person who created the page for the new mommy simply email invites anyone interested in delivering a meal to view the page. When you are invited to view the page/sign up for a delivery date, you do not have to sign up for anything, you don't get anything sent to you, all the invite is is a link to the page along with the password needed to view the page (it's kept private to protect the family's info). Then, if that invited person so chooses, they pick which date they would like to bring a meal on and there's even space to list what you might be bringing- which is great when trying to decide which meal to make. That way you don't end up with 8 spaghetti dishes. Before this site, it was up to the person coordinating deliveries to assign people dates and help clarify who was bringing what. But with TakeThemAMeal.com, the coordinator spends literally 20 minutes filling in info on a page and sends out an email and the coordinator is done. People sign up on their own and contact the recipient family directly to confirm delivery times.
I am currently doing this for two mommies (sisters actually, due with baby #3 and #1 respectively!). I am in love with this website!!
So please, if you know any expecting mommies, BRING THEM A MEAL!! Even if you don't have time to cook, or don't enjoy it, bring them a pizza from their favorite place, or pick up a lasagna from your grocery store that they can heat up. If you're a parent, you know how amazing the gift of a meal is.
THIS SITE IS NOT SOLELY FOR NEW PARENTS!! This site is simply a meal delivery coordinating site. If you know of anyone who is ill, bedridden, elderly, or simply going through a time when having meals brought to them would be beneficial, this site is what you need. You can even set it up so meals can be brought multiple times a day!
What kind of meal would you bring to a new mommy/daddy?

Baby Greeting from the President
For all you new parents out there, would you like the President to send you/your baby a personal congratulations? All you have to do is send a birth announcement (either one you sent when your child was born, or a simple letter) with your child's name, address and birthday to:
White House Greetings Office Room 39
Washington, DC 20500
Or FAX to: 202-395-1232
Washington, DC 20500
Or FAX to: 202-395-1232
I first heard about this from this web site and I did this for both of my children. You get a nice card from the White House! It's a very cool keepsake for the baby book. Now I know not everyone may be politically aligned with the current president, but you can't change which President is in office (once they're in office) when your child is born, so why not at least get something cool and free LOL!!
I don't have a picture of either of mine off hand but here is what one looks like. This pic I found online and is actually a marriage congratulatory message, but the birth ones look almost the same. Your greeting will of course have the current President and First Lady on it:

HOMEMADE (YES REALLY!!) MICROWAVE POPCORN
Our family LOVES popcorn. "REAL" popcorn is made on the stove, in a pan, with lots of butter and salt :) But when you don't have the time (or if you're like me and don't have a good popcorn pan) it's always nice to have microwave popcorn on hand. The problem for me is 1) it's costs a lot when you look at the ingredients and 2) I HATE that oily coating in your mouth from all that artificial stuff. Plus all the butter on "real" popcorn, and all the artificial and unhealthy ingredients in most microwave popcorn just leaves me feeling guilty and sometimes with an upset stomach afterwards.
Then, one day I saw on Food Network's show "Good Eats" that you could very easily make your own microwave popcorn at home. Alton Brown, the host, discusses it here [I left out the jalapeno seasoning, but add your own- experiment!] It's quick and easy and cheap!
Ingredients:
1 lunch size brown paper bag
1 paper plate (or other microwavable plate, but I find paper works best)
1/4 c yellow popcorn kernels (white work ok, but aren't as big and fluffy as yellow)
2 Tbs olive/canola oil
salt (or seasoning of your choice, I love Lawry's seasoning salt)
stapler [yes, trust me, it will be fine!!]
Recipe:
1. Place popcorn into the bag, add oil, shake slightly to coat.
2. Add in your seasoning- more than you would expect as a lot will stick to the bag- and shake again slightly to distribute salt/seasoning. [Adding your seasoning now will make it stick to the popcorn during cooking as afterwards your popcorn will be too dry for seasoning to stick. Yes, you could add butter if you want, but I like that this is healthier!!]
3. Fold over the top of the bag 1" and staple twice.
4. Place bag on the paper plate (I lay the bag on it's side) and microwave for 2-3 minutes. Mine is done in 2, but just like all microwaves will vary, just listen for the popping to slow down but not to stop completely.
5. Open CAREFULLY!! It will be very hot and steamy!
6. Pour into a bowl and enjoy!
Once you try this recipe, I don't see how you can go back to store-bought microwave popcorn again!! And this recipe leaves lots of room for experimenting with flavors. You could even use all organic ingredients. If you are like our family, movie night will take multiple bags ♥
I dare you to try it!! Tell me what you think!

Target REDCard
Here is my shameless plug for the Target REDcard. If you are like me and shop often at Target, you may want to look into their REDcard if you have not already! It is available in a debit card (it links directly to your bank account just like a normal debit card, for use ONLY at Target, no fees attached) or a credit card. I chose the debit card as I did not want a credit card- but that is my personal choice.
When you use your REDcard you automatically get 5% off your purchase= FREE money (as long as it's the debit card or you are paying your credit card balance off and not incurring interest). PLUS, you can designate a local school (or I guess any school on the list) to receive 1% donation from your purchases. My daughter's school was on the list so now for everything I buy using my REDcard debit card, I get 5% off and her school gets 1%. [This donation is NOT tax deductible btw]
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE read ANY and ALL information before you sign up for this or any debit or credit card. Read the fine print! See what they say about overdrafts, fees, interest rates etc. Make sure you really want this and it's right for your family. I did my research and found this would be beneficial for us, and that is why I am sharing because maybe it can help save you some money too.
