Coffee Is My Weakness and So is the New Keurig K-Duo Essentials Coffee Maker

Coffee Is My Weakness and So is the New Keurig K-Duo Essentials Coffee Maker

I haven’t been a coffee drinker for long. Once I had Arya in 2015, I became dependent on it to get me throughout the day, because you know, lack of sleep from having a newborn and all. At one point, coffee made me feel sick when I’d try it before all of that. I guess I finally built enough tolerance over time to where it no longer affects me anymore and instead gives me the energy to stay awake to take care of the kiddos.

When Mom’s Meet offered to send me the Keurig K-Duo Essentials Coffee Maker, I, of course, jumped on the opportunity. These are my thoughts and they were not influenced in any way.

Eat Nut Butters for Healthy Nutrition

Eat Nut Butters for Healthy Nutrition

All throughout most of my life, my pallet hasn’t gone beyond the normal peanut butter (which, btw, is delicious). I know, like where have I been? After I started becoming more aware of what I eat and use in my everyday life since 2015, I have discovered so much more. Essentially there are numerous kinds of nut butters, and they’re packed full of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and good fat content.

I received this product for free from Moms Meet to use and post my honest opinions.

Fun Craft Activities For the Kids to do During the Holiday Chaos!

This post is sponsored by Red Baron but the content and opinions expressed here are my own.

The holidays are kind of weird around here since I grew up doing them with my family, but my husband did not. Although I try to oblige my husband’s beliefs, I still have my own, so I feel like we need to meet somewhere in the middle at times.

Tasty Vegan Burritos From Alpha Foods

Tasty Vegan Burritos From Alpha Foods

This is a sponsored post with Alpha Foods on their new Alpha Burritos. I received Alpha Burritos for free as well as monetary compensation to review and write this post. As always, all opinions are my own and were not influenced in any way.

Back in the day, I could go through a 12 pack of frozen burritos in less than a week when I lived with my grandparents. Today, I rarely eat frozen burritos, but that doesn’t mean they still aren’t tasty, nor unhealthy.

Let’s just say I cook a little more from scratch. But, I could always use a quick and easy meal when I’m super busy, which is going to be me REAL SOON with the baby here in less than 3 weeks.

Now, if you know me, then you know I am a meat eater, but I am always open to trying to new things, even Vegan food options. I actually just tried the Alpha Vegan Burritos that come in 4 different flavors: Chick’n Fajita, Pizza, Philly Sandwich and Mexicali. They each have 11g of protein, are GMO-free and are 100% plant-based.

What Do You Feed a Picky Baby/Toddler?

What Do You Feed a Picky Baby/Toddler?

 

 

If you figure it out, let me know…

No really. My 2-year-old daughter is a dairy lovin’, carb stuffin’, peanut butter and fruit crammin’ machine. Oh, and of course a chocolate fiend. Those food groups are pretty much what I can get her to eat right now, IF that.

When I can, I try to sneak the veggies (which she instantly finds on her plate) into a smoothie; that way she never knows and she gets the nutrients and vitamins she needs to power through her day.

The one thing I can get her to eat without a fuss, though, is HappyBaby Baby’s First Whole Milk Yogurt. She loves it because it tastes good. I love it because it has no added sweeteners, contains vitamin d, probiotics, protein, vitamins and is USDA Certified Organic. It’s the perfect food for 6 months and on up!
