French's tomato ketchup with no high fructose corn syrup



I am super excited about companies like French's stepping up and making their customers happy. We have always enjoyed French's products but now we have a new reason to love their products like this one French's tomato ketchup. This ketchup has no preservatives, no artificial colors or flavors, is non GMO, and the best part there is no High Fructose Corn Syrup.

This makes me one happy mama and my family give it thumbs up for taste. We all agreed it taste more like tomato and less like a sweetened tomato. This is great for baking and using in recipes. You would be surprised by what you can add ketchup too. For us ketchup is mainly used as a condiment on hot dogs, french fries, burgers, and meatloaf.

What do you use ketchup on or in?

Binval Photo Clip String Lights



So excited to hang these up. For the Holiday we will hang our cards on them, then after the holidays we will use them for pictures, art work, etc. These remind me of one of my favorite shows where they use something like this to communicate with each other.

Easy to use just add 3 AA batteries per set this one comes with two sets with 15 clips on each string. It has a timer and several modes. I like the combination the best for the Holidays. Now to get some nails so we can hang these right. We have just moved in so not everything is here nor will it fit but I have certainly not seen any of my husbands tools so will have to pick up some small nails as tacks will not go into our walls without hammering them in.

I have really sparse eyelashes that are really short and light in color. I was looking for an answer to now wearing glue to put on false lashes. For me these did not work well because of the short lashes it just looked like I had eyelashes on half of my eyes. 

When my daughter tried these that made her eyes look more awesome then they already were. She was blessed with long thick lashes that even these lashes made look more dramatic. She was totally in love. 

For starters make sure you have a good mirror and tweezers. It takes a while to get the hand of but once you do they will go on more quickly. I love the compact to store them in between use, a great must have to keep track of them.

I love not having to buy glue for her anymore. As for me I am hoping that these companies making the 3D magnetic lashes make wider lashes soon for people like me who need help big time. For now I will be back to using lengthening mascara. 

For those who have lashes but want a more dramatic look the Websun 3D magnetic lashes can be found at my affiliate link below.

Organizing small objects


We recently moved and with that comes a new way of storing and organizing things around your home. That goes even for the smallest items like jewelry, beads, small toys, etc. With a storage box like this one from Lasten they have you covered with 36 adjustable sections you can leave it as it or remove the partitions to make larger spots for larger items. 

Every time we bring home a new organizing item we think we have planned what goes inside by many time the kids will find just as many uses for it as we had already thought up. This one is going to be used for my daughters necklaces. 

This organization box from Lasten can be found at my affiliate link below.

Keep Warm



With growing girls we are always trying to find clothes that will grow with them. One of our favorite items are leggings. They are forgiving and can often be worn when they are a little bigger and then later when they fit just right and if you are frugal you can even make them into shorts when they become too short. 

These leggings from S.G Style really surprised me. They are sized at s/m in womens but they fit my 10 year old with room to grow and they also fit my 14 year old who is much taller perfectly. I love how they have a lining that gives extra warmth during the cold months. Great for wearing with your favorite sweater, or shirts, and just as well for exercises like running. 

These pants are 92% Nylon and 8% Spandex Fleece. My girls both say they are very comfortable. The S.G Style leggings are available at my affiliate link below.
