I wrote my first letter last week and really enjoyed it and I know that it was received.  I need to get used to this snail mail part of it and just expect that it will arrive to it’s destination.  I am such a worry wort, geez really I need to take a chill pill on this.

My second letter goes to Ivlis my dear baby sister, well not really she is in her 30’s but still a baby to me.

Yummi Recipe Cheesy Baked Potato

by 4 Comments

I wanted to make Cheesy Baked Potato, but didn’t have any hamburger in the house.  My little brain got to cranking and I remembered a few chicken legs I had baked the night before, so I thought hmm.  I took the chicken and took it off the bone and added it to the Cheesy Baked Potato.  I took pictures of the chicken but they didn’t look very tasty so I decided to axe them from the post.

I did get plenty of other pics that came on very delish.

I did have three boxes but opted to make only 2 and I am glad I did because it made plenty with enough for leftovers for lunch the next day.

Review Oliver’s Labels Personalized Waterproof Labels For Kids

by 1 Comment

I was so excited to finally receive these on Saturday, February 12, the first day we have had mail service in two weeks.  My box was full but I spotted the package and opened it right away.

First thing I noticed is the bright colors and the sturdy feel to the labels.  I got a variety in my package to try with different items.  I had lots of items in my head I wanted to put them on, actually more items than I had labels available to me.  First item was my son’s jacket from school, it is often misplaced in various places. Oh dear his shoes too, and his sippy cup and his snack containers, wippy bag and more.

I love these labels they stood up to my dishwasher and the clothes label held up awesome  in the washer.  I wish I would had these available to me for my other two kids, would have saved me so much grief.

There are a variety of label designs Oliver’s Labels, we got the dinosaur one which was cute and my kid loved it.   There is also a Found-It-Tracking System that can be very useful when items are lost, click for more information on Found It Tracking System.

My kids and I just loved these labels they are hardy and did excellent with my boys ruff and tumble ways.  These will make great gifts for my girlfriends who have labeling needs.  I also thought of suggesting these to the parents at our church congregation as things in the nursery and daycare are constantly being lost.  The uses are limitless all in all I give these 10 thumbs up.  (My 7 yr olds words lol)

These are the labels in my little guys shoes after almost two weeks of wearing them.  The still look shiny and new, and he loves seeing his name in his shoe and also see the big toe it helps him with which foot the shoe goes on, isn’t that awesome.
