January 3, 2018 by Sarah McFrugalPants Leave a Comment

I grew up as a “teacher kid”, which meant I went to the school where my mom taught. I was there before and after school every single day and often didn’t leave until 5 pm when mom finally called it a night. I can remember desperately scavenging in her classroom for food once the afternoon bell rang. … [Read more...]

Mantra: I Will Not Feel Guilty

July 10, 2014 by Sonya Leave a Comment

I often feel guilty about so many things. Not packing fruit all the time in the kids' lunch bags. Not making the bed first thing in the morning.

Taste of Nature Review

February 10, 2014 by UrbanMoms 57 Comments

I wrote a few weeks ago about how Taste of Nature had challenged me to replace one snack a day with a Taste of Nature bar. I've been incorporating these bars into my days very easily, and you're unlikely to find me without one in my purse when I'm out and about. I've had them sitting in the arena … [Read more...]

My wife and I take off for Cape Breton tomorrow. We are very excited but also a little anxious; it’s a long, long drive.

Every Lunch Hour I Go On A Guilt Trip

July 17, 2013 by Ryan 1 Comment

I'm the kind of guy that eats a lot of the same thing day in and day out. A few years ago when I was trying to lose weight I ate a quarter chicken with salad (balsamic vinaigrette on the side) for 4 straights months. Turned out it worked. I lost around 18 pounds. I credit my OCD and bland palate to … [Read more...]
