Issa’s Edible Adventures

Disclosure: This post brought to you by Issa’s Edible Adventures. All of my children learn best when technology is involved. Yes we still play boardgames, use note books and put puzzles together- but I find that they retain the knowledge better when the iPad is involved. With school out, I have been encouraging learning play for their time spent on the iPad and the first new game they tried was Issa’s Edible Adventures! Issa is a bright young girl with an adorable pig (Tartufo) for a best friend. She spends her afternoons in her moms restaurant reading cookbooks, learning about food and culture and … [Read more...]

EcoSurvivor: Outdoor Gear That Gives Back

This post is sponsored by Jasco Products. All thoughts and opinions are my own.  In our travels around the United States the majority of the time you would find us inside of an RV park. We loved staying inside RV parks because they had all the creature comforts of home that we were used to like running water, electricity and cable. However there were a few times where the palace we wanted to visit didn’t have an RV park close. For us this meant Boondocking. Boondocking is amazing! You are able to typically park far away from all other people and literally have your own slice of heaven. But you are … [Read more...]

Smarter-Seal Soda Can Covers

Summer is right around the corner, and for my family that means we will be outside more than inside! But that also means we will be battling the summer elements. I stocked up on sunscreen and bug spray for us like I do every year, but this year I have plans to protect our drinks so I got everyone a Smarter-Seal!The Smarter-Seal is an amazing can topper that I'm not sure how I lived without. We eat dinner outside fairly often and the bugs attack our canned drinks. It's like a gnat, fly and bee buffet sometimes. But not with the Smarter-Seal on our drinks! It keeps bugs away, prevents spills AND keeps my … [Read more...]

Picture Keeper – Save Your Holiday Memories!

Disclosure: This post brought to you by Picture Keeper. Pictures are so important in this day and age. No one really prints them anymore, they just store them digitally. I am guilty of storing them in "the cloud" but to be honest I have no idea what the could is! Why am I trusting all my precious memories to this? The cloud is a network of servers, and each server has a different function. Some servers deliver a service while others are responsible for storing data. “Cloud computing” means storing and accessing data and programs over the Internet instead of your computer or smartphone's hard drive. … [Read more...]
