You can make frozen yogurt. Just put your favorite yogurt in them, freeze, then pop a few out to eat. Yummy!

I save them. I have one small tin for each child’s teeth. It’s a small tin, about the size of the Altoids Mini tins (which would also work perfectly!).

Very helpful...thanks!

It’s one of my favorites, but I drink it iced and slightly sweetened. Have you tried that, or is there any chance that way would help you choke it down? Lol

Do you have the long tail tanks? Or is it the regular long tail short sleeve tee? I’m really interested in these, but I’ve never tried their stuff and I’m not sure on the sizing! Any sizing tips?

This is exactly what I do. :) unfortunately, they usually get old and tossed. But it’s not very often that I buy something that is just too gross for any of us to finish. ETA: Harney & Sons Blueberry Green Tea is one of my two favorite teas. :)

1) This sheet pan. Love it! Bought my first a couple of years ago, and just ordered a second one for myself. I’ve bought them for my mom and grandmother and they love them also! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0001MS3P6/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1515849580&sr=8-2&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=volrath+cookie+sheets&dpPl=1&dpID=31d5xIPpuqL&ref=plSrch 2) Injinji toe socks (yay! No more blisters!)

Oh goodness...there are just so many. 😳 I read so many threads about shopping (they’re my favorite!), then I go buy the stuff. 😆 Just off the top of my head: Sleeveless tanks from Walmart (ktgrok?) Freedom no-pull dog harnesses (hornblower) Frixion erasable pens Fiesta dishes (bethben?) The Sweet Smell of Christmas book Sum Swamp One of those egg steamer things Mozartkugeln chocolate Keen sandals Ebag Travel cube things And more...😂 ETA: And I’m about to buy a Snuggle Pedic pillow!

I agree. ^^^

The best thing I ever did to get rid of cracked winter hands was to change my hand soap. I now use Dr Bonner’s unscented castille soap mixed with water in a reusable foam soap pump. I put in two TBS castille soap and about 1/2 tsp of grape seed oil, then fill with water. It has helped A TON! For cracked hands, O’Keefs (sp?) working hands is really good. I also like aveeno eczema *cream* for babies.

My favorite for my sensitive skin is CeraVe PM. I use it morning and night.

Love this thread! I’m currently researching and scouring the web looking for rain boots. But I want them to be *comfortable*, not clunky, to look like rain boots (not stealth waterproof), and not furry-warm. *sigh* I try to find these magical shoes every year about this time. I start looking this time of year at vacation ideas for the upcoming spring/summer. I’m about to re-read the WTM section on the middle grades. I’m stalling because I want to pretend our Christmas break is going to last forever.

My favorite is spinach, dried cranberries, pecans, feta, and balsamic vinaigrette (white if available). It’s a very pretty salad and tastes delicious!

Chocolate Babka. It’s not seasonal. You can get this deliciousness all year. :)

We like frozen grapes.

Headphones Maybe a neck pillow for the boys as a mermaid blanket equivalent? This wouldn’t be for the actual trips, but how about one of those USA scratch-off maps? I bought one this year for a family member and it looks like it’s pretty cool. :) https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06XD7MRLN/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1513541508&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=usa+scratch+off+map&dpPl=1&dpID=61aTPGfFSXL&ref=plSrch I bought this one, but there are many options.

Board games. Afternoon movie at the theater. That’s what we like. :)

With those parameters, I’d probably go with a purse or coat/jacket. I don’t ‘need’ any of those things, but I could find something I like in those categories. :) Like this: https://www.rriveter.com/collections/view-all/products/otto-riverside-canvas-brown-leather-handbag-2 Or this: https://m.llbean.com/product.html?bc=12-27-610&skCatId=88143&csp=f#88143

Wal-Mart gift card, $50. Done. 😂

Sheet set. Newest Grisham book.

My favorite part of Christmas morning was always my stocking when I was young, and it’s still my favorite. I’m not sure why it was/is...🤔 I think I just liked the things like body wash, lotions, lip gloss...all the little, cool assortment of stuff in a cool package—a sock! Therefore, I really, really enjoy filling my kids’ stockings. We don’t do big, expensive stuff, but it’s fun to find neat, unique stuff. Santa fills the stockings, so I do have to be careful to not put really obvious things in there. We had the bigger stockings growing up and I just loved sticking my arm in there searching for stuff. Lol It’s so funny how traditions vary in each family. I was so surprised when at my first Christmas with my inlaws, I saw that they had these tiny stockings and my MIL would just put the ‘stuffers’ in a gift bag and say ‘Here’s your stocking stuffers!’ What?!!! 😵 But, but, they’re not stuffed in a stocking?!!! She’s a sweet woman, but this is just crazy. 😂

I have this same problem! My favorite right now to wear with my bootcut or straight leg jeans are Vans. Not the normal ones, but ones like these. https://www.dsw.com/en/us/product/vans-atwood-lo-sneaker---womens/287238?cm_mmc=CSE-_-GPS-_-G_Shopping_Athletic%20&%20Sneaker-_-New_Athletic%20&%20Sneaker&cadevice=m&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgOOwnc-O2AIVzUoNCh0YtwWvEAQYASABEgI1sfD_BwE Of course, this is casual, fleece-type day to day outfits. If I need nicer, I have ankle boots with a small heel. ETA: I wear wool socks with them if I need warmth.

I do the ham and egg cups like JudoMom linked and they don’t stick if you use non-stick spray. Maybe because the ham is lining the cup, not the egg? Anyway, they’re my favorite because I like more of a hard-boiled type egg than the scrambled egg versions.

I ordered a level of Math U See to try for my DS. After opening it and watching some of the DVD lessons, I decided it was not the right level. I called and a very nice lady helped me return it, and replace it with the correct level. She was so friendly and I was glad to have someone specific to call if anything went wrong with the return. She even gave me a discount I was eligible for, even though I didn’t know and didn’t get it on the first order. So pleased with my first dealings with this company!

Well, if they like a competitive game, a favorite around here is Sorry. I know it’s an oldie, not super strategic, but man, does it get talking and laughing going on in our house! If I’m being totally honest, heated tempers too. :) But I have competitive boys, so ymmv. It’s one that I like playing with them, too, and it’s the most fun with 4 players.
