Stop & Shop’s Buy Local Program :  Locally Sourced Produce

Stop & Shop’s Buy Local Program : Locally Sourced Produce

This post is Sponsored by Stop & Shop but my opinions are 100% my own! There is nothing better than fresh fruits & veggies in the summer.  I have a small garden and enjoy going out there each day to pick some vegetables to toss into my salad.  I could spend hours out there, but my garden is small due to lack of space so really it only takes me moments.  I'm limited with what I can grow but I'm grateful to live in an area that has plenty of farms to get other fresh veggies and fruits from.   But even better is now I've learned that Stop & Shop buys locally through their Buy Local Program and items such as potatoes come from Young Family Farm in Little Compton, Rhode Island.  We...

ANT-MAN Director Peyton Reed & Producer and President of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige

ANT-MAN Director Peyton Reed & Producer and President of Marvel Studios Kevin Feige

Disclosure: I received an all expense paid trip to Los Angeles California for the #AntManEvent Press Junket.  All opinions are my own and were not swayed by any outside sources! Last month as the press junket for Ant-Man, we also interviewed Peyton Reed and Kevin Feige.  They walked in together and immediately I got the sense that they were  good friends.  I imagine they probably are at this point after working closely together on Ant-Man. Peyton Reed, a life long fan of Marvel films and comic books, directed Ant-Man.  This was his first movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and I think he was a great choice!  Kevin Feige is the president of Marvel Studios and also the producer on...

10 Fun Facts about Marvel’s Ant-Man which is in Theaters Today! #AntManEvent

Disclosure: I received an all expense paid trip to Los Angeles California for the #AntManEvent press Junket.  All opinions are my own and were not swayed by any outside sources! I have been dying for today to come ever since I saw a press screening of Marvel's Ant-Man last month in LA.  I have been dying to see it again and to take my family.  I wanted to tell them all about it but I couldn't because I really wanted them to experience it themselves.  And tonight they are finally going to see it.

Add Libby’s® Fruits to your Summer Recipes & a Giveaway

Disclosure: This post has been sponsored by Libby's.  All opinions are mine alone and have not be swayed by outside sources. "Mom, I'm hungry!" If I had even a dime for every time I heard those words this summer, I'd be living the good life!   And it's only been a couple of weeks.  My kids, and their friends who are over my house most days, are consistently asking for something to eat.   I like to blame it on boredom, but they are seldom bored.  Perhaps they are all going through growth spurts this summer, I don't know, but I need to stock up on some healthy snacks and satisfying meals to curb their appetites.  Or I may go insane! Thankfully my girls love fruit!  While they also love...

Hear what Corey Stoll thought about the Yellow Jacket Suit in Ant-Man #AntManEvent

Hear what Corey Stoll thought about the Yellow Jacket Suit in Ant-Man #AntManEvent

Disclosure: I received an all expense paid trip to Los Angeles California for the #AntManEvent press Junket.  All opinions are my own and were not swayed by any outside sources! Every action movie has to have a bad guy or a villain. It's what makes the plot exciting and what keeps the audience on the edge of their seat.  While this bad guy or villain isn't always the popular guy in town, he's still an important part of the movie.   He also needs to have a good, strong actor behind him, if he wants to be effective.  You'd think that the person who plays the villain drew the short straw.  But that is not the case for Corey Stoll who plays Darren Cross a.k.a. "Yellow Jacket" in Ant-Man.  "I...

McDonald’s Lobster Roll is Back In New England

  Disclosure: This post has been compensated by McDonald's.  All opinions are mine alone and have not be swayed by outside sources. The kids have been out of school for 2 weeks now and we have been nonstop since then.  There is always somewhere to go and something to do in the summertime.  And then after we are done and home, they are outside and in the pool!  Needless to say, I pretty much collapse at the end of each day. McDonald's Lobster Roll is Back In New England When we are on the go and out of the house for most of the day, we almost always stop and grab lunch somewhere quick.  The last thing I want to do on a warm day, is sit inside too long at a restaurant.  Our go to place...
