Between in-laws and invites, parties and presents, you’re probably very familiar with how stressful things can get around the house during the holidays.  Most families will be busy cooking and eating a lot during the holidays and heartburn is the last thing you want on the menu!

This post is Sponsored by Half Popped but my opinions are 100% my own! My family loves popcorn.  We can't go to the movies without having some, no matter what it costs.  And when they kids pop a new movie into the Blu-ray, we have to pop some popcorn.  My oldest eats every single piece in the bowl, even the half popped ones!  If I let her, she'd probably even eat the ones that didn't pop!  She just loves it all!

This post is Sponsored by Halls but my opinions are 100% my own! It is cough and cold season along with the Flu as well.  We found this out during our recent trip to Disney World where we picked up some germs that slowly went through my family.  Thankfully most of us were sick the day we left and then throughout the week after.  One at a time, except for my mother (who traveled with us) and my husband.  Not only is it a bad season for illnesses in the air, but to make matters worse, 56 % of people with a cough or cold are still working out at the gym, riding public transportation and shaking hands.   Which is how we got sick!   According to a new survey from HALLS, Americans are out and...
