Blessing Others as we are Blessed

Easter is over, time to gather all the bunnies, chicks and eggs and pack them away for another year.  We had a blessed Easter sharing it with family and friends.  The kids ate more candy than they ever have in their life (which is not hard to do since they really don't get much to begin with..lol)...


We have been so blessed lately with winning so many great giveaways here in blogland..I wanted to share some of them with you and at the end of the post, we are paying it forward with some giveaway news...I don't enter a lot of giveaways, only the ones that I think the kids would really enjoy winning or ones that would save me money in my budget somehow (hey with the price of gas, a gal hasta save ya know!)


My hubby always says to me....You gotta be IN IT, to WIN it!  So here are some great things we have won over the past month...

National Chocolate Chip Day

May 15, 2012 is National Chocolate Chip Day Today is National Chocolate Chip Day! Chocolate chips are an essential ingredient in dozens of delicious baked goods—chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate chip muffins, chocolate chip brownies, chocolate chip bagels, and many more. You can even find chili recipes that call for these sweet morsels! In the 1930s, Ruth Graves Wakefield created the original chocolate chip cookie at her Toll House Inn in Whitman, Massachusetts. Ruth intended to bake chocolate cookies for her guests, but she ran out of baker’s chocolate. She substituted with chopped up semi-sweet chocolate morsels and discovered that the pieces did not melt into the dough as she expected. Her cookies were an instant hit. Today, 25% of all the cookies baked in the United States are chocolate chip! To celebrate National Chocolate Chip Day, pick up a bag of chocolate chips at the supermarket and bake something yummy to share with friends and cowor
