Brown Sugar Saver Review and #Giveaway!! #FoodieFriday

How many times have you started mixing up your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe, only to find your brown sugar is - literally - as hard as a rock?! We've all been there, right? I actually started throwing out any unused brown sugar about 3 weeks after opening, simply because I don't like having those little lumps of brown sugar in the finished product. Yes, it ends up wasting a certain amount, but what else can you do? Enter the Brown Sugar Saver from JBK Pottery!!

JBK Pottery sent me a Brown Sugar Saver in the moose design for review, and I was excited to try it out. If there's a way to keep my brown sugar from hardening, I want to try it! This is simply a small ceramic piece with a cute design on the front. Soak in water for 15 minutes, dry it off, and tuck into your brown sugar.

This will keep brown sugar soft for up to 3 months!! I don't think brown sugar ever lasts that long around here, but now I don't have to toss out a cup or two of brown sugar every 3 weeks! I actually put it in with some sugar that was already hardening, and it really does soften up after sitting with this ceramic piece. I love that it's reusable too; if your brown sugar begins to harden, simply soak in water, dry off, and put it back in! This is definitely a tool that every baker needs in their kitchen!

JBK Pottery has some other really neat kitchen products. Ceramic cookie stamps, pot minders (keeps water from boiling over), bread warmers...all great products to have in your kitchen!

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June.
