This meal was super satisfying and filling and loaded with veggies, dark leafy greens and good fats. Yum! Now that the summer days are dwindling down, my mind is starting to get in Back-to-School mode. I was super excited to be selected to participate in the Daily Buzz Moms Tastemaker program and to receive a very helpful Back-To-School kit, courtesy of The Clorox Company. Thank you!  I received Clorox Disinfecting Wipes (one of my favs), Glad To Go Lunch Containers and a Brita Bottle Water Filtration System.  Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes are the simple solution for cleaning and disinfecting a variety of household surfaces. There’s no need for multiple products when you have the convenience of one simple-to-use wipe. Just wipe, toss, and you’re done.I use these wipes all the time. I love to wipe down my kitchen counter tops with them before and after prepping food. They are also a staple in all of our bathrooms- one swipe around the surfaces and you are done cleaning and can feel assured that your bathroom is disinfected. The Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes are also on the school supplies list so I am set there as well!  I absolutely love these Glad To Go Lunch Containers with Dressing Cups that snap into lid. So cool. Conquer cabinet clutter with GladWare® Containers with Interlocking Lids. Sturdy GladWare® Containers with Interlocking Lids have a tight seal to help seal in freshness and prevent messy leaks. And as always, they're microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe. The Small Bowl size comes in a pack of four 4 cup (32 oz.) round containers with lids.  I am always trying to get the kids to eat more veggies at lunch time and now have a great way to send them with a salad for lunch. I also am planning on bringing this salad to the pool with me today. Now, I have no excuses for not eating healthy! These are the perfect size for lunch. The best part is that I was able to fill the lid with dressing and snap it in neatly. The fresh and healthy salad is all ready to go. No mess. Love that! We are traveling tomorrow so am excited to use these on our trip. I won't have to spend a bunch of money in the airport on food that is just so-so. I also plan on bringing the Brita Bottle Water Filtration System sans the water before going through security. These are great and I will be picking up 3 more for the rest of the family. Get great-tasting water on the go, without the cost and waste of bottled water. The reusable Brita® Bottle filters ordinary water as you drink, to make tap water taste great anywhere. It’s BPA-free, dishwasher safe (top rack) and recyclable.

Thank you Clorox for sending me this great Back-to-School kit. I am feeling like I am more prepared for our vacation as well as for school. Having peace of mind is always nice. I have a gazillion things to do today and am going to get started on them now. Time to take Gumbo (our dog) to his Pet Resort and then on to the next. I hope you all have a great day and I will check in with you from Chautauqua, NY! |

This is going to be a GREAT day. I get to pick up my boy from camp at 6:00pm. Yaa! I can't wait to get the full report and to reconnect with him.
Zoe and I had a great day yesterday. We went shopping, swam for 2 hours, packed and made a delicious dinner with one of Zoe's favorite veggies- Spaghetti Squash. She likes to eat hers straight up with a little butter. I needed to use up some of my veggies before we go out of town so came up with a delicious Broccoli and Kale Spaghetti Squash and then topped it with a Creamy Avocado Sauce. Oh my, this was good. I am learning that some of the best dishes come from just using what is in the pantry/fridge.
