A little something to share

Does anyone out there have a picky eater?

Both of my boys are picky. Caleb to the extreme. So when I find something they like we stock up. I found these Ore-Ida ABC Tater Tots at Meijer on my last shopping trip and decided to give them a try. They loved them!



How can you pass on a food that they not only like but can learn from at the same time?





Two other things I thought I'd mention if you're a mom like me trying to get veggies in your children anyway possible........ V8 Fusion and Garden Cheddar Goldfish crackers.



My pediatric an suggested the V8 Fusion and the boys really like it (I didn't think they would at first but they did). An 8oz glass contains a FULL serving of vegetables AND a FULL serving of fruits! I shop around for this because it can be a little pricey. I can usually find it on sale for about $2.50 a bottle.

I think I read about the new Goldfish crackers in a Parents magazine so I had my eye out for them when I was shopping. I found them last week and decided to try a bag. I don't think there are many kids out there that don't like Goldfish crackers. However, I didn't think they tasted that good, at least not the regular cheddar ones we buy. I DO like the new Garden Cheddar kind. They have a lot more flavor (in my opinion) and they say they have a 1/3 of a serving of vegetables in a serving. Of course you have to eat 56 crackers (that's the serving size). Joshua wouldn't have a problem with eating that many if I let him. All I can say is they taste better, the boys like them and they are getting some amount of vegetables in their bodies even if it's a small amount at a time.

BONUS!!!!! - Meijer has Goldfish crackers on sale for a $1 this week! THAT'S LIKE HALF PRICE!!!!!

Kroger - Donatos Deal

We thank Stephanie Albert for providing this information!




Large Donatos Take-n-Bake pizzas are on sale at Kroger this week for $6. You can freeze them and save them. It saves you $10 a pizza from ordering directly from Donatos.

Note, the pizzas do take a tad longer to bake than most. The directions are on the package.
