Product Review – ManGrate
Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. Last week, I was sent a ManGrate starter set. ManGrate is a cast-iron cooking grate for your grill. Each grate weighs 8 pounds, is 15-inches long by 4 1/4 inches wide and measure 1 3/8 inches thick, & cooks using radiant heat. You place them sided by side, and can use lay them horizontally or vertically. The set I received had two grates and a cleaning brush. I was very interested in trying these out since we do so much cooking on our smoker grill. I surprised my husband with them as an early Father’s Day gift & he was very eager to use them right away. I picked up two inexpensive steaks at the store. They were medium thickness and usually end up a little tough no matter how you cook them. After seasoning the grates (which only took about 10 minutes), my husband seasoned the steaks and tossed them on. We normally cook steaks medium rare so they didn’t take too long. My husband said right away that the steaks ...
Guest Article – Seven Date Night Ideas for Families with Kids
As much as parents love and adore their kids, it is important that parents keep the romance alive and spend time alone, even if only for a few hours. Families with children, especially first-time parents, can find they have little time, energy, or money to spend on a date night out. So, here are seven date night ideas that are casual, fun, and inexpensive: 1. Movie Night In Instead of going out, stay in. Movie theaters can be expensive and crowded, and sometimes the choices available are not worth the high-ticket price. Ask friends or family if they would be willing to take the kids for a couple of hours, and spend some quality time inside of your own home, kicking back on the couch with your loved one. Satellite TV and Internet provide you with plenty of movie choices, and for a few hours you can relax with your spouse. 2. Look at the Stars Whether it’s on the roof of your own house or from a mountaintop, looking at the stars with your spouse is a great date night option. ...

The Goodnight, Sleep Tight, What a Wonderful Flight Book Review & Giveaway
Goodnight, Sleep Tight, What a Wonderful Flight is a children's book by Louise Lintvelt. Mrs. Lintvelt has always enjoyed reading since she was young, and her two year old daughter is a source of constant inspiration for her stories. The story follows several different airplanes winding down ad going to to sleep. We get to see what the different planes do during the day and they what they do at night to go to sleep. The planes include a fire plane, a passenger plane, crop duster, air ambulance, and a jet.The story is very cute and the illustrations by Di Thai Thanh are beautiful. The picture for fire plane Jake at night is especially cute with the teddy bear strapped to his wing. My daughter absolutely loved the story. Overall, the story is very cute and great for kids.
