                A family project that won't break your budget. 

In today's economy , every dollar spend on food or snacks. Maybe better used towards paying a bill. Right ! But if you have children, there is only so much frozen fish sticks, or chicken nuggets you can before you want to try something that with not only taste good. But the children would enjoy doing it as a family time together. 

At our local dollar store, we have purchased the following items and depending on if we are low on supplies it isn't too expensive. As you are still getting great name products on a budget that won't break you bank.   

Items You Need :

Pizza Crust ( this is a two pack) will be various depending on dollar store 

Crushed peppercorns ( My Favorite)

Onion Salt

Garlic Salt 

Parmesan Blend (Kraft ) Free Sample from Pinchme.com 

Pepperoni ( Can get from the dollar store) various brands (not pictured)

Pizza Sauce ( dollar Store brand shown) 

I followed the directions on the Pizza crust. I prefer to have a crunchy crust so I keep that brand in the oven for 9 minutes.

Product Review : Premium Fruit Infuser Water Bottle Tumbler - 24oz BPA Free Tritan Material

                                                   

I received this product at a discount in exchange for my unbiased review.  Because of moving , and everything in between there was a delay with this blog. But today, I rinsed and washed this  Premium Fruit Infuser water bottle.  I added about 5-6 seedless black grapes, and water. And  I shake it , to help bring out the great flavor . 

And it tastes amazing ! It was really simple to open and add the fruit. It goes something like this :

Twist Cap

Gently pull out  white infuser with different shapes 

Pour in water 

Shake it !!! 

I really like that it is durable , and the seller offers 100% with 30 day Money  Back Guarantee . Be sure to view this link Premium Fruit Infuser Water Bottle Tumbler

My Review Of : Target Spring Box $40 Value for $7.00 What A Deal !

                                                               

In this +Target Beauty Box, I received the following items: 

Olay Regenerist Luminous Hydra Swirl Eye Cream - 0.5 Fl 

Sinful Colors Professional Nail Color - Thimble berry  108  

Fekkai Blowout - Hair Refresher 1.7 oz    

Revlon Ultra HD Lipstick: 875  Gladiolus  

Cutex One Step Pads Advanced Revival Pads   

First, let me apologize for the delay with this blog. I moved and also have a health matter that I had to take care of. I try my very best to stick to list that I show on up coming blogs. 

But without any further delay, I really found this box to really great. But I wish I could swap out the lipstick .As this isn't something that really used that much. 

Sinful Colors Professional Nail Color - Thimble berry  108  - I really liked this color, it was very bright and bold. 

Cutex One-Step Pads Advanced Polish Removed Pads: I really like that pads were already ready. Which made for quicker removal of the nail polish that was on my nails. 

Fekkai Blow - Hair Refresher ( Dry Shampoo) - I have never used this product before. But I am going to trying to give myself a wavy beach look. Its a really simple product to just spray and tussle ... 

Revlon Ultra HD Lipstick - 875 - Gladiolus - Its a really deep red, and that isn't really a color I would wear. Also I am more lip gloss or lip balm type of woman. 

My favorite product from this box was : Olay Regenerist Luminous - I have always wanted to try it . And I really like how it reduces the circles under my eyes. And helps to make my skin firmer. 

Be sure to always go to www.target.com and search ( Target Beauty Box).  If you are +Facebook  you may come across a few free pages that promote the boxes when they become available. Also be sure to follow my +Facebook  page at A Stay At Home Mother's Life to stay update on the blogs. And I also share a few freebies that I found as well. 

TV Show Blog : Pretty Little Liars

                 Are we sure A is caught ?  What will Season 7 Bring for the Liars ??                                   

As many of  you have seen last night , PLL had it season finale.  From Season 1 to Season 6 .... I was always trying to keep track of who done it . Who was dead Who was A .... But around season 5 , when Ally came back. Everything got all mixed up for me. 

But while catching up on the current season, things just got worst for the girls and there mothers.  Unlike other's who watched the show last night, the plot and twists were really interesting to me. As I would never thought in million years, that CeCe Drake, would turn out be Charlotte who was Charles. 

I would never had pieced together that Cece was Charles. As Ally risked her own salvation to help someone who she thought was her friend. And it was really great to see when Charles has a child to adult. And finally learning about how Toby's mother died, Bethany, Tanner. 

But the Lairs at PPL really have been through a lot and really deserved some closure.   I hope in the winter time , when the show returns that we can learn more about some great things they have done  and how everything affected everyone from Season 1 to start of Season 7. 

Prior to June of this year, I never watched PLL. But I heard such great reviews from people that I knew I should at least give it a try. And I just got drawn into the drama , and my own ideas of who A was. 

Regardless, of who A is/was. I will still tune in the winter time. Because this show is great ! We are entitled to how we feel. Of course they will throw in plot and twists in each season . And the writer's are probably planning something even bigger for when the shows returns in the winter time. 

Maybe some of everyone's predictions from this season, may get written in. We won't know til next season. So , let's continue our what if's and see if A will still be Cece or another member of PLL cast. 

My Review Of : Emergen-Zzzz™ Vitamin Drink Mix Nighttime Sleep Aid

 I received this product free to sample to review and provide my honest opinion of this product. Emergen-Zzzzzzz  aids to help you fall asleep. No matter your reason ; jet lag or just need something to help you sleep. You really need to consider this brand.  It is in two really great flavors.

• Berry 
• Peach 

      I really enjoyed  both flavors; but I thought the berry wasn't to berry. But that is just my opinion. It did help me to get a good nights sleep. Stress overload, tossing and turning ; No matter your reason for staying up at night. This can help you sleep easier .As I did after sampling this product !
