My boys love raisins, they eat them almost every day. They are the perfect on-the-go, healthy snack. I often pack raisins in Jude’s school lunch. Occasionally I will make a fun after-school treat, Chewy Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. Ingredients Directions In a large bowl cream butter, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla In a separate bowl whisk…
My long hair is a pain to brush, especially when it’s wet. I recently tried The Wet Brush and was shocked at how well the Wet Brush was able to comb through stubborn knots and tangles. The Wet Brush’s Intelliflex bristles make for easy and pain free de-tangling. And of course the Wet Brush isn’t…
After what seemed like weeks of constant rain I noticed that my children were becoming restless. They got bored easily, couldn’t maintain focus on a task for very long and were generally more grumpy.

Summer means two things in the Lieb house peaches and ice cream. And the combination of the two equals the ultimate summer treat, peach ice cream. Joe and I received an ice cream maker as a wedding gift from Joe’s parents along with his mother’s ice cream recipe. It’s more of a custard recipe but…
I spend a good deal of money on back-to-school items. From notebooks and pens to school uniforms and shoes I would hate to have to replace things because they were misplaced. Labeling your child’s school possessions at least gives misplaced items a fighting chance to be reunited with their owner which is why I label…
