Who’s Faster than a Speeding Waistband? Captain Underpants in His First Epic Movie!

by Denise

Maybe you’ve heard: Captain Underpants has a movie. Tra-la-laaa! Ordinarily, I’m not one for potty humor, but if you’ve ready any of the Captain Underpants books, you’ll understand why I make an exception.

Back to School with the Magic of Chia + Giveaway

by Denise

There’s still some time before school starts for us, and I haven’t done much to prepare yet. Food is always my first priority though, as I’m a firm believer that a healthy diet is a lot more important than a new shirt or the ridiculously specific school supplies we’re expected to get. Food is more…
