Saving $$ On The Little #SimplyRightBabyCare

So, I'm going to step out of the kitchen today and talk with y'all about probably the second most important thing in my mommy duties ~ saving $$.  I've shared with y'all before that we are a one income family so every chance I can get to stretch those dollars, I take it!  I pray for the day to come that Princess P becomes potty trained so that the insane cost of diapers are a thing of the past.  Sadly though, that time does not seem to be coming as soon as this momma hopes for so I just continue to look for the best deals I can find on diapers.

I have never been tied to name brands when it comes to diapers, except for ones used for over night.  I just HAVE NOT had success in finding a diaper, generic or name brand, that does not leak during the long over night hours.  I would just end up buying diapers a size larger for Princess P to sleep in but that requires even more money because now I am having to buy two different packs of diapers just to avoid having to wash sheets.  When I was given the opportunity to try out the Simply Right™ Diapers, my first thought was that these diapers would be great for the day time but I still would need a separate diaper for the night time.  Boy, was I wrong!!  I decided to give them a try & let Princess P sleep in the Simply Right™ diapers and I was amazed the next morning when she woke up & was completely dry!  No wet clothes, no wet sheets, no laundry!!  {This is where I jump for joy!}

THINKING HARD ABOUT HER TOYS

So not only have I found a diaper that provides a leak protection I can actually count on, but I also have found one that could save me up to an average of $392 a year!?!  Simply Right™ just won this momma over!!

SHE LOVED THE SIMPLY RIGHT™ WIPES

Lemon Citrus Cookies #SundaySupper

Spring has sprung!!  I'm so happy for the warmer days!  The longer days!  I love the sunshine, wearing flip flops, the time of year before it gets to be a miserable Texas summer.

Spring is the season I wished never ended.  The weather is perfect.  The colors of the blooming flowers & trees are beautiful.  Kids are out playing.  It's the time of year where you need shorts during the day and a blanket to cuddle up with at night.  And I love it!

One of my other favorite things about Spring is the fresh citrus that starts becoming available again.  Fresh oranges, fresh limes, fresh lemons ~ they all scream Spring!  What's your favorite part of the season??

 

LEMON CITRUS COOKIES

YIELD: 4 dozen

 

INGREDIENTS:

• 3 small lemons

• 3/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 2 cups flour

• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

COOKING DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a small bowl, zest all of the lemons. Remove about 2 teaspoons of the zest and place in a separate bowl. Add the 1/2 cup of turbinado sugar to the 2 teaspoons of zest. Combine with a fork and set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter and the 1 cup of granulated sugar. Beat for 1-2 minutes. Add the egg and beat until combined. Add the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Beat until combined. Slowly add in the remaining zest and the lemon juice.
