You see, marching band kids start school two weeks earlier. The practice 8 hours a day rain or shine. With the horrendous heat wave that's plaguing our region, I'm always concerned about my kid passing out due to the oppressing heat. He is required to bring lunch and a one gallon jug to school everyday, so making sure he stays hydrated and eats healthy is a must, but that's just half of the battle. When a marching band kid comes home they are basically crawling through the front door and they are hangry! Yes, hangry, a mix between angry and hungry to the point of starvation. So this savvy mom always have a quick, easy and kid friendly recipe that...

June is National Burger Month Head to Walmart And Grab a Hamburger Helper® And Make Summer Meals a Breeze! Summer is here, the sun is shining and the warm southern wind is sweet. June is officially in full swing, kids are busy volunteering, practicing martial arts, and learning a third language at home. My kids are fluent in Spanish and English, but they are determined to learn a third language before they graduate from high school. My eldest is learning German, while my youngest is fascinated with all things French. Summer is challenging for most families, especially those with children, because not only they need to keep them busy, but you need to make 3 meals a day, when you normally only make two. What is it about kids spending long periods at home and overeating? Seriously, where does this insatiable appetite comes from? A bottle of juice? Gone in a day! Bagels? Gone in 2 days! I am just glad I can go to Walmart and get Hamburger Helper® and whip up a healthy, quick and ...

Why are Walmart workers standing up all across the country? As the world’s largest private employer, Walmart impacts all of our lives. Communities, workers, organizations and elected officials are coming together to demand that Walmart improve living conditions and guarantee the rights of workers, care for the environment, rebuild our communities and elevate global living standards. Walmart store workers are asking people nationwide to support them on Black Friday, the busiest shopping day of the year. They ask that supporters take action that spreads the word about their strikes and demonstrates to Walmart a wave of support for workers who are speaking out about poor working conditions, low wages, irregular hours and more.  While the store workers are not union members, they have joined together in OUR Walmart , a worker-led organization that stands up to make change in its company.
