A Fun Twist on Apples: Apple Cupcakes

This week Bella was Student of the Week (where they get to tell a little something about themselves, bring in a snack to share, etc). Well, the request is always for a healthy snack, of course, but we decided to put our own spin on the term helthy. We created 20 gorgeous apple-cupcajes, complete with a stem and leaf. We did this over 3 nights, and the result was a very proud Bella and a happy teacher who loved the fun treat.

The very first, First day of School.

There will only ever be one. Yes, each child will have many first days of school. And we will have one First day of Kindergarten for each child, But there will only ever be one first First day of School. It's special, of course, for the child, but I am definitely having some emotions of my own. It's just another first day for our family in a series of firsts recently. Last week I started a new job and I think I have my feet stable enough beneath me to handle tomorrow's big event. The first day of kindergarten! I honor of Isabella's big day, I wrote her a letter that is probably way beyond her understanding for now, but one day, they will hopefully be the words that carry her through the boucing middle school experience, the tumultuous teenage years, or the grueling process of making decisions that will determine her future. If you are so inclined, the letter is short and sweet, just like my baby girl, and it's on my other blog.

A Letter to My Daughter on the Eve of the First Day of School

Free White Out

So, guess what? You know that HOT $1/2 BIC stationary coupon on Redplum? Looks like it’s good for Wite-out because Wite-Out is a stationary product, owned by BIC and the coupon featured some! At Staples, Walmart, and Target this week, all Wite-Out is priced at .50 for a two pack. Buy two and get four Wite-Outs for FREE! I know I make so many mistakes I could use some of this. If you don't need it, consider donating it to your favorite {high school} teachers!

Lysol Rebate and a PSA for School Supplies

Click Here for a GREAT rebate just in time for all that back to school shopping. And this is a great reminder to always keep your receipts for everything. I already bought a few tubs of Lysol wipes earlier this month for our back-to-school supply shopping. I can already submit this rebate without spending another dime.

If anti-bacterial wipes aren't on your back-to-school supply list or if you aren't a parent of a school-aged child, please consider making a GREATLY APPRECIATED donation to your local school (remember those oft-forgotten high school teachers who don't have the "luxury" of back-to-school supply lists). The classrooms are often a germ-ridden place of learning and many teachers spend their own money to buy wipes and sprays to help control the germs. A donation of a few tubs of these wipes would go a long way in the heart of a high school teacher. If you have a middle or high school aged child, consider showing up on back-to-school night with a bag of wipes. You'll be in their heart for the rest of the year, I promise!

Back to School Deals

With only 2 weeks left before heading back to school {at least for me -- Bella has 4 weeks of vacation left} I am sure my blog will feature many school supply deals. Here's a glace at what Walgreens is offering this week. Target and Walmart also have their back to school displays up and running. I always stock up beyond the requested wish lists from teachers so that my own classroom is stocked up and our home craft tower is full for all those weekend and vacation projects.

 Here are the Back to School deals that you will find at Walgreens this coming week:

School & Home Stock Up!

These are a few deals for this week that piqued my interest. Lots of school supply lists include ziploc storage bags. Besides that, I know we are always using them in our hose for everything from food to scrapbooking! Speaking of Scrapbooking, I am working on a post about an awesome FRUGAL project I made over the weekend at the Making Memories Retreat at Starr Pass.

Target has a new Hefty Storage bags store coupon available. You can use this two to score the following deal:

Hefty storage bags 22ct box $1.97
Use one $1/2 Hefty Storate manufacturer coupon
Use two $1/1 Hefty Target coupons
Pay $0.47 each when you buy two

This is a great price to pay for storage bags.  It looks like both of these coupons will also be included in Today’s coupon inserts.  However, Target coupons tend to be regional so if you don’t get it in your inserts at least you can print it on the Target website.

Bed Pillows as low as .50 each! Great for House Guests and Donating to shelters!



I am loving all the new Target coupons available today!  One of the new coupons available is for $2 off select bed pillows.  Some of the pillows the coupon is good for sell for as low as $2.50.  Use this coupon and pay only 50 censt for a pillow.  What a steal!  Perfect for having extras for houseguests.

There is a new Target store coupon available for $0.75/1 Up&Up brand First Aid product.  You can use this coupon to snatch the following deals:

Up & Up Hydrogen Peroxide 16 oz Bottle $0.52 – $0.64 (Regular Price)
