First Snow

Monday, December 21, 2009 by Lolli 8 Comments

Today we are packing up the van and heading down to Florida for a week. Through the week, I have scheduled several guest bloggers who were gracious enough to help me out during my family vacation. Allow me to introduce you to my first guest: Toni Anderson is founder of The Happy Housewife, a website…

Holiday Feast With Walmart (Gift Card Giveaway!)

Sunday, December 20, 2009 by Lolli 411 Comments

I love cooking for the holidays. I have all of my traditional dishes that I have to cook every year (or it wouldn’t be the holidays!). My meal includes ham, a family-favorite potato dish, jello, rolls, beans, salad, and pies. Feeding my own family of 7 is pricey enough, but adding friends and family for…

Best of 2009

Sunday, December 20, 2009 by Lolli 4 Comments

2009 brought a lot of change to my blog. Not only did I switch my blog’s name from Life is Sweet to Better in Bulk, but at the end of the year, I moved my blog from Blogger to WordPress. I developed strong friendships with fellow bloggers, made a trip to New York with one…

Mad Hippie: Is This Poetry, Dude?

Saturday, December 19, 2009 by Lolli 4 Comments

Quick review in six-word sentences: Mad Hippie’s Repair Butter smells phenomenal. (Or should I have said “phenomenally”?) Fights against damage while building resilience. I’m talking about skin, of course. Nourishes, conditions, diminishes lines and wrinkles. . PS–Mad Hippie sent me a free sample of their repair butter to try out!

Out To Dinner

Friday, December 18, 2009 by Lolli 1 Comment

When I was anticipating my oldest daughter coming of babysitting age, I had dreams of spur-of-the-moment dates with CandyMan on weekday nights. It would be SO easy, and so cheap! No babysitter to schedule, pick up, drop off, and PAY. It would be heaven! We could go on two dates a week, go out to…

I Want to Eat Her Up (Give Me Your Best Shot!)

Thursday, December 17, 2009 by Lolli 6 Comments

It wasn’t hard to pick my favorite shot of the week. A friend of mine came over with her 3 kids….some of the cutest kids on the planet who don’t have the same last name as me, as a matter of fact. Who can resist hair this color…and the CURLS? This particular shot caught my…

Happy {Insert Holiday Here}

Wednesday, December 16, 2009 by Lolli 10 Comments

The older my kids get, the busier the holiday season becomes. That’s 5 kids who are involved in boy and girl scouts, choirs, youth activities at church, plays at school and orchestra. And each of those activities seem to schedule some kind of Winter presentation. This morning, I headed to the elementary school to hear…

And The Panic Sets In

Tuesday, December 15, 2009 by Lolli 18 Comments

I love Christmas. I love the candies and the cookies. I love watching the excitement on my children’s faces as the exciting day approaches. I love the music, the lights, the magical atmosphere that is EVERYwhere. I love the smell of pine and freshly baked Christmas goodies. I love it, I really do. But shopping…

Holiday Shopping – Holiday Shipping

Monday, December 14, 2009 by Lolli Leave a Comment

I am a plan-ahead kind of holiday shopper. I make detailed lists and check things off as I purchase them. I know exactly what I’m getting for everyone, and except for those hard-to-find items, holiday shopping is rather fun for me. For the last eight years or so, I’ve been making each member of my…

Those of you who, like me, have older children know what a challenge it is to find them worthwhile and affordable gifts for birthdays and holidays. KitKat’s 13th birthday is next week, the day before Christmas, so I have to prepare doubly for her. On her list this year? A cell phone, an iTouch, a…
