Calling all Slow Cooker Recipes!

So the Christmas season gets a little crazy and afterwards it takes some time for catching up. This is why I am calling for all easy Slow Cooker/Crock Pot recipes. And don't forget they have to be yummy!. I think Crock Pots/Slow Cookers are the best. It is so convenient to get your meal prepared and ready in the morning before the hectic day begins. The best is coming home to a nice fresh warm meal. So I will share with you my favorite recipe for the Slow Cooker if you share yours. I figured this could be very beneficial for us all during the season. If you prefer to email it to me please do and I will post it up for you. I would also appreciate any good appetizers, desserts, or other great recipes. As long as it's edible! Thanks!

Mama in Flip flops giveaways!

So I go really excited about these giveaways and had to share!

First is Pediped Shoes. OMGOSh! These are the best. I received a pair last month and have loved them. They are not only adorable but very convenient. How might you ask? They never fall off Addie's foot. I swear shoes never stay on a baby/toddlers foot but these actually do. To top off that benefit there is a great selection of colors and styles. I recommend you enter this giveaway. That's how I got my Pediped Shoes.

Have you heard of the SmartShopper? I love this idea. I will be honest with you. I am lazy and when I realize I need something at the store I don't want to look around for a pen to write down what it is. I have always thought, "If obly with a push of a button, my list was there". Well now it can be. Check it out here at Mama in Flip Flops!

FREE copy of "Amazing Grace" DVD!

So I have yet to see this movie, but it does have good review and is rated PG. If it's FREE what the heck. SO here is the deal...
You need to register at Walden Media and they will send you a FREE calendar and a copy this DVD. OH ya, and registration is also FREE. So I personally went to check this site out to see what it was all about. Walden Media is a family friendly website which first started by trying to bring loved book to the screen, like " The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". Their website now includes information on books and fun games for children to play, all which include these great movies created form novels.
Another thing this website provides is included in this paragraph below. This is in their words.

"Teachers can find inspiration for the classroom with tools like activity guides and enhanced DVDs. How about a robot-building competition? Or a writing workshop simultaneously broadcast to movie theaters around the country, with our directors, writers and stars participating? We provide seminars and forums for teachers to trade ideas on using media in the classroom.

Like all educators, we want to instill lifelong enthusiasm for learning."
