Before the day runs out

Look what we found on our door step yesterday:

It was a little goody bag brought by one of our neighbors!

Cute huh! I think it’s great that our neighborhood does something special. Jordan and I went to the dollar store and bought some cute items for our two bags:

Some Halloween candy that we have, a sheet of Halloween stickers, a big pumpkin sucker and a scary fake rat! Marc is going to taking this out tonight after he gets back from picking up the cake for Jordan’s party tomorrow.
I just love Halloween!

I made sure I hung out ghost on out front door so we wouldn’t get “ghosted” again!

Product review:

At the store the other day I noticed this yogurt that I have never seen before:

I love greek yogurt and thought I would give this a try. I love the ingredient list – simple. Just how I like it!


The texture was amazing! Very thick and creamy! But one thing I did notice was the lack of berry taste. In fact, I didn’t detect any. šŸ™ Plus it was very sour. I made a bowl with granola and CB’s PB and shared some with Jordan.

I was disappointed because I really wanted to like it, but couldn’t. I guess I will be sticking with Chobani or Oiknos.

Question: When have you had high expectations and were unfortunately let down?

Marc has been in and out all day today so I wasn’t able to prep the food. Do you know how hard it is to cook AND chase a baby around?! šŸ˜‰ So we are on night duty tonight – there really isn’t much to do; cut up veggies, get the platters out and cleaned up, make dips and just get organized. PLUS I have to decorate with streamers and get out all of the table toppers. I may need some coffee tonight!

    I love the ghosting. Our neighbors did that the first year we moved in. I think it will be more fun now that we have a child. I love reading your blog!

Hello, and welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

I started The Clean Eating Mama back in 2008 as a place to share my love of wholesome food and healthy living. Over the years, this little corner of the internet has grown and changed right along with me.

Here you’ll find simple, nourishing recipes, thoughts on clean eating and wellness, and little pieces of my everyday life. In many ways, this blog has become a personal diary of sorts. This is a place where I can share what I’m cooking, what I’m learning, what I’m loving, and where life happens to be taking me.

Healthy living doesn’t have to be perfect or complicated. For me, it’s about making choices that help us feel our best, enjoying good food, and continuing to learn and grow along the way.

So grab a cup of coffee or tea, stay awhile, and welcome to The Clean Eating Mama. Read full bio.
