Nanny to Mommy

We are all ready for summer in our house thanks to ZURU Toys! My kids were sent Bunch O Balloons Marvel Avengers, Bunch O Balloons Slingshot, X-Shot Hurricane Hydro, and Gazillion Bubble Pong from ZURU Toys. They have given a definite splash to our summer so far! I will have more pictures and video for sure to come so make sure to follow us on Instagram for more!

I have never tried a hazelnut spread before. I know crazy, right? It is a thing that people have been going crazy over online, but I just never got on the hype. I recently had the opportunity to try out Once Again Nut Butter's Amore Hazelnut Spread. I was so excited to finally try hazelnut spread from a brand that I love.



I am in a Shelf Challenge right now. And basically the idea is to cut your grocery bill by being super creative and using up the items found in your pantry then save the savings. I have a ton of pancake and waffle box mixes for some reason. I have made a bunch of batches and frozen them, we have had breakfast dinner more times than I can count, but my favorite thing to do with pancake box mix batter is to make muffins for the kids. You can add anything you like: honey, fruit, sprinkles, etc. But this time I added Once Again Nut Butter Amore Hazelnut Spread.
