Party On the Go this Fourth of July with Sam’s Club

Confession - I hate hosting family get togethers on the holidays. I love having my family over of course, it's the prepping, cleaning, cooking, serving and everything in between part that I hate. During a time that I should be enjoying my family's company, I often spend it running around the kitchen making sure food cooking times are coordinated and nothing is burning.

This weekend my family and I took off to Sam's Club on a mission to create some delicious spring recipes. One of my favorite reasons to visit Sam's Club (other than being able to buy in bulk) is the assortment of fresh produce.

Every year, shopping for Mother's Day is something I absolutely love doing. I would say I know my mom pretty well when it comes to gift giving. What I don't like is trudging through several stores to find the perfect gift. To change all that, I skipped the mall, avoided the shopping centers and went straight to Sam's Club.

Sam’s Club Grim Grill Photo Contest

Summertime is here, the weather is heating up and the grills are rolling out of garages everywhere filling the air with the scent of tasty burgers and sizzlin' hot dogs. But when you pulled out your grill, did it look something like this? Wouldn't you rather your grill looked more like this? I know I sure wish our grill was that nice. For the past few years our poor grill has been through … [Read more...]
