My 2 year would go crazy for these. She loves "pinga butter toast" but because her daycare is nut free with several children with a severe peanut allergies, real peanut butter (instead of wow butter) is a very special treat in our house. I think these would be a great addition to our very limited toddler routine and have been looking for them since I first saw your post but haven't been able to find a box. 

My boys love peanut butter and they love Cheerios.  So, when Life Made Delicious asked if I wanted to try new Peanut Butter Cheerios, I didn't hesitate to say yes.  {In fact, when I got the email, this is what my boys were eating for lunch.  lol}

My three adorable taste tasters are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our box of Peanut Butter Cheerios.  :-)

Do you want to try them too?  On February 4, a coupon will go live on the Life Made Delicious facebook page for a buy one get one free opportunity to try them {redeemable on March 16/17}.  There are only a limited number of coupons, so don't delay.

And... of course, I am giving you an opportunity to win a great prize package worth $50.  Just leave a comment below letting me know your favorite way to enjoy peanut butter... smooth, crunchy, with chocolate, etc...

This contest will run from January 31 to February 28th and is open to Canadian residents only.  (One winner will be chosen by random.org and will have 48 to respond/claim prize.)  You may enter across multiple blogs but may only win one prize.

Good luck!

5 Christmas Tree Traditions

In our house, putting up the tree is a very exciting part of the holidays.  So... I thought it would be fun to share our 5 Christmas Tree Traditions with you.  

Here they are:

1)  Picking out the tree -- We always go as a family to pick out the tree.  It is always fun to listen to everyone making a case for their favorite tree. 

2)  Hot Chocolate -- We always make a big batch of hot chocolate to drink while we decorate the tree.  The boys are allowed to add marshmallows, chocolate chips, and little bits of candy canes.

3)  Cookies -- While my husband puts the tree in the stand and puts on the lights, the boys and I make cookies.  With all the excitement of getting and decorating the tree, a "baking shortcut" {like using a cookie mix or ready-to-bake cookies} is always a good idea.

4)  Hanging the first ornaments - After we unpack all the ornaments, each boy takes a turn picking his favorite ornament and hanging it on the tree.

5)  Countdown to lighting -- After the tree is fully decorated, we do a "countdown from 10", and then my husband turns on the tree lights. 

Do you have any Christmas tree traditions in your family?
