Friday Food Frenzy for 2/15 - Come Link Up!

It is Friday already. Does that seem to come fast for anyone else? Here on Adventures in All Things Food I am getting ready to begin some hefty meal planning and freezer cooking. Yes, I want to have a solid month or two of meals ready for my family when this baby comes. I love soups, but hope to throw in some baked goods, casseroles and crock pot-ready meals. Do you do any freezer cooking?

Sounds like our host and other co-host will also be busy. Life is going to get a little less sweet on Close to Home as she gave up Sweets for lent....Guess she is going to get creative, although it is only 30 days.  Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by.

Friday Food Frenzy - 11/9 Link Up Your Recipes!

I can not believe Thanksgiving is going to be here in 2 short weeks.  We prefer not to travel so if family does not come here, we have neighbors and friends who are also alone and share in the company.  Isn't that what the holiday is about?  I will begin to look for recipes this weekend but would love any inspiration for you great cooks.

Friday Food Frenzy 11/2 - Come Link Up!

Halloween is past us now, Thanksgiving and Christmas will be here in a snap.  The thing I love most about Thanksgiving is the only focus is getting people together and sharing a meal. No presents involved just your presence.  We try to keep traditions but add a few dishes each year.

Sponsor Spotlight! Booty Bums #Review #ClothDiaperHop


My big girl is almost out of diapers, but I still have a little time left with fluff for her. I am already getting a stash built up for the next baby we are planning on.

Starting May 1st I will be part of the Mother's Day Cloth Diaper Giveaway Hop and one of my sponsors will be Booty Buns Cloth Diapers.

I fell in love with Shannon's diapers! I first started using cloth when my son was born almost 5 years ago. It amazes me how far cloth has come!

Easier to use, easier to clean and more comfortable for my kids. My daughter actually asks for her "soft diapers" instead of disposable. I love how Moms have really taken cloth diapers and made them exactly what they wanted.

Booty Buns began in 2010 by a stay-at-home Mom looking to save money. Shannon wanted to make a diaper that would truly grow with a child. Who wants to invest in sizes? I know I have stacks of cloth diapers my kids seemed to wear once or twice. Shannon began selling her diapers this year in January and her innovative, patent-pending design makes for a great cloth diapering experience for both Mother and child.


I was very surprised when my fluffy mail arrived! This was the first diaper that came with a whole kit of supplies. This one-size pocket cloth diaper comes with 4 different components: shell, insert, liner and now matching cloth wipe. I recieved the "Love Booty" in red. I loved not having to buy all the components separately. In the past I would buy a shell and basic insert. Additional inserts, liners and wipes were all separate.


Pocket diapers are my favorite because they are so easy for even my husband to use and understand. The opening is large enough to easily stuff.


I like to fold my insert slightly with one hand, hold the shell with my other hand and push into the diaper. This shell has an opening at each end which makes it very easy to adjust.


I love the double gussets. It used to be that leg gussets were a luxury on a cloth diaper. Does that date me? This one fits well enough that I don't have to worry about toddler blowouts. Oh, those are the worst!


I was also impressed with the liner and cloth wipe. The liner is a great way to save wear and tear on the actual diaper by catching the solids. This piece is thin enough for a good thorough cleaning. The wipe is something I fell in love with my second child. Most people don't realize all they need to clean a bottom is water and a soft cloth. Even after changing wet diapers a nice pat will keep the skin from getting too moist and really helped me with diaper rash issues.


I can't wait to try Booty Buns out on a newborn, but for my 2-year old it was perfect. She approved of the feel and I loved the bright color and easy use. Now I just need about 20 more of these for the next baby.

Okay, I hope you are excited about the chance to win one of these Booty Buns Cloth Diapers!  You can get a head start on the entries by connected with me (on the right sidebar) and the sponsor on social media:


Don't forget to come back May 1st for the Mother's Day Cloth Diaper Giveaway Hop for this giveaway and many other fluffy goodies!

Oh Baby Baby Hop - $30 GC #Giveaway

Oh Baby Baby Giveaway Hop 

Welcome to the Oh Baby Baby Giveaway Hop hosted by The Shopping Duck! After entering this giveaway, be sure to enter the Grand Prize Giveaway where you can win a prize pack worth over $250 or an $80 Babies R Us Gift Card! Each participating blogger is also hosting a prize worth at least $25. Be sure to visit each participating blog listed in the linky below and enter to win!

I was a proud cloth diapering Mama with my two children. I loved trying new brands, finding new fabrics and sharing my love of fluff with our friends.


We went through a lot of fluff in 4 years. The first thing I learned was there is no perfect cloth diaper. Babies come in so many sizes. I found different brands that worked best for each of my children. My son was long and thin, while his sister was shorter and rounder.


In honor of the diverse stash of cloth diaper brands that I love, I am giving away a Gift Certificate to Kelly's Closet for $30 so you can find something to perfectly fit your baby.

Kelly's Closet is one of my favorite online shops to browse. They have everything to get you started from prefolds to all in ones, diaper sprayers to swim diapers. They offer great sales and if you look around, you might even qualify for a free diaper!

Giveaway Time!!
One lucky reader will win a $30 Gift Certificate to use at kellyscloset.com. Giveaway ends April 15th. Enter on the rafflecopter form below.
