#40bags40days - Update Week 4
Welcome to the #40bags40days Week 4 update! I am happy to say that I was able to get back on track this week! Tackling the basement has been a BIG project. My laundry area is there, and the space surrounding it is where I end up putting things that don't have a place. There were toys, books, outgrown clothes and supplies for my Norwex business.

"Warm Your Corn" with Popcorn, Indiana!
Popcorn is, and always has been, one of my favourite snacks. All the buttery, salty goodness - so delicious! Nothing like cuddling on the couch to watch a movie and snacking on some yummy popcorn. I generally make my own, but when I was given the chance to try the Popcorn, Indiana Original Movie Theater Popcorn I decided to test it out.
Unlike traditional microwave popcorn, Popcorn, Indiana uses non-gmo corn, without additives or preservatives. It is free from colourings and artificial flavours.
The Original Movie Theater Popcorn now comes in a new bag that is microwavable safe - which means that now you can have your popcorn served warm, straight from the bag! All you do is cut a slit in the bag, place in the microwave for approximately 50 seconds and it's ready to snack on!
We were given a few different flavours to try, Original Movie Theater Popcorn, FIT Popcorn in Sea Salt Flavour, and the Drizzled Black & White Kettlecorn.
The FIT is a great option for those that are watching what they eat, with less than 40 calories per serving, and it still tastes great!

#40Bags40Days - Week 1
I started off the 40 Bags in 40 Days challenge in my kitchen. The least daunting task seemed to be my pantry. It was completely cluttered and not organized at all, and I knew there was some expired and/or stale food (from the kids not putting stuff away properly). I filled a small kitchen trash bag with stuff that could go.

When Wendy’s special Storybook is stolen by Captain Hook, Jake and his mates go to London to help Peter Pan’s friend (from the classic movie Peter Pan). The longer the book is out of Wendy’s hands, the more she and her brothers (John and Michael) forget about their past adventures on Never Land. The battle for the book continues in Never Land, where Hook plans to destroy the book and its stories in the legendary Ring of Blue Fire. It’s up to our young heroes to save Wendy’s Storybook and the Story of Peter Pan!

Tales of Mommyhood Christmas 2014
This past Christmas wasn't really a GREAT Christmas. Mr. J was sick with the flu. It started Christmas Eve, and he spent pretty much all day on the couch with a fever, watching movies or watching his dad play video games. Mr. K and I went to my moms for our annual Christmas Eve celebration (my aunts, uncles and cousins all gather at my moms place for dinner, drinks and family time). We normally go over an hour early and exchange our gifts with my mom, and then the family comes. Having young kids, we are headed home between 8 and 830 normally so that we can get everything set out for Santa and the kids to bed.
Mr. K helped me leave out Cookies and Milk for Santa this year |
#40Bags40Days
(If you have already read this, scroll to the bottom to find my weekly updates!)
It's a new year, and that means it is time for a challenge! I am going to take part in the 40 Bags in 40 Days challenge!
The basis for this is to clean out your house of unwanted clutter, garbage and unused items. You can concentrate on one area each day, and the goal is to get a bag from each place - helping get your home organized and de-cluttered!
