Thank you Chicken of the Sea for sending me a free lunch pack containing the products mentioned below to try and share. I appreciate you and as always, all opinions are 100% my own.
As a busy work at home Mom of two, getting my family out the door quickly and with a healthy lunch is always a priority. I pack 3 lunches (my husband gets the love from home treatment too) 5 days a week, so having a quick and healthy product like Chicken of the Sea To Go cups are a lifesaver!
About Chicken of the Sea to go cups:
Chicken of the Sea’s popular To Go Cups are available in Chunk Light Tuna, Albacore Tuna, Tuna Salad and Pink Salmon. To Go Cups are ready to eat, no draining required with only 70-80 calories each, these cups are perfect for a quick lunch or snack at school, in the office or on the road.
Available in easy-to-open, 2.8-ounce cups, Chicken of the Sea’s tuna and salmon are wild-caught and a natural source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids and protein, and are low in fat and calories. The cups come in packages of two.
“According to the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, consumers should eat at least eight ounces of seafood each week,” said registered dietician Sharon McNerney. “Chicken of the Sea’s To Go Cups makes it even more convenient for people to eat the recommended amount of seafood.”
You can learn more by visiting Chicken of the Sea on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest . To find a grocery store in your area that carries the To Go Cups, use Chicken of the Sea’s Product Locator.
My Review:
The Tuna Salad cups were the first to go. My youngest daughter and husband gave them a try. They found this Tuna Salad had a unique, “zesty” taste they liked. They were both reading the labels to discover what the secret ingredient might be. One thing they didn’t find was Mayo, which makes this Tuna Salad healthier than most and easy to grab and go without the need for refrigeration.
I loved using the Albacore Tuna and Pink Salmon for a quick salad. I’m the queen of the leftover lunch, so adding these products to left over salad or pasta made for an easy and tasty lunch.
The Chunk Light Tuna made a great after school snack for my oldest daughter, who always gets home starving and looking for a quick but healthy snack. She loved having the Chicken of the Sea To Go cups handy. She grabbed one and some crackers and she was a happy snacker.
We Loved the Chicken of the Sea to Go cups and will buy them again, soon actually! Every pack comes with a 50 cents off coupon, so saving is easy. Plus, if you join their Mermaid club, you will get a coupon mailed to you in your birthday month.

Last month we spent the day at the Tennessee State Fair. A fun day was had by all and I wanted to give another nod to all the people who brought their animals. The one thing people may not tell you about Fowls is that they can get stinky! See what I did there? Foul vs. Fowl? ;)

Happy HUMP Day! Okay, I couldn't resist. My girls do the commercial total justice, me... well, I'm a work in progress. :)
Do you have a Wordless Wednesday post up? Share your link in a comment so I can stop by and see what's going on in your world.
As I do most every morning, I walked into my laundry room to check if I left a load of laundry in the washer overnight. My washer was empty, the dryer wasn’t.
No big news flash there, but while I’m standing there contemplating the next load (you know, should it be darks or lights or whites) I noticed a funky odor wafting around.
No big news flash there, but while I’m standing there contemplating the next load (you know, should it be darks or lights or whites) I noticed a funky odor wafting around.
Laundry rooms should smell clean and fresh, not like a sweaty sock!
My eyes immediately go to the white’s basket. Even though it’s only half full, I start sorting. Actually, I double sort my whites. I make two piles; one is only socks and underwear, the other towels and linen. My Mama didn’t teach me to sort clothes like this and I’m betting your Mama didn’t either. But I think you'll be a white's double sorter too after you read this.
So why the double sort?
One word: Poop.
Yes! Poop! I saw this
story on ABC News a couple of years ago and it has stuck with me. According to Charles Gerba, a
professor of microbiology at the University of Arizona:
"If you wash a load of just underwear, there will be about
100 million E. coli in the wash water, and they can be transmitted to the next
load of laundry," Gerba said. “There’s about a tenth of a gram of poop in
the average pair of underwear," he added. Fecal matter can carry a number
of different germs, including the hepatitis A virus, norovirus, rotavirus,
salmonella and E. coli.
Gross, right?
Thinking our detergent was enough to
keep the germs at bay is wrong. Thinking my hot water was hot enough to kill
the nasty’s was wrong too.
So here’s what I do. I wash the
underwear and socks in hot water with bleach first. Then, I clean the washer
with a spray of diluted bleach water and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Then I
wash the towels in hot water and bleach. Now I’m not spreading germs and poop
and all those other gross things mentioned above.
It’s imbedded in my brain to double sort
my whites and clean my washer now and I’m teaching my girls to do the
same. I know old habits die hard, but if
you could visualize drying your face with a dirty sock, you will be doing the
double sort too.
You’ve just read the first in my new
series of homemaking tips. I will share a new tip each week. Please let me know
your thoughts and what topics you’d like to see me cover in comments.
Thanks!
