Raising Three Savvy Ladies

Arla Dofino Cheese at Freshmade NYC #Coupon #Giveaway

Thank you to Arla Dofino for inviting us to the event.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I have celebrated many holidays previously in my life, but a few weeks ago,  I attended “National Grilled Cheese Day” celebration also known as Havarti Party! Arla Dofino cheese, the 5th largest dairy co.  in the world, showcased an exclusive tasting event. All food items were displayed so beautifully- plain goudas , chipolatas, havartis, to name a few.

The special speaker was Kelsey Banfield author of The Naptime Chef: Fitting Great Food into Family Life.  Ms. Banfield spoke about budget friendly recipes which children would try and then continue eating. She also said children could help prepare  these recipes which I thought would be a plus at mealtime. Kelsey spoke about bringing everyday grilled cheese to a higher level by incorporating fruit and vegetables- you’re only limited by your imagination.

I’ve taken a quick sneak peek at the table of contents of her cookbook and  have to say I am truly impressed! I love a cookbook with photos! And also with an estimate of preparation and cooking time.

Being at the Grilled cheese celebration gave me some wonderful ideas use in my  home. I must make a grilled cheese sandwich on my grill to get those darkened slash marks which look so appealing! How about salsa with vegetables and cheese-  just delicious! I’m going to add “National Grilled Cheese Day” to my calender and incorporate this event into future parties at my house.

I must say that the Arla Dorfino Gouda and Creamy Havarti were exquisite.  Such wonderful taste and paired with veggies, it made a great snack with my girls.

We loved it so much that we want one lucky reader to try it too.  One Raising 3 Savvy Ladies reader will win  5 coupons for free product, a value of of up to $35

So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macy So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macys and Santa! Last night, we took the train into the city to preview #Macys #Santaland I have to say it was quite magical. Although my youngest was 12, Santa was able to connect to her and put us all in the holiday spirit. 

I believe. I believe….

My mom also came with us. We started talking and I think it was almost 40 years ago that she took us to visit Santa at Macys. I was so happy to visit Santa with her and my youngest for a three generation experience.

Don’t forget to check out the beautiful window displays as you enjoy all of #NYC during the holidays!

#ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but #ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but 1 in 5 adults suffer from mental illness and disorders today. 

Let’s reduce the stigma by opening up the conversation in the classroom and at home.
As a teacher and a mom of 3, I know how important it is to be there and be a good listener.

Conversations are super important. It’s never too early (or too late) to have these conversations with your students or your own children.

Operation Conversation is a check-in on kids’ mental health. When we start simple habits of conversations, we can learn about concerns or problems our students are dealing with, help them problem solve, and build their confidence for life’s difficult moments. 

Teachers can help to destigmatize mental health starting in their own classrooms by talking to their students about mental health using a free deck of conversation starter cards. Parents can also use these cards to support good conversations while at home. I know as a mom, I can use all the help I can get. 

#Giveaway Alert! 
I have 5 decks of Conversation Starter Decks of cards to give away to 5 lucky winners to help you get the conversation flowing! 

To enter:
1. Comment on this post as to why you would love the conversation starter deck of cards. 
 2. Follow @OnOurSleevesOfficial
3. Follow me @SavvyMomNY  I will pick the winners after 10pm on 11/22

Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest and touring her sister on first college visit. Maybe it’s a sign that they should be together. Totally bittersweet and we went to visit Binghamton in October 2019 and only made it to two more before March 2020. I’m only thinking of bright skies ahead for the both of them filled with amazing memories and wonderful opportunities 💚

New York state has so many wonderful places to be New York state has so many wonderful places to be a part of . From the bright lights of NYC, to quiet places of respite in its parks and wooded areas. Time to walk, hike and reflect. Being active and busy is something that I hope my teens learn from and something we can do together to enjoy all the beauty and nature it has to offer while keeping NY tobacco free. Did you know that our oldest generation of smokers are now dying? After them, you have me and a very large group of people who do not smoke at all. So, who’s next? Instead of taking cigarettes off the shelves, the tobacco industry views today’s teens as tomorrow’s customers, using menthol-flavored products to attract and addict kids – and it’s working. More than half (54%) of youth who smoke (ages 12-17 years) use menthol cigarettes. making it easier for kids to start and harder for them to quit. Menthol is not JUST a flavor, it attracts and addicts kids As a teen mom, I am sharing this so we can all take action! Learn more about the impact of Big Tobacco’s manipulative tactics on our communities and how you can take action to help end this injustice. Let’s keep our kids enjoying the wonderful things our state has to offer. Link in bio #NotJustMenthol #TobaccoFreeNYS #ad @tobaccofreenys
