I often have difficultly planning meals.  I seem to go back to the same old recipes when I really want to try something new.  Fortunately, I have come across four great sites that offer meal plans (and one site where you can print a blank meal planning sheet) to help me with ideas.   If you need help organizing and planning meals, these sites will help you with the task.

• Organizing Junkie tells us her menu plan every Monday as part of Menu Plan Monday.  Stop by every Monday to get some ideas for meals for the week.  You can also look at her previous Menu Plan Monday posts for even more ideas.
• This Week for Dinner also provides a weekly meal plan.  The best part is that others leave comments with their meal plans as well, giving you plenty of choices to create your own meal plan for the week.
• E-mealz is a subscription service that I have used.  There are many different menu options to choose from (such as low-fat, low-carb, gluten free) and you can even choose the store that you shop from.  The menus come with recipes for every day of the week and a shopping list.  The plan is very affordable at about $5.00/month depending on the plan.
• Another subscription based service is Menu4Moms.com.  These menus include full-color photographs and plans for leftovers.  You can get a trial for only one penny for two weeks.  If you decide to continue the price is $7.95/month. Every week you will receive a new menu with recipes and grocery list in a PDF file.

You can print a  free printable Weekly Meal Planner sheet from Organized Home.  Organized Home offer tons of great free printables to help you with home organization.

Baby carriers have come a long way. Gone all the old steel frame and harsh cloth carriers. Instead, you can wrap your baby in comfort with the Baby K’tan® Baby Carrier. This carrier should be on every parent’s baby shower gift list. Recommended by doctors, the carrier has no wrapping, no hardware and no buckles. Instead it uses a innovated double loop design with an adjustable back support band. The wide shoulder straps make it comfortable for the person wearing the carrier. A free carrying bag is included as well.

The Baby K’tan® Baby Carrier is made of 100% natural cotton which is free of harmful chemicals, formaldehydes and azo dyes. The carrier can be machine washed and dried as well. You can choose between a 100% natural and organic cotton in warm cocoa, basic black, sage green or natural, or a breathable mesh (half cotton, half mesh) available in white or black. The carrier can be used for babies for 8 to 35 pounds. It also comes in a variety of sizes, so that the carrier fits just right. For example, a medium carrier fits women’s dress size 10-12 and men suit-jacket size 39-42. The carrier is meant to be fitted and snug.

What I love about this carrier is that is ideal for breastfeeding. It is always nice to have a product that supports nursing and makes it easy and comfortable for mom and baby.

This product will be featured in the upcoming Ohh Baby Baby Giveaway Hop. Come back April 1st and check out all the cool prizes!

I love retro wear.  Well, maybe not bell bottom pants, but a blast from the past is always nice!  Polaroid Eyewear is the perfect fashion accessory and now they are offering sunglasses in cool retro styles.  The Best Under The Sun Collection sunglass line takes you through six decades of sunglass fashion.  Now you can complete any fashionable look from any decade!

Best Under The Sun Collection is inspired by fashion trends from the 1930s through the 1980s.  Plus each high-quality frame features polarized UV-blocking lenses.  Each pair is priced between $79 and $110.  These glasses are perfect for the vintage lover in your life and would make a great Valentine’s Day gift!

I have a few favorites. The first is the ultimate 1970s glasses, Donna. These glasses are reiminscient of those 1970s music celebrities that we loved. You can choose either light brown or blue frames. The Polaroid polarized lenses are great for glare-free vision and they offer 100% UV400 protection which protects eyes for UVA, UVB and UVC rays.

My other favorite, and the pair that I received, is the Swing. I love the funky shape of these glasses! Inspired by a 1930s Polaroid classic, the frames come in light brown or dark demi. Of course, like all of the glasses, they have Polaroid polarized lenses and offer 100% UV400 protection.

This product is going to be featured in the Spring Fashionista Giveaway in March! Come back and see what other great fashion products you can win!

Color, Click, Capture is a new blog hop hosted by East9thStreet, A Helicopter Mom, Nap Time Is My Time and Sunshine and Sippy Cups. Each week there will have a different color  to theme.  Share your photograph featuring that color.

This week the color theme is RED.  This summer we visited a zoo near Virginia Beach.  While we were there, the two teenage tigers were out playing in the pool with a Big Red Ball.  My kids were thrilled to be able to see these tigers up close and having so much fun.  The tigers were splashing in the water, batting the ball around and having a blast!

This week’s theme for Pretty on Pinterest meme sponsored by Simply Stacie and Sassy Mama in LA is Hot! I found a bunch of hot candle flames on Pinterest to share. Don’t you just love how some savvy people arrange candles?

This looks like it is at a Wedding.

I love a soft pillow! Unfortunately, some of the cheaper pillows that you get at the store down the street are just not up to my standards. What I really want is the Faux Down Pillow from Nature’s Sleep. This pillow is referred to as “The Teddy Bear” of pillows. What makes it different is that it is filled with microgel fibers. These fibers make the pillow soft and supple. Plus, the pillow is great for your neck and head. The pillow is washable too! Since, this pillow is great for those who are side and stomach sleepers (like me) and who hove to hug their pillow (me, again), this would be a great addition to my bedroom.

Nature’s Sleep also makes memory foam pillows in various sizes, mattress tops and of course, the memory foam mattresses! Right now, we have a pillow top mattress that has not held out very well. We are looking forward to purchasing a new memory foam mattress in the near future and I’ve decided that the 12″ St. Cloud LUXE Mattress is the one that I want! This mattress has a multi layer design. The first layer is 2″ of vitex memory foam which makes the mattress very soft and plush. The second layer is 2″ of visco technology memory foam. The two layers together create a surface and molds and contours to your body. There is also 2″ of pressure relieving foam and a 6″ high density support core. Just writing about this mattress makes me want it even more!

Right now, Nature’s Sleep is offering my readers a 50% off coupon for anything in their store! Simply use the code BEARS50 when you check out.

I have never had a reclining chair in my house. I have always wanted one. I want to be able to sit in a chair, by myself, with my feet up. I love snuggling with my kids, but sometimes I just need a little space of my own. If I were to get myself a recliner, it would be a wall-hugger recliner like this Chocolate Microfiber Recliner from Wholesale Furniture Brokers. First, I just love the feel of Microfiber. Second, this is a nice big chair, so if I have to share my space, I will at least have some room.

This recliner comes with a recessed external handle making it easy to open and close the reclining mechanism. There are plush pillow arms and a broad pillow back. This chair just screams comfort! If you don’t like the color chocolate, this chair is also available in light brown, beige and sage.

I know there are a lot of coupon sites out there, but Coupon Chief is one of the fastest growing coupon sites. Right now there are over 250,000 visitors per month and over 50,000 coupons for over 15,000 stores!

When I was shopping online for Christmas presents this year (I do most of my shopping online), I was able to find a coupon for free shipping for my order from Macy’s. Macy’s had two fantastic coats for my daughters that I couldn’t find in the store.

One of my favorite sections of Coupon Chief is the Popular Coupons. I love this section because this is where I usually find the best coupons and for things that I actually want. For instance, I found a coupon for 15% off at Payless Shoes. Right now, Payless is running their buy one, get one 50% off sale and you must check out their clearance section. I have bought shoes for less than $8.00!

Another feature of Coupon Chief is the New Coupon section. Return to this section often, some of these coupons may not last for long. If you love VANS shoes (as my daughters do) they have Free FedEx 2-Day shipping on all orders of $49 or more right now.

Make sure you Like Coupon Chief on Facebook and Follow them on Twitter to get coupon updates! Don’t forget that Valentine’s Day is coming up – save money on Valentine’s Day Gifts with Coupon Chief!
