![]() Born Free Drinking Cup - Colors May Vary $10.99 I'm intrigued by the people who state the soft spouts don't leak. By the look of my couch, floor, and son, I beg to differ. Although I spent a good hour at the store reading packaging and doing research, I came home with this dud. It leaks. Period. Maybe when my son is older, this might be useful, but since I couldn't find the cup he liked anywhere I needed to find a new one to replace his pre-bed, and only, bottle of the day. We tried these and have been so unhappy. The price is rediculous considering how much confusion there is around this product. Even if people are buying training vs. drinking cups, I don't believe that all these people could be making the same mistake. It's time for the manufacturer to work on their packaging and marketing if that's the case. ![]() Yahtzee Free for All $18.99 I am a big fan of board games, and Yahtzee has been one of those classics that has been on the middle of my list. But now with this new version, it is one of my favorite games to play! The original Yahtzee can be kind of boring when it is not your turn. With this game, you are paying attention to everyone else's dice rolls to ensure they won't steal your points. It's competitive and very fun. Another thing I like about it is that the whole family can play it. We were playing it at a family get together with my mom who is over 60 and my neice who is 5 (and.. the 5 year old won!) As cheesy as the line is to say, it really is "fun for the whole family" ![]() The Gluten-Free Pantry Muffin & Scone Mix, 15-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) $28.68 These are my absolute favorite go-to GFCF muffins! At first I was put off by having to add the flavoring myself (having previously used Jiffy mixes), but now I like the ability to personalize the flavoring without having to stock dozens of different mixes. However, since my 9-y-o ASD son has texture issues, dried fruits are NOT an option for us (he just drops the fruit, or the rest of the muffin, when he comes to it), so I just measure 3/4 cup of all-fruit spread. Easy and versatile! I've also used fresh mashed banana and canned pumpkin. Even made it one time with just OJ instead of milk and no mix-ins (we were at my folks' and had already started mixing when we realized there was no GFCF milk); they were delicious that way, too! One tip I would like to share with everyone: Instead of mixing the whole package of dry ingredients and the whole cup of milk at once, mix like an old-fashioned cake recipe and alternate the dry & the milk. It makes the batter lighter and you get more muffins. (I average 22!) |
