Connect with Kraft Foods in the kitchen and on the web!

We love Kraft foods in our house. Really. Just come over for dinner some night or go through our pantry and you’ll see what I mean! And we love Kraft foods here at 5 Minutes for Mom community as well! Remember this past year when Janice attended the Kraft Mom Blogger Event in Chicago and…

It’s Raining Cheeseburgers

It’s finally here! Tomorrow is the release date for Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs on Blu-ray and DVD. It’s a great addition to your home movie library, perfect for family movie nights and a great purchase to make with the gift cards you or your children received over the holidays.

A Perfect Keepsake Blanket

I am a winter baby, born on the first day of winter – December 21st. Yes, my birthday is pretty close to Christmas. Although I get many joint presents and also tend to spend birthday money on gifts for friends and family, I love being a winter baby. What about you? Are you or any…

It’s Love, Angel, Music, Baby

Okay, I must be living under a rock, because I have loved Gwen Stefani since No Doubt released Tragic Kingdom in 1995, and I had no idea that she had an adorable fragrance collection called Harajuku Lovers.

Draw Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Hi, my name is Dawn, and I’m the mother of a Star Wars obsessed nine year old. I can’t imagine I’m the only one out there who listens (okay, half-listens) to the long and descriptive stories of all things Star Wars, right? While I truly believe my son has checked out every fiction and information…

Yo Gabba Gabba Prize Pack

Truth — I find Yo Gabba Gabba to be a little annoying. “There’s a party in my tummy, so yummy, so yummy.” (Tag, you’re it. Now it’s your problem.) I find it annoying, but my five-year-old son likes it. And after watching along with him, I can see why. It’s simple, which in this age…

UP!

I got lucky. Erica was slated to review UP!, but it accidentally got shipped to me instead. I had really wanted to see UP! in the theaters, but time just flew by, (pardon the pun,) and I didn’t get to it. When Jackson arrived home from school yesterday, I said, “Guess what arrived in the…
