Past Interviews with MckMama and MckDaddy

Yesterday's post brought back lots of memories when everyone was listing their "aha!" moments. Within those comments, there were multiple references to previous interviews that have taken place with MckMama over the years. For some of the readers here, portions of these interviews were their "aha!" moments.

At the suggestion of a couple commenters here, I am putting the links to these videos in this post since a number of readers said that they had never seen some of them.

* If I am missing any others that you would like to see added to this list, please let me know:

Strawberry & Peach Sorbet | NONNY'S WAY

My Mom is here to share a recipe today! She goes by Nana. But when our son began to talk, he would call her | NONNY | I have always thought it was cute. It never really did stick, but thought it would be fun to use it here on the blog. ;-)

So here is the recipe | Nonny's Way |
You will need...
  • 4 cups strawberries, frozen, do not thaw
  • 4 cups peach halves, frozen, do not thaw
  • 4 cups white grape juice
  • 2 cups ice
  • 1 can whipped cream for garnish
  • 8 large strawberries, fresh & washed, pat dry
How to make this yummy treat...
  • Mix the first four ingredients together in a blender or smoothie machine until mixed well.
  • Divide evenly into 8 parfait glasses or sorbet dishes.
  • Top each with whipped cream
  • Add 1 strawberry to each dessert
Enjoy the Yum!

When was your Aha! Moment?

* Alternatively Titled:
How did you accidentally end up here?


This is something that comes up a lot here and I know similar posts have been done on this in the past, but I always think it's pretty interesting.

Since we seem to always have new visitors here, I think it's nice to do a post like this periodically.

So, when was your "aha!" moment?

Mayfaire Lane | Review


Mayfair Lane has the gift market buzzing with its innovative products and fresh
 designs. Its patent-pending Happeez® product line is made up of simple, classic gifts that take gift-giving to a whole new level by virtue of their being both uniquely stylish as well as extremely practical.





I was so excited when I got my goodies in the mail from Mayfair Lane. I was lucky enough to get some Happeez clips reading TODAY, TOMORROW & EVENTUALLY. These are great clip magnets will go on stainless steel refrigerators, mirrors, glass and more! They don’t leave any residue and can be used over and over. I also got a beautiful Happeez Frame in the majestic floral black and white design. It also has a special grip that will stick on just about anything. I love it. I put it up immediately with a picture of me and my sweetheart in it. Then there was the bag. WOW! I love bags. I got a striped multi-use bag. It can be used for a gift, lunch, quick trip to the store or a kid treasure bag when going out to dinner. I love it. They have many great organizational products too that are amazing.

A few I didn’t mention that you have to see….


Happeez Notepad:Same great grip that the clips and photo frames have. Stick and restick again and again. Pads measure 5″ x 8″ and include 50 lined sheets.


Happeez Photo Whiteboards…. These hold a 4″ x 6″ photo and measure 8.5″ x 11″ with the same revolutionary material grips that stick to just about any surface with out leaving residue.


Pretty Pleez List Pads…. Made from heavy, bright white paper stock, each pad includes 50 lightly ruled sheets for better organization. Chic and stylish designs to brighten up any room. They measure at 4″ x 8.5″.
Things that I Love...
  • Styles to fit any home, office, kids room, kitchen, ect.
  • Helps with organizing
  • Great for lists – keep it on the fridge or pantry door
  • Special material that grips to just about everything with NO residue
  • Personalize your whiteboard with a photo
