{How to} Become a Super Mom on Wheels

Heelys Shoes

Are you a Busy Mom?

“Busy Mom” – isn’t that pretty redundant? I mean seriously, is there any other kind of mom? Are there moms out there who aren’t busy? Are there really moms out there who complete full to-do lists each day, who’s kids always wear clean, matching socks, who have never fed their children Ramen Noodles for dinner?{If you’re a totally un-busy mom, please – and I mean PLEASE! – share your tips with the rest of us. The comment section welcomes your words of wisdom. Seriously.} Ahem, back to the rest of us…. Get prepared for an amazing solution that will help you complete twice the work in half the time. Ready? Keep reading…

Busy Mom Solution!

Ok, this may not be a solution for everyone. Or for every day. And probably not everywhere. But – how about getting a pair of Heelys? I know what you’re thinking – “Are Heelys those shoes I see the kids at the mall zooming around on? Are those the shoes my kids have been just begging for, because all the “cool” kids have them? Are you kidding me?” – Yes, yes, and not at all. Heelys + You = Super Mom on Wheels. Yep. Don’t call me crazy – keep reading!

How Heelys can help you be more productive:

  • Late getting the kids ready in the morning? No problem! You’ve got your Heelys on – skate through the house, swoop through the kitchen grabbing backpacks and lunch bags as you gracefully zoom back to the front door and kiss them goodbye as they head to the bus stop. Done.
  • Need groceries? With your Heelys, you can skate through the store so fast, you’ll feel like you’re on Supermarket Sweep! {Don’t make me feel old – someone else remembers this right? “Hey, the next time you’re at the checkout counter and you hear the beep, think of all the fun you can have on, Supermarket Sweep!”} Those people looking at you weird while you roll at top speed through the grocery store? Jealous. Done.
  • It’s dinner time, the babies crying in the living room, the timer on the oven is going off, laundry needs to go into the dryer, the table needs to be set – you know, the regular daily tasks of us Super Moms. This USED to stress you out. Not anymore. Now you’re a Super Mom on WHEELS. One quick swoop through the house with your shoes of speed – Done!

Ready to learn more?

Of course you are! You’re so ready to buy these – you’ve got a credit card in hand, reading this post on your smartphone as you run to the car {you have to run, you don’t have wheels yet} eagerly waiting for me to tell you where to drive to and buy 2 pairs of these amazing Busy Mom Solution shoes. Then, you stop in amazement, as I tell you that you can buy these right from HOME. Yes, it’s true. You can purchase Heelys from their website, from Amazon, or other major retailers. These Heelys folks, they’re pretty amazing.

Super Sweet Deal on Heelys

Heelys is throwing a Black Friday special!! Between Nov 25-Nov 28, Buy any pair of Heelys, get the second pair for $25. Or buy a Nano, and get a pair of shoes for $25, and get free ground shipping on all orders!

Wanna Race?

You know I’m always here to share my favorite Busy Mom Solutions with you guys – and clearly, this is a perfect way to be transformed from a regular, super-busy, Super Mom – to an incredibly awesome Super Mom on Wheels! Use this power wisely, and obey those signs that say “No skating inside the store.” Using the all purpose explanation, “Because I’m the mommy – THAT’S why,” may not go over well with mall security. And don’t forget to read their other safety tips too – Heelys Safety Playbook. And if I see you zooming through your grocery shopping in half the time, just like me, I’m going to challenge you to a race in the frozen foods aisle. Just sayin’.

Connect with Heelys:

{Disclaimer: Those amazing folks at Heelys gave me this sweet pair of Heelys to try out, so that I could share my real-life, totally honest, experience. And I love being a Super Mom on Wheels now. You will too. Get ’em. I’ll race you.}

Super Fun Bake Pops Ideas!! #baking #holidays #recipes

Bake Pop Ideas

Who Loves Bake Pops?

Heck I know I do! I think that these are one of the funnest baking ideas to come around in a long time. {Is funnest even a word?….} So, if you’re like me, and love Bake Pops, and love fun holiday baking ideas, you’ll love this post! You’ll learn some super creative ideas, and find out why using the Bake Pop pans are WAAAY easier than making pops by hand!

Why I love Bake Pops

We just got our Bake Pop set last Friday – and I am SO excited to start creating some fun goodies! And the set is pretty impressive – it comes with so much stuff. Check it out – the deal is still available:

Get the Bake Pop Double Kit – 150 Pieces of Baking Fun!! Only $19.99!!

This little gadget makes it SO easy to make fun baked goodies that look like you’re a pro – even if you’re not! {I love to bake, but am super likely to run into total catastrophes! Lol.} You whip up any cake mix – from scratch or from a box – pour it into the Bake Pop pans, cook ’em up, pop ’em out, then dip ’em and decorate! It is seriously so easy peasy to make them look really impressive!

Love From the Oven:

The first pic above is from Love from the Oven – she has SO many absolutely adorable ideas! This is a really simple Bake Pop – just dipped and covered in sprinkles – then she simply put it in a cellophane bag, and tied on a printable card with ribbon. How fun would this be for a bake sale, kids birthday party, or gifts? So easy, so pretty!

Cake Pop IdeasAnother fun idea: This one comes from Bake Me a Wish – and again, shows you how even just super simple decorating can give you a really cool dessert by using the Bake Pop system!! She dipped these Bake Pops into melted Candy Melts, then covered them with fun sprinkles. She’s got some great tips – but she makes her Bake Pops by hand, and shares some of the problems you can run into doing it this way. That’s why I love my Bake Pop maker! I don’t have to worry about rolling ’em up and keeping them held together.

Bake Pops IdeasMore super fun ideas: If you’re looking for some really fun ideas for your Bake Pop pans, check out this adorable book – Bake Me I’m Yours…Cake Pops: Over 30 designs for fun sweet treats – it’s filled with 30 amazing ideas to make for holidays, birthdays, parties, or just for after-school snacks to impress the kiddo’s! You’ll find a ton of other great books on Amazon too, filled with great recipes for unique cake mixes, fillings, candy coatings, and more.

I LOVE BAKE POPS!!

Have I already said that I love my new Bake Pops kit?? We’ve made brownie pops, dipped in chocolate candy melts, and rolled in one of four toppings – coconut, chopped almonds, oreo cookie crumbs, or chocolate sprinkles. And we made super-yummy French Vanilla Bake Pops, covered with cherry flavored frosting and Edible Pink Glitter – one of my favorite baking “secret weapons” that help make it look like I’m a real master of the kitchen. I’ll share pictures soon! They came out amazingly pretty!
