More Pictures To Explain Life

A couple of months ago I had the opportunity to host a giveaway on my frugal blog for Betty Crocker. I got a new pan and cookie mix to product test, review, and then give away another set! It was not rigged, but my mom actually won the giveaway!

Meanwhile, Brianna and I had a ball making the cookies to product test and review!

The mailing paper was perfect for Brianna to color on!

She loves making cookies! (Loves eating them more!)
