Finally Quaker Oatmeal Cookies

Finally Quaker Oatmeal Cookies


For more than 130 years, Quaker has been inspired by the goodness of the whole grain oat. Quaker Oats is a staple in kitchens across the country, and FINALLY announced the addition of Quaker Oatmeal Cookies to their product line.

Cookies to me should always be soft and doughy – I usually eat half raw cookie dough for that very reason… then I got to try the Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies… ok I’m a little amazed they’re soft right out of the package and if your a microwave fan stick them in there for 20 seconds and now you’ve got a warm cookie thats totally soft and tasty.

I love how they’re wrapped as singles which is great for anyone on a diet where you need to know the carb counts.  It also means its super kid friendly as you can take just one for the road. Available in soft baked & crunchy oat variety – available in several flavors (would they make just one?!) are 170-180 calories each, ofcourse made with whole grains and contain 6-8 grams of fiber and 0 trans fats.

Our friends at Quaker is giving away a $75 gift card and a few boxes of cookies to snack on…

Disney Cars Deluxe Rocking Chair by Delta Children

Disney Cars Deluxe Rocking Chair by Delta Children

Having a toddler really means a mini copy cat… they do whatever you want to do or plan on doings… the best example is prepping food for a meal – whenever we go into the kitchen our child runs in and starts shouting I want to help!

Well when we are sitting on the couch he wants a square – but we’re totally trying to break him of these habits and having furniture that is his size and really build/bought for him makes it much easier.  It also helps to have characters on the item that he really connects with…

From our friends at Delta Children is this great Disney Cars Deluxe Rocking Chair.

  • Cleans easily with mild soap and water
  • Filling polyurethane foam, dimensions 23.75″ x 18.75″ x 18.5″
