As the New Year rolls around many of us make changes or resolutions to do better in life.  I bet the number one resolution is to lose weight.  Well I'm not making that resolution this year.  I am resolving to work on my health in general.  This should result in weight loss but also better eating and more movement.

Happiness is... Peanuts: Friends Forever DVD!

Warner Home Video released it's latest installment of Peanuts DVDs :  Happiness is... Peanuts: Friends Forever.  All the gang is back and just in time for Valentine's Day!  This DVD features the tv special: Your in Love, Charlie Brown and combines it with an episode of The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show. 


Additional information: 

Your in Love, Charlie Brown:
Charlie Brown has his heart set on meeting the Little Red-Haired Girl on You’re in Love, Charlie Brown, the 1968 Emmy® nominated television special. School is about to let out for summer but all Charlie Brown can think of is how to meet the Little Red-Haired Girl. All his attempts end in embarrassments. He writes her a love note but winds up accidentally reading it out loud to his class. When she tries to approach him during the lunch break, he panics and pulls his lunch bag over his head. He gets up really early one morning in hopes of catching her at her bus stop but winds up falling asleep and misses the bus. Will it be a summer of heartbreak for Charlie Brown or will he manage to connect with the Little Red-Haired Girl before school lets out?

Happiness is…Peanuts™: Friends Forever, also includes an episode from The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show, featuring skits based on Peanuts strips created by Charles M. Schulz. 

  • Kite Eating Tree – Charlie Brown visits Lucy’s psychiatry booth for advice on fighting the kite-eating tree.

  • Sally – Pretending to be a WWI Flying Ace, Snoopy steals Sally’s report for school.

  • Camp – Charlie Brown is sent home from camp for being a “troublemaker.” Peppermint Patty tells Linus that she cried when she saw him kiss the Little-Red Haired girl.

  • Lucy Loves Schroeder – Lucy puts Schroeder’s piano in the washer and dryer after she breaks up with him.

  • Scared Snoopy – Snoopy sees Lucy at her psychiatry booth because he’s been hearing noises at night but later refuses to pay his bill. 

Our thoughts:

I don't know if I said this before but my kids really enjoy the Peanuts Gang.  They were super excited to receive this and loved the theme of Valentine's Day.  Do you watch holiday themed movies with your little ones?  We have a few titles for each holiday and they will pull them out when the time of year rolls around.  They both were excited about the tv show episodes.  Those really crack them up!  This DVD is a wonderful addition to your collection and a great choice for the Valentine Season!

This DVD is available at your local stores or on Amazon.com

Shoprite "Cans For Fans" & Can Can Sale!


I LOVE Shoprite's Can Can sale!! The jingle is so catchy and the savings so good!! This year Shoprite is doing something wonderful!  For every "LIKE"  Shoprite gets on Facebook they will donate one can of food to local food banks.  Last year they donated 40,000 cans of food for their 40th anniversary.  I bet with a little social networking help we can help them top that!!  What an easy way to support our communities as well!!

Here are the details:
Can Can Sale has become extra special with the “Cans for Fans” Facebook program, which enables fans to get involved in the fight against hunger. During the 2012 Can Can Sale (1/5 – 1/21), ShopRite will donate one can of food (up to 50,000 cans) to local food banks in the communities it serves, on behalf of every new ShopRite Facebook fan.


You can also visit Shoprite's "Get Can Canned" website to upload a personal photo and become a virtual ShopRite Can Can dancer; the image can be emailed to friends, shared via your personal blog, Facebook or Twitter account, or posted to ShopRite's official Facebook page.
