Today’s Girls Night Out Might Be Tomorrow’s Sears Washing Machine! ** Although this is a sponsored post, Blissfully Domestic writes about the things that interest us and new ideas we want to share with you - all the opinions expressed are my own.** As my kids have gotten older and more self-sufficient, I have truly discovered the importance of adult time, and especially time with girlfriends to catch up and yes, very important, have fun! As adults, it’s harder to make friends and more important than ever to have those friends who understand where you are coming from and where you are going to (or trying to go to). As important as time is with friends, in my house the budget is just as important. Like using coupons at the grocery store or making sure to cash in those extra … [Read more...]
Mom’s Dream Kitchen Makeover
(Sponsored) This post is sponsored by Sears. All opinions are my own. When I was growing up, I was an only child. Well, I have half siblings, but, unfortunately, we didn't become close until I was an adult. So, when I got married, I knew I wanted a large family. Three to four kids was what I dreamed of. The overachiever that I am had FIVE kids. I have a very modest sized kitchen. I don't know the exact square footage, but I will say that when I'm cooking dinner I would prefer for the kids to NOT be in the kitchen. If one of the kids is getting a drink from the refrigerator and I need to grab the butter, they're in my way. If one of the kids is coming inside from playing outside and needs to wash their hands and I need to rinse the veggies, they're in my way. You can only imagine … [Read more...]

Stay Worry-Free Over the Holidays with Sears Bundled Maintenance Package
( Sponsored) This is a sponsored post on behalf of Sears Home Appliances. All opinions are our own. With the Holidays quickly approaching, it's time to begin thinking about how we'll get a festive meal on the table, all at once, and have the turkey, ham, and each side dish still warm. Otherwise, you'll have a line at the microwave for everyone to warm their plate. I took for granted, as a kid, how Grandma pulled this seemingly impossible feat off each year. Now, I wish I could ask her just how she managed this miraculous task. While I know we would all love to run out and purchase a brand new bundle of beautiful kitchen appliances, I also know this just isn't in all of our budgets this time of year. What we all can do is take great care of the kitchen appliances we currently have. Did … [Read more...]
In the Kitchen with Sears Home Appliances and Service
(Sponsored) This is a sponsored post on behalf of Sears Home Appliances. All opinions are our own. There comes a time in every homeowner's life when she must buy new appliances. I know, the whole thought of replacing an appliance that has essentially become your best kitchen friend can seem daunting. The refrigerator? It's kept all your fruits, veggies, leftovers, and kids' juices nice and cold over the years. The range? It's cooked countless meals, both on its stovetop and in its oven. You can say it single-handedly fed your kids...nah, you still want to take credit for that. The dishwasher? Now, this is my best friend in the kitchen. Without her, my dishes would be piled to the kitchen ceiling. Not joking, I loathe hand washing my dishes. I have a large family, its my excuse. And, … [Read more...]
