Featured today on Theresa’s Reviews, you can check out a tutorial on how to enjoy summer with delicious non-dairy options with @HaagenDazs_US from @GiantFood .

I add dairy-free toppings, such as pretzels or dried cranberries, for a simple and fantastic dessert.

This summer, we haven't visited new and exciting places, but I'm making the most of the time I am spending with my family. What were your favorite accomplishments for the past week? . . . . .

1 month ago by theresa_reviews Hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July celebration yesterday! Let's talk independence. Are your children allowed to roam free, or do you constantly keep an eye on them? We are reaching a point where all the other kids seem to get more freedom (according to my daughter). One thing I'm working on this summer is confronting my own fears and allowing more freedom, even if it means I will worry! Letting kids explore the neighborhood gives them a sense of accomplishment. What are your thoughts on supervising your kids and letting them explore? Share in the comments! . .
