Ball Park Flame Grilled Patties

I got to try these for Bzz Agent!  I was so disappointed at first, because nowhere I looked had them.  I ended up sending my coupon for a free package to a friend out of state.  Then DH came home today and said, "Guess what I found at the store today!"  They just started stocking them this week!

We had them for dinner tonight.  We bought the beef and cheese variety, since I'm not a beef and onion fan, and those were our only two options.

The burgers themselves had pretty good taste.  I couldn't taste the cheese very well, so I might add a slice next time.  DH said he could taste it though.

He cooked them on the grill, and he said he is glad he did.  He said coming out of the package, they were a pretty sick (not a good sick) color.  He is afraid they would look disgusting if we had just microwaved them instead of throwing them on the grill for some color.

Best burgers ever?  Not really.  Could be thicker, could be a bit more flavorful.  Convenient? Definitely.

children's claritin chewables

we recently received a box of children's claritin chewables from bzzagent.com.  i wish (i guess?? do i ever wish i could give my child medicine?) we could use them, but allergy season hasn't hit here, apparently - not enough for my boy to suffer, anyway.  i will say though, that we have used these in the past.  we used them last year and they were wonderful.  apparently the taste is fine, because my boy chewed them without making a face.  and that's more than i can say for the children's claritin syrup - both he and my nephew both complain about it being "spicy", even though it's grape flavor, and my boy won't take it anymore.

last year, it cleared up symptoms wonderfully.  if allergy season ever hits here this year (it's been a weird winter/spring here... nothing is normal this year!), we'll definitely be using these again!!
