It’s that time of year, all 2012 Entertainment Books are now 50% OFF with FREE SHIPPING. That means that the 2012 Entertainment books just went on sale for $15 in almost all areas (usually they are $35 so that is an amazing $20 savings). This is one of my top recommendations for great savings, especially [...]
This week I began the first of the many many projects it will take to get our home from chaos to function so I thought I’d give you all a little update. It definitely is true that getting even bits done can accomplish such a huge lift mentally. Although we still have a long ways [...]
I have a goal. It’s kind of a big one and seems a little daunting to me at the moment but it isn’t unreasonable. In fact, I know that if I setup the steps I know I need to take I can totally attain this goal by the deadline. I’ve said it a million times, [...]
As February enters most of us start thinking about the end of Winter and looking forward to Spring. With that comes a lot of snow clothes, holiday decorations and much purging to be done. Of course, in my home there’s always a lot of clutter, but finding clever and convenient storage solutions can be the [...]
If I think about the top 10 things I’m asked in day to day life with 6 boys, definitely one of them would be “How on earth can you afford to keep them all clothed?” Then there’s always the temptations of this season’s cutest shoes ever for myself!

Yesterday I mentioned how much I love honey for cooking, but did you know that I’m really starting to get into making beauty products for myself as well? Believe it or not, it’s super simple, amazing for your skin and you know exactly what you’re putting on your body. Think about it for a minute. [...]
Wouldn’t it be nice to have a coupon for everything you buy and anywhere you shop? Well, although that isn’t entirely possible, one of the best sources for online coupons and savings is definitely Savings.com. Quite possibly one of the things I love about this site most is their Savings Pledge. The pledge involves committing [...]
This year all 6 of my sons are going to be in school. While this may not seem particularly monumental to anyone but me, it also brings a mile-long list of supplies that need to be purchased for the collective masses. Money is tight, my dollar doesn’t go nearly as far as it used to [...]
As we talk about Back-to-school we simply have to mention lunches. This year I’m going to do a little more than mention it though as we delve into great lunch ideas and in an effort to go completely green in the lunch department, Bento will be key. From supplies to recipes and great sites for [...]
Welcome to A Frog In My Soup! My name is Shera and I am the mom behind the "Soup" or the "Frogs" whichever you happen to be reading about. My hubby and I have been married for 18 years. We have 6 sons that frequent these pages: CJ (16), Salesman (13), Tater (12), J-Man (8) & The TwinkyDinks (or Tweebs depending on their mood) - Bugs & Monkey (6 & 6).
