Fall is here which means we're trading long walks in the park for raking leaves.  Funny thing we have a backyard full of leaves on the ground and all the trees in our backyard of STILL full of leaves.  My husband likes to wait until the trees get a little bare before raking up all the leaves and then he mulches them with our lawnmower for use in our garden.  Still lots of free opportunities for exercise courtesy of Mother Nature.

We are staunch believers in taking care of one's whole self:  mind, body and spirit and always looking for ways to better ourselves.  Recently, Hachette Book Group sent  us a copy of  15 Ways to Live Longer and Healthier by Joel Osteen.

Now, let's shift our focus to getting started with exercise with these five tips:

1. Set Clear Goals: Define what you want to achieve with exercise, whether it's weight loss, increased energy, or improved fitness. Having clear goals will motivate you.

2. Start Small: Begin with manageable workouts. Short sessions can be as effective as longer ones, especially for beginners.

3. Find Enjoyable Activities: Choose exercises you enjoy, whether it's dancing, hiking, or team sports. You're more likely to stick with an activity you find fun.

4. Create a Routine: Schedule your exercise sessions at consistent times. A routine helps establish exercise as a habit.

5. Seek Accountability: Share your goals with a friend or join a fitness class or group. Accountability can be a powerful motivator.

Make sure to set aside a little time for YOU.  You deserve it.

Jeepers! It's January Hop

Happy New Year! What better way to kick off the new year than with a giveaway! I am so excited to join The Mommy Island, The Kids Did It and 90+ other fab blogs in the first big giveaway hop of 2018! Here’s your chance to start the new year off with a win. One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will receive a $15 Walmart eGift card. $10 may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to stock up on some last minute Christmas clearance gifts. Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima

Maple and Brown Sugar Air Fryer Bacon

I've been raving about my Instant Pot but now I have a new favorite... the Air Fryer.   O M G This thing is amazing!  I don't know why I was so late to the Air Fryer craze but I am so glad I am finally onboard.   I've been talking about getting one and then after my aunt posted pics of her new air fryer, that was it off to Best Buy I went.   I wasn't sure how big of a unit I would need but I figured the 2.5 liter would suffice.  I chose the Chefman Express.  It was priced on the shelves for $85 but online for $75.99 and my local store matched the price AND I had my Swagbucks Best Buy QR code so I got 500 SBs + 2 SBs for every dollar spent so that's another 170 SBs.  So, after discounts, my air fryer ended up costing me less than the sale price.  Woohoo! There were some fancy ones on the shelves with digital display but after checking the reviews I figured since I don't fry much this model would suffice. When I think of fried foods, I think

A Pit Stop at Sho Nuff Hot Tamales in Greenville, Mississippi

My cousin and I were driving along and our tummies were rumbling as we crossed the Mississippi state line on US-82.  We didn't really have any particular dish in mind for lunch but we started seeing signs saying "Hot Tamales". "Hot Tamales", my Philly cousin asked. "Yep", I replied nonchalantly.  "I remember reading something about hot tamales being a big thing here in the Delta."   We kept driving and finally decided we would have to try these famous Mississippi Delta hot tamales. Now to decide which one.  There were literally dozens of tamale spots.  We happened upon a restaurant called Sho-Nuff and decided it was the one. We parked and entered the large, delightfully decorated restaurant.  The wall was plastered with local and national awards in recognition of those hot tamales.   There was a sign touting Sho-Nuff as the winner of the local newspaper's favorite restaurant award and 3rd place winner in the annual  Delta Hot Ta
