  2. Love your post about the sugary cereals. I have four kids and finding the right food to start their day off is so important! Have you ever tried Dee's Cereal? I've heard they are coming out with a new product line, offering an Apple Cinnamon flavor. There are 18 all natural ingredients inside. There are many ways to prepare it and add it to muffin recipes! I thought I would share!
    Thanks!
