    I'm a big fan of the stay-at-home date night - no parking or waiting for a table. And at the end of a long day of work and hustling the kids around, the last thing I want to do is dress up and go out. I throw on some comfy PJs and curl up on the couch for an easy evening with a favorite show or a new movie!  Of course, we love enjoying a snack while we watch together.

    Mr. Juggling Act and I are also big fans of air popped popcorn and creating fun flavor combinations. For me,  I'm in love with all things sweet and salty, and this Chocolate Almond Sea Salt Popcorn is just perfect for our date nights at home.  It's a chance for us to unwind together, and destress from the day with fun entertainment.
