Monster Jam Las Vegas and All Star Presale Tickets

March 29, 2019

Living in Las Vegas, we’ve had the luxury to attend the Monster Jam World Finals event over the past few years. However, since the World Finals are being held in Orlando this year, we attended the single day event on March 23rd, 2019.

Disclosure: I am an FEI Family Ambassador, which means Feld Entertainment, Inc or one of its affiliates provided me with complimentary tickets in exchange for my time and efforts in attending shows and reporting my honest opinion within this website

I was disappointed. One day only of Monster Jam? But let me tell you the single day event didn’t disappoint. From Qualifying races, Two Wheel Competition and Free Style Competition my family had a great time. Plus my boys are older, so this year they used their phones to cast in their own votes to help decide the winner.

If you’ve read my past Monster Jam articles, I’m like a broken record. I can’t express how much fun and how family friendly this event is! Monster Jam is the perfect family event for ALL ages. We weren’t able to make it to the Pits this year. Our morning schedule was crazy and that was disappointing. We love the Pits. You get to meet the drivers, get their autographs, see the trucks up close, it’s just a lot of FUN!

But hopefully, we’ll get to do that in a few months. Monster Jam is coming back to Las Vegas in October for their All-Star Competition Event and you can take advantage of the PREFERRED CUSTOMER PRESALE – April 30 Double down tickets, 2 days tickets and pit passes go on sale for Preferred Customersstarting Tuesday’s, April 30.

Oven Baked Hard Boiled Eggs

March 28, 2019

Hard boiled eggs, oven baked? Who would have thought. If you’ve been googling how to hard boil eggs you should really try this. This was so simple, I doubt you’ll go back to boiling eggs again.

One thing I really disliked about hard cooked eggs, is that I never really knew how long to cook them for. I searched How do you boil eggs only to find a variety of ways to do this. The problem I have, is that I don’t know how long you boil eggs for. My eggs would always crack. I don’t know if it was from putting too many eggs in the water or boiling it for too long. It just became a hideous process. I could never get the perfect hard boiled egg. Not to mention when you were done peeling them, some would be so hard to peel. This oven baked hard boiled egg method, made it for easy peeling too.

To get started I just used a cupcake pan, and placed the eggs in a 350 degree oven and baked them for 30 minutes and then let them cool for about 10-15 mins and just watch they’ll be the perfect hard cooked eggs.

Then I started peeling the egg and as you can see peeling was easy! No chunks of eggs, the egg was still pretty perfect.

Now for the real test? Was the yolk perfect… and look here, it sure was.

This DIY project was so simple!! I do have to admit though, my first instinct was I thought they were going to blow up in my oven. They didn’t and I don’t think I’ll ever boil another egg.

Comment below and let me know if you’ve tried this Oven Baked Hard Boiled Egg Method.

How to Tell if an Egg Is Good or Bad

March 28, 2019

How to tell if an egg is good or bad is pretty easy. All you need is water to check and with one simple technique you can easily tell if your egg is good or bad.

I buy a lot of eggs. Usually I’m grabbing about 5 dozen at a time or if I find a sale I’ll stock up and buy even more. We don’t always go through our eggs quick enough. Some months are quicker than others. But since we buy so many at a time I want to ensure I’m always using a good egg.

Here’s how to tell. Grab your sink, bowl, jar whatever and add water to it.

Place the egg in the water . If it sinks to the bottom it’s a good egg. If it floats to the top it’s a bad egg and shouldn’t be consumed.

That’s pretty simple huh! Now you’ll know how to tell if an egg is good or bad. No more guessing and no more wasting money throwing out good eggs!

Are you planning on making some hard boiled eggs soon? If so, be sure to check out my post on using the oven baked method.
