Hey Mama Hey!!! It’s Friiiiiday! Two things are going down this weekend:
- There is a major snow storm heading our way
- It’s a 3 day weekend-Happy MLK Weekend!

Are you panicked? Have you stocked up on wine? I definitely think you need to stock up on wine but there is no need to be panicked. Mama Fresh has your back.
We are Chicagoans…a little snow doesn’t stop us! Trust me after a few hours of being in the house with your busy little ones you will need this list. You will be ready to get out the house and let them run off some of that energy.
Below are my Mama Freshly Picked Events. Starting with my:
