With all the attention given to our precious little ones, sometimes Mom’s and Gramma’s needs get put on the back burner. Treat yourself, or a deserving Mom, to the Ma Mi Skin Care Gift Kit…glowing, vital skin can make anyone feel great about themselves. This wonderful gift kit includes a complete skincare protocol!

  • Reawaken Cleanser – A completely natural, rose hip foamer will calm, clean, soothe and tone! It’s enriched with a combination of rose hip seed, seaweed and essential oils to provide a complete spectrum of skin nourishment and protection every time mom cleans her face. Very gentle yet very thorough cleanser that gets your face clean without over drying!

  • Radiant Exfoliator“Glycolic is a natural fruit acid so it exfoliates without any abrasion or skin damage.” I have very sensitive skin and the active ingredient “Glycolic acid” is something I have to be very careful with. If you have sensitive skin like I do, test this on a small area, and only leave on very short time before rinsing off.

  • Satiated Moisturizer – This superb combination of Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring element in our bodies that provides fabulous hydration by attraction 1,000 times it’s weight in moisture. Then they add Jojoba Oil and Apricot Kernal Oil to improve tissue hydration, oxygenation, and lubrication! It also makes ya look younger and your skin appear smoother and and silkier. Lets be honest, This Mommy is also a Grandmommy! :) I need a good moisturizer! This is FABU!!! Especially when my Little Guy is here.. I rush rush rush! I don’t have time to be dabbling in skin care! So I need something that WoRkS! This is it! Thank you Ma Mi! Woo Hoo! I may be a Gramma, but I don’t wanna look like one!

  • Nightshift Eye Serum – Finally an answer for tired, puffy eyes and dark circles! Nightshift Eye Serum contains an active complex of soy and rice peptides, yeast protein, hyaluronic acid and seaweed extract. Not only does this powerhouse reduce puffiness and dark circles, it also enhances skin firmness, prevents UV damage, decreases free radicals and smoothes and softens skin!

I believe the eye area is the first area to show the age on my face! Plus when I don’t get enough sleep I look like I was hit with a ten pound bag of rocks! No worries with Nightshift Eye Serum! Woo Hoo! It eases the puffy tired eye look and diminishes the dark circles so I’m looking kinda cute again ;)

Driscoll’s Berries {Giveaway} ~ 5 Winners

  • Sharebar


GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
I love berries! I bet you do too! You’ve probably heard of Driscoll’s Berries and seen them in your local market. The Driscoll’s story began in 1904 when friends Joseph “Ed” Reiter and R.O. Driscoll began producing delicious sweet Briar Strawberries in California’s Pajaro Valley.

More than a century later, the tradition continues and we are enjoying more than strawberries! Driscoll’s Berries has a berry to delight every berry lover!

I was Blessed to receive a few coupons for Driscoll’s Berries so I could review these sweet little gems! First of all My Little Guy loves Driscoll’s Strawberries!! I was going to use these for a recipe, ha! They never made it that far. That’s ok! Fresh, ripe strawberries can’t be beat! I gave Hotty Patotty his own Driscoll’s Strawberry and he devoured it in no time flat!

There’s just something about Driscoll’s Strawberries that reminds me of summer! They’re sweet, juicy and so good! Hubby and I washed ‘em and just sat and ate ‘em with the whole family right out of the bowl while we were sitting around the table gabbing and having family time!


Selecting a Perfect Strawberry
When selecting your strawberry, look for symmetrically shaped berries with a brilliant sheen and rich, even red color. Look for strawberries that are clean and dry with fresh, unwilted caps. Avoid strawberries with seedy tips or white shoulders.

Care & Handling
It’s important to treat your strawberries with TLC. Berries taste best when kept chilled. For best results, Driscoll’s recommends that you store your strawberries in their original container. Always refrigerate your berries immediately and don’t wash them until you are ready to use them. Gently rinse berries with the green caps still on, under cool water. After washing, remove the green caps. Allowing strawberries to reach room temperature before serving will enhance their natural flavors. Berries need to be rinsed just before use.

Here’s an easy summer recipe I’m going to try with my next batch of strawberries :)
Strawberry Caprese Pasta Salad
Serves 4-6
Prep time – 20 minutes

Ingredients
8 Driscoll’s Strawberries
8 shell pasta, cooked, rinsed & cooled
8 fresh mozzarella balls, drained
1/4 cup slivered fresh basil
1/4 cup slivered red onion
1/4 cup prepared balsamic vinaigrette

Instructions

1. Rinse, hull and quarter strawberries.
2. Combine strawberries, pasta, mozzarella, basil and onion in a large bowl. (Can be prepared to this point and refrigerated until ready to serve.)
3. Drizzle with vinaigrette and mix gently until ingredients are well coated.

Lighten Up Tip
Lighten up the recipe – Use reduced fat or reduced calorie balsamic vinaigrette.

Driscoll’s Berries also has the best….

You may think I have a ton just laying around my house. No way! My sister took a bottle. Both my daughters took a bottle. I have NONE! It’s always a good idea to keep Pepto-Bismol in the house so you’ll have it when, not if those stomach troubles rear their ugly head!

Pepto-Bismol Maximum Strength Liquid
I may be crazy but I like the original flavor of Pepto!  I love that this is maximum strength!

Think you’ve got what it takes?  Stop by the Pepto-Bismol booths at local festivals and enter for a chance to take on Joey Chestnut!  Bring your Pepto-Bismol Maximum Strength Liquid Click HERE for more info and a timeline of events!

In the morning when I creep into my kitchen at the crack of dawn I have a smile on my face every single day because I adore my big beautiful kitchen! It screams Leslie. I love my bowls, and serving pieces and all the things I’ve collected over the years that make my house my “home sweet home!”

I was Blessed to receive the Rosanna, Inc Boho Dessert Plates from Layla Grayce for review.  These six coordinating, charming plates can be used for either salad or dessert!  Each round scalloped dessert plate is reminiscent of a foreign land!  Elegant and simple. These dishes are sure to become one of your favorite serving sets!

Have you ever gone out on a hot day and thought you were all that and a bag of chips? Then went to re-apply your lipstick only to find it in a puddle in the bottom of your purse. Not feeling like a bag of chips anymore huh? Kinda feeling like a crumb? That’s me in the Georgia heat! Even worse, recently My Little Guy had an ear infection and I had to carry his antibiotics with me. It’s crucial to keep that cool. I had rigged up a bag with cool packs and it was a nightmare.

No more of those shenanigans now that I found the Cool-It Caddy!

I was Blessed to receive my very own Bronze Cool-It Caddy for review! How cute is this?! No more ugly freezie packs! No more finagling with ice cubes that melt and make a mess! This very stylish bag is all ya need!

Here’s what you do. Put a small towel inside your Cool-It Caddy and stick in the freezer! This will keep the interior opened up so you’ll have room to place your items inside! I keep my Cool-It Caddy in the freezer when I’m not using it so it’s always ready, but overnight is best so it’s nice and chilled! The interior is fully insulated, air tight and leak proof!

I like the two outside zippered and snap pouches which are super handy for I.D., credit cards, cash, or what have you! You even have a little mirrored flap so you can see to apply your un-melted lipstick!


The Cool-It Caddy is perfect for….

  • Keeping makeup from melting in the heat
  • Keeping snacks from becoming unhealthy
  • Maintaining medications at proper temperatures
  • Nursing mothers who need to store breast milk for a short time (my daughter pointed this out to me!)
  • Bringing your soy, rice or almond milk to that fancy coffee place! :)

You get the idea!!!

The Cool-It Caddy is the perfect size for carrying on short trips as your ‘clutch’ bag and it’s small enough to stash in a larger bag or tote! Cool-It Caddy is available in a variety of pretty colors! There’s even a Cool-It Caddy for Men Price ~ $39.95

  • Sharebar


GIVEAWAY OPEN TO ENTRIES WORLD WIDE
GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
I love my kigos! Oh! heheh maybe you don’t know what kigos are…. just yet! But you will! Have you ever had one of those days? You know what kind of day I’m talking about? The kind where your dogs are barking! They aren’t just barkin’, they’re howling! But the rest of your body is actually feeling pretty good! You want to go out and whoop it up a bit but your feet are telling you “No No No?” It’s time for kigo footwear!

kigo footwear is lightweight, durable, eco-friendly and stylish! It’s nothing crazy or outlandish, nothing over the top! It’s back to basic, good for you and the earth footwear!  I’m feeling super jazzed about my kigos!

Whether your an outdoor enthusiast, exercise lover, hiker or just love a comfy pair of shoes for all kinds of activities kigo footwear has you covered

I was Blessed to receive a pair of kigo edge shoes for review! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this unisex slip on style shoe! I almost feel a twinge of guilt that I got these for me instead of Hubby the Hubster because when he saw them he said “NICE!” That means he loves ‘em too! They are so neat! These shoes can be worn on the beach or hiking and no dirt will get into the shoe! That’s because they are a full coverage shoe.

FEATURES

  • Lightweight -weighs approximately 4 oz. per shoe!
  • Stylish – This unisex shoe looks great with shorts or jeans!
  • Made from eco-friendly materials – Including water-based adhesives, CYCLEPET uppers, recycled nylon lining and non-toxic dyes
  • Six color combos
  • Comfortable – Protective rubber toe cap. Fixed webbing loop on the heel for quick and easy on and off. Low cut foot hole for full ankle movement

kigo shoes tend to run small, so if you are a half size, kigo recommends that you buy the next size up. The shoes are designed to stretch once they are on your foot, and they will soften slightly as they are broken in.

Click HERE to purchase the kigo edge. Price – $69.99

I didn’t receive these but I wanted to show you the kigo curv! How cute are these?! The kigo curv is a Mary Jane style designed for women who want style and minimalist comfort. These would be great for commuting, outdoors, athletic activities or everyday wear! Price – $69

Umi ~ a little love for little feet ~ Review

  • Sharebar


At Umi, they build real children’s shoes. Not floppy leather slipper socks. And not miniature grown-up shoes. They know a lot about growing feet. Front to back. Side to side. Top to bottom. Umi shoes are designed with children’s feet in mind.

I know our economy is tough but shoes are something I just do not skimp on! I have a story for you! A few day ago my Daughter brought My Little Guy over in a ‘cute looking‘ pair of shoes. They didn’t appear to fit properly and when I asked her where she had gotten them she told me the name of a huge chain store known for bargains! Not two second later the baby, who is now running, tripped and fell over his own feet and bashed his face on my coffee table and split his lip open. I was heart broken!

My daughter loves shoes, and although I have given her quite a few pair of shoes for the baby she didn’t realize the importance of correct fitting, well made shoes. She does now!

Umi has years of experience under their belt making shoes for little people! That’s all they do :) Yup they’re good at it!

Each shoe is tested for safety and durability and meets strict guidelines for child-safe materials! Only non-toxic materials are used and eco-friendly recycled packing makes me one happy Gramma!

I was Blessed to receive the Pilot for review! I have two daughters! I had no idea boys were so darned rough! Thank goodness these shoes are just as tough and meant to last! Genuine and synthetic leather upper is meant to take all the abuse my little guy dishes out! These shoes won’t fall apart like dime store shoes do!

When you run your fingers along the inside of the shoe all you feel is smooth! No rough seams to irritate tender little feet! Umi’s are easy peasy to get on My Little Guy’s squirmy feet into! The velcro closures open waaaayyy up so I can slip his little feet in and pop ‘em right on! I have a devil of a time getting some other brands on him!

My Little Guy walks runs really well in his Umi Pilots! No tripping or stumbling! They’re a great shoe with a proper fit and I feel at ease knowing he’s wearing a proper fitting shoe!
Price ~ $65. 00

With six ‘out of this world’ flavor combinations you’re gonna find yourself dipping into that adorable box again and again and again!

True Nut Company began as a philanthropic venture when Steve Ryder had a simple idea, develop a snack business that showcased local ingredients with community support at its core!

He developed a line of Maple Roasted Almonds that will knock your socks off! They’re all natural, contain no preservatives or oils either!
Wanna know more about the The True Nut Company? Watch this nutty video :)

I was Blessed to receive a True Nut Company Maple Roasted Almond Sampler for review! I’m in nutty Heaven! These are some of the best almonds I have ever tasted!

  • Original Maple Roasted Almonds – A little sweet a little salty. These are for the purist in the bunch!
  • Maple Ginger Roasted Almonds – Ginger, Cinnamon and Sea Salt!
  • Maple Cinnamon Roasted Almonds – Real Saigon Cinnamon, which has the highest has the highest essential oil content of all cinnamons gives these almonds a truly wonderful flavor. They’re a tad salty and I love to sprinkle a few on my oatmeal for a yummo crunch!
  • Maple Basil Roasted Almonds – Call me crazy but these little gems are out of this world tossed in pasta salad and topped on a fresh green salad! Soooo delicious!
  • Maple Cayenne Roasted Almonds – I love my food highly seasoned and these spicy little nuts are right up my alley! They’re are a curry maple flavored explosion of flavor in your mouth! LOVE LOVE LOVE!
  • Maple Coconut Roasted Almonds – Hubby loves these extra crunchy almonds! They actually have flaked coconut added to enhance their flavor!

Invitation Consultants ~ $75 Gift Certificate Giveaway ~ US & Canada

  • Sharebar

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED

Ordering Invitations, Calling Cards, Stationery, Notepads, Gifts, Partyware and more online should be easy right? It is now thanks to Invitation Consultants!! They’re experts at what they do. You can email or chat live if you have questions about their products.

Their website is easy to navigate and they have a huge selection of beautiful products that are modern and affordable!

Invitation Consultants carry a few Breast Cancer Awareness related stationery items! They have some invitations, as part of their in-house Red Leaf Papers line that are more than just pretty in pink too!

These invitations are vibrant and feminine, but also support a good cause. A portion of the profits generated by these invitations goes to support the Pink Initiative. Pink Initiative is an organization comprised of wedding industry professionals, as well as private donors, who are dedicated to funding awareness, outreach, education & research for breast cancer.

I was Blessed to receive Monogrammed Calling Cards for review!
Calling Cards offer a unique and stylish alternative to business cards! After all Blogging is an alternative business. Up until now I’ve made my own ‘business’ cards. Trust me when I tell you they were nothing special!

Invitation Consultants Calling Cards are professional and polished and present a really pretty clean look! Invitation Consultants offer a lot of choices and trust me when I tell ya there is nothing old fashioned or stuffy about these Calling Cards! The colors are bold, the designs are modern but not overdone or gaudy! All the cards can be customized to your liking!

I chose the Monogrammed Calling Card because I like simple, clean and uncomplicated lines! (I’m using Invitation Consultants picture because mine was too small). I was able to customize and personalize my card so it came out just the way I wanted! The colors and fonts are your choice! Of course what you have printed on your card is up to you as well!

My cards arrived in record time and are exactly what I ordered! The card is a beautiful quality, which is important so your cards won’t become dog eared in your wallet!

My card says:

Be sure to stop by Invitation Consultants and peruse their website! It’s never too early to start thinking about Holiday Cards :)
