Mikarose Katherine Dress Review and Giveaway

        Okay, as much as I love being that go to person for product recommendations - I am not into shopping for clothes.  Yes, I think I have style but it is just very different shopping for myself.  I have such an awkward figure since I am so busty on top.  I tend to have quite an odd taste that is across the board in style.

Xlear Sinus Care Neti Review and Giveaway

        Towards the end of last year I discovered an awesome company with a range of products that can help out you and your family in an extremely natural way.   Xlear, founded by Dr. Alonzo H. Jones in June of 2000, manufactures all-natural and health enhancing products.  They are "recognized as one of the leading manufacturers of xylitol products."  I was recently given the amazing news that I chosen as one of the Lucky Xlear Blog Ambassadors!  As I explained previously this meant I would be able to bring you first hand news about the amazing products they offer, so here is the first of hopefully many!

ProgressOh! Make-Oh-ver Experience - Progresso Light Soups Review and Giveaway

#MyBlogSpark! #ProgressOh!

        One of my favorite things about going into a cooler season is the different kinds of warm cooking you get to do.  I was once told a long time ago that during the hottest days of summer, if you are trying to cool off you should have a hot cup of coffee or espresso (which is what I was offered on my vacation).  Even though I've heard that several times after and believe it, something still seems strange about drinking a hot beverage to cool down.  Obviously, I love to cook for the holidays but in before, in between, and after, I'm all about two things (and sometimes they even go together) - My crock pot and SOUP.

        The fall and winter give me even more of an excuse to chow down on soup.  Don't get me wrong I still eat it all summer long but I have a better appreciation for it in the cold weather.  There's just something about the way it warms your tummy.  Because of the dieting I've started this past year, I feel as though I have become a soup conisour.  I do love to make my own from scratch but come on who has that kind of time on their hands (especially with my two crazy boys).  One of the soups I am always loading my cart with at the grocery store is Progresso!  There was even a great coupon matchup deal this past week to get it super cheap at Kroger!

        Recently I was asked by Blog Spark to do another review for Progresso Light Soups in honer of their ProgressOh! Make-Oh-ver experience in Hollywood.  I of course said yes but it wasn't like I didn't know what to expect or what I'd be getting.  If you want to send me something I love why in the world would I say no about it.  I received the Light Creamy Potato with Bacon and Cheese and Light Chicken Pot Pie Style along with a few other feel good items.  These two Progresso Light creamy soups are part of the lineup of more than 40 flavorful soups.

        Both Kevin and I had to have soup for lunch over the next few days to try these out and of course our other favorite Progresso Soups.  Kevin had the Light Creamy Potato with Bacon and Cheese  and said although it was good, he was a bit disappointed that it didn't have as many chunky pieces as the original but of course that's because this is the light version (which he doesn't need to necessarily eat).  I actually skipped on the Chicken Pot Pie and left it for Kevin as my favorite is their High Fiber Creamy Tomato Basil.  MMmmm....this went perfect with a light sprinkle of asiago cheese!!

        Be sure to check out the ProgressOh! Make-Oh-ver experience going on right now.  Progresso is giving you the chance to win the ultimate ProgressOh! Make-Oh-ver experience in Hollywood*! Three lucky grand prize winners will get to take the ultimate trip full of ProgresOh! experiences – from a head-to-toe makeover to sightseeing in LA!

Cost: $May Vary Store to Store
Available to purchase:  Store Locator
Progresso $1/4 Coupon
Recommendation:  I feel as though I am offering up my family a healthy and enjoyable meal when cooking with Progresso.  These soups create anything but boring or simple that's for sure!

Magic White Board Review

         You know its funny in all this green friendly talk and movement towards being more environmentally conscious, it seems like people have forgotten about a few of the first main ways we started recycling.  The first thing I remember recycling back in elementary school was paper.  Plain and simple paper.  I still of course recycle paper as I am sure most everyone tries to but we don't really talk about the ways we can save on paper and trees.

         When I first heard about this next company I was excited to give it a try until it actually arrived.  Magic White Board Products wanted to get a feel for what others thought about their products and when I first read the description I thought it seemed pretty cool.  They are reusable dry erase sheets that stick with static cling to any hard surface.  Then it arrived and seemed almost chintsy.

         That again was in poor judgement on my part as I hadn't even given it the chance to think the product completely through.  These reusable sheets are the size of a normal piece of paper which you can write, erase, and rewrite on with a dry erase marker.  These are great for shopping lists, for school class notes (at any level), or even for your children who seem to make one scribble on each piece of paper they get their little hands on.

         So after some researching and brainstorming I think these can prove to be great to use on the go or anywhere really.  The best part is there is no mounting to the wall or sticky adhesives left behind when you decide to move it.  "Sticks with static to wood, drywall or glass."  The only complaint I have no is that we noticed that after leaving the writing on the sheet for more than a day it actually bubbled or raised the sheet in the areas where the marker was thus leaving a permanent but invisible mark on the sheet.

Cost/Available to purchase: $15.99 - Magic Letter Sheets – White (20 sheets in each pack)
Recommendation:  These are a very eco-friendly alternative to normal paper.  I think for the price these are great and these would be great for any teacher, parent, or professional.

Re-Body Green Coffee Chews Review and Giveaway

        Exercise can sometimes just be hard to fit into some of our daily schedules especially bloggers.  The worst part is that even if you are active, burning the belly fat is the most difficult of all for women in particular.  So what if you could target burning specifically just belly fat?  This concept has completely intrigued me as this has always been my area of frustration.

derma e Exfoliating Mask Review and Giveaway

        Because I am generally so low maintenance when it comes to makeup, I have been fortunate to avoid a lot of acne on my face growing up.  I only really have just begun to notice some issues with it since having the boys and my change in hormones throughout the pregnancies.  I recently had the wonderful opportunity to work with the company derma e® which I felt helped a great deal making my skin look and feel a billion times better!

Innovia Automatic Paper Towel Dispenser Review and Giveaway

        Now you all are aware of my obsession with having the coolest and most up to date cooking gadgets gadgets.  I just love to cook (and obviously eat a lot too)!  I have also combined together this love and my obsession with being as green as possible to help teach my children different values and skills for the future.  I think it is important to make learning as easy as possible.

        So I've already told you all that I don't consider myself a girlie girl but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy having the awesome tools that you would find say at a salon!  I actually don't travel to the salon often because of the costs involved and I usually cut and dye my own hair as well as everyone in my family.  But when I do venture to one I am always gawking and drooling over the awesome gadgets they have to make their days run a little more smoothly and organized.
