Pillsbury Artisan Crust with Whole Grain #Giveaway #MyBlogSpark (US Ends 6/1)

May 13, 2013 by Karen | 2 Comments | Filed in Giveaway

My boys love pizza. LOVE. PIZZA. So, you can imagine how excited they were when I opened the box MyBlogSpark sent me, containing the items above. We had a blast making our own pizzas using the Pillsbury Artisan Crust Pizza. I love the fact that it’s made from Whole Grain (16 grams per serving) and we were able to use mostly fresh, local ingredients from the farmers market! I did make my own sauce, similar to what I use in spaghetti, and some of those ingredients were from the supermarket. I cut the dough into individual sizes, so each person could create their own pizza, with the toppings of their choice. You can get an online coupon for $1.50 off one package of Pillsbury Artisan Pizza Crust by clicking that link. Read the rest of this entry »

AvoDerm Natural Premium Pet Food Challenge #ad

May 10, 2013 by Karen | No Comments | Filed in Information

This is our dog, Cuddles. If you follow me on Instagram, you probably see me post pictures of her from time to time. She is just about a year old, we adopted her from a rescue society, and they think she is part Maltese, part Poodle. She has a thick, soft coat, but if often looks dull. We do take her to the groomer about once a month for a natural shampoo and trim, and we feed her a quality premium food to keep her healthy and treat a condition she has.

I spoke with the vet today, and let her know about the AvoDerm Challenge, so she can share with other families. If you click that link, it will take you to their site where you can also sign up to participate , enter the sweepstakes to win a year’s supply of AvoDerm, and get a $5 off coupon.

We did a ton of research on various foods before we adopted Cuddles, speaking to veterinarians and other experts. They advised us on what to look for when we read the ingredient list on the pet foods available in various stores. Initially we found a food for Cuddles at a chain pet food store, but when she developed a condition, we needed to look for a food that included specific nutrients to help her naturally, in addition to some prescription chewables. We shop at a local store here in our town that sells AvoDerm, and the salespeople are incredibly knowledgeable. Although there is a national chain in my area that sells AvoDerm too, I prefer to shop at this smaller locally owned store that only sells foods that they too have researched and feel like meets their stringent requirements. For example, when we first moved here last year, I stopped in to see if they sold our previous food so I didn’t have to drive 30 minutes to the large chain store to get it. They did not, and they gave me a 30 minute lecture on why I shouldn’t use it, and sent me home with a sack full of samples of better quality foods to try.

What makes this food so great? Well, it has quality ingredients, meaning lots of premium proteins, no corn, no wheat. Antioxident Nutrients to help support a healthy immune system, and it includes avocado to help promote healthy skin & coat.

I challenge you to go look at the ingredient list on the dog food you use, and to ask your vet about it the next time you are in for a visit, to see if it’s the best choice for your pet. If you take the challenge, they GUARANTEE that in just 6 weeks, you’ll see a softer, shinier coat.

“AvoDerm® Adult Chicken Meal & Brown Rice dog food provides healthy balanced nutrition for your adult dog. High quality ingredients ensure that you are providing the optimal nutrition your pet needs.

No Corn. No Wheat. No Artificial Colors.

AvoDerm® has vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant nutrients to help protect your dog’s immune function.

AvoDerm® is formulated to be rich in high quality fats and oils with a balanced Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acid ratio. The right nutrients in the right proportions are indispensable to keeping your dog’s skin healthy. Sometimes shortages or excesses of specific nutrients can lead to thin, rough coats. Avocado and avocado oil can help support the skin and coat from the inside out for the protection your pet needs.

Feed AvoDerm® regularly to sustain the highest level of nutrition for your dog from the inside out. AvoDerm® Adult Chicken & Rice Canned Formula is also available.

Available in 4.4, 15 and 30 lb. bags.”

Amazing Kickstarter Project: Sockskies

May 9, 2013 by Karen | No Comments | Filed in Information

Amazing Kickstarter Project: Sockskies

At my house, we have a SERIOUS sock problem. Each of my boys is in a different size sock, so combined, we have five different sizes of socks that must be laundered. Inevitably, one will get lost somewhere in the process. Almost two years ago, we had a problem with my washing machine, when it wouldn’t drain. We’d noticed an odor – it’s a top loading HE machine, and I had been leaving the top open between loads, and even used washing machine cleaner, all to no avail. Fortunately, it was under warranty, so the repair guy came out to look at it. After taking it apart, he found about 8 socks that had somehow made it between the drum and the sides of the machine, and had gotten stuck in the bottom, soaking wet, eventually plugging the drain. Since that time, I have used zipper bags to keep them all contained, but somehow, we are still losing socks!

I am very interested in trying out Sockskies, I really think they could help solve our problem:

OUTSIDE OF EACH SOCK:  One button is sewn in the middle upper part of each sock,  beautiful and symmetrical.

INSIDE OF EACH SOCK: One button hole is sewn on each inner part of the sock.

When you take the socks off each night, you simply button them together – so one of them doesn’t get lost! They can safely be laundered in the washer and dryer, and when they come out, they are already paired! I have to tell you, one person in this house, has some serious sock OCD issues, and prefers me to write on the toe of his socks when I first buy them, an L for the LEFT foot, and an R for the RIGHT foot. We saw this on a special on TV one day, and he thought it was brilliant, so the socks get worn evenly and a new sock doesn’t get matched with an older sock after being washed. The sockskies will be a perfect gift for him when they are available :)
If you have a moment, I’d encourage you to click the link to the Kickstarter page to take a more in depth look at this product and how they will work. Personally, I am a fan of the classic line for myself. Men’s sizes will fit sizes 8-12, Women’s 5-10, and Kids 1-5. The creator is seeking to raise $3,500 initially to meet the minimum order requirement from the manufacturer. Once she meets that goal, so will be rolling out additional specialized socks, and even a monthly subscription. I know a few teenage girls who would LOVE getting that type of gift each month! 
Disclosure: This is a sponsored post, on behalf of Sockskies, regardless, all thoughts and opinions expressed are solely my own, and it’s a product I truly can’t wait to try!

#ZzzQuilNight Challenge

May 9, 2013 by SocialSpark | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

This post brought to you by ZzzQuil. All opinions are 100% mine.

 photo ZzzQuilIZEAPostcardpdf-1_zps70314197.jpg

Many of you have noticed that I haven't posted many recipes here recently, and that's for a variety of reasons. Between the kids being on Spring Break, Vacation, car problems, and some medical issues that just leave me exhausted, I am behind. I DO have some great recipes (with pictures) saved to share again soon, and I was excited to sample a new (to me) product from Vicks NyQuil called ZzzQuil to help me get a good nights rest.

Sometimes, it seems like the more tired and exhausted I am, the harder it is for me to sleep. I am hesitant to use a prescription medication, because I don't want anything habit forming. I am allergic to certain herbs and such, so I am afraid to try any teas, or things along those lines. The Primary Care suggested Melatonin, but that didn't work for me. My sample of ZzzQuil arrived, and it was just a few days until I was ready to try it.

The active ingredient in ZzzQuil is diphenhydramine HCI, and it is available in Liquid or LuiquiCap forms. I tried the capsule. It is non-habit forming, safe and effective when used as instructed, and is intended for adults and children ages 12 and older. More information is available at www.zzzquil.com. I'd encourage you to also consider "Liking" them on Facebook, and Following on Twitter. If you've tried the product too, you can tweet them using hashtag #ZzzQuilNight.

I liked the packaging, it wasn't difficult to open, yet child safe. The pill was easy to swallow and didn't leave an aftertaste, in my opinion. I fell asleep very quickly, didn't even finish a single chapter of my book on my Kindle, and normally I read several before falling asleep. I woke up well rested, and thankfully, refreshed. 

ZzzQuil provided me with a complimentary sample of their product, inorder to participate in this challenge. All thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.
