Scentsy Buddy Review and Giveaway with Sandra

Sandra Foy, a Consultant with Scentsy, sent me Ribbert, the frog Scentsy Buddy.

My first thought when I pulled him out of his custom box, which is more like a pet condo with windows and doors, was how the pictures I have seen of these in the catalogs and online just don’t give these guys enough credit! From the pictures I saw, I imagined him to be thin and kind of lanky, when in fact he is quite the stout little guy, and way softer than I expected. Scentsy describes the buddy’s are perfect for your child or the child with in yourself! These little guys have a nifty zipper pouch  in their back to stuff with a scent pack. While I can not vouch on how long they will last since I did not have one, many people I have spoke with say they can last up to 5 months, just depends.

 Now isn't this nifty, look how simple it would be to switch the scent! I LOVE this feature

I will say this buddy is so soft and cuddly, it is the perfect amount of fluff and softness, fills the body just right. The zipper pouch seems like a great idea for little one’s who take their stuffed animals everywhere seeing as how they will keep them from being less stinky. Not to mention that you can just wash the buddy and change the scent whenever! One of my friends daughters has one and says they hold up perfect in the washing machine and the scent makes it perfect for their rooms when they become “curious” of the cords on the warmers. I was told the buddy can fill the room with the scent inside it.
These little buddy’s come in 10 different animals, one being for the winter and one being a charity item benefiting the Ronald McDonald House. They have over 30 scents to stuff them with from a calming lavender to a bright and fun fruity scent. They range in price from $25 to $30 depending on which buddy you get.

What else does Scentsy offer? Everything from hand sanatizer and car items to elegant warmers and over 80 scents to pick from in wax! Is it worth the money? Yes, I think the buddy is worth the money. My puppy loved it, she kept it in her crate and laid on it at night as well as had a fight or two with her cousin over it. I am sure it will hold up to a child if it can handle my puppy and her cousin.

Would you like to win a Scentsy Buddy of your own?

This deal is NATION WIDE, oh did I mention if you are new you get $5 for signing up, meaning you can get $75 worth of gift cards for $20?  Go NOW!

Coles surgery was today and let me just say I was a mess during my final. It was so stressful knowing he was getting operated on an hour away from me and I had no control over him, not to mention that I wont get to seem him till tomorrow.  The good news is, he is doing okay, lots of pain and has to stay over night since they cant get it under control. I just cant wait to go home tomorrow after my last final and give him a hug and kiss and see how he is doing.

Finals week are coming to an end as is my first semester in Stillwater. I can not wait till it is over and I can just spend time with cole and help him. Now I have one more final and I am done for 3 weeks! That means I have 3 weeks to cook cole things he finds on pinterest! I know what the first thing is going to be and he will love it! Oh and let me just say I made a few cookies yesterday for my girls christmas and test night and oh sooo yummy! So I will post the recipes later so everyone can try them if they want.

Also, remember we have 2 giveaways closing this week as well as a new giveaway up. I will also be putting up another giveaway this weekend or early next week, depends on if I start work this week or not. Hope all of you are having a great week!

Pampered Chef with Stephanie Review and Giveaway

Pampered Chef is another direct sales company. Almost all the reviews we have done up till now are direct sales, meaning that they individuals run their own business as a direct seller. Their product line features high quality kitchen tools, gadgets, cookbooks and food items with over 300! Pampered Chef continues to offer expert cooking tips and simple recipes to guide both consultants and their customers to enjoy cooking and “develop their God-given talents and skills” which is a part of their company mission!

Stephanie was nice enough to send us the NEW Chocolate Peppermint Sauce! This sauce comes in a jar that is just shy or 9 ounces for $10.  They recommend using the sauce on

ice cream, cheesecake, cakes, brownies or pies. They even have some recipes that the company has come up with on how you can use the sauce in tons of different ways, they even say to try it as fondue! Cole and I decided to try it as an ice cream sauce and let me say it was delish! It was the perfect amount of mint to the chocolate, while the sauce got a little thinner then I like for ice cream, I prefer a more fudge like consistency. They say you can serve room temp or warm, so we tried both, warm is the way to go. Makes the mint not as powerful and when it hits the ice cream it gets thicker like a fudge. I am thinking after finals week, I might swirl it in to a brownie batter or make a frosting with it for some cupcakes. 

This was my first time to try any food product from pampered chef and let me just tell you, it has made me want to try some other items they offer. Not to mention trying some of the neat kitchen gadgets they have. Like the microwave chip maker, for $26 you get a set of 2 trays that will save you tons of money while making healthy snacks at home for your family. So who is ready to win some Pampered Chef?

Here Comes Santa Claus

     I'm sure everyone has a Santa story. Mine began when I was a little girl. My parents took me to see Santa at Metro Center Mall in Jackson, MS. One look at the jolly man dressed in red and I took off running in the opposite direction. All I remember is 2 college-aged blondes dressed as elves running after me. Fast forward 26 years later and my children feel the same way I did when I was 4.

     With hopes that my son would be different, I took him to see Santa for the first time in 2008. He took one look at him and screamed. Needless to say, the photographer wouldn't take the picture. I was relentless so we returned back to the mall in 2009. This time, he still screamed as I held him but I told that woman to take the picture or else. My husband says that I look like a Stepford Wife in the picture-all happy while my son, Christian, is in complete terror. I learned my lesson back in '09 and decided to forego 2010 for him, that is. Last year, was our daughter's first Christmas so we took her. Since she was just 4 months old, Santa had no effect on her whatsoever. Whew! I was glad, finally a tear-free Santa photo.

     Fast forward to 2011....my son is now almost 5 and my daughter is well over a year. I had talked my son into standing by Santa while my daughter, Presley, sat in his lap. I thought that surely she'd take a picture with the jolly man in red since her brother and her have 2 totally different personalities. He's the shy one and she is the life of the party. Apparently, I thought wrong. Apparently, my fear of Santa as a child passed through my genes to my children. Even with my husband present, Christian was not going to get near the man. When I introduced Presley to him, she slapped him. Did I mention she's a feisty life of the party? Because I had the "we're going to take this durn picture mentality," we all got in the picture. My husband and I were not dressed for the picture but we took it anyways. Presley kept giving Santa the "don't mess with me" eye and Christian couldn't get away from him fast enough. We made it through the picture with just 2 out of the 4 of us smiling-my husband and me.

     Oh well, at least, the elves didn't have to chase anyone down the mall. I even decided to use this memorable photo as our Christmas card. Though no one can truly treasure this card unless they know the entire story from start to finish. Tell them for me, please. I'll be trying to keep my daughter from beating up Santa. Merry Christmas!

Black Friday Shopping and a new Recipe

Okay, so yes I will admit, I am a crazy black friday shopper. I go every year except for last year since I had knee surgery 2 days prior to it. Let me just say that by far this was my best year yet! I spent under $175 and got a retail value of product of over $450! Heres what I got:
24 Movies (i used coupons on some of them)
3 xbox 360 games
1 xbox wireless controller
1 waffle maker
1 mini chopper
2 liters of shampoo and conditioner 

Cole, his first time ever did great! He spent $260 for about $570ish wroth of product and got the following
xbox 360 with kinect (for me, YAY)
6 or 7 movies (not sure)
1 PS3 game
$50 gift card
6 qt crockpot (for his mommy)
2 bottles of water (should have packed my own, would have saved more $$)

My mom via my sister and I got an awesome one cup coffee maker for about $88ish after tax, but she gets 5% off her bill, PLUS she got a $30 Target gift card, making the coffee maker about $54ish after all savings accounted for!

I feel like I am missing something from his list but not sure. He admits he hates this with a passion but that he got all that stuff for what he would have paid for just my xbox so he is happy. But he is undecided on going next year. Me on the other hand..Im ready to go now!! I LOVE IT!! Not to mention that I got a couple rebates for movies to turn in as well as a couple coupons that I used.

Now after i rested and took a nap and while Cole was at work, I went to CVS and Walgreens to get their great deals! It was a good week for both, I spend $30 and walked away with over $65 in bucks to use later, as well as over $130 in product! I LOVE my coupons and I love Black Friday! I dont know what I would do with out it. Now if only I could get Cole this excited. But we have made progress!

The other day, Cole's mom had him order the stuff he wanted for christmas online. So my little savvy shopper went through ebates, making sure he would get cash back, then he found a coupon, that as he puts it gave me shorts for FREE, plus free shipping! So he will now be getting a new hoodie, shorts and a few bucks back thanks to me! Not sure if he will admit it or not, but it is soo awesome! He has even started getting more into groupons and that type of thing and restaurant.com stuff. I am sooo happy he finally sees how much this can pay off if he sticks with it! Now to get him to do it on a bigger scale..he lives in the basement and theres so much room for a stockpile..now to convince him!

Okay so I promised a recipe and so now I shall spill! Being the holidays and that Eggnog is everywhere I have decided to share with you my favorite breakfast/brunch and Christmas morning meal!

Eggnog Puff Pancake

this is not your normal pancake, its thick like french toast, but has no bread.

6 eggs, beat till frothy
1 1/3 c eggnog
1 c flour
1/3 c butter flavored crisco
1 t nutmeg
toasted almond slivers

Heat over to 425, place the crisco in a 13x9 GLASS pan. Make sure it is HOT HOT, it has to be hot to make the pancake puff.
Forth the eggs, add the egg now, mix on low, add flour and nutmeg, mix on medium till incorporated.
Pull the crisco out of the oven and immediately add the batter
Put back in the oven for 15-20 mins, till puffed and golden brown.
DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN WHILE IT IS COOKING! DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!

you can make this batter ahead of time, just remix it before you put it in the pan. DO NOT USE BUTTER!

Let me know what you eat on Christmas and if its tradition to do something, I would love to know!!

Hope everyone has a great week. I know I will,  it is BEDLAM and as much as i dislike the classless, tacky and down right rude and uncalled for ou guest. I will remain LOYAL and TRUE to the OSU way and be welcomeing and kind to all of them. Now if yu dont believe me in how they treat us, go look at the tweets Brandon Weeden gets, or the disrespectful and rude comments made when we lost after loosing 2 of our coaches in a plane crash. There are somethings in my life that I would never change even if I had the chance and one of the is being a Cowboy! Nothing is better then being here in a community where no matter what the outcome is, we still LOVE our team, we still WEAR ORANGE and we stand proud and strong next to anyone, not to mention we ALWAYS remember those we lost and that is why I am a  LOYAL AND TRUE OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY FAN, I WILL ALWAYS PROUDLY WEAR MY ORANGE AND BLACK AND REMEMBER EVERY PERSON WHO HAD AN IMPACT ON THIS CAMPUS! GO POKES!!!

Tupperware with Sandra Foy

Okay, so unlike the rest of America, I some how have never used Tupperware all 22 years of my life. I am not sure how it happened, but let me just say, THANK YOU to Sandra! She is an AMAZING sponsor of ours and has sent me an amazing product to try. I used the product this past week in my prep for Thanksgiving, so now on with the review!

For this review Sandra sent me the Tupperware Quick Chef Food Chopper and Processor. Let me just say that this is a pretty neat little item and I love it! I will say that I did learn a few lessons after starting to use it that made it even easier and better. The Quick Chef makes chopping easy, while saving money and providing a quick upper body work out! With just a few quick turns vegetables are chopped and mixes of almost any kind are mixed! A single turn of the handle rotates blade or paddle whisk four times, saving time and effort. The staggered 3 stainless steel blades effortlessly chop fruits and vegetables and even nuts. The paddle whisk quickly whipped up my eggs for morning breakfast. The top I will say could be better, The handle is not attached, which is great for storage, but it comes off it you have a bit to much in the chopper, something I learned! The non-skid base was genius, it prevents sliding, which comes in handy when you are chopping away!

My Quick Chef came with the 3 staggered stainless steal blades, the whipping attachment, a funnel, with measurements, for easy adding of liquids and a top so that you can store directly in the bowl once you are done mixing! Let me say after washing those blades, WATCH OUT, man our they sharp, I think they are shopper then the ones on my electric one that I just bought! Most of the items fit inside the bowl for storage, making it easier to store and harder to loose parts.

I chose to make my cranberry orange relish in my Quick Chef this year. I should have known that just like my blender, I needed to do this in batches. But I didnt do that, so I learned the hard way, got an AMAZING work out till i realized that I needed to break it in to batches. Once I broke them in to batches, it was so EASY! The blades turned with ease, the funnel was great to add the wine in with out a mess. I LOVE THIS CHOPPER!

Here is my relish half way though the process! And now, here it is Finished!

Now here's my recipe in case one of you would like to try it!
12oz FRESH Cranberries
1 Medium orange with the peel on and cut in to chuncks
Pecans or Walnuts to taste, a few handfuls is what I do
2-3oz dry white wine
Cinnamon to taste
Sugar to taste

Chop till all small and chunky, chill for about 8 hours then eat! Great with turkey, by its self or on cream cheese and crackers!

Okay, now who wants to win some Tupperware?

3W Supplements Review!

This review was not written or preformed by myself. I do not live with horses in my studio, but my grandfather and his wife have a farm with their own horses, a donkey and some borders. Here is the review written by them! Let me just say, while I was down there the horses seemed to LOVE the EquiDisk. So now on with the review!


"We run a small, but charming boarding facility in Argyle, TX. Thanks to 3W Supplements-Cathy M Williamson an EquiPride Dealer, we received the EquiDisk to see what our most critical consumers (the horses) would think about this new product. Since we have several paddocks that separate the girls and boys, I gave one EquiDisk to each for trial. Immediately the boys showed much interest, but ultimately every horse that had access to the EquiDisk enjoyed the healthy ingredients on a daily basis. The great thing about the EquiDisk is that it has multiple uses. Not only does it serve as a great supplement, but it also is a great distraction for boredom.  My oldest horse, Stef, visits the Equidisk regularly first thing every morning before breakfast. She makes the EquiDisk a part of her daily routine and she would know what is good for her because she is 29 years old! I'm happy with the product because it lasts longer that a salt lick, but also provides other important minerals that are necessary in the horses daily diet. Great product!"

Do you own a horse? Do you want to order some for your own horse? Well here is the info to try this amazing product!

Laineys Pawtique & Bakery Review and Giveaway

We all know how much doggies and kitties LOVE their treats. We can also know how expensive they are and how bad they can truthfully be for a pup when you really look at them. I have started looking in to treats that are made with all natural ingredients and love for my pups, which lead me to Laineys Pawtique & Bakery. A Chicago favorite stop for pups and kitties alike, with some soon to be puppy treat trucks, Laineys Pawtique & Bakery is sure to keep your pups happy. This review was done by Bella, the pug, and Peaches, the papillon. Let me say, these treats came wrapped soooo cute!

These are the Tail Wags For a Cure Line

The pups got to try both Halloween and Tail Wags For a Cure lines of treats. Let me say, these treats smelled good enough to eat! So much so, that Mr. Alaska and my sister decided to try the treats themselves. The treats are made from all natural and home grown fruits and veggies in their garden! Much like all the other companies we got samples from this month, Laineys Pawtique & Bakery bakes with love for the pets and donates to animal causes, which is a big part of what helps me start to love a company. 

All of the treats we got were decorated for each reason they were made. They were some of the cutest treats I have ever seen, and the pups too! They loved these, they werent their normal run of the mill treats from the petstore, but they were amazing! The pups ate them up so fast, as well as Mr. Alaska and Dani.

 

Laineys Pawtique & Bakery has great prices and Holiday gift ideas! Their treats start at about a quarter a treat plus shipping, that is  great price for homemade, all natural treats! Think of who you want to buy for this Holiday season, then go check out Laineys Pawtique & Bakery!

Haute Dog Review and Giveaway

Let me just start off by saying I am sooo sorry to the lovely folks at Haute Dog. We got so swamped between school, surgery and personal problems that we have fallen behind in our reviews and giveaways. We will be posting 3 between now and tomorrow to catch up, so this is SUPER giveaway week! Who is ready to win?

This review was a little hard to take pictures for. Since I bathe my dog alone, or when I do have help it still takes 2 people to not have a soaking puppy run through the house. Let me just say, the package that we got from Haute Dog was sooo high end and beautiful! They sent us the Like A Rose Revitalizing Bath Gelee, let me say, it has the perfect amount of rose in it. The rose isnt all you get, it is a refreshing light scent, perfect for bath time!
Peaches is a difficult pup to wash, she loves to not get washed, she always tries to run away. And Kitty, well he loves to cry and act like the worst thing ever to happen to him. So, washing them weekly is a task, but let me say this scent has lasted on Peaches for over a week now, she didn't smell as bad after we went out in the ran as she normally would. Kitty, well he made a mess in the garage and his amazing scent lasted about a week, which is great for that guy!

Peaches says I smell amazing now, thanks to Haute Dog! I love the Bath Gelee, it was so rich and made my fur softer then ever. My mom said she even thinks it calmed my skin like I need since I like to scratch. The AMAZING 2 PAWS up Bath Gelee goes for $19 at Haute Dog, and let me tell you, it is well worth it! It doesnt take nearly as much as the cheaper brands to get a great lather and the scent last much longer.

Other great products from Haute Dog. Well they offer everything from sprays to aromatherpy tonics. They have it all! Made in the USA by someone who cares about my pup as much as I do.

I have started writting the reviews and giveaway info for Haute Dog, Laineys Pawtique and 3M Supplements. All reviews should be up by next Tuesday, I am soooo sorry to all of our Sponsors and will be doing a special thank you to you all! With out you guys, we would not be such an awesome blog! Thank you to every one for understanding. I now must go finish some work on both of my group projects.

Have a great week!

Bow Bows 2 Go Go Fur Babies Line Review and Giveaway

Bow Bows 2 Go Go Fur Babies Line

Peaches wearing her Fur Baby Bow

When I started this month's giveaways, I was trying to think of ways to help bring awareness to stray pets and pet cancer. While I bought Peaches (I know, bad me) I bought her in honor of my childhood dog, Timber. A dog my parents adopted when I was about 5, they got him from an amazing rescue here in Oklahoma City, Free To Live. www.freetolive.org is an amazing group that I personally love! They have given us many pets that needed a good home and yes I did search shelters for a small dog before i found Peach and fell in love. I would like to announce that Bow Bows 2 Go Go gives 5% of all Fur Baby line bows to local animal shelters. So with that in mind, what Fur Baby do you want to put a bow on?

So with that said, on with the review! Peach and I understand not everyone dresses their dog like I do. While she loves her hoodies, jackets and of course her super cute dresses, she knows some of her furry friends dont. But she wants to let everyone know why she LOVES Fur Baby bows! Peach was sent a mini Fur Baby Bow to try out, it was orange and pink and PERFECT for her gameday hair do's. The bows over at Fur Baby's are a great deal! They are handmade with love for each pup and are better quality then those you could buy at the store. With a price tag of $2.50 per bow or $4 for a set, why wouldn't you give them a try.  Now it is time for Peach to tell you her view.

Well, I'm Peaches, I am almost 3 years old and I am a lovable Papillon. My mom found me 2 1/2 years ago at a local pet shop and said I was perfect for Timber, now this Timber guy, my uncle looked just like me except he was HUGE, so I always figured I was going to grow, well surprise to me, I stopped at 6 pounds. I am a tiny petite little pup, who loves to dress up. So now on to why I got this bow! I got the bow because I have long pretty hair, while I am not 100% on if I love bows on my head, I still think they are super cute. This one really was, so small and perfectly sized for my tiny head, and I loved the colors. Here is the bow I got!

My bow is so nice, the colors match perfectly and they even covered the clip, not something any of those big chains do. The people over at Bow Bows 2 Go Go were so nice to send me this bow to make sure that it is pup worthy and I say yes! Not only did I wear my bow, but I even played with it once I managed to shake it off my head. My mom says this bow is great, it didnt break when I got it off like the last one and it matches my jersey for the games. My cousin Bella was sad that she didn't get to be part of the review, but she has no hair..she is a pug so she cant help. But she did say it was pretty and that she wished she could have one. So now on to who wants to win a cute set of bows? Some lucky winner will win this set of bows. 

These are super cute and perfect for someone like me with long pretty hair.
