Giveaway: Yoplait Smoothie Prize Pack

In what seems like a long time ago, I used to drink a smoothie for breakfast every morning. I found it was an easy way to get in extra fruits and protein. And it was quick, all the ingredients could be arranged the night before and I just had to blend and drink. I fell out of that habit when I began staying home with Charlotte, but really miss it. I was thinking about busting out my old Magic Bullet again and I was recently given a chance to try a new frozen product called Yoplait Smoothie. I used the coupon I received to buy the strawberry-banana flavor and it blended up super yummy! (They also sent me a free personal beverage blender, so goodbye Magic Bullet!)

According to MyBlogSpark (the giveaway sponsor), Yoplait Smoothies are " a healthy way to fit essential nutrients into your diet. The antioxidant-rich fruit in Yoplait smoothies can be a great way to help you get all the important vitamins and minerals your body needs."

They also told me that "seven out of 10 Americans do not consume the daily recommended amount of fruit. Every Yoplait Smoothie contains a full serving of fruit as well as real Yoplait yogurt pieces with live and active cultures. Yoplait Smoothies are a good source of calcium when prepared with milk according to directions, and an excellent source of antioxidant vitamin C."

All I had to do to make my smoothie was add it, plus some milk (skim for me please!), into the blender. It took me about two minutes to get the consistency I wanted. If you want to try it, here is a link to a $1.25 off  Yoilait Smoothie coupon that you should be able to print twice.

How to Enter: There are four ways to enter and you can do any of them you like, for up to four entries:

    I love Berry flavors, like Blueberry & Strawberry together! :) So, I'd imagine I would love the Triple Berry one they have!! Thanks soooo much for the chance to win. We sooo need a new blender and get rid of the cracked & scratched up one that we've had since the early 809's!! LOL

    Rasberries and bananas would be good, straberry/banana is my usual pick though.

    My favorite is their Triple Berry - we add a little milk and some bananas, and it's SO good! :)

Giveaway: Bake Me A Wish

Image
This giveaway is closed. When I came home from running errands recently, I saw a big box sitting on my doorstep. As I got closer, the anticipation built and then I realized it was a Vanilla Bean Cake from Bake Me A Wish! Woo hoo! This was a review I knew my husband would enjoy participating in. The Vanilla Bean cake from Bake Me a Wish! came packed in a cooler and ice pack because it is perishable. It took self control, but I put it in the fridge straight away and waited patiently for my husband to come home so we could celebrate life. When we finally got to sample the cake, I put some candles on it so Charlotte could practice blowing them out. We are slowly getting ready for the big day of her birthday party and have never put candles on a cake for her before. As I was enjoying my slice of the Vanilla Bean Cake, Bruce and I brainstormed when this type of cake service might be useful. And here is the list we came up with: When you want a gourmet cake, but don't have acces...

Win Free Cereal

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. I've definitely been on the giveaway wagon recently and am glad to be participating in the Fall Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. For this giveaway, I have FOUR (yes, you read that right - 4 winners!) full-price coupons for a new cereal from General Mills. Per their marketing, this cereal " combines great-tasting chocolatey puffs with vanilla puffs, a classic combination that kids love. Even better, Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D." I love cereal. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and as a snack in between all of those. I am particularly fond of Lucky Charms. The crunchy combined with the sweet marshmallows gets me every time. All you have to do to enter is tell me what your favorite cereal is and leave some way for me to contact you, either through a blog or e-mail. This giveaway is open to US residents only (because I don't think t...

Note to Self

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. Warning: Since I typically have a family-friendly blog, I want to let my readers know that this post is not safe for little eyes. Have you ever sat down with a new friend and found you stayed up way too late talking about every subject under the sun? Discussing religion, careers, and yes, even sex, even though you've only known each other for a very short period of time? That is what it was like for me to read Note to Self - On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits , by Samara O'Shea. Once I started it, I felt like Samara and I were just hanging out on my couch, sipping decaf lattes and having a conversation. (Okay, Samara might be sipping something harder, but I'm still nursing.) It was that easy to read. The basic premise of her newest book is teaching people how to write in a journal, by sharing her own journal entries. Personally, she wrote for therapy, sharing "A journal is an effecti...
