Gourmet Gift Baskets Review and Giveaway

CLOSED

Mother's Day is right around the corner. As a mother myself I know this is a very special and exciting day. I have been asked several times by my husband what it is that I want to celebrate Mother's Day.
I had to say a gift basket. I think they are the perfect gift for any Mother. Who wouldn't want a gift basket. You get a bunch of neat things all in one basket. I think they are great.


Gourmet Gift Baskets is a website that carries a huge variety of Gift Baskets. They carry gift baskets for Mothers Day,Birthdays,Baby,Corporate and even Just Because baskets to name a few.


Gourmet Gift Baskets sent me the Mothers Day Classic Gardening Gift Basket. It's even more impressive in person. It comes with " a high quality garden tote complete with a full-size pair of shears, a weeder, a cultivator, a fork, a pair of gardening gloves and two types of shovels. She'll also love the delectable gourmet snacks like our signature Mixed Dried Fruit, Raspberry Honey Mustard Pretzel Dip, Dipping Pretzels, and Peanuts. This incredibly popular mothers day basket also includes includes a tube of super-duty "Gardener's Hand Cream" to soothe her hands after a long day in the garden."



I am so excited to use the gardening tools when we move. They are really high quality and will come in handy for planting and cutting down lemons and limes. The snacks were also very good. I loved the dried Fruit and the Raspberry Honey Mustard Pretzel Dip was soooo good.



Want to buy one for the special Mother, Mother in law or Grandmother in your life.

Vat19 skyball Review and Giveaway

The other day I found this really cool site called Vat19. They sell the most unique products. Looking through all of their items I noticed the Skyball hypercharged bouncy ball. This ball so cool it bounces up to 75 feet in the air because it's filled with a combination of compressed air and helium.




Watch the short video on it here. HERE

I was sent a yellow one to review and it bounces higher than any other bouncy ball I have ever seen. The skyball is really cool. I know Shane is going to have so much fun with it this summer. The skyball comes in blue, magenta, green, purple and yellow.

TheUpperRoom Camera Strap Review and Giveaway

CLOSED

Wearing a camera on your neck all the time can hurt. Canon's straps are nice but lack padding. BRYN has a solution. She makes beautiful SLR camera strap covers in her etsy store TheUpperRoom that have a layer of padding. Her covers can be made in a single fabric, or in two fabrics for a reversible cover. She has many fabric choices.

I love my new camera strap cover. I can't believe I went this long without one. Bryn did a fantastic job. It fits great and my neck is no longer hurting after my shoots. Plus it is super stylish. I have had many complements on it already.



Bryn is giving one of my readers a camera strap cover with their choice of fabric.

WIN IT

Thursday

Today has been beautiful. The weather is amazing. I just got back in from taking Shane outside to play in his water table and coupe car. Watching him outside in such great weather confirms how excited I am to move.




We have a showing on the house tonight, tomorrow morning and evening. Our agent is really great. We hope to see an offer soon.

I hope all of you are enjoying your Thursday.





Lunch Punch review and GIVEAWAY

CLOSED


Shane is not fond of crust on his sandwiches. He eats everything and leaves the crust or I have to cut the crust off. I have always wanted a better and more enticing way to serve sandwiches to Shane.

Recently I found Lunch Punch. The Lunch Punch is a food cutter specifically designed to capture the most amount of bread when it cuts the crust off your sandwich. A fun lunch with minimum waste. The Lunch Punch is kid friendly and dishwasher safe. The Lunch Punch is BPA free
Phthalate free and lead free.

Lunch Punch are sandwich cutters that cut your boring average sandwiches into cool shapes. There are currently 2 sets available. Match and munch which are puzzle shapes and critter cutters which have animal shapes.




Lunch punch has offered one of my lucky readers a chance to win 1 of each of the 2 sets available.
