Lunchables Lunch Note Promise and Party!

Come out and party with us and help support a great cause!

I think it is so important to let your kids know that you love them and are thinking about them every chance you get. Leaving little note in my sons lunchbox has been something that I have been doing since he started school 3 years ago. He loves the surprise and showing them to all of his friends. That makes me feel great to because I know he isn’t embarrassed by mom yet!

If you haven’t heard about the Oscar Mayer Lunch Note Promise campaign then allow me to fill you in! Lunchables is asking that parents do just a very simple task…promise to give a lunch note to your kids. It can be about anything that you wish! Some words of encouragement fr the big game coming up? Wishing them well on a test? How about just a simple, “I love you!”. Lunchables even has some pre-made fancy designs that you can print and use. Just click on the set you want, download the PDF to your PC,  print the set, cut out the individual notes and the rest is only limited to your imagination! Drop it in your child’s lunchbox and your done!

What could make this campaign even more special? For every parent who makes the lunch note promise, the Lunchables team will donate a meal to a child and their family in need through Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief charity, which serves an estimated nine million children annually. The goal is to turn up to 100,000 promises from moms like you into up to 100,000 meals from Lunchables Lunch Combination’s for kids in need.  Are you ready to promise to join the campaign to give children what they need – a little encouragement? Lunchables has received over 47,000 promised to date and YOU can help them reach their goal of 100,000!

Making your promise takes less than 30 seconds. Simply visit LunchNotePromise.com, enter your state, email address and click PROMISE NOW! That’s it! While your there, check out the splash that Lunchables is making with their NEW Lunchables! There are 6 different varieties including A Turkey sandwich made from 100% turkey breast, spring water, apple sauce, and bread made with whole grain. Lunchables just got even better! Throw in the Lunch Note Promise and you’ve got something you can really feel good about.

As if helping out Feeding America wasn’t motivation enough to take the promise, you can also win some great prizes for joining us! This Thursday, Lunchables will be giving away some FANTASTIC PRIZES!

When you hear Little Debbie, your stomach should be super Happy! I was not a big fan of all of the flavors of their new Muffin line but at least one person in the house liked something! They have Double Chocolate, Orange Cranberry, Lemon, Chocolate Chip and Blueberry and Banana Nut Muffins

Enjoy a taste of summer in every moist bite of our Lemon Muffins. They’re just the right size for anytime snacking. Each carton contains six individually wrapped muffins.  Available only from June through August.

Each deliciously moist Blueberry Muffin is baked with wild blueberries, and they’re just the right size for anyone in the family. Each carton contains six individually wrapped muffins.

Baked with creamy milk chocolate chips, our Double Chocolate Muffins are moist, delicious and the perfect size for snacking anytime. Each carton contains six individually wrapped muffins. Available only from April through June.

Our bakery-style Chocolate Chip Muffins are made with semi-sweet chocolate chips. They’re just the right size to enjoy  either at home or when you’re on the go. Each carton contains six individually wrapped muffins.

The pickiest person in my home and the best taste tester would be my 2 year old son, Spencer.  He just had to try one so I gave him a Blueberry  and here is what he thought about it.

Review: Take a Tote Reuseable Shopping Bags

Everyone knows that I am a complete reusable bag junkie so I am excited to introduce to you Take a Tote bags by Yvonne Totes! I got a chance to try the beautiful tote located to the left recently. I have been using it for about a few months now, several times a week and it is holding up fantastically! It is created to be very durable. I can’t tell you how many of those “reusable” bags that I have gone through from Kroger. At $.99 a pop I would much rather buy a durable bag for a bit more that is going to last!

Discover a wonderful selection of fashionable products. Yvonne Totes features quality, useful items for everyone to last for years to come at a price that is affordable. Yvonne Totes is a Mother-Daughter business based out of Auburndale Wisconsin offering more than 20 years of industrial sewing experience. Yvonne Totes bring quality products at competitive prices.

They great thing about this site is that they offer WAY more than just tote bags! They also offer Pouches, Travel Pillows, and Athletic Bags which are all American-made products by Yvonne Totes. They strive to improve their products with durable material and manufacture environmentally safe items.

You can see an entire list of products by clicking any of the categories below!

I also received a cute little pouch. I have been using this for my coupons actually! I know what your thinking, no way all of my coupons fit in there! Well you right. When I pull my coupons and make my order, I clip them together and tuck them in this with my list. I stick in in the front on my bin and off to the store I go. It is much nicer than an envelope!

** FREE SHIPPING ON ALL PRODUCTS!! **

Review: Uppercase Living Removable Wall Art

We moved into our house just months ago and it is pretty, shall we say, BLAND? A friend introduced me to the uppercase living company and I was HOOKED! Let me be real clear on this, I was in no way compensated to review this product but I was so in love with it that I wanted to share. I was able to buy my sayings during a buy one, get one half price sale in April. My ‘consultant’ told me there may be a sale in June. The new catalog comes out in July.

But in any case? Why am I so nutso over this stuff? It is so EASY, and not really all that expensive to do. The two sayings which I had custom made in the photo below came to roughly $80. That included Karen (consultant) installing them.

Basically, these are vinyl stickers that you can get made to say practically anything and in many colors, fonts so on. When on the wall they look exactly like they were stenciled. Karen shared a story of a women buying the saying “Yes, you are the fairest of them all…” for her sister who was recovering from breast cancer. She put it on the mirror in her room.

Here you can see Karen finishing up the “Please silence your cell phones..” (which is a family joke)

I got this one free when I spent over a certain amount (don’t remember is it was $50 or more???). Didn’t really think I would use it but I found a really cute spot under my bronze stars.

You can make your own personalized sayings or choose from thousands of pre-designed ones. You can only buy uppercase living through a consultant. I think it may be best to find someone close to you to consult with so they can see the area and help you through the initial buy. If you are in Denver area, I really recommend Karen.

Review: Progresso Soup Taste Challenge

I am a big Chicken Noodle lover BUT I do not like vegetables. Go figure. I normally eat Campbell’s Condensed because they lack just that! I recently tried Progresso an I was able to get down the carrots. They were soft and flavorful. Not mushy and tasteless like other soups I have tried. I still could not bring myself to eat the celery. One thing at a time I suppose. If you love Chicken noodle soup and have not Tried Progresso yet, give it a try. If you would like a printable to save some money on your purchase, please leave your email address and I will send them to you. (I can’t post them because I have to send them to you via email through General Mills) then come back and tell me what you thought!

America Has Spoken: People prefer the taste of Progresso®
National taste test confirms consumers prefer Progresso Traditional Chicken Noodle
over Select Harvest Chicken with Egg Noodles

Progresso unveiled on Oct. 20, 2008, the results of a national blind taste test that shows 7 of 10 people with a preference chose the great taste of Progresso’s Traditional Chicken Noodle over Campbell’s Select Harvest Chicken with Egg Noodles.

Campbell’s recent advertising campaign touts the ‘real taste’ of Select Harvest Chicken Noodles and compares the soup with Progresso, says the marketing manager for Progresso. This taste test proves there is no comparison: The majority of consumers prefer the taste of Progresso Traditional Chicken Noodle over Select Harvest Chicken with Egg Noodles. No amount of advertising can change that, adds the marketing manager.

Progresso is encouraging consumers to choose for themselves at the Progresso Taste Challenge Web site, www.ProgressoTasteChallenge.com, where visitors can download up to $3.00 in coupons. The site also provides a money-back guarantee to anyone who is not fully satisfied with the taste of Progresso soup.

Consumers have a choice when it comes to soup, and we want people to make their own decision about which soup tastes best, says the Progresso marketing manager. If you taste our soup, we guarantee you’ll love it — or we’ll send your money back. We’re confident that consumers will continue to choose Progresso.

National taste test confirms consumers prefer Progresso Traditional Chicken Noodle over Select Harvest Chicken with Egg Noodles.
