Step into Summer – Marshmallow Fun Company Executive Elite Blaster Review & Giveaway (CLOSED)

Blog· Giveaways· Review

Photobucket

Welcome to our Step into Summer event! Jennifer and I have some wonderful things lined up for you to help you get ready for summer. Make sure you visit Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom daily to see what she has in store for you too. Many days we will be reviewing and giving away the same item on both blogs – that is two chances for you to win!

Boys will be boys and for most of them that means playing with guns. Water guns, foam guns, cap guns, you name it! My boys are no exception to this. If all their guns were real, we’d be stocked!

Well now there’s a new line of toy guns on the market. These guns shoot marshmallows, how fun!

“This Elite Blaster comes in a professional-style carrying case, so whether it’s a prank at the office, or an attack in the backyard, you?ll be well-equipped. The pump-action Blaster fires large marshmallows (one at a time) approximately 30 feet at the target of choice.”

My boys had the chance to try out the Executive Elite Blaster and they’ve been having a blast with it all summer long! In fact, they have so much fun with it that they want to take it everywhere we go.

This gun is super easy to load and shoots marshmallows pretty far! We were shooting them off our front porch and launching them into the street! That’s right, I said “we”. Us moms have to have fun too!

If guns aren’t your thing, Marshmallow Fun Company offers bows and crossbows too! I know my boys would have a blast with these babies!

Buy It!

You can buy the Executive Elite Blaster for $49.95.

One lucky duck will win an Executive Elite Blaster in carry case!

Step into Summer – Wish-Bone Gift Bag Full of Salad Goodies Review & Giveaway {CLOSED}

Blog· Giveaways· Review

Photobucket

Welcome to our Step into Summer event! Jennifer and I have some wonderful things lined up for you to help you get ready for summer. Make sure you visit Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom daily to see what she has in store for you too. Many days we will be reviewing and giving away the same item on both blogs – that is two chances for you to win!

I have always liked salads. They’re good for you and a perfect snack for the summertime {or anytime for that matter}. Unfortunately for me {and my health} I probably don’t eat as much of it as I should. That’s all going to change though. I have made a pact with myself to eat better, to eat healthier. I will be doing away with all the things I used to eat and I will try my best to include a vegetable and salad with every meal.

Now some of you hear salad and you probably think boring old lettuce and dressing. Well, there are so many more ways to eat salad than you can probably imagine. Just the salad dressing varieties along are almost endless.

The Wish-Bone website offers a huge variety of different salad recipes for every taste bud out there. The Chopped Fiesta Garden Salad caught my eye and I’d love to share it with you. It looks delicious!

Chopped Fiesta Garden Salad

Makes: 5 (1-cup) servings
Preparation Time: 10 Minute(s)

Ingredients

7 cups torn romaine lettuce leaves
1 medium red or green bell pepper, chopped
1 can (15 oz.) whole kernel corn, drained
1 can (15.5 oz.) black beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 8 oz.)
2 green onions, thinly sliced
3/4 cup Wish-Bone? Ranch Dressing

  1. Combine all ingredients except Wish-Bone? Ranch Dressing in large serving bowl. Just before serving, drizzle with Dressing. Garnish, if desired, with tortilla chips.

Cost per recipe*: $9.00.

Cost per serving*: $1.80.

*Based on average retail prices at national supermarkets.

Nutrition Information per serving
Calories 420, Calories From Fat 230, Saturated Fat 10g, Trans Fat 0g, Total Fat 25g, Cholesterol 45mg, Sodium 1030mg, Total Carbohydrates 36g, Sugars 6g, Dietary Fiber 9g, Protein 20g

The wonderful people at Wish-Bone sent me a gift bag full of salad goodies including a Tyler Florence signed cookbook, salad tongs, a salad container, an apron and a couple bottles of Wish-Bone salad dressing. I have to say I truely adore my little kit, especially the salad tongs. Can you believe I have never owned a set? Crazy, right? The cookbook has some wonderful recipes in it too! I used the Wish-Bone Italian Dressing in my signature pasta salad and it turned out divine!

Here is an interesting fact: According to Wish-Bone, the oils like those in Wish-Bone salad dressings help your body better absorb vitamins A & E, versus a salad without dressing. Good to know!

The Giveaway

One lucky duck will win a gift bag full of salad goodies just like the one I received!

To enter the giveaway head over to Wish-Bone’s recipe page and tell me a recipe you’d like to try. This step must be done before you can qualify for extra entries.

Welcome to our Step into Summer event! Jennifer and I have some wonderful things lined up for you to help you get ready for summer. Make sure you visit Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom daily to see what she has in store for you too. Many days we will be reviewing and giving away the same item on both blogs – that is two chances for you to win!

“As a young girl I designed most of my clothing and was fortunate to have a very talented mother who could sew. She indulged me and made wonderful custom outfits for my first days of school, dances and special events. On occasion, we?d stay up almost all night selecting embellishments and making the outfit ?just right?. I recall the pride and satisfaction of creating something that was exclusively mine. I now have a 7 year old daughter who is designing clothing and asking me to make it for her. Fortunately, Grammy Rose is happy to take on most of these projects (along with a sword cover or two from my son, but that’s for our next project?). “


You can create totally customizable clothing for girls at Fashion Playtes. This site is so cool, I just couldn’t resist messing around and designing my own shirt {shown above}. It was so easy and really fun to do. There are all different steps and you get to choose your own things through each one. If I had a daughter, we’d be shopping this place all the time!

Here’s some finished designs worn by their models. Aren;t they super cool?? I think every girl’s dream is to be able to design their own clothes. This is such a neat idea!

The Giveaway

One lucky duck will win a $25 Gift Certificate for Fashion Playtes and be able to customize their own clothing or accessories!

To enter the giveaway head over to Fashion Playtes and take a look around. Then some back to tell me which piece of clothing or accessory you would customize. This step must be done before you can qualify for extra entries.

Step into Summer – Payless Shoe Source Review

Blog· Review

Welcome to our Step into Summer event! Jennifer and I have some wonderful things lined up for you to help you get ready for summer. Make sure you visit Jennifer at Eighty MPH Mom daily to see what she has in store for you too. Many days we will be reviewing and giving away the same item on both blogs – that is two chances for you to win!


I am a huge fan of Payless Shoe Source. I have shopped there since I was a little kid and will continue to shop there forever. At Payless Shoe Source, you never have to spend a lot for great style. Having two growing boys, I’m a thrifty kind of chick when it comes to shopping for myself. So it’s really nice to get a lot for a little.

I’m a total sandal and slip on kind of girl, so I chose the Steph Braided Rugged Slide for my review. I thoguht they were super cute and stylish. They’d also go along great with lots of different outfits of mine. I fell even more in love when I received them and started wearing them around. They really look great with jeans or capris and they’re pretty comfortable. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments on them too!

I am a total sucker for super sexy strappy sandals too and I about fell in love at first sight when I saw the Klaudette Flower Dress Sandal. Those things are just smokin’ hot! The price is super great too! You can’t beat that!

Sandals and heals are far from all that Payless Shoe Source offers though. They carry a number of accessories including handbags, sunglasses and belts!

Buy It!

You can buy the Steph Braided Rugged Slide on sale right now for only $9! Now that’s a steal if you ask me! They’re regular price is $22.99, which is still pretty cheap.

We have a large front porch that we like to sit on sometimes. It’s covered, so it’s even perfect in the rain. It’s kind of soothing to just sit out there.

When I found out NOVICA would be participating in the Step into Summer event, I started browsing the home decor section of their website. That’s when I came across a hammock section, then the Parachute hammock chair, ‘Easy Traveler’. I knew this would be absolutely perfect for my front porch!

It came in a carry case, so we can take it with us camping and stuff like that. It was really easy to put up and is just super comfortable to sit on.

NOVICA offers a whole section dedicated to handmade jewelry and has an assortment of gorgeous silver jewelry like the set to the right to choose from. They even offer corporate gifts and paintings.

What I really like about NOVICA, is that it supports artists and everything is made by one. I think that is really cool, and it’s definitely important to revel in creativity.
