Yoplait Frozen Smoothies and KitchenAid 3-Speed Blender Giveaway [CLOSED]
“Are you among the seven out of every ten individuals who don’t eat the recommended two servings of fruit per day (1 full cup)?
Yoplait® Frozen Smoothies are a quick and easy solution to help you get those important nutrients, plus a whole lot more, and now they’re available in a new, delicious Blueberry Pomegranate flavor!”
“Each package of Yoplait Frozen Smoothies contains one full serving of fruit (1/2 cup) and only 110 to 120 calories per serving. In addition to containing live and active cultures provided by Yoplait® yogurt, when prepared with skim milk and made according to package directions, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies are also a good source of calcium.
As seen on The Biggest Loser, which airs on Tuesdays at 8/7c on NBC, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies are also easy to make! To whip up perfectly blended smoothies in a snap, simply empty the package containing Yoplait frozen yogurt chips and frozen fruit into your blender, add skim milk, and blend. It’s that easy!”
We LOVE Yoplait Frozen Smoothies at our house. They taste delicious and are so fast and easy to make. We all love smoothies so we would have them regularly but being a busy working mom I just don’t have the time to make them from scratch. That is why I was so excited when I heard about Yoplait Frozen Smoothies. We tried the Blueberry Pomegranate and Triple Berry flavors. We love them both, very yummy. On my next trip to the store I will be picking up the Strawberry Mango Pineapple and Strawberry Banana, I can’t wait to try those flavors as well.
To make these delicious smoothies you have to have a good blender. I love my new 3-speed KitchenAid® Blender, it blends up a smoothie within a couple minutes, and even has a special smoothie setting. Making it super easy to enjoy these delicious smoothies fast! 
“Found in the frozen fruit aisle of your local grocery store, Yoplait Frozen Smoothies come in four delicious flavors, including: Blueberry Pomegranate, Triple Berry, Strawberry Banana, and Strawberry Mango Pineapple.”

Hair Products Pro Hotness Xtasy Flat Iron Review
I have naturally wavy hair and sometimes it’s hard to find a flat iron that will get my hair perfectly straight. I not only want one that gets it straight, but I also don’t want to be spending 45 mins just straightening my hair, especially since it’s short.
So I was thrilled when I was asked to review the Hotness Xtasy Flat Iron by Hair Products Pro. I have bought cheap flat irons in the past and they just don’t do the job like this professional one does! I really like how flat and straight this f
lat iron gets my hair. I have really thick hair and even though it’s short it is sometimes hard to get the back perfectly straight, but with this Flat Iron it is so easy!
I really love the look of the hot pink and black design, it’s just a fun way to do your hair. There are so many things that I love about this flat iron. Not only does it come with a 4 year warranty but there is also a full satisfaction guarantee! This awesome flat iron also comes in other colors and heats up in a manner of seconds!
“Hotness Styling Irons feature IntelTek advanced technology and combine it 
with ceramic tourmaline for accelerated ion generation, meaning vast amounts of negative ions for the smoothest, sleekest results. The lightweight and ergonomic design allows the stylist and client to achieve exceptional salon results quickly and effortlessly.” (Hair products Pro website)
This is one of THE best hair straightening iron that I have come across and works great!

“Have a Laugh” Volumes 1 and 2 Available on DVD Now
America’s Favorite Animated Mouse Keeps The Good Times Rolling In Two All-New DVD Collections of Laugh-Out-Loud Classic Cartoon Shorts
Available online and in stores now!
“For people of all ages that love to laugh, these hilarious collections of Mickey cartoons are sure to bring fun, laughter and smiles to every home. Not only will the cartoons keep viewers grinning from ear-to-ear, but Disney’s cool, all-new spins on classic comedy such as BLAM! episodes(laugh out loud physical comedy moments from the cartoons accompanied by hilarious new color commentary) and "Re-MICKS" (mash-up music videos of crazy cartoon clips remixed to hit songs like "Another One Bites the Dust" from Queen and "He Could Be the One" by Hannah Montana) will keep the entire family entertained with fun in every frame.”
ABOUT HAVE A LAUGH VOLUME 1:
Kids and adults can join Mickey, Donald, Pluto, Goofy and the rest of the gang on their rollicking escapades, as they star in a series of timeless Disney cartoons the entire family can enjoy. Have A Laugh Volume 1 features such classics as Mickey and the Seal, in which Mickey unexpectedly brings home a baby seal in his fish basket and chaos ensues. Additionally, Chip ‘n Dale are the stars of Winter Storage, a fun-filled tale in which the two mischievous 
chipmunks go after Donald Duck’s supply of acorns. And in Lonesome Ghosts Mickey, Donald and Goofy are ghost hunters who try to tackle four troublesome spooky specters. These and several other fast-paced comedy romps are featured on this delightful volume.
Featured cartoons include Mickey and the Seal, Lonesome Ghosts, Winter Storage, How to Hook Up Your Home Theater and Food for Feudin’; Featured BLAM!s include Sports, Skiing and Ice Skating; and the Re-MICKS mash-up is Touchdown Mickey featuring “Another One Bites The Dust” by Queen.
ABOUT HAVE A LAUGH VOLUME 2:
The fun continues with Have a Laugh Volume 2where viewers will be quickly howling with laughter as “Conductor Pete” nearly derails Mickey and Pluto’s train ride. Get set to “quack up” when Donald battles a noisy alarm clock and a feisty folding bed. Then, join Goofy on a sidesplitting ski trip as – “BLAM!” – he hits the slopes…really hard. And the fun doesn’t end there.
Featured cartoons includeMr. Mouse Takes a Trip, Clock Cleaners, Early to Bed, The Art of Skiing and Pluto’s Sweater; Featured BLAM!s include Skiing 2, Clock Cleaning and Artic Adventure; and the mash-up Re-MICKS is a music video of crazy cartoon clips remixed to “He Could Be The One” by Hannah Montana.
I grew up watching these classic Disney cartoons that are featured on these 2 Volumes. I absolutely loved them and they were (and still are) my favorite cartoons. So I was thrilled when I heard about “Have a Laugh” Volumes 1 and 2. Bug has only seen one or two of these cartoons before so I couldn’t wait to introduce them to him. I turned on the first Volume. His eyes were glued to our TV, same with the second disc. He begs me everyday to watch “Mickey Mouse”. I am so happy to see that he loves them as much as I did as a child. I 
even enjoy watching them with him and love that I remember them! Like the Goofy “How to hook up your home Theater”. Bug’s favorite is “Lonesome Ghosts” probably because he is in the Halloween spirit right now and is fascinated with all things ghost. These are a must have collection. They are classic and timeless and will be enjoyed for many generations to come!
“Have a Laugh” Volumes 1 and 2 get Bragging Rights!

Infantino and Annabel Karmel’s “Make it Easy” Baby Feeding Products Review
We had the opportunity to try out the new Infantino and Annabel Karmel “Make It Easy” Baby Food Product Line. You can read Joanna’s review of the other products and see what she likes. Here is what I reviewed:
Fresh Food Mill
The Annabel Karmel Make It Easy Food Mill is ideal for making smooth purees for feeding and weaning baby as it gets rid of tough fibers
which are difficult to digest in foods like dried apricots and sweetcorn. It is also great for pureeing foods such as potato as pureeing in a blender breaks down the starches and produces a sticky texture.
- Purees and minces for a fresh and easy to eat dish
- Ideal for vegetables and fruits
- Customized meals baby will love
- Dishwasher safe
- BPA Free
This food mill is so easy to use. Even though bug no longer eats baby food, we tried out this food mill by making our own banana baby food. It takes all the hassel out of making your own baby food. I wish I would have had it when bug was a baby. I made my own baby food many times and this would have made the process so much easier. I will be using this to make my own baby food and help wean my next babies for sure!
Steam Release Micro Dish
This Micro-cook Dish ensures healthy cooking for babies. Cooking food in a microwave is a healthy way of cooking as it helps to retain all the nutrients. The lid has an easy valve system to let the steam out of the container.
- Ideal for steaming/cooking fruit, vegetables or fish
- Unique valve pre-releases steam and closes for airtight storage
- Dishwasher, freezer and microwave safe
- BPA Free
I can’t even begin to tell you how much we use this at our house. Fresh vegetables are an important part of bugs diet, but before I got this dish I found myself slacking because it just takes to much time to prepare them. With this micro dish I can make steamed veggies for bug fast and easily. I love it!
Things that are Brag Worthy:
- Everything is easy to use
- Making your own baby food can be a breeze with these products
- So many great baby food recipes and ideas in the “Starting Solids” cookbook
- Everything is safe for baby
- Save money by making your own baby food
You can see all the products at www.infantino.com!

These cute foam letters and numbers come in 2 different sets of colors, numbers 1-9 and the entire alphabet! There are 62 playing pieces in all and they stick to the bathtub and shower when wet!
Growing Tree toys also has some other really
cute and fun Alex Bath toys. My daughter loves to make music and dance, so I really fell in love with the Tub Tunes Water Flutes and the Tub Tunes Xylophone. Both of these cute toys can be played with in the bathtub and even come with sheet music to help kids 
learn different songs!
There is also a great selection of toys for babies
and toddlers like the Rub a Dub Whistling Hippos Bath Toy and the Tub Joy Quacky cups. Such great, fun bath toys for kids!
Growing Tree Toys also has a great selection of Alex Games which is a great brand of cute fun toys. I loved their Alex Mini Golf game, which includes 4 different color foam balls, 2 foam clubs, and 6 cool holes, so fun! I think this would be an awesome gift for anyone. I also really like 
the Alex Jungle marble Maze. The colors and design is so unique, like nothing I have ever seen or played with before.
Growing Tree Toys is a great place to find gifts for kids of all ages.

Hefty Kitchen Bags with Unscented Odor Block Technology
I was introduced to Hefty Kitchen Bags with Unscented Odor Block technology about a month ago (in a review pack from My Blog Spark) and fell in love with them. They are so much better than the bags I was using previously. They are stronger for sure but I love the Odor Block Technology. It really is great. Often times we fill our trash can before garbage day (imagine all the boxes I receive!) so I am stuck storing my extra bags of trash in my garage. Well that can get pretty stinky. Enter Hefty Bags, the odor is contained, so no more “hurry and get in the house cause it stinks out here!” I also really like how they are unscented. I am not a big fan of scented trash bags it can just be too overwhelming. I am such a big fan of these bags that I actually bought 5 large boxes of these Unscented Kitchen Trash Bags on my last shopping trip. To try them is to love them!
Things that are Brag Worthy:
- Helps neutralize garbage odors
- Does not add any unwanted scents or fragrances
- Leaves your kitchen smelling the way you want
- Everyday Strength
Available in stores where Hefty Products are sold!

Our HEXBUG Nano House Party!
We were so lucky to be chosen to host a HEXBUG Nano house party! When our Party kit arrived I was blown away by how much fun stuff they sent us for the party! They sent us a bunch of HEXBUG Nano test tubes(enough for all the kids to have a few to play with and take home) 1 HEXBUG Nano Habitat Set, 1 HEXBUG Nano Bridge Battle Habitat Set, and Lots of extra pieces to build our own huge Nano habitat!
We already owned a few Nanos and other HEXBUGS before this party and were already big fans of these micro-robotic creatures. But we haven’t owned any of the habitats. So this was our first time experiencing them. All the kids had a blast putting together the habitats. They formed a bunch of fun designs and just kept thinking of more ideas. I love the creativity that comes into play with these habitat sets. Your child is the designer and the options are limitless. They ended up building it so big it took up 3/4 of my large dining room table! The Habitat sets are a must have with your Nanos, it gives them a place to play and explore and it is so fun to watch them.
They had so much fun playing with the nanos. Battling them on the Bridge, racing them, and building the habitats. What impressed me the most was how kids of all ages love these Nanos. From 2 years old to 11 years old, all the kids went crazy for these robotic insects. Even the adults had fun playing with them (myself included).
We had a blast and the kids were so excited when I told them that they got to keep a few of the Nanos as well as habitat pieces (we got so many for the party, we just had to share). So each child left with their new Nano friends and some habitat for them to play in!
This was such a fun experience and HEXBUG Nanos and habitats are so much fun! They are sure to be a hit with any child! You can see them online at www.hexbug.com and they are available in store at Target, Toys R Us and Radio Shack.
