I was given the opportunity to review Horizon Organic Lowfat Chocolate Milk with DHA Omega-3 and I can’t tell you how excited I was. I have a 6 year old who may just be the pickiest eater on the planet! He does not like vegetables of any kind and fruit is like poison to him, so I have to ply him with vitamins any way I can to make sure he is getting his daily intake.
This is why I was so excited to review the Horizon Organic Lowfat Chocolate milk. He loves milk of any kind and if it is chocolate, it’s even better. The fact that it has DHA Omega-3 in it is even better since I know that this helps support brain, heart and eye health and I remember DHA being in his formula as a baby. And guess what? He absolutely loves it and drank two cups the first time we tried it. It is super creamy and the chocolate flavor is awesome, not artificial like some can tend to taste.
Here are some important facts about DHA and Horizon Organic Lowfat Chocolate Milk directly from Horizon’s website:
DHA provides a nutritional boost for children’s growing minds and bodies. Children’s brains grow incredibly fast. In fact, the brain nearly quadruples in the first five years of life.
DHA is a key structural component of the brain, yet many young children don’t get their recommended daily amount of DHA as it is found in a limited number of food sources.
Horizon Organic Milk Plus DHA Omega-3 is fortified with a natural, 100 percent vegetarian and sustainable source of DHA – a safe, wholesome, delicious way to bring more of this important nutrient into your family’s diet.

(2 winners will be selected to win 4 coupons each (2 coupons for a free half gallon of Horizon Organic Lowfat Chocolate Milk with DHA Omega-3 and 2 coupons for $1 off the same product).

Ragú is teaming up with actress and mom Molly Ringwald (love her, being the 80’s child that I am) to promote the Recipe for a Good Start Contest asking moms to share their recipes for a good start and for a chance to win a $5,000 college scholarship.
The whole premise behind this great new contest from Ragú is to encourage more families to spend time at the dinner table. The dinner table is the place where everyone can sit and share what has happened in their day and therefore become closer as a result. I know many of us are very busy and we have all been guilty of sitting in front of the TV while eating dinner but with a great recipe, we can have everyone wanting to sit at the dinner table every night.
You can go to www.recipeforagoodstart.com, and submit your original Ragú recipe for a “good start” in life. There will be three first prize winners who will be awarded a family trip to New York City where they will compete in a nationally televised Ragú Recipe Challenge for the chance to win the ultimate prize of a $5,000 college scholarship. Imagine how fun that would be!
I was given the wonderful opportunity to review a business started by a fabulous lady. Her business is called Snail Mail Notes, a wonderful business about keeping in touch with friends and family the old fashioned way – by writing!
I have to admit that I have gone the way of email and the Internet to keep in touch with friends and family and I suppose many of you have as well. It’s easy right? But I still love getting those little thoughtful notes or cards in the mail with handwritten correspondence. These days they only seem to come during the holidays but those little notes of how someone is doing mean so very much to me *hint, hint* .
This is why I was excited to review Snail Mail Notes. I want and need to get back to keeping in touch with my friends and family the old fashioned way with handwritten notes. I can’t wait to send them off and imagine seeing their faces once they receive my note.
Now you can do the same by winning some Snail Mail Notes to keep in touch with your loved ones.

2 winners will win $5 worth of Snail Mail Notes of their choice. (Must equal up to $5).
TO ENTER (Mandatory): Leave a comment telling me which Snail Mail Notes card is your favorite.

If you haven’t heard of Fresh Wave then you are missing out! Fresh Wave products are natural odor eliminating products that are not only safe for your home but also safe for your family and pets.
Fresh Wave products intrigued me because they are all natural and most importantly aren’t full of flowery fragrances that just cover up odors. I have pets and boys, so my home has a myriad of smells all of the time. I love the fact that the natural extracts of soy, lime, pine needle, aniseed, clove and cedar wood provide not only a clean scent but it literally eats up all of the nasty smells.
I was given the opportunity to review Fresh Wave Pearl Packs and I love, love, love them! I put one in my boys room (in the closet) as well as next to the cat litter and one for the Van. You can use the Pearl Packs in any small area like closets, inside sneakers or even in a diaper pail. The smell they emit is fresh and clean and they rid the room of odor for up to 30 days.
Fresh Wave’s site also has a nifty little tool called the “Odor Solution Finder” where you can click on a room and they will tell you what the best product would be to eliminate the odor, very cool! Also, they have a pet line as well called “Fresh Wave Pets.”
Whatever odors you have lurking around your home, and let’s face, we ALL have some kind of funky smell, Fresh Wave products can help you keep your home smelling fresh. Be sure to check out the entire line of Fresh Wave Products.
WIN A FRESH WAVE PEARL PACK
2 winners will each receive one package each of Fresh Wave’s Pearl Pack (each package contains five sachets inside).
TO ENTER (Mandatory): Leave a comment telling me which Fresh Wave product you would like to try to rid your home of odors.

I am in love………….no, not with a person but with coffee! I am a serious coffee drinking fool! The first thing I do in the morning is head for the coffee maker and brew my first pot. Yes, I said “first” since my coffee maker gets a complete workout each and every day since both my husband and I are true coffee lovers.
Since we love coffee so much, I was excited to learn about the 100% Colombian Coffee “See What’s Behind the Best” sweepstakes. You can learn about the philosophy behind 100% Colombian Coffee by visiting www.whatsbehindthebest.com, and enter to win great prizes. The grand prize is $10,000! That would keep hubby and I in coffee for at least a year
You can also get the chance to meet Juan Valdez and his mule, Conchita (had no clue that was its name) and taste 100% Colombian Coffee – the richest coffee in the world. They will be embarking on a tour across the United States starting March 2nd in New York City. Click here to see when he is coming to your city!

If you are a child of the 80’s like I am, then you must remember Rainbow Brite. She was a colorful rainbow adorned little girl who along with her Sprite named Twink and horse named Starlite lived in Rainbow Land and was in charge of all of the colors of the rainbow. 25 years later, Hallmark has updated the Rainbow Brite characters by aging them a bit and creating all new adventures.
I used to be upset that they aged my beloved character’s but when it comes down to it, I understand. Today’s children aren’t like we were in the 80’s, so creating characters that they in 2010 can relate too, is important.
I was given the opportunity from MomSelect and Hallmark to review a Rainbow Brite Adventure Pack which consists of a CD ROM full of games, puzzles and an introduction to the new updated Rainbow Brite bunch. If you have a little girl in your life, this is your opportunity to share a beloved character from your childhood with them and relive your childhood memories.
Be sure to check out Hallmark’s official Rainbow Brite site for games, downloads and products. The new dolls are adorable!
WIN A RAINBOW BRITE CD ROM – 4 WINNERS!
TO ENTER (Mandatory): Leave a comment telling me your favorite Rainbow Brite character or leave a memory of Rainbow Brite you had as a child.
EXTRA ENTRIES – For each extra entry, please leave a separate comment with information you performed the task.
