The Swiss Colony 82 All-Time Favorite Things Review, and Giveaway (Retail Value $129.95.)


Here are a few of my favorite things,
Life According To GreenVics 2013 Holiday Gift Guide.

The Swiss Colony 82 All-Time Favorites Food Gift Box. First I'd like to point out how fast shipping was. Came the same week it was ordered.  It's an impressive 10 lb. box full of cheeses, sausages, cookies, nuts, candies and jams.  The great thing about The Swiss Colony is that you can request a free catalog to browse at home by going [here]. 


Opening the Swiss Colony package was so much fun.  It was delivered in a red, and white box with The Swiss Colony written all over it.  My husband answered the door, and started screaming The Swiss Colony package is here!! My little one helped me open the box, and remove (pop the bubble wrap.) I was excited, and curious to how exactly 10 pounds of snacks like this were mailed.  


It was a bit overwhelming seeing all the snacks in the box.  However my son had no problem jumping right in.  He went straight for the Swiss Creme Cookie, and Old World Cookies.  They had no chance to even be photographed.  He does this thing.. where he sniffs things before he puts it to his nose.. Always.. every piece of food.. I guess if it passes his sniff test, it's good enough to eat.  He's two.. I try not to over analyze the logic behind a toddler.  I just know he ate it all on the spot, and didn't run around crazy playing with it.  


I attempted to take everything out of the box, and try to organize it.  There is so much that I had a hard time taking a photo of it all in the same frame.   I just wanted to dump it out, and roll around in it while calling it my precious.

What I really liked about this box is the fact I can make separate gifts, or I can just prepare a tray for guests.


Everything in me wanted to go straight for the sweets, but I decided to try the Summer Sausage, Cheddar Cheese, and Swiss & Ham Spread.  *Crackers not Included.  There is an abundance of meat, and cheese in this package that it's smart to buy boxes of your favorite crackers.


Let me just tell you.. it filled my snack craving! Loved the combo between the sausage, and cheeses.  The meat was moist, and cheese was smooth.  Seriously, best meat, and cheese holiday box ever.

I believe there is something in this 82 All-Time Favorites Box for everyone.  

There is also mini loafs of breads, and petite fours.  Even a Chocolate Holiday Mouse.  Oh? And, can't forget the chocolate covered butter toffee.


I send my Mom & Dad packages for the Holidays.  I know they like the snack on things too.  I know kits like these are more than just a one time use gift.  The 82 All-Time Favorites Box retails for $129.95, plus shipping & handling.  Last time I mailed something out of state, it cost me over $20.00, and I'm over the hassle of going to the post office, and worrying if my package is actually going to make it there on time, or at all.  I'd rather just find a gift box, and have it mailed to them from the company now.  Saves me time, and stress.

Easy smash cake recipes, perfectly-sized for baby to dig right in!

I'm a first time mom, and had no idea what Smash Cakes were, or why they were needed.  Now I know how easy it is to make your own cakes, and even decorate them without spending too much time on them. Betty Crocker shows how easy it is to create these Smash Cakes in an easy step by step on pinterest!

I am learning that it does not matter how much you spend on the birthday parties, or the cakes.  It's the love, and enjoyment in celebrating.  The smash cakes makes it fun for the little ones to get involved, and a lot messy.  I think its a great way to step back, and let a little kid, be a little kid.  


Sy's first birthday was easy,  We had it somewhere that the whole family could have fun at, and he was allowed to run around too (Sy had been walking/running since 9 months old!) I didn't care to spend a ton of money on decorations, or cakes.  I did make my own Fondant Figure for his cake.  I do believe birthday parties for little kids really don't have to be as hard as some parents stress over.  It's a party!! Long as the cake is delicious, the company is fun.. It will be a hit.

Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil Review, Easy Crab Cake Recipe with Steamed Veggies.

My Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil Review through Smiley360., and Super easy Crab Cakes with Steamed Veggies Recipe.


When I'm in the mood to cook, and have ingredients that I love to eat.. I totally cook with love.  I received a $10.00 Walmart Giftcard, and Bottle of Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil to try, and review through Smiley360 Blogger Circle.  I had to make up a recipe, and incorporate the Oil into it, while also using my $10.00 Giftcard for ingredients.

I already had the seasoning, eggs, and red onions.  So I splurged and bought the Broccoli heads $2/2, and the Baby Bella Mushrooms $1.50.  The rest of the money I used to buy Blue Crab meat in the Refrigerated section near the Fresh Seafood, and Cut Meat.



Ingredients:
  •  (2 heads) Broccolli
  • 1 package of Baby Bella Mushrooms
  • (2 medium sized) Red Onions
  • Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • (2) Large Eggs
  • Italian Bread Crumbs
  • Old Bay
  • Pepper
  • True Lemon Powder
  • Garlic Powder
  • Soy Sauce
  • 2 Non-Stick Frying Pans
  1. First Wash, and prepare your Veggies.  Doesn't really matter, just cut them to your liking. Set aside til you are ready to steam. 
  2. You'll need to add 2 tsp of Italian Bread Crumbs ( I don't add a lot of breading.) 1/2 tsp of Old Bay, 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder, 1/2 tsp Pepper, 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder to the bowl you'll be adding the Crab Meat to.
  3. Open the Crab, and break the already picked pieces into the bowl with the dried herbs.  
  4. Crack the 2 eggs into the bowl with the Crabs, and dried herbs.  
  5. Work the Crab into patties.  (I make the patties, and sit mine onto parchment paper while the frying pan gets ready.) The best way I can explain on how to make the perfect crab cake is, you know how when you roll clay into a ball into your hands? Work the Crab meat like that. Once its a ball, press it between your hands just enough to give it a flat patty shape.  If it's too wet, add more bread crumbs, if it's too dry, add more egg.
  6. Coat your pan with Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It's pretty thick (Which is GREAT.) so I take a paper towel and coat the pan all the way around before it becomes too hot. Don't be scared to use a lot of Olive Oil.  It doesn't over power the food, and fries up nicely.  So coat it like you want something fried.
  7. Take your freshly made patties, and ONLY put them in the pan when the pan is Hot, if you put them in the pan while the oil is still cold.. what's the point in frying? It turns food soggy.  So let the pan heat up some. 
  8. Let the Patties fry for a few minutes(goto step 9. but come back here in a few minutes.) in a 2nd pan while this fries.) before checking with a spatula to see if anything is sticking, just slide the spatula under the patty, move the patty some ( My pans awesome, I usually just have to shake the pan.) While still on high, flip the patties over to the other side, and let that side fry on high for a few minutes too.  You can drop the heat down to Medium after that.
  9. While the patties are frying, start your veggies.  Coat the pan with Olive Oil, Pour the Fresh Veggies in, I also like to add just a little bit of water so the veggies steam some while in the pan.  Add 2 tsp of the True Lemon Powder, 1/2 Pepper, and As much Soy Sauce as your little heart desires.  I don't cook with salt because for one, The Old Bay has sodium in it that I used for the Patties, and the Soy Sauce I use is Low Sodium.  


I was very pleased with how the Oil fried, and the food tasted.  

Interested in trying Pompeian Olive Oil too? Check them out on the Smiley360 page, and print a $1.00 off coupon! Good food + Saving money = My Weakness.


I received product to facilitate a review for being a Smiley360 Blogger.

The Tattoo Pill Review.


I have been taking The Tattoo Pill for over 3 weeks now.  It's full of various Vitamins that body needs anyways, that I should be taking since I am in the dreaded 30's to begin with.  It's just even nicer that by taking these, you are helping to UP your natural immune system.  I had no side effects, and felt pretty good waking up in the AM.  The pills are Gluten Free, and 100% Vegetable.

 The Pin-Up chick on the bottle made me smile.  Least that makes it different than all other Vitamin Bottles.  Want to know more? Ask them!

Check out The Tattoo Pill on Facebook @ http://www.facebook.com/TheTattooPill

Overall opinion on the Tattoo Pill - Super cute bottle.  Love the Pin-up Old School aspect, and the Vitamins inside.  I also think since it's vitamins, and you're into piercings as well.  This can help your bodies immune system in the healing process too.  I am not a doctor, and all opinions are my own.  You can always ask your doctor if taking these pills would be a good idea, especially if you are on any other kind of vitamins.

Product Description

The Tattoo Pill is packed with 30 vitamins and minerals that your body needs to help operate at ideal levels. The Tattoo Pill has 15 ingredients that are 100% OR MORE of the recommended daily intake percentage endorsed by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).

Some people think getting a tattoo is simple and easy, just go to the shop and have some ink put under your skin. However, there is more to it if you want a healthy tattoo that heals nicely and looks great. When you are getting a tattoo you are having very tiny needles poke holes in your skin, over and over and over again. What ends up happening is that you are left with an open wound and your body is working overtime to help fight off infection and heal your skin. The best way to prevent infection and help your body heal as fast as possible is to make sure your body has the vitamins and nutrients it needs to facilitate the healing process.

Why are you SMILING IT FORWARD™?



I'm SMILING IT FORWARD™ because of how easy the new Childrens Tylenol has made it to measure out the right dosage, and help make it possible for my toddlers symptoms to be more tolerable.  Anything that makes my baby boy feel better while hes sick I am all for.


I received the Tylenol SMILING IT FORWARD™ kit to review.  The kit came with a 2gig flash drive, picture frame, iphone hard plastic case, and the new grape Infants' Tylenol medicine. 


First thing I noticed when I opened the white box by untying the red ribbon was the idea of using the box as a picture storage box.  It's a well made box.


I then opened the Infants' Tylenol to see what this new lid piece and syringe was about.  To measure the dose for Sy would be based upon weight, and he is 35 lbs, so he could get 5 mL.  All I had to do was stick the syringe tip in the little hole ontop the Tylenol bottle, hold the bottle upside down, and syringe the amount needed in.  It did not leak, I even squirted the medicine back in the hole with no problems.  I tasted a little to check what Sy will be in for when he does need it, and the grape really isn't bad, it was sweet while not medicated flavored. I feel better knowing it does not taste disgusting. I just want him to be comfortable, as comfortable as he can be while not feeling himself.

Upload your own photo that makes you smile on the SMILING IT FORWARD™ website, www.SmilingItForward.com !

Sy is my reason for Smiling!

Gorton's Wicked Good Seafood Review & Giveaway.


Everyone in my family are huge seafood fans.  Even my little one will eat it.  Recently we had the opportunity to review Gortons Seafood Products.

(I made fish sticks, popcorn shrimp, and french fries with tartar sauce.)


My Kit came with Coupons, a keychain, Fisherman shaped flash drive, recipes, and postcards.  All which came packaged in a resealable Gortons packaging. I thought that was the most coolest touch.

I went straight to my local Giant Eagles because they have the 115 resealable bags of. Gortons.  I also picked up a family size bag of Gortons Popcorn Shrimp.  I had no problems finding Gortons in the frozen seafood section.  The hard part was choosing what to try.  All the Fish Fillets looked delicious too. That is on my list to try next.



Cooking the fish sticks, and popcorn shrimp were as easy as turning on the oven, placing parchment paper on a baking sheet (I do it this way because its easier to clean up.) Then just bake for 15 minutes. I also baked fries on the same tray.


I  made tartar sauce using just mayo, sweet dill relish, and pepper.

The Gortons fishsticks and popcorn shrimp came out crispy, full of flavor, and I still have enough in the bags for more meals this week.

I am most impressed with the 115 fish stick pack that is resealable.  Its so easy to take a few out and make lunch during the day. Even better since it actually tastes great, and my picky little eater likes it too.


To find more recipes like Tender Fish Tacos using Gortons Fish Fillets check out Gortons Recipes Page. Don't forget to also stop by Gortons to Enter The Wicked Good Seafood Sweepstakes, I always say this, and 100% mean it, you'll never win anything, unless you enter something!

Luvs #TheClueIsInTheBlue Diaper Review.


Did you know that the clue is in the blue?? With Luvs Super Absorbent Leak Guard Diapers.  I noticed the stretch to the diapers right away, and the light baby powder scent.  It's a nice scent.  After using them on my son, I was quite impressed at how well they lasted.  I did like that the sides did not sag down (So many diapers do that, its sad.) when wet.  The tabs were extremely easy to attach, and detach to the sides.  So it passed that test with flying blue colors.


The leak guard works well enough that it is even safe to ride piggy back on Daddys shoulders, without the thought that something was going to leak out!! Nothing leaked while wearing his Size 5 Diapers.


What made this fun, was the Clue Is In The Blue Luvs Game, and the USB Flash Drive that is also a working whistle.  We had fun with the kit.


I received products to facilitate a review for Luvs, this is a #Sponsored Post.  

LeapReader™ "Ready, Set, Read & Write" Party!



LeapReader™ "Ready, Set, Read & Write" Party,



Absolutely loved the preloaded Get Ready for Kindergarten Books that were on the Leap Readers. What made this party perfect, were the age ranges of 4-6 years old, and most of the Books, and Flash Cards are right in that range.

Get Ready for Kindergarten is loaded with multi-subject interactive curriculum for math, science, reading, social studies.  The art work, and fun audio effects makes it easier to want to learn.


Included were, Disney-Pixar Monsters University 3D book, Talking Words Factory Flash Cards, LeapReader™ Sampler book, LeapReader™ Write It! Talking Words Factory Writing Workbook, LeapReader™ Write It! Learn to Write Letters Writing Workbook, Audio Book Apps: Ozzie and Mack, T.Rex's Mighty Roar. Music Apps: Leap Frog learning Songs. Trivia App: Animal Facts Trivia Challenge.


The Party was a success, all of the kids could easily hold the Leapfrog Pen, and touch the Colors to start the Work Books.  The Leap Frog is extremely easy to use.  All that had to be done was to turn the Pen on, touch the colored button at the bottom of the page, and instantly it knows what page it's on.


The LeapReader Pen is by far, the Coolest, Easiest Way To Learn interactively with Books, and Flashcards. I also liked that I could print out more of the Activity Papers, and use those with the preloaded Sheets.

I received free Leapfrog products in order to host the Leapfrog sponsored Mommy Party.  The opinions expressed here are my own. to facilitate a review, and party.
