Hasbro’s new Joy For All Companion pets come as a beautiful orange tabby cat and a golden retriever pup. They are so soft and cuddly buy image real animals. They move, make sounds, and feel like a real pet.

Joy For All

As I am getting older and my kids get older, life gets a bit lonely. I have always wanted to add a pet to our brood but costs and space have limited us. It makes me feel even worse for my grandmother who is survived by both her brothers and Husbands. She is all alone just needs some company. I make sure to call her everyday that I can.

Stomp Out Bullying Today October 3, 2016

- brandy3 2 Comments

Today is Stomp Out Bullying Day, a day to come together and stand up to bullying.

Each year on the first Monday of October kids, teens, and adults all across the country all across the country wear blue shirts in a show of solidarity against bullying to make that the day that bullying prevention is heard around the world. This important day gives students a unified voice and empowers those who are so often silent to be able to speak out together.

I do not stand for bullying at all, it’s the one thing I do not condone. As a child I was severely bullied because of a car accident that left me scared and I had to learn to control my left side from a stroke. It continued through being a teenager and even as a adult I still get bullied from people.

It was so bad as a teenager that I thought about suicide and doing horrible things to myself. It was just awful. No child should ever have to suffer at the hands of someones jealousy or hate. It’s the worst feeling in the world.

So today put on a blue shirt and sho your support to Stomp Out Bullying. You can get your official Stomp Out Bullying T-shirt here.

Biz Stainfighter Works on Carpets, Cars and More

- brandy3 1 Comment

Biz Stainfighter has been helping my kids clothes stay perfect and clean throughout the school year. Lets face it, they are messy and their clothes get stained like crazy. Biz Stainfighter has been getting out the stains through pretreating nd also adding a cup load into the wash.

Biz also works great on other items that can’t fit into the washing machine though, like carpets. upholstery and cars.

We tried Biz Stainfighter on a purple marker stain that has been sitting on our carpet for a couple months. It definitely lightened up the stain, but not completely removing it. It looks so much better now though.

A little about Biz:
Biz was the first enzyme based pre-soak and color-safe bleach that Moms have trusted to remove stains from the family’s laundry, for more than 40 years. Different types of stains need different ingredients to clean them. Science shows that there is no one single ingredient that cleans everything well. So why doesn’t every brand put all of these ingredients in? Probably because it costs more to do that. But BIZ didn’t cut corners here… BIZ has more stainfighters than other brands. That’s why it works better.

Have you used Biz before? What did you think?

You can find Biz at Walmart and select retailers nationwide.

If your like me you absolutely love the Sonic commercials on TV. They have me laughing every time. Growing up in AZ we lived right around the corner from Sonic Drive In and went there all the time. Then I moved to the East Coast and there wasn’t one around. Now that I am back on the west coast, I am excited to eat there again.

Just in time for Sonic is introducing their new Flavor Funnels.

Sonic

They were amazing although I couldn’t really see the Flavor Funnel. The ice cream alone was so good and had tons of Oreos in it. I had my kids with me so we tried each flavor and they loved it.

I also tried out some of their new boneless wings which comes in 6 different flavors. Including Garlic Parmesan, Hot Honey, Pineapple Habanero, Asian Sweet Chili, Buffalo, Honey BBQ. Boneless and crispy made to perfection.
I tried the Honey BBQ and buffalo. They were perfect and I am going to be ordering more for Football games.

I have been using the Atkins Meal Kit I got daily. Shake in the morning, a frozen meal for lunch and dinner, with a meal bar in between. As I had mentioned before in my previous post, my weight was up and down during my trial with the Atkins Meal Kit.

I am happy to say that after the Atkins meal kit and keeping at it daily with my workout routine, and I am down 12 lbs. Although a few pounds have been added on since I have been off Atkins now a few days. I am satisfied though with my results.

The Atkins meal kit comes with a variety of different options and meal that you can choose. I chose the Easy Peasy meal kit, as I am a busy mom and it seemed simple.

Every morning I would have a shake, either Vanilla, chocolate or strawberry. They were actually tasty and very fulfilling.
At lunch I would eat a Atkins Taco Meal or the meat loaf.
A Meal bar a few hours later as a snack.
Dinner another frozen meal.

It’s just a simple meal plan.

As a family of 5, we go through Toilet paper like crazy. I always look for the strongest and softest toilet paper, 2 ply is a must of course. I have been using the same brand for years and loved it, but was recently introduced to a new line of Charmin Toilet paper and had my family try it for a week. They did notice the difference automatically, and asked if I had bought something different.

dscn4123

Charman Essentials is introducing Charmin Essentials Soft and Charmin Essentials Strong, both lines are perfect for families with kids and will hold up to any mess. Plus they keep noses soft and not dried out.

It’s great for families on a budget and has more product to offer then competitors. As proof here is the brand my family has been using for years compared to Charmin Essentials Soft.

dscn4124

You can tell which one is Charmin without even labeling it, as it looks softer and bigger than the other brand.

Right now Upgrade your toilet paper just by tweeting to the company: It’s a great promotion and you get a free roll of toilet paper.

Upgrade your Angel Soft for Charmin Essentials Soft or Scott 1000 to Charmin Essentials Strong just send a TP Swap out request to @Charmin using the hashtag #CharminEssentials and #Promotion, and Charmin will send you a free roll. Please see term and Conditions here.

It’s that simple and you can try it yourself.

After our week of just using Charmin Essentials Soft, we loved it. It was soft and durable, my young kids were at ease using it with no complaints of roughness. I think we will definitely be making the switch, it seems like a better buy in the long run and you get more bang for your buck.

Have you tried Charmin Essentials? You can find Charmin Essentials at all major retailers.

Atkins Makes Meal Planning Simple

- brandy3

I have been on a mission to lose weight since we moved to California. I’ve been hiking and hating the gym everyday, but felt I needed to do more so I started to meal plan. The Atkins Easy Peasy Meal kit makes, planning meals so easy and stress free.

You start with Shakes for Breakfast, a meal bar for snack and a yummy frozen meal for lunch and dinner. It was a hard adjustment at first but half way through the week, it became easier. The shakes were very good. The frozen meals were also good, well most of them. My favorite was the Taco bake bowls.

Nature Made® Kids First® Gummies At Target

- brandy3 1 Comment

This post was sponsored by Nature Made® as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central.

This summer has been absolutely crazy. We moved 3000 miles to a new state, we have done a lot of sight seeing, and so much more. One thing I have to admit I have been bad about this summer is my kids eating healthy or taking their vitamins.

The summer just got so busy and a bit sad when having to leave friends, so a lot of things took a backseat. Now that the kids are back in school, I am implementing our schedule again. My kids are very picky in what they eat, so I always try and substitute something in, like vitamins, or smoothies etc.

My youngest has always refused to take vitamins because he hates having to swallow things whole, but now there are gummy vitamins and they are perfect for any age.

Screen Shot 2016-08-25 at 9.38.00 AM

Finding them in store was rather simple. They were brightly displayed and were easy to spot with all the kids vitamins. They were also on sale which even made them a better buy.

Nature Made

Nature Made® Kids First® Gummies feature:
Contains 12 essential nutrients for age-specific nutritional support, including vitamins A, C, D and E, B vitamins, and minerals like iodine and zinc
All natural fruit flavors Colors
derived from natural sources – No synthetic dyes
No preservatives or yeast
Gluten free

My kids reactions to Nature Made® Kids First® Gummies have been positive they love the flavors. They are easy to swallow and never complain when I say its time to take a vitamin. They are the ones actually coming to me, asking for one before school. That may just be my biggest problem. My kids love them so much they keep asking for them and want to treat them like candy. The design and child prof cap keeps them safe though, and of course having them put away safely.

Have you tried Nature Made® Kids® First® Vitamins with your family? You can find them at Target stores nationwide.

I absolutely love to color my nails and having two daughters they love it too. Whenever we go to the store we are always looking for the newest colors and how they would look. When I heard about SinfulColors Pride Collection, I wanted it.

Each of the eight shades in the pride collection captures the energy and passion of freedom and love. Each bottle is beautiful but together they form a rainbow united in color.

The colors are: Resilient, Sugar Pumpkin, Bye Felicia, Envious, GoGo Boy, Love Thy Self, Call Me Violetta, and pride.

SinfulColors Pride

I have been trying to change my colors frequently to try them all. My first week, I had Love Thy Self, with Envious on my middle fingers and then the pride glitter polish on top. The colors are just gorgeous. I had people complimenting my nails all the time.

Screen Shot 2016-07-07 at 11.53.20 AM

This week I changed to just Orange (Sugar Pumpkin) and love the color. I tried Yellow (Bye Felicia) on my toes but didn’t like the way they came out. Maybe I’ll just use the yellow for designing on my nails.

Have you found the SinfulColor Pride Collection in stores yet? You can find them at retailers nationwide or Buy the pack here.

This watch is perfect for anyone in your life.

For the ladies my favorite is the Cora Purpleheart and Mother of Pearl.

This watch is gorgeous. I wear it all the time and have received so many compliments about it. The watch is very delicate though as it is made of wood, I am so afraid I am going to break it at times.

The watch arrives in a beautiful wooden box that can be used for anything afterwards. The watch is seated on a soft pillow which just makes the setting as gorgeous.
