Mozaik entertain with style Review and Giveaway ~ MyBlogSpark

March 10, 2011 by Gigi at 2:29 am

Mozaik is the perfect solution for those occasions when you don’t have enough dinner ware. For under $10, Mozaik’s new Service for Eight kit will help you stop scrambling for extra place settings when your guest list is larger than your china and flatware collection. The 40-piece “party in a box” adds eight place settings (forks, knives and spoons, salad plates and dinner plates) and is great for every holiday gathering from a small cocktail party to a large holiday buffet.

Designed to look like real permanent ware, Mozaïk is actually plastic party ware that can be washed and reused, or simply disposed of. It provides a fashionable, affordable alternative to paper plates and fine china. Available in both Classic and Contemporary styles, Mozaïk products range from round and square plates, to silver-look cutlery and serving items to mini appetizer ware, creating a nicer impression at any occasion.

Mozaik offers the ease of using disposables without sacrificing style; simply toss the mess for an easier clean up. You can also opt to reuse Mozaik, just hand wash or place the party ware in the dishwasher on the gentle cycle. The more care they are given the more times you can reuse them.

My Thoughts:

I have to say that Mozaik has truly amazing plastic eatery. Due to my being ill around Christmas we didn’t use them then; however, when we were able to we had my family of 7 over and the first thing out of my sister’s mouth was MoM got new China! I burst out laughing considering my Mom has had the same China since 1973. My Mom thought the plastic silverware was actual real silver and she instantly wanted her own set. We are a GREEN family so we plan on re-using them until they can no longer be used. We had a Bar-B-Que that night so the meat was all stacked on the 2 trays that were provided and the bowl was used for the mustard potato salad. The serving utensils are just as impressive as the regular forks, spoons and knives. My Mom had to remind us over and over how much she loved the silver coloring around the plates. My Mom is a bit country and I think she believes this is her new China for real. HA HA! But you gotta love her. Now back to the Mozaik Dinnerware, it serves 8 and comes with 40 pieces, you may purchase other pieces separate like the trays come in a pack of 2 and the one big bowl with a lid comes by itself. Another thing that I really liked about Mozaik products is that you don’t always want to eat on glass or even on plastic plates. So, now we are being given an in-between choice which is really nice. Overall, the family and myself loved the Mozaik entertain with style Motto and the products themselves. The only downfall I found was that the silver on the bowl started to come off after a few washes, but hey it’s plastic and not a real big deal.

1 x Photo Frame with key ring;

My Thoughts:

Why carry only 1 picture in your wallet when you can carry many on this 1.5” digital photo frame. I was excited when I was given the opportunity to review one of these. I received a pink one, since it is my favorite color. It is nice that these Key-chains come in multiple colors so you can pick your favorite. This photo keychain is so easy to use. You connect the keychain to your PC using a provided USB cable and you can begin to download photos onto your keychain in just seconds. The instructions provided in the package are easy to follow. Once you choose the photos which you want you are able to crop them and make them close up’s which is a good idea as the screen is 1.5”. The quality of the photos are actually better than I thought they would be on the little screen. Best thing is to crop the photo, use close ups and use pics of landscape with vibrant colors. You can set this little photo album up as a slide show and you get to pick the amount of time between flipping through the photos which is nice. Another nice feature is that you don’t have to connect this to your PC to delete photos, you just do it from the main menu. To charge all you have to do is plug the USB cable into your PC and its charged back up to take on the run with you. Overall, a great little gadget that is inexpensive that you can carry with you to show off your favorite family/friends photos. I also love that you can have it engraved as a special keepsake gift. What more could one want in a key chain?!

Buy It: If you are interested in purcharsing this 1.5″ Digital Pink Photo Key Chain it’s available at WholeSaleKey Chains. (ARV $9.99)!

Review of Perdue Chicken Breast Nuggets via SheSpeaks + Coupon

November 9, 2010 by Gigi at 3:14 am

It’s not always easy to feed your family a healthy meal. In between all the things you have to do, you might not get to the grocery store in time! Stocking up on more wholesome frozen foods makes sure you’ll skip on serving fast foods. These nuggets are 100% white meat with no fillers or preservatives. (Plus they’re baked – not fried!) They want to hear what you AND your family think of Perdue Frozen Breaded Chicken Nuggets!

Did you know that Perdue is a family owned company and that the current chairman is the third generation Perdue to lead it? Not only is Jim Perdue the leader of the company, he is also its spokesperson.

My thoughts of the Perdue Nuggets were fantastic. I love that they don’t have any additives or perservatives, all white meat, that they are not fried and still tasted wonderful. The added plus was that both my step-son (Julian) and my Hubby (Joseph) loved them as well. I think I just might have to add this to my continuous grocery list. I hope all of my fabulous readers’ get a chance to try them as well. And as an added bonus there is a $1.00/1 Coupon that you can print below.

I was given the opportunity to review the Perdue Products with the family because of my membership at SheSpeaks!

Cooking Connection videos

Featured Cooking Connection products

Meet the Cooking Coaches

Their cooking coaches come from several different backgrounds. Many have attended culinary schools or trained as chefs and worked in restaurants. Others simply love to cook. The one thing they all have in common is their passion for food and for you, their customers.

Their coaches can show you how to:

Get dinner on the table with minimal time and effort
Entertain during the holidays
Throw a tailgate party
Plan food for any occasion

It’s really not as hard as people might think, especially with simple recipes and flavors that inspire even the most novice and inexperienced cooks. Coaches make it easy, fun, and rewarding.

Adam’s Reserve Rubs

The Adams Reserve line was developed by cooks for cooks. These flavor-packed rubs make roasts and steaks taste like they came out of a steak house kitchen. Blends of pepper, garlic, and spices are ground finer than most rubs to adhere to your meats better. This rub locks in juices to keep your meat moist and tender while providing a flavorful crispy crust on the exterior.

I will be glad to send you two bottles, and then can set aside two more bottles for you to distribute to winners. I haven’t had a chance to try out the seasoning myself, so I’m looking forward to hear what you think of it. You can find Cooking Connections inside select H-E-B stores where you can find new recipes and some yummy samples. We release new Cooking Connection videos all the time. You can subscribe at youtube.com/heb or we’ll post a new video to Facebook every other Wednesday.

My Thoughts:

When approached to try the Adams Reserve Peppercorn & Garlic Sear-N-Crust Rub, I have to admit I was pretty excited. I like to consider myself a Grillin’ Queen. We first tried the rub on some steaks and let me tell you, they never tasted better. Our family loves garlic and that pepper gave it a kick. My family is in aggreeance that this rub is by far one of the best we have ever tried. I’m looking forward to trying other Adams Reserve Products in the near future.

Buy It: A few of the ingredients in these recipes (marked with asterisk) are only available at the Cooking Connection and are exclusive to HEB–you can’t get them anywhere else. Many are made right here in Texas (prices vary).

Febreze Set and Refresh with Sandra Lee ~ Review + Giveaway

August 7, 2010 by Gigi at 3:18 am

Febreze has partnered with America’s favorite budget-savvy hostess Sandra Lee to introduce the latest air freshening innovation! The new Febreze Set & Refresh slowly releases scented oils to provide odor elimination and noticeably long-lasting freshness without the use of plugs or batteries.

Summer is just heating up and Sandra Lee has participated in a series of videos to share her summer entertaining tips and recipes. Find out how Sandra keeps her home fresh for summer guests by checking out the videos on Febreze’s official YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/febreze.

Scents Available:

Natural~ Meadows & Rain and Linen & Sky
Floral~ Spring & RenewalFruity & Refreshing~ Apple Spice & Delight
Exotic~ Hawaiian Aloha and Thai Dragon Fruit

Sandra Lee’s Fresh Summer Entertaining Tips and Recipes:

Plan for the Unexpected

Before planning the theme, menu or party décor, I make sure I am always prepared with a few entertaining essentials and Semi-Homemade recipes. Stock up on staples like cake and cookie mix, which will come in handy should you have more guests show up than anticipated.

Keep It Fresh

Keeping your home fresh during the hot summer months isn’t always easy. One simple solution I like to use is air fresheners that you don’t have to continually spray or remember to plug in. The new Febreze Set & Refresh provides constant odor elimination and noticeably long-lasting freshness for up to 30 days with out the use of plugs or batteries.

Small Embellishments Make a Difference

Don’t have all the ingredients for your famous margaritas or sweetened iced tea? Make a great-tasting, fresh drink so any unexpected guest feels special by simply adding some fresh embellishments like, mint, cucumbers, or fruit slices to pitchers of ice water and garnish with a little on the rim of their glass. I always keep fresh fruit and veggies on hand so this is easy to prepare in minutes.

My Thoughts:

I received a sample of Febreze Set & Refresh in the Meadows and Rain Scent and found it to be quite easy to use and I loved that I didn’t have to use batteries or my electricity. The scent is strong enough that you know it is there, but definitely not too overpowering. It is a soothing smell which are of my favorite types of scents. So, to set up you insert the cartridge into the unit and it will activate automatically. You then pull the bottom downward till you hear a click and then you are ready to display and enjoy the light, fresh scent. I can’t wait to try all of the different scents that they will have available. The price is also not that bad and you can get a real deal when used with a coupon.

There’s a new way to keep your home Febreze fresh. It’s Febreze Set & Refresh. This new air freshener eliminates odors while releasing a fresh scent. Set & Refresh lasts noticeably longer than cones because it slowly releases scented oils for 30 days. Also, the cleanly-designed Set & Refresh looks attractive for the entire time it freshens your home.

Try Febreze Set & Refresh in your home for longer lasting freshness.

Here is a fast, yummy recipe from Sandra Lee’s Semi-Homemade Tips:

Cinnamon Kettle Corn

Servings: 4

Prep Time: 15 minutes

2 packages (3 ounces each) microwave popcorn

4 tablespoons butter

3 tablespoons water

¾ cup sugar

1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

1. Prepare popcorn according to package directions. Pour popcorn

Into one or two large bowls (allow plenty of room in bowls to

Toss popcorn with hot sugar mixture).

2. In small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add water and

Sugar. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in Cinnamon.

3. Remove mixture from heat (be careful; mixture will be very hot).

Pour half the mixture over the popcorn. Carefully toss with wooden

Spoons. Add remaining sugar mixture and combine.

Buy It: Febreze Set and Refresh should be available at retailers nationwide and the suggested price is $2.99.

Win It: Febreze is being very gracious in providing Three Lucky Coupon Clippin’ Texan Readers – a Febreze Set and Refresh Air Freshener of your very own to have and try out.

Gorton’s Seafood Product Review + Giveaway ~ 5 Winners

July 30, 2010 by Gigi at 2:24 pm

Founded in 1849, Gorton’s is one of America’s oldest continuously operating companies. Headquartered in Gloucester, Massachusetts, Gorton’s continues to be the innovative leader in the seafood industry. Gorton’s full line of frozen seafood products includes Breaded and Battered Fish Sticks and Fillets, Flavored Fillets, Tenders, Shrimp Bowls, Popcorn Shrimp, Grilled Fillets, including Tilapia and Salmon, Premium Fillets, Sauced Shrimp and Grilled Shrimp.

Among consumers the Gorton’s Fisherman, in his yellow slicker and rain hat, has become an icon symbolizing this commitment.

Our Thoughts:

Tonight we had Gorton’s Crunchy Breaded Fish Fillets and the vote was unanimous ~ we all loved it! We made sandwiches with buns and used tarter sauce and added lettuce and tomatoes to top it off. On the side we had macaroni. Both my dear hubby and our son enjoyed them. I personally loved how easy they are to make and that they come in a NEW resealable bags. Their Commitment to the Environment is another plus for me. Gorton’s will now be a staple in our freezer. They have so many varieties to choose from, we can’t wait to try them all!

We feature recipes using delicious and convenient Gorton’s Seafood – like our delicious healthy, lowfat All-Natural Grilled Fillets – as an ingredient, at our website…stop by for healthy dinner ideas galore! Click Here for Gorton’s Recipes.

I know from personal experience that it can be a bit difficult to get your kids to eat fish, boy do i know. Gorton’s offers some helpful tips for getting even the most finicky kids to eat seafood.

~Get Them Involved

Letting kids help in the kitchen gets them excited about the meal.

~Introduce Seafood Early
Start with Gorton’s Fish Sticks, which have a crunchy texture, mild flavor, and are perfectly sized for small hands. Gradually add other varieties like Gorton’s Popcorn Shrimp, also perfect for small hands and dipping.~Get Creative with dips and Sauces
Try applesauce, BBQ sauce, or ketchup. To make a sweeter sauce, mix in some honey. (I know as a kid my parents did this. My Dad made a “cocktail sauce” using Ketchup, Miracle Whip and Sweet Relish all mixed together, and this worked).

Gorton’s now offers All Natural Grilled Fillets
Finally, all natural flame-grilled seafood that is delicious and easy to prepare! On their own or in your favorite recipe, Gorton’s All Natural Grilled Fillets add sizzle to every meal. Flavorful and delicious, they’re also great for you and can be easily prepared in the oven or in the microwave.

WNBA ~ San Antonio Silver Stars vs Minnesota Lynx @ The AT&T Center ~ Review

July 30, 2010 by Gigi at 11:30 am

Our family and friends were so excited when I told them we would be attending the San Antonio Silver Stars WNBA Basket Ball game on June 26th versus the Minnesota Lynx. Everyone of us but my husband had not been to a game before, so this was to be a momentous night. This particular night we went even had a theme that was “Hoops and Hounds Night” which featured fans bringing their dogs to the arena. This was in honor of The Animal Defense Leagues and other sponsors and how important their organizations are to our communities. (Adopt A Pet!) It was also a Dollar concession night with $1.00 Soft Drinks, Draft Beer; and Hot Dogs – we love a BARGAIN!

We had no idea what we were in for and it turned out to be a night of hootin’ and hollerin’, games and pure Fun! I honestly have no idea why we had never gone before, We were missing out on so much. Even our 7 year old got into it and was shoutin’ D-Force (lol), I didn’t have the heart to tell him it was Defense it was just too cute. The women of both teams honestly played their hearts out, but ultimately (Our Girls) the San Antonio Silver Stars WON! The final score was 80 to 66. You Go Girls!

The WNBA is truly the ultimate addition to any family’s live entertainment activities offering competition, team spirit and positive role models packaged in one of America’s favorite sport pastimes. It’s a great way to beat the summer heat and head indoors for sports, entertainment, family, food and fun (all at a Discount)!

Good Earth Mediterranean Chicken Review + Giveaway ~ MyBlogSpark

July 7, 2010 by Gigi at 5:58 pm

MyBlogSpark sent me a Mediterranean Chicken with angel hair pasta Good Earth dinner kit to try before it first hit store shelves in June. I was a skeptic considering we don’t usually make our main entree out of a box. First I was happy to read that this meal would only take 20 minutes from start to finish to complete. Everything you needed was included in the box minus the chicken. I cut the chicken in chunks and followed the directions on the box and had a full meal in 20 minutes. I also made garlic bread with the meal. The aroma in the kitchen was great and to my surprise this is the best boxed meal I have ever eaten and an added bonus is that it is healthy (no junk added). Even my DH and my step-son loved it. The combined seasonings and flavors were so amazing and I am now hooked. This will become a staple in our house and I can’t wait to try all of the other four meals available.

When dinner means tons of pots and pans and mixing or chopping for hours, sometimes dining out seems tempting. Now with new Good Earth dry dinner kits, you can have restaurant taste without the restaurant wait and still have a wholesome dinner.

With appetizing entrées from Good Earth, dining in is sure to become the new dining out. Enjoy cooking a sophisticated, restaurant-quality meal in the comfort of your own home.

Delicious dinners that allow you to keep a healthy lifestyle without sacrificing taste, Good Earth dry dinner kits are perfect for whipping up a no-fail, five-star cuisine in less than 30 minutes.

100% whole grain, no trans fat, no artificial flavors, no artificial preservatives, no MSG – just add meat and, voila! Dinner is served.
