Mayesa all natural chocolate drinks make indulging your chocolate craving a little bit healthier.   Their drinks are made with all natural premium cacao.  Cacao contains a higher amount of anti-oxidants by weight than acai berries, red wine, pomegranites, blueberries and goji berries.

Mayesa chocolate drinks are a blend of hemp protein, rice, and spices.  They are a source of calcium, fiber, potassium, vitamin D, and the anti-oxidants mentioned above.  Hemp proteins are a vegetarian source of Omega 6 and Omega 3.  The Cocoa Mint flavor is vegan.   Mayesa chocolate drinks are dairy free, soy free, and the mint flavor is gluten free.

I received one of both flavors.  I gave my toddler the cacao original and I went for the the Cacao Mint.  I took a sip or two from my son’s so I could try both flavors.  They were both smooth and tasty.  The texture and flavor was similar to chocolate soy milk I have tried in the past.  Just a reminder though that these drinks are soy free.  My toddler seemed to enjoy his.

When I was growing up our tree never had a “theme” per say.  I know people that have beautiful uniform color trees up for the holiday.  Or maybe they’re tree followed a snowflake theme or something along those lines.  Our tree had engraved ornaments we got from school, handmade ornaments, and free ornaments we gathered along the way.  For a while our parents would buy each of us kids a ornament that represented them at the time.  For instance, once Christmas I really wanted a 10 speed bike.  It was top of my list and I didn’t care if I got anything else.  My parents chose a 10 speed bike ornament for me.  I still have it and put it on my tree now.

Even though our tree doesn’t look very uniform or designed, it has a lot of meaning.  It’s so much fun to look at the ornaments that have pictures of my kids as babies, little handmade ornaments my boys made in school, or ornaments signifying the birth of my children, mine and hubby’s first Christmas and so on.

Add some depth to your holiday with personalized 3D ornaments  These will certainly be fun to look at in the years to come.  Imagine pulling out your ornaments to hang them on a tree and saying “oh look here’s a family pic from 5 years ago” or whatever may come to mind.

There are so many designs to choose from.  So whether your have a hodge podge of memories on your tree like I do or you like to stick to a certain color or theme, you can find a design that fits.  These would also make great gifts for grandparents!

Tips: If you’ve never used Rafflecopter before, it’s an easy way to enter giveaway’s. Keep in mind that Rafflecopter is run using Javascript so you must enable javascript on your computer to use. If you are having trouble, try a different browser or make sure you have updated your computer and browser.  If you notice that an entry you already completed now says that you did not, unless it’s the mandatory entry don’t worry about it.  Rafflecopter is run on your browser cache; when your browser cache clears so does the saved completed entries in the rafflecopter widget only.  This does not mean your entries were not recorded; they were recorded into the giveaway database.  If you want to keep track, write where you left off or completed down for referrence later or if you aren’t sure, redo the entry altogether.  If there are duplicates, we will delete them prior to selecting the winning entry.  Some blogs provided direct links to their GFC however some did not.  Please note that the GFC (Google Friend Connect) widget doesn’t always work properly, at no fault to the blog; if you cannot follow this way, please it write down to return later for that extra entry.  The more ways you enter, the more chances you have of winning.
