Send Out Cards Review and #Giveaway 12/16 US–CLOSED

 RANDOM.ORG DREW NUMBER 13 MANTHAS24.  WINNER HAS BEEN SENT AN EMAIL NOTIFICATION AND HAS 48 HRS TO REPLY.

Tracey Szurley, an Independent Distributor for Send Out Cards had got in contact with me about Send Out Cards great service they provide. I had never heard of Send Out Cards until she contacted me. I went to the website directly to see what Send Out Cards was all about. My first thought was that it was another e-greeting site.  Had I run off that idea, I would have been very wrong.

Send Out Cards offers a convenient and affordable way to sent out real greeting cards.  They even offer gifts if you’d like to send a gift too.   Send Out Cards offers cards for any occasion including Holiday cards.  Just think how easy it would be to type what you want in the card, choose your font, even add pictures of your family to the card.  No trips to the post office, No worrying about running out of stamps, no running to the store to get a card.  Send Out Cards sends the card for you.  Add gifts to you cards if you like with items like brownies, bath sets and more there is lots to choose from at a reasonable price.

Tracey is donating 50 cents from each card sold from now until Dec. 25 to charity.  Also, if you are looking start your own home business with Send Out Cards, Tracey can help you with that too. 

I had the opportunity to send out a card to try the service.  It was so easy to choose a card, type in whatever I wanted to say, and send it.  I sent it to my husband as a nice little surprise love not.  The card is a quality greeting cards.  The printing turned out nice.  My husband got the mail before I got home from work.  He gave me a big hug and kiss and thanked me for the card.  I think sometimes we under estimate the impact of just sending out a card to someone for no reason at all even.  I will definitely be using Send Out Cards again in the future. This is going to be such a time saver for my holiday greeting cards this year.

You can set up an account by choosing al a carte options or by buying a package to load your account.  You can check out Tracey’s “Card R’Easy” page too for even more info.

The Cutest Cooking Utensils: Head Chefs review and Giveaway! –CLOSED

 RANDOM.ORG DREW NUMBER 44 TORI. WINNER HAS BEEN EMAILED AND HAS 48 HRS TO REPLY TO WINNING EMAIL.  
THANKS FOR READING AND ENTERING EVERYONE!

My 6 and 8 year old boys love to help me. Whether it’s helping with mopping, helping with their baby brother, or helping with cooking, they want to have a part in it.

I have the opportunity to try Head Chefs kids’ cooking utensils.  They have to be THE cutest cooking utensils i have ever seen in my life.  I have a picture below:

What kind of looks like a claymation scene on my counter top is actually fully functional kids cooking utensils from Head Chefs.  The little arms and legs on the utensils are posable.  The feet are suction cups so you can actually stand them up and they’ll stay.  They are made of a high quality silicone.  They are soft and easy to grip for your little chef. 

My 6 year old could not wait to try them out.  So we found a recipe that interested him and got started.

The cute little fushia colored Head Chef tool is a measuring spoon.  It measure 1 Tablespoon on one side and 1 teaspoon on the other side of…what I’d guess you’d call it’s head..lol. Oh and by the way my son told me the measuring spoon was fuscia so that’s what I’m going with.

The purple spoon was great for him to hold on to.  He was so proud to be cooking.  Yes folks he is in his pajamas.  I told him if he got his shower and got his pajamas on he could help me cook 🙂

He used the Yellow spatula to scrape the mix into the bowl to set. 

When our Chocolate Coconut Creme Bar was finally set.  He used his little red knife to help cut the pieces.

And finally he helped serve up the finished product in the cute little bowl with legs from Head Chefs.

I think I enjoyed watching him have fun with these tools the most.  Head Chefs cool tools would be great for your little budding chef.  They are quality tools that are easy to handle and keep kids interested in the task at hand.  The silicone is soft and easy to grip but the utensils are durable.

I’d like to see quicker response times on the customer service end but the products are fantastic.

Sponsor Spotlight: CSN Stores

I’ve had the pleasure of working with CSN Stores a couple of times. I can’t say enough about their customer service.  The products I have received from CSN Stores have been good quality items. 

CSN Stores has over 200 stores to choose from.  Just about anything you need in one place.  So, lets say your looking for Children’s Backpacks to pack your little ones things in for your holiday visits.  You can find that on CSN Stores.  Like this cute little rolling backpack.

Rolling Turtle Backpack on CSN Stores

And while you’re there you think, “hmm i really need a new hand mixer since I wore my old one out making Christmas cookies.  You can get that while you’re there.  Then you realize “oh geez, I almost forgot to get Aunt Gertie a gift” so you get that while you’re there too.  It could really go on and on but you get the idea. 

CSN Stores is offering a $40 gift code to one of my winners in the Holiday Gift Giveaway Hop Happening here. Right now!
