Back to My Childhood with Country Time Lemonade
A little history from Country Time Lemonade:

1977 — Country Time introduces a new flavor – pink lemonade.
1989 to 1996 — Country Time sponsors a NASCAR car.
1990 — Country Time powdered iced tea mix appears in Canada for the first time.
1994 — The canister for Country Time drink mix gets revitalized! The new recyclable plastic container is easier to hold.
1996 — Country Time brings together the taste of ripe country berries and good old-fashioned lemonade in its new flavors: Raspberry Lemonade and Strawberry Lemonade.
1998 — Country Time adds a new flavor to the mix! Lemonade Iced Tea drink mix is introduced, combining good old-fashioned lemonade and iced tea. Grandpa would be proud!

2007 — Country Time Lite Lemonade and Lite Pink Lemonade are first introduced, with ½ the sugar of regular Country Time and only 35 calories per serving. A lite way to enjoy your favorite summer drink!
Our Thoughts
Almost empty again!
I will never forget summers as a kid and the best drink was Country Time Lemonade. My best friend and I would mix a couple of big pitchers and set up shop on the corner. Our goal to sell as much Lemonade as we could. Over the course of a week would usually raise enough money to order a pizza. That was the big treat for us.
I’m so happy to be able to share these kind of ideas with my kids. The only problem? I can’t keep enough of the lemonade in the pitcher to actually hold a lemonade sale. I’m happy to say that the kids are turning to the Country Time Lemonade over the juice boxes which really saves on my wallet.
The best part is that Country Time Lemonade has teamed up with Alex’s Lemonade stand to help raise money for pediatric cancer research. Hop over there and see what greatness is evolving!

Our Thoughts
With summer break starting this week my parents wanted to do something special this weekend for the kids, as well as for me. So they were the super grandparents once again and took both of the kids over night Friday night. The kids got to sleep outside in the tent and they loved it. I sent along the NiteGuide 210 LED flashlight for them to use. Steve grabbed the kids sleeping bags and loaded up the car. I got a call about 9 that night. It seems the flashlight was so bright my parents (who were inside the house) couldn’t sleep. I had tried to warn them that the LED light puts off enough light to actually light the whole house. My dad joked that he was worried the boys were going to contact spaceships or message the planes overhead. With the great light output I know that this is the flashlight that will be accompanying me on the 3 day walk.
Pros
- Ultra bright LED
- The run time of 13 hours means more than enough time to light the evening if you are going on an extended camping trip.

Tupperware ~~CLOSED~~
Posted by: | CommentsCONGRATULATIONS TO JAIME!
Tupperware has been coming into homes for over 60 years now. As one of the most trusted names in housewares, Tupperware is ever-changing and evolving. They have produced new products that help with storage of our food to keep it safe and keep us healthy.
Tupperware sent me a set of their FlatOut 4-Cup Containers. These bowls compact down to store flat and expand to store food. We have used ours to store soup with no leaks and even our snowcream in the freezer with no freezer burn. Ordering a set of the FlatOut 4-Cup Containers is simple and secure and will cost you $17.99 for 2 bowls. Their great for cleaning out that bowl cabinet that is overwhelming and overflowing with bowls and lids. The lids fit securely on the collapsed bowls and take up minimal space. One finger breadth:
I was also able to try out the Stuffables Super Set. This set comes with three bowls, 4-cup, 6-cup and 8 cup bowls. The expandable seals allow for bulky or odd shaped foods to take up the least amount of space possible. We made a pot roast for dinner the other night. After everyone ate we had a decent amount of meat left that hadn’t be sliced. It was easy to use the 8-cup bowl to put the pot roast on end and the seal expanded over the meat to make the least about of space as possible.You can see the ridges in the seal that expand the seal to fit over food but remain air tight unlike foil or saran wrap. The Stuffables Super Set is $45.50.
BUY IT: You can purchase any of the Tupperware products online or you can find a consultant near you to have an in-home party.
WIN IT: Tupperware also sent me a Quick Shake Container. Since I already own one I am passing it on to one lucky reader.
Here are the rules:
*Visit Tupperware and let me know which one product you would like to see in your home.

Automoblox ~~CLOSED~~
Posted by: | Comments~~WINNER: #5 Laura Deluca~~
Charlie and Rachael both love cars. Anything with four wheels is a hit in our house. The only other toy that ranks right up there is blocks. Luckily Automoblox has come along to combine both blocks and cars to make my kids truly happy.
These innovative cars have connectors, wheels that come apart, passengers that help teach shapes and can be combined to make truly interesting combinations. To know that the girls are in no way left out, Automoblox has designed a car that comes in pink as well as other cars in all different colors, green, orange, purple and blue. Not into the sedan? They have pick up trucks, minivans and more.
I was really impressed with the quality of the vehicles. Charlie received the C9 Sedan and Rachael received the C9p Sportscar. Charlie was quickly able to figure out how to make some changes with the connectors and turned their two sedans into one long limo. The passengers fit snugly into the seats of the vehicles by shape. Squares, circles, stars are used to help sort the passengers into their correct positions but it was a great way to also reinforce the shapes we were learning that week.
BUY IT: Automoblox can be purchased at select retailers including Toys R Us and online.
WIN IT: Automoblox is offering one reader a vehicle.
Here are the rules:
* Visit Automoblox and let me know which vehicle is your favorite.

Casio Men’s Wave Ceptor Watch ~~CLOSED~~
Posted by: | Comments
Since the time we met Steve has worn the same watch. A beautiful solar powered Casio watch. It was his one purchase for himself that he splurged on before we met. It has held up beautifully over the years. I think its time for a little something new though. Something that is a little more updated with new technology.
I’m falling for the Casio Men’s Wave Ceptor Watches. They have an LCD at the 4 o’clock position that displays the date, mode, stopwatch and digital time. Then there is the auto LED light and the Neo-brite hands that make it easy for reading in the dimmer light.
I also love that the watches are water resistant. With two small kids, we are always washing something, dishes, clothes or a hieney. So having a watch that we don’t have to take off every 5 seconds is a plus.this
Do you know someone that would like to open this Casio Men’s Wave Ceptor Watch this holiday season?
Well have no fears. The people of Casio would like to offer a Casio Men’s Wave Ceptor Watch to one of my readers.
Here are the rules:
*Visit Casio Men’s Wave Ceptor Watch site and let me know what feature you like the most.

We are constantly looking for a new healthier treat in our house. Charlie was turned on to cake and that seems to be the only thing he cares to eat anymore. However I have been able to get something new into the routine: Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters. Rachael can’t have them because of the nuts but Charlie and I love them.
We were sent a package from My Blog Spark that included a sample of the Roasted Cashew, nut lovers, roasted almond and peanut flavors. Charlie and I had the peanut flavor gone within the week. Steve loved the cashew clusters.
Nature Valley and My Blog Spark are offering a prize pack as pictured above to one reader.

Carolina Pad ~~CLOSED~~
Posted by: | Comments
Looking for the newest supplies for school? Something that is modern, fresh and a little funky? Then look no farther then Carolina Pad. All of their collections include colors that are perfect for any student. I’m currently using a binder from the Hot Chocolate collection for my school work. It’s the brown with big colorful dots. I love it. It has tons of space for files. The expanding file folder I received has come in handy for marking up food labels for Rachaels allergies. It’s a quick place to look for safe foods, ones that have been trialed with no reaction and ones trialed with no reaction.
For the teen student there is the new Chit Chat collection. Each product is covered with “Texting” language: OMG, LOL, XOXO and more. I’m sure any teen would be a little happier working on their school work if it includes some great looking graphics.
There is a special collection named for Carolina Pad’s signature designer Jacqueline Savage McFee’s niece, Kendall. Kendall is fighting Leukemia. Leukemia kills more children 20 and under then other type of cancer. Because of a partnership between Jackie, Carolina Pad, and The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Kendall Kollection products are now at stores across the U.S. A portion of each sale goes to support LLS’s blood cancer research and patient education and support services. While Kendall’s fight is not over she is doing well and fighting each day.
Carolina Pad is offering one reader their very own Kendall Kollection.
Here are the rules:
*Visit Carolina Pad and let me know what you like best and which collection it is from.
