Talenti Gelato Giveaway and Review

"We are committed to the 500-year-old tradition of handcrafting gelato e sorbetto with unparalleled artisanship. We make everything from scratch using the finest ingredients imported from around the world. With these ingredients we add our innovative spirit and passion in order to offer our customers a myriad of flavors from which to choose. The end result is an amazingly tasty treat, intended to be enjoyed as one of life's greatest "simple pleasures."


Talenti Gelato recently released its newest, indulgent artisanal gelato flavor, Sea Salt Caramel.
As with all Talenti products, great care was placed in sourcing the best ingredients for this new flavor. The Sea Salt Caramel gelato features rich, golden Argentine caramel (dulce de leche) made exclusively for Talenti, complemented by the finest Fleur De Sel—the prized seasalt from France—and tiny chocolate-covered sea salt caramel truffles mixed in with every spoonful.

And like all Talenti gelatos e sorbettos, Sea Salt Caramel is artisanally made using fresh hormone-free milk and pure cane sugar, no high-fructose corn syrup.
Talenti makes a lot of different flavors so head over to find your favorite.


Well sadly, my store did not have the Sea Salt Caramel flavor to try, but they had a few others. We chose the Sicilian Pistachio. These come in a pint size container and gave the four of us a nice scoop to have (heehee yes we ate it while Mr. was still at work). This was delicious, we all loved it, and I loved all the pistachios in it, they do not skimp on those.
You can follow along with Talenti on Twitter and Facebook.


More please?

THREE "Mommy? I'm Hungry!" fans will win 1 coupon for a pint of Talenti Gelato.

Big G Cereals Giveaway and MyBlogSpark Review


Between finding that missing sock and making sure the dog didn´t eat last night´s homework assignment, it can be tough to sit down for breakfast with the family. But did you know that breakfast eaters tend to have better nutrient intakes 1, and kids who eat breakfast tend to perform better in school? 2 This back-to-school season, enjoy the most important meal of the day while finding great savings on your favorite breakfasts with a little help from Big G cereals.

In your grocer´s cereal aisle, keep an eye out for specially marked boxes of Cheerios®, Chocolate Cheerios®, Cookie Crisp®, Golden Grahams®, MultiGrain Cheerios®, and Total®
Use the coupons printed inside the box to save up to $5 when purchasing select products from brands including Betty Crocker®, Nature Valley®, Pillsbury®, Big G, and Maxwell House.

Start the day off right with Big G cereals, and keep your stomach - and your wallet - full. To learn more about the cereal benefits of breakfast, visit CerealBenefits.com today.


We were sent 6 boxes of Big G cereals, all of which we do buy. OK maybe not the cookie crisp as often, so my little boy was excited to see that one. That was my fave cereal as a kid, I remember. But I too didn't get that one often. The chocolate cheerios are a nice late night treat if you like chocolate. The multi grain cheerios I like to mix in some yogurt for a little crunch. The total cereal, my son surprisingly asked for every morning, funny boy. We love cereal as breakfast and late night snack.




My giveaway winner´s prize pack will contain:
-Cheerios®
-Chocolate Cheerios®
-Cookie Crisp®
-Golden Grahams®
-MultiGrain Cheerios®
-Total®






ONE Mommy? I'm Hungry! fan will win a Big G Cereal Prize Pack.

Gold Medal White Whole Wheat Flour MyBlogSpark Giveaway


With Americans looking for ways to add more whole grain to their diets, it´s the simple choices that can make a difference, like making the effortless switch to new Gold Medal® White Whole Wheat flour. Available in grocery stores now, Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour can help you bake it great with the goodness of whole grains!
Unlike most whole wheat flours that are made from hard red spring wheat, Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour is made with hard white spring wheat. So, it´s whole grain, but with a similar taste and texture to all-purpose white flour.

Perfect for family favorite recipes like breads, pizza dough, cookies, muffins and brownies, Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour bakes up golden and has a milder flavor than baked goods made with regular whole wheat flour.

Start by simply substituting whole wheat white flour for 25 to 50 percent of the recipe´s flour content.
You may wish to add an extra tablespoon or two of the liquid used in the recipe when substituting Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour or decrease the amount of flour by one to two tablespoon for recipes that call for all-purpose flour.

From breakfast to dessert and everything in between, find classic recipes that use Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour at http://www.bettycrocker.com/ and make adding whole grain to your daily routine even easier, without sacrificing on flavor.



They provided me with this same gift pack, but I have yet to find this Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour

in my store. The recipe cards sure look good and I plan to make the Gingerbread Cupcakes later this fall.

Included in the gift pack is:
-A VIP coupon for a sample of Gold Medal White Whole Wheat flour
-Instructions for conversion
-Cookie Jar
-Recipe Cards

Beanie Designs Handmade Knitted Baby Hats Giveaway and Review



Beanie Designs specialize in bringing smiles with an exclusive collection that ranges from crocheted, hand knitted infant hats and baby headbands to flower clips, baby mittens and booties using 100% Cotton and Organic cotton. They started out as a crocheting family and grew into a great company. Just visit their site and you'll be in awe of all the different styles to choose from, anything from your baby to older child.

Organic Cotton Cupcake Hat sizes 0-3 mo - 3-10 yr
-stock photo-
These were a couple of my fave. Aren't the newborn hats so adorable? A cupcake hat! *squeal* I love this thick big cable knit (below), they're perfect Baby Winter Hats.

Organic cotton Brown Two poms Hat sizes 0-3 mo - 3-10 yr
-stock photo-




I chose the Stripes of Navy, Olive, and Brown Visor to review. It comes in sizes 0-3 months all the way to 5T-preteen and up. I got the 5 size for my 4 1/2 yr old and it fits him nice and snug, but then again he's got a big little head for his age. I don't know how this would fit an older boy, so I say 5T is the biggest size, but here's the size chart to be sure. The quality of this is so great. The yarn is nice and thick, it's knitted nice and tight, it's sturdy and not floppy. I just love the colors in this too.

A visor hat just for rambunctious little boys. Hand crocheted in organic cotton, it adds the perfect vintage touch to his wardrobe. Warm yet breathable for year round wear, this visor cap will also go with just about everything thanks to its understated stripes in classic boy colors.


•Soft cream visor hat with stripes of navy, olive and brown.
•Made of extra soft 100% organic cotton yarns.
•Hand knitted using proprietary Beanie Designs techniques for impeccable, heirloom-quality style detail and comfort for your baby boy.
•Offers warmth with superior breathability for year round wear.
•Machine washable.


We know it can be tough to find really cute boys clothes, but this visor hat is guaranteed to liven up even the most basic of his outfits. It's got a classic look that speaks to a bygone era, perfect for photo shoots with a vintage vibe. And thanks to the quality construction and comfortable organic cotton, this boy's visor cap will keep him cute and cozy all year long. With our penchant for designs that feel as good as they look, this Beanie Designs hat might possibly become his favorite piece of clothing. And of course you'll appreciate knowing a Beanie Designs hat can last for generations as a special hand-me-down children's heirloom or a keepsake of his infant years.
