Pop It! Top It! Review and GIVEAWAY!

Oh yeah! I was selected to receive these amazing new popcorn treats in order to taste test, review and host a giveaway. Lucky me! Snickerdoodle flavored popcorn? How could I possibly turn that down?

Pop It! Top It! is a delicious new product by Maggie & Mary's of North Aire Market, Inc. I decided to use my samples at a Halloween party I had for my kids, nieces and nephews just last Sunday. It was a hit. My guests could not keep their hands out of the bowl. Everyone was asking me what it was and how I made it, some with mouthfuls of popcorn. Ha! My sister-in-law even said it was, "The best popcorn ever." I think she's right.

What a great idea. Everything you need comes right in the bag. It is so easy to make and is definitely something that kids could help you do. All you really need is a microwave, bowl and spoon. You'll have a tasty treat in about eight minutes.

Maggie & Mary also said that it would be good if you added in other ingredients, like pretzels, candies, peanuts or anything else that sounds yummy. I will try this next time but I wanted to have it "as is" for the review.

Where can you find this fun new popcorn? Visit http://www.northairemarket.com to buy some for yourself. They are based in Shakopee, MN and would love local support, I'm sure. With the holidays right around the corner, I think that these would make great gifts, stocking stuffers or potluck offerings. I hope you get a chance to give this popcorn a try. I can't wait to see what fun new flavors they come up with next.

And now for the giveaway! One of my lucky readers will be chosen to receive their own order of Pop It! Top It! Snickerdoodle Popcorn AND a fun popcorn bucket that automatically filters out unpopped kernels. Bonus! Use the easy peasy Rafflecopter entry widget below. Contest starts at midnight and ends in one week. Good luck!

The Juppy: Review & GIVEAWAY!

I am extremely excited to be doing my first ever product giveaway. An opportunity presented itself for me to review this amazing new product and I knew it would be perfect for me. As most of you know, I have nine month old twin boys. They are very busy babies; crawling, rolling, climbing, walking around all of the furniture and so on. At nine months old, they still have no fear of danger and not enough coordination to fulfill their daring attempts at walking. I have been a little on edge. Lucky for us, I found The Juppy!



The one I have is a Blue Juppy Baby Walker Momentum. This is a baby walker that helps little ones learn better balance while practicing walking upright. It is to be used with a parent, so rather than bending down and holding on to their little slippery fingers while doing a number on your lower back...you can stand upright and walk them around the room or yard or anywhere you want to go!



See that?! It folds up to fit in a little pouch. I can throw it in my purse or the diaper bag and take it anywhere. It even fits in my husband's cargo shorts pocket. No other walker on the market can do that! And as for my back? This walker is great. After my pregnancy with the twins and having their weight in my belly, putting all of that extra stress on my lower back and the epidural tenderness I actually still experience, this walker really helps me a great deal. I have no discomfort when I am walking them around. The Juppy walker was also very convenient to send along to the grandparents house when they babysat the kiddos. Much easier to transport and utilize.

I am very confident in this product and it's durability. The stitching and materials are solid. The Velcro reinforcements on the back side are a great touch. It is very easy to put on and take off of my wiggly baby boys. There are soft hand grips for the adult to hold on to and they are quite soft and comfortable.



The babies seem to love it. They really do not know what they are doing just yet. It is new and fun and interesting to them. They like to hold onto the straps, try to bite them, hang their heads back and smile up at me and then play jelly legs. They are enjoying it very much though. If I gently nudge their heels with my feet to help them step left, right, left, right, in turn, they are starting to catch on. They smile big the whole time. It is not going to work magic and make them walk overnight, but it is super safe, nice and sturdy and a whole lot of fun and bonding for me and my baby boys. I am now a fan of The Juppy!



Now, for the GIVEAWAY! Enter below daily for your chance to win an amazing new Blue Juppy Baby Walker Momentum. The giveaway starts at midnight tonight and will run for three weeks. I will announce and notify the one winner on July 27th, 2013. Good luck and see below for a listing of all the places you can check out and purchase a World Famous Juppy Baby Walker today!
