MY TAKE:
I happened to win a giveaway a while back, and Maria sent my prize rather quickly.
When I opened the package, I found this beautiful flower and these two hair bows.
All three pieces were very well made and withstand continuous wear.
The hair bows are really pretty, and the bling in the middle is a great accent!
My necklace receives many comments when I wear it, and I love to show it off!
I do recommend Agape Love Boutique as a shop to buy a treat for yourself, 
or to send something sweet to a friend or family member!

MI-DEL All Natural Cookie- Review and Giveaway!

July 29, 2011 by 10 Comments
As a Mother, I love being able to let my children have a snack during the day.
Obviously, they like anything sweet. Including cookies!
Since we have been trying of offer our little ones better snacks along with fruit and water.
That’s where MI-DEL Cookies comes in…
MI-DEL Cookies were invented by Mr. Samuel Midel in the 1940′s.
He wanted his two daughters Frieda and Evelyn to have a healthy way to satisfy their cravings,
and so he thought everyone else would like the same. 
MI-DEL Cookies use only natural ingredients, leaving out artificial everything.
Not only are some MI-DEL cookies dairy-free, they offer a gluten-free selection as well. 
From Chocolate Chip Cookies to Cinnamon Snaps, their Gluten-Free selections aim to please.
MI-DEL cookies offer a bite-sized selection
If you are on the go, you can find a selection of single-serve cookies



{Review}
Recently we were able to try the MI-DEL Ginger Snaps shown above.
I was able to search their website for where to buy MI-DEL cookies.
It just-so-happened to be my local Wal-Mart.
They only carry two choices, the Ginger Snaps included.
My packages also had a free milk coupon attached to it…
Our little ones really like the Ginger Snaps. Instead of asking for “More!”
 They are perfectly content with only three little Ginger Snaps. Two help curb my sweet tooth,
 and I love the “bite” and full flavor the cookies have.
B really likes them, and knowing how much out little ones enjoyed them,
 he packs them when we go to town. They don’t crumble and aren’t messy.
With water, they make a good on-the-go snack while the Texas heat is getting the best of us.
I would recommend MI-DEL Cookies for children and adults, alike!

My Winning Ways… Part 3 of 3!

March 17, 2011 by 2 Comments
This is the last part of my mini-series.
 Click here for Part 1, and click here for Part 2.

To continue with my “Winning” ways…

     I make absolutely NO money blogging. Not without trying. I’m part of CSN’s Share-a-Sale, Amazon Affiliates and even Eversave. It’s just that there have been no “hook-line-and-sinkers.” So, entering giveaways allows access to items my family can’t necessarily budget for at this time. We live on one income and I can’t wait to start financially contributing more in the future. I would love to support all the awesome ETSY shops and and all the other shops and companies I see floating around in blog land. But when those items are offered in giveaways I try my best to support the host, and the sponsor by entering, hearting shops, visiting and browsing and saving “mental notes” for when we are financially suited to buy those items. I also love LOW Entry giveaways! I try my best to check Tight Wad in Utah and Oh So Savvy Mom with their daily Low Entry lists! There are many others, but I only have 24 hours in a day, remember?

     Some items I have won include… (but not limited to)
Rmemeber, all together I have won more than $600 worth of items and the 
amount keeps growing!

$75 GC to Sears Homestores or Sears.com from Frugal Invitation
We paired this with Shipvantage (I will post about that later) Sales, and Coupon Codes.
We were able to get a $100 dollar tool set for only $11.89.
$30 Scrapbooking Kit from Simplicity Handmade Paper Goods

$25 GC to Resturants.com from Cuckoo for Coupon Deals
(which we need to find a place for us to enjoy together.)

$25 CSN GC which I used to buy this!
I only paid $9.48 after shipping! 
This pan was a $38 pan!

So, What I’m trying to say is…
“You can’t win if you don’t enter!”
So, do you enter giveaways?
Do you win?
If so, what have you won?
I’d love to know!
Do you enter Captcha enabled Giveaways?
Let me hear from you, leave a comment.
They make my day :D
