Dale and Thomas Mother's Day Popcorn #Giveaway ends5/12

Dale and Thomas Mother's Day Popcorn Giveaway

Mommy and Baby Reviews and Giveaways and Dale and Thomas Popcorn is bringing our readers the chance to win the Perfect Mother's Day Giveaway! One winner will win Dale and Thomas' Mother's Day Gift Box!!!
Mother's Day Gift Box Contents
Dale and Thomas' Gift Boxes have four footlong bags of gourmet popcorn.
Each bag serves 2-4 people. All of our popcorn is gluten free and kosher OU-D.
Mother's Day Gift Box - $24.95
- Peanut Butter & White Chocolate DrizzleCorn
- Chocolate Chunk N'Caramel
- Hall of Fame Kettle Corn
- White Cheddar & Black Peppercorn
The quintessential version of the all-American classic: Dale and Thomas' finest, fresh-popped corn sprinkled with sea salt and kissed with a touch of pure cane sugar. A sweet-salty combination you can't resist. This is my favorite Kettle Corn of all time. It has the perfect amount of salt and sugar!
White Cheddar and Black Peppercorn is one of Dale and Thomas' most addictive flavors, light, fluffy and crunchy kettle-popped corn is covered with Land O' Lakes creamy, aged white cheddar cheese, fresh cracked peppercorns and clarified butter.
Dale and Thomas' Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Drizzle Corn is sweet-and-salty, creamy and crunchy delight. The combination of peanut butter and white chocolate is like hitting the jackpot! Dale and Thomas start with their plumpest, fluffiest, crunchiest just-popped corn and top it with creamy peanut butter. Not too much — just enough to get the best of the flavor, without being overpowering. Then they hand-finish it with a drizzle of rich white chocolate!
A rich and sensuous combination of Dale and Thomas' finest, fresh-popped corn topped with buttery caramel and studded with chunks of deep, chocolaty indulgence. The caramel adds overall sweetness and crunch, while the chunks of chocolate, well everyone loves chocolate. This is still one of my favorite flavor combinations.

A Huge Thank You to our Mother's Day Giveaway Hosts

Enter for your Chance to win starting May 1st until May 12, 2012!
Winner must be from the contiguous United States so the winner cannot live in Hawaii and Alaska.

Yala Designs: All Natural Comfort! $75 GC #giveaway / Mother's Day Giveaway Hop ends 5/17

Yala Designs: All Natural Comfort!

Part of the Mother's Day Giveaway Hop


Review by Mom Does Reviews


Organic Cotton Cora Lounge Pants

"Made from airy woven organic cotton voile with a light hand feel, our comfortable Cora Lounge Pants are a classic cut. Our classic BambooDreams Kalin Scoop-neck Tee and Sophie Wrap compliment the Cora for outdoor entertaining on the deck. So soft you can even wear these pants to bed, pair with our BambooDreams Cami Tank Top and Rya Kimono Robe for a matching pajama set."

I am a big Lounge Pants fan! I live in them all the time when I am at home. These Organic Cotton Lounge pants are so comfy, light and soft. I was worried that they pants didn't have a drawstring. But the elastic waist is not too tight, it's just right, no drawstring needed. I love the blue color called Riviera. It is calming and so pretty. The pants are so light, I will be able to wear them all summer. I love the pockets! Not many of my lounge pants have pockets! They will even be great to wear to the beach as a cover-up! I give these comfy pants 5 out of 5 stars!


Bamboo Dreams® Cami Top

"Soft and smooth as a second layer of skin, our BambooDreams® Cami Top is the little secret every woman needs underneath it all. Layer it beneath a sweater or jacket, wear it alone in warm weather, sleep in it – no matter its function, the Cami Top’s silky comfort is the same. This piece is so versatile and comes in so many vibrant colors, you should have several folded in your dresser drawer! Adjustable straps."

This is the most comfy Cami Top I own. Can you believe it is made out of bamboo? Talk about organic! It has adjustable straps so you can fit it to your shoulders/body. The color is so bright and matches my Riviera lounge pants perfectly. It looks great layered under a sweater. It will look great on its own too. Did I mention it is comfortable? It's also soft and smooth and feels good on your skin.

I do wish it had a supportive bra shelf area. I give this cami top 4.5 out of 5 stars.




Organic Cotton Monk Bag


Universal, light-weight and machine washable, it’s your go to bag for daily adventures.

"A cheery shoulder bag in a festive Indus inspired floral, our woven organic cotton voile Monk Bag is perfect for the farmer’s market, yoga or a day at the beach. Universal, light-weight and machine washable, it’s your go to bag for daily adventures."

This shoulder bag is so versatile! I can think of 100 ways to use it. It would be great for a day at the beach, work out clothes, shopping, picking fruits and veggies, and even for carrying a little dog. It is made out of organic cotton in the same Riviera pattern as my lounge pants. It is machine washable, a very important detail for moms. If you get it dirty picking veggies, just throw it in the washer and it will be ready for the beach the next day. I give this great bag 5 out of 5 stars.

Tropical Traditions #giveaway valued at $275! #SuperEvents 4/30-5/6

 Emptynesters is happy to bring her fans a chance at winning this awesome prize and share this review by Full Price Never!
Hosted by Full Price? Never! with contributing bloggers CuzinLogic and MyCraftyLife.

About Tropical Traditions: Tropical Traditions has a long history of cultivating superior coconut oil. Founders Brian W. Shilhavy, BA, MA and Marianita Jader Shilhavy, BS, CND actually farmed it themselves in the Philippines which lead to their understanding of the health qualities of coconuts. Once back in the states they recognized a need to find quality coconut products and they filled it! Maybe their most famous product, Coconut Oil is the first thing that people think of when it comes to Coconut products, but Tropical Traditions offers so much more! From organic food to skin care items!
Learn More About Tropical Traditions: Website, Twitter #1, Twitter #2, Google+, Pinterest, Facebook, newsletter.




Personal Review: Heather from Full Price? Never! had the pleasure of reviewing some TROPICAL TRADITIONS products. Here are her thoughts: "I've always loved coconut, but I'd only really ever experienced it in desserts {sad but true}. Who knew that there were so many products that could be made out of coconuts... and that they would be good, really good. We immediately made a bunny rabbit cake and used the coconut chips as the fur. How could we not? Then I sat down and watched Tropical Traditions YouTube channel to get some inspiration. Did you know they have video's of their popular coconut recipe's using their products {don't watch this hungry, they look so good}. Since I was still learning about how to use everything I watched the video that showed 100's of ways to use coconut oil {you can see a list here too}. I really was interested in the Organic Virgin Coconut Teeth Cleaners. I'm very sensitive to the taste of toothpaste... it's my least favorite thing to do so I was thrilled to use Tropical Traditions! The taste was very mild and left my teeth feeling clean and my breath feeling fresh! My next project will be to make brownies using the Organic Coconut Flour with the recipe on the package. Yum! Tropical Traditions get's two thumbs up from me!"
