Valentine’s Day Party-Wilton Cupcake Theme

February 1, 2010 by

Cookies, cakes and candies Oh My! Who doesn’t love at least one of the things I mentioned? In our house we love cupcakes. There needs to be no special occasion or special visitors to have adorable cupcakes but what a great little surprise to give to someone you love.

I’ve become a better baker over the last couple years with the help of Wilton. With an extensive selection of high quality kitchen and baking supplies and ingredients Wilton helps everyday cooks become masters in their own homes. For Shae’s 1st birthday I tackled the giant cupcake, it was so cute. I’ve worked on a few other baking projects and have been pleased with everything I’ve tried from Wilton from their baking sheets to pastry bag to decorative cupcake liners.

I recently received a special gift from Wilton; Flower Power and Teddy Bear Silicon baking cups. What I love about these is I can easily fit a dozen cups on a baking sheet and place them into the oven, no more cumbersome cupcake tins. And the cups are so cute I frost and serve the cupcakes still inside. It’s a special touch to an already special treat. The directions say that they are dishwasher safe but mine didn’t come clean that way. I used a bottle brush and everything was fine.

Wilton Enterprises offers the industry´s most comprehensive and innovative selection of baking, cake decorating, candy making, cookie making, wedding, baby, party, seasonal and kitchen products. These products are designed to make it easy for anyone to enjoy the thrill of serving something special and utilizing unique style and design while doing it.

Valentine’s Day Party-Lisa Leonard Jewelry

February 1, 2010 by

How do you express your feelings to the one you love? How about a sweet piece of sterling silver jewelry that says LOVE all over it? Lisa Leonard is an artist that handcrafts, hammers, polishes, drills and assembles as collection of beautiful, sentimental and emotional jewelry.

I received my Lots of Love Necklace a couple weeks back. The moment I opened it I gasped a little and said “How lovely”. Those were the exact words out of my mouth; cute wasn’t the right word but fabulous sounded pretentious, lovely is the perfect description. The tag is stamped multiple times with the word love along with a little heart then a pearl charm hanging next to it. It’s delicate without being dainty and casual enough or everyday but also elegant for date night.
Since High School Lisa has been making jewelry but decided when her 1st child was born she wanted to do something different, something that let her be a mom first but still provides an income. This courageous step has not only brought great success but significant connections with women all over the world. Her business exists and thrives because she produces beautiful pieces that get noticed at the grocery store, coffee shop, office and everywhere in between.

 

I chose my necklace from Lisa’s inspired line. This is where you’ll find pieces with meaning like a tag that says “I hold your heart in mine” or a formed skeleton key to give someone the key to your heart. Lisa also has a large selection of custom options to add names, birthdates, words or initials. Each piece is custom made and with space and time allowed Lisa is able to accommodate lots of different requests.

One of my other favorite pieces is the Open Circle Bracelet. Customized on both sides of the circle with the names or phrase of your choice on a sturdy sterling chain this is something that will catch eyes and the signature dangling pearl is a sweet feminine touch. Don’t be fooled by all the “pretty things”, Lisa also designs items for men. I’ve been trying to get a personalized keychain for Rob for many years but each time he balks. I don’t think he understands how powerful a feeling he would feel every time he looked at the personal inscription to Daddy. His birthday is coming up; maybe this is the year I do it anyway.

Win a $50 Gift Certificate to help you choose that perfect piece for yourself or someone you love. Visit Lisa Leonard and tell me what other piece of jewelry you love that was NOT mentioned above.

Juice Box Heroes – No Sugar Added CD Recap

January 31, 2010 by

The 80’s were a time when music was simple and easy and the artists are still remembered to this day. Just in case you forgot or are trying to block out the 80’s here are a few artists I remember vividly: George Michael, Rick Springfield, Twisted Sister and Cyndi Lauper. There is an awesome band called Juice Box Heroes that plays these 80’s artists with a kids twist.

Juice Box Heroes brothers Craig and Scott Coane both played in 80’s bands in college and after college they started their own 80’s band. After becoming dads Craig and Scott realized playing in bars until 2 a.m. and then having to wake up for that 5 a.m. bottle feeding wasn’t going to work and they realized something needed to change. Enter Juice Box Heroes.

Heralded as “song favorites for parents, fun new lyrics for kids”, Juice Box Heroes takes the very best songs from the past and parodies them for young kids. Their debut album “No Sugar Added” is now available at juiceboxeheroes.com.

When we received this CD for analyse Shaun and I were pretty excited because we love music and Shaun loves to listen to music every night at bedtime. What caught my eye was the catchy titles to old 80’s classics like “Puppy’s Fur” which is a parody of Rick Springfield’s Jessie’s Girl. No Sugar Added is filled with awesome songs that you and your kids will love listening to.


This CD is so good Shaun has listened to it every night at bed time since we received it and he is a pain when it comes to music so that is how I know it is good. Every night when I put Shaun to bed I ask him what CD he wants to listen to and he tells me “Dad, the same one I listen to every night, Juice Box Heroes”. This is my story and I’m stickin to it.

Want a Juice Box Heroes CD of your own for you and your kids to enjoy?  Two lucky Look What Mom Found…and Dad too! readers will get this terrific CD.  Go to Juice Box Heroes and sign up to be a member of the fan club.  This is the mandatory entry.

Got Plans for the Weekend? Let Goby.com Help-CLOSED

January 28, 2010 by

On Saturday morning do you wake up wondering what to do with the kids to kill the boredom bug. Goby.com is a new service that has gathered all kinds of activities together in one spot. Sort by location, type of entertainment and date to come up with a variety of things to do. Some things might be your old standby or undiscovered treasures in your own backyard.

We’ve lived in Maryland almost 3years but still get stumped with new places to visit. I punched in our desired location and used the keyword “family fun” and found a couple museums that Sabreena would enjoy but was also reminded of the B & O Railroad Museum. Rob and I had been there for a function and thought the kids would really enjoy it but forgot all about that idea.

Not just for excursions with the kids Goby.com will seek out nightlife, hotels and theaters in a specific area. I like to try new restaurants, Mexican being my favorite so my most recent search showed me a whole new selection to choose from; I’ve settled on Blue Agave in Baltimore.

Goby poses three questions: What, Where and When. By answering just two of the three questions, you can instantly receive an easy-to-read results page that includes not only detailed information about attractions, activities, locations and events, but also an interactive map and photos from sites like Google and Flickr. Check out Goby.com today and be inspired by the myriad of things you can do!

Let Goby.com treat you and your family on a day out of fun and entertainment by winning a $50 AMEX Gift Card . Visit Goby.com and tell me what kind of activities you find in your own backyard that you hadn’t known of before.

Fishful Thinking Parenting Tool and Pepperidge Farm Gift Basket Giveaway-CLOSED

January 26, 2010 by
Growing up I thought a parents job was easy but now a father of three I see that is not the case.  Raising kids is a very difficult job and sometimes parents could use a little help and guidance. Fishful Thinking by Pepperidge Farm is a great tool for parents.

Fishful Thinking is made up of five key ingredients that we as parents can strengthen in our children and they are Optimism, Resilience, Goal Setting, Empowerment, and Emotional Awareness. Fishful Thinking is a terrific site with so much to offer parents so they can raise positive kids.
Under each of the five ingredients you will find a ton of great information like a definition of the category word, articles, activities, videos and facts. For example:

Optimism is the skill of focusing on the positive – without denying the negative – and channeling one’s energy toward what is controllable. Optimistic people expect good things to happen in their lives and work toward creating positive change. Fishful ThinkingSM helps parents learn new ways to promote optimism in their families and to create an environment that fosters positive emotions and the belief in possibilities.

Another feature of Fishful Thinking that caught my eye was the Quick Finder at the top right of the site. The Quick Finder lets you jump right to certain articles based on a child’s age and the skill set you are interested in reading more about. The first thing you would do is select the child’s age and the second thing you would select is the skill set you have an interest in. After that it will display all of the articles based on your criteria.

Pepperidge Farm has a ton of great products like Goldfish, Tim Tams, crackers and now they have a great parenting resource to add to their awesome line up of products.

There is so much more to Fishful thinking then is in my review so when you get a few minutes head over to Fishful Thinking and look around. You will find so many useful articles, videos and information that you can apply to your everyday life.

Pepperidge Farm has been nice enough to offer three lucky Look What Mom Found…and Dad too! readers a chance to win a Pepperidge Farm gift basket.  All you have to do is go to Fishful Thinking and tell me one fact not listed in this review.

Eden Home Organic, Study and In-home Spa Treatment

January 18, 2010 by

Where do you turn to shop for natural and eco-friendly bedding, clothing, baby products and everything else for your home?

Eden Home is the one place to find a complete selection of organic, all-natural and eco-friendly products for your home and life that won’t have you compromising your sense of style. Many of the so-called “organic” and “natural” products sold today are either not pure or not beautiful. So Eden Home was started to offer healthy choices ranging from organic clothes for baby to natural bath towels, from organic cookware to all natural shampoos.

When I was approached by Eden Home I was 1st pleased by the lovely design and easy to navigate site. Next I was amazed at the large selection of everything under the sun. I really enjoyed the variety of kids and baby gear: from organic clothes to natural toys to natural skincare to BPA-free feeding tools. Bedding and Clothing is where I made my first stops. Bamboo sheets are my new favorite indulgence in the bedroom but bamboo clothing is my new favorite personal indulgence. There is something special about the feel of organic bamboo and cotton, the result is silkiness against the skin with no pilling, snags or misshaping.

I was able to ANALYSE a pair of comfy Blue Canoe easy style pants. Easy is a perfect word for these stretchy wide-legged lounge pants. I got the Cognac color thinking it would be brown, I was wrong it had a warm cocoa/rust color, different from what I was expecting but still a pretty.
I would love to try out the unique cooking tools available. The La Chamba Clay Pot collection is truly one-of-a-kind. Made in Colombia not very differently than previous centuries these clay pots are hand formed and free of glazes and lead.

Look around Eden Home for yourself and tell me what green changes you want to make for your home for your chance to win a Bath/Spa Treatment gift basket for a natural destress in your own home.

Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System

January 17, 2010 by

Being as anal as I am I always worry about the house when we are away for any length of time. Thank goodness for Logitech because my fears are now calmed with the Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System.

Logitech was nice enough to send me the Indoor Video Security Master System for analysis. I am grateful they did because I received it before Christmas and was able to set the camera up in the living room. The camera was setup so it would capture any activity in the living room which is where our Christmas tree and presents were.
Setup was simple and in less than 15 minutes my camera was up and running. All I had to do was run the setup wizard to install the software on my computer, plug in the USB receiver module and then setup and plug in the camera and that was about it. The Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System uses Homeplug connectivity which means you’ll be up and running in no time—no new wires to run, no network configuration. It transmits encrypted video over your existing electrical wires straight to your PC. It’s really that easy.

Once I was done with these steps the next thing I did was go to the WiLife Command Center and got myself familiar with how the command center works. The WiLife Command Center is where you can playback recorded video or watch live video.

What I think is really cool about the Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System is that when the camera detects motion WiLife automatically records video and saves them as .wmv files on your pc’s hard drive. Once recorded on your hard drive you can go back and watch the video segments via the playback screen.

The Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System also allows you to receive email and cell phone alerts when a camera detects motion. You have the option to receive one of three message types: simple text only, text and one frame of video or a video clip. You also have the ability to remotely watch video while away from home via a computer or Windows Mobile enabled wireless PDAs or cell phones. Log into WiLife Online at online.wilife.com and you can access live video from your cameras anywhere in the world, at any time.


Watch CBS News Videos Online

The Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System supports up to six cameras so if you need to add additional cameras you have the option to. Logitech also has an outdoor camera you can add in addition to the indoor cameras if you need to record what is going on outside of the home. If you need additional features other then what I have listed or system requirements click HERE.

I have been using the Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System for about two months and am really impressed with how easy the system was to setup and use. I am also impressed with the cameras video quality. If you need piece of mind while away from the home I would recommend picking up the Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System.

Want to win your own Logitech Indoor Video Security Master System ? Visit Logitech and tell me what you like most about the indoor or outdoor security system.

Musicolor Recapitulation

January 11, 2010 by

I never really thought music and art were two things that you would put together until the Musicolor.  The Musicolor lets kids explore their artistic side then allows them to enjoy the music that they created.

The Musicolor comes with pre-printed coloring discs that you simply color in the spaces according to the letter printed in the area, when you are done, the disc will play the song for the scene you have just colored! For kids who want to be really creative, use the blank song discs and create your own masterpiece from scratch.


What I really think is cool about the Musicolor is that it resembles a classisc record player.

The Musicolor music player consists of a rotating base and an arm for reading the music discs, much the same as a DVD player reads a DVD. The arm scans over the colored areas of the music disc rotating on the music player, reads the color and translates it to sound. The player also has three sounds: piano, violin and trumpet.”

When Shae first opened the Musicolor she saw the music note markers and immediately wanted to start coloring. Little did Shae know that the song disc she was coloring was going to be turned into music on the Musicolor music player. Shae really loves music and she also loves to color and the Musicolor has found a way for her to enjoy both at the same time.

In my opinion what makes the Musicolor so great is it is perfect for a wide age range. If you have an older child they most likely would enjoy the the blank ‘Create-a-song’ music discs while younger kids would like the pre-printed song discs that are color-by-number.

The Musicolor is currently available online at target.com, amazon.com and deltacreative.com, Musicolor sells for $49.99 with a variety of accessories for years of creative fun.

Musicolor • Ages: 4+ • $49.99
Musicolor is the first of its kind to combine coloring and music in one toy! Musicolor includes 1 music player, 14 pre-printed song discs, 8 music note markers, 5 create-a-song discs, and 1 pre-colored song disc. Just color the song disc, place the disc on your music player and listen to your creation. Simply color, play, and listen!

Create A Song Discs • $5.99
A full set of 20 Create-a-Song discs to use in addition to the discs included with Musicolor for endless fun.

Music Note Markers • $5.99
A full set of 8 Music Note Markers to use in addition to the markers included with Musicolor or as replacements whenever the creative mood strikes you.

 

If your child enjoys art and music be sure to check out the Musicolor but don’t forget to buy extra accessories becuase your kids are going to play with this for hours.

Do you have a music loving artist in your house? If so you are in luck because Delta Creative is offering one lucky Look What Mom Found…and Dad too! reader a chance to win a Musicolor of their own.  Head over to Delta Creative and tell what other product you think is cool and would love to try.

Climb for a Cause, clean drinking water with PUR and GIVEAWAY-CLOSED

January 9, 2010 by

Clean water is definitely something we take for granted. Every day, 4,000 children in developing countries die from illness and disease related to unsafe drinking water. Since 2004, PŪR and the CSDW (Children’s Safe Drinking Water) Program have worked together to prevent water-related diseases with tiny packets of PŪR water purification powder which, developed by a P&G engineer, can transform potentially deadly water into clear, purified drinking water within 30 minutes. The CSDW Program and its partners distribute these PŪR sachets throughout the world and, to-date, have delivered over 1.6 billion liters of clean drinking water to those in need.

January 7th marked the start of SUMMIT ON THE SUMMIT; a climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro in hopes of raising worldwide awareness about this critical need for clean drinking water. The climb will be spotlighted by celebrities and musical artists such as; Jessica Biel, Alexandra Cousteau and Lupe Fiasco and Dr Greg Algood (founder of CSDW.org) acting as the team’s water expert. In addition to scaling Mt. Kilimanjaro, the climbers will be visiting a nearby village in Arusha, Tanzania where Dr. Allgood will show them, firsthand, the toll the global water crisis is taking on communities around the world, as well as the relief efforts being used to help.

Procter & Gamble’s PŪR Water Filtration has joined forces with SUMMIT ON THE SUMMIT to raise awareness about the need for clean drinking water in the developing world and funds for life-saving water programs. By simply using a PŪR Water Filtration system you can remove many of the common contaminants found in regular drinking water. Also switching from bottled water to filtered water and a reusable bottle can save one person up to $600 a year and eliminate up to 3,200 plastic bottles.

How can you help?
1 System = 1 Week: For every PŪR Water Filtration system purchase, one week of clean drinking water is provided to a child in the developing world through CSDW. To-date, CSDW has already provided 1.8 billion liters of clean water to children and their families around the world. Every PUR system purchase provides 10 liters of clean drinking water to children in the developing world through the CSDW (Children’s Safe Drinking Water) Program.Join the clean drinking water cause by purchasing a PŪR pitcher or faucet mount system, which donates a week’s worth of clean drinking water to a small child in a developing country.

Many years ago my father stricken with Giardia, a water borne infection that affects the intestines. While he’s ok today he went through hell for 2 weeks with dehydration, abdominal pain, kidney shutdown and hospitalization. He didn’t visit an undeveloped country, he didn’t drink from a lake or stream, he took a sip from an office building water fountain. Clean water is a necessity for everyone.
