Crocs Berryessa Buckle Ladies Boot



If you have pair of Crocs Clogs, you know how comfortable they are.  The problem is with winter coming up they are not that ideal for daily wear.  Thankfully they have a line of boots that are.

To get ready for winter Crocs sent me a pair of the new Berryessa Buckle Boots:
  • Suede leather upper.
  • Slouchy shaft can be worn upright or folded over to expose furry lining.
  • Buckle detailing for trendy style.
  • Fully lined with faux fur top and brushed tricot for comfort and warmth.
  • Fully molded Croslite™ material base, buffed for a suede-like appearance.
  • Croslite™ material outsole with rubber pods for increased traction and durability.

Does size worry you?  This boot comes in whole sizes, but if you need a 1/2 size larger you will need to order up to the next size.  This boot is relaxed, so if you have thick socks or a wide foot you will be in good shape.  You can also take advantage of the buckle and adjust as needed.

These boots are comfortable and causal.  They are ideal for daily wear such as running to the store, dropping off the kids at school.  More importantly they are warm and dry.  They almost make me wish that the snow would start falling...notice I say almost!

Crocs has a great sale going on right now, select styles are 60% off, many are summer styles so stock up now and avoid having to track down shoes in the spring.

Thank you to Crocs for my sample used in this review, opinions are honest.

Mr. Popper's Penguins for the Whole Family on December 6th

My daughter loves penguins and I mean loves penguins.  Anything having to do with them she is instantly attracted to.  Whether it is at the zoo or a stuffed animal, she has to check it out.  Imagine how excited she was when we put in our copy of the movie Mr. Popper's Penguins and she got to see them in action.

Mr. Popper's Penguins starring Jim Carrey and 6 fun penguins and a few other humans comes out on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Download on December 6th.  

My family and I had not gone to the theater to see this movie, so we were all excited to sit down with some popcorn and drinks and check it out.  If you have not seen it, this movie is more than just about penguins, it is about personal emotional growth and the family.  I do not want to give the plot away, but this movie has something for everyone.  My daughter of course loved watching the 6 wild and wacky penguins-when they were on the screen she could not take her eyes off of them and got a lot of laughs from their antics and the reactions they caused in the humans they interacted with.

Did you know that this movie is based on a book from 1938 that won the Newberry Medal ?  One of the features on the Blu-ray and DVD is “The Legacy of Mr. Popper’s Penguins” which highlights literary experts and family of the authors Richard and Florence Atwater telling the fascinating story behind the story.

The Blu-ray/DVD/Digital copy also includes some  Special Features including:
o   Animated Short: Nimrod and Stinky’s Antarctic Adventure
o   The Legacy of Mr. Popper’s Penguins
o   Ladies and Gentoomen
o   Ready for their Closeup
o   Stuffy Penguin Theater
o   Penguin Pandemonium
o   Original Story Sampler
·         Gag Reel
·         Feature Audio Commentary
·         Tooth Fairy 2 – Sneak Peek
·         Theatrical Trailer


You can pre-order this movie from the Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment website.  The Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy is priced at $25.99 and the DVD is $18.99.  I also found the Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy on Amazon for $24.99 and the DVD for $16.99


Thanks to Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment for my sample for review. Opinions are honest.

Invitation Box Makes Personalized Stationery Gifts A Must This Season



Finding the perfect gift for some people can be hard.  When I am faced with this I tend to go with a simple gift that is personalized and reflects that persons personality.   Invitation Box, offers a line of stationery that can be personalized for an entire family.

 Everyone loves the gift that is personalized just for them! Pick out stylish stationery and/or address labels for the recipient from InvitationBox and personalize it - with their name, mailing address, and even photo for an extra-special touch! Whether they have a favorite collegiate team that they are rooting for, or just want a touch of simple elegance, there is something for everyone from this online purveyor of unique stationery.

Invitation Box recently sent me a set of Vintage Blue Botanitcals Crystal Thank You Cards:

 This vintage top fold thank you note is printed on crystal white shimmer card stock which features an array of blue, brown and green garden botanicals, swirls and dots. Includes crystal white shimmer

What I like about this card is that the design is such that it can be sent for any occasion.  Rather than having Thank You printed, you could have your name added.  By doing so the card becomes versatile and can be used as a thank you note or a personal piece that can be sent as a simple hello to a friend you have not spoken to in a while.

One other item that I saw on the site that would be perfect as a family gift is an Embosser with the family's name, initial or.  It would even be perfect for your "boss" by making a great desk accessory.    

Be sure to take a look, InvitationBox is always adding discount codes and free shipping offers.

Thank you to Orca Communications for my sample used in this review, opinions are honest.

Men's Boat Loafers by Crocs for the Guys

My husband is a creature of habit when it comes to clothes and shoes.  Since years before I met him about 12 years ago his shoe style of choice has been deck shoes.  He wears them in the winter with socks and during the summer without socks.  Then when he comes home, he slips the deck shoes off and then usually puts on a pair of Crocs to wear around the house.

Imagine his excitement when he found that Crocs has expanded their footwear choices and one of their new styles is a Men's Boat Loafer called the Harborline. The sole of the shoe is similar to what you will find in the traditional Crocs, only thicker with a nice gripping tread.  The outside of the shoe looks just like a deck shoe, but the inside of the shoe is much more comfortable and cushier than any of the other brands he has worn my husband said.  The Crocs Harborline is lighter than the traditional deck shoe too, which is a plus as far as my husband is concerned.  Plus, this particular style comes in 4 different color combinations.  The one my husband received thanks to Crocs is Espresso/Black.  It also comes in Black/Black, Hazelnut/White and Navy/White. 

The Harborline is just one example of the huge selection of styles made by Crocs.  I encourage you to visit the Crocs website to check out what they have to offer. They have something for everyone in your family and on your holiday gift list.  Plus, right now they are offering free shipping on all orders over $69.  On Amazon, I found this style priced from $40-$90. 

Thanks to Crocs for my sample for review. Opinions are honest.

Bodycology Gives You A Spa At Home.


Have you seen all the holiday gift sets that are out already ?  If so then I am sure you have seen the two item set from Bodycology.

The Sweet Petals bath set (shown above) comes with a mesh sponge, fragrance mist, body creak and a lip gloss.  It is available at Walmart for only $5, and is already wrapped for you with a pink ribbon! 

 The Mini Bath Bundle is a perfect stocking stuffer, it contains both a bubble bath and body cream.  My kit came in brown sugar vanilla.

What I like about Bodycology is that the products do what the claim and the scents last for hours.  It is an expensive line that allows you to pamper yourself at home and avoid the cost of going to the spa.  Both sets come perfectly packaged, topped with a pink ribbon. They are personal, affordable and absolutely adorable!

BeautyRx Skin Care By Dr. Schultz


 Until recently I did not take skin care too seriously, but the older I get the more important I see it becoming.  BeautyRx Skincare by Dr. Schultz is turning science into beauty.  Which for many of us is a good thing.  While the line contains many products, two of them have been working well for me.


Protects your skin from dangerous and damaging free radicals and oxidative stress, common causes of premature skin aging which also can lead to skin cancer, by using our BeautyRx Protective Vitamin C Serum every evening. This antioxidant serum contains the most effective topical form of Vitamin C as well as our BeautyRx proprietary antioxidant compound, Triantiox™, to keep your skin looking young and healthy.

 Replenish the sensitive skin around your eyes with our exclusive BeautyRx Ultra Nourishing Eye Therapy Cream. Enhanced with Hexatensity and Triantiox, two BeautyRx proprietary compounds, this luxurious cream reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and helps to protect your skin with antioxidants, while it moisturizes.

 I have been testing both products for about a month now and what I have noticed more than anything is a more even look to my skin tone.  So much so I am confident to run my child to school without makeup on.  I also have noticed a difference in texture, normally this time of the year I start to have some dried patches, I love not having dry skin!

    Growums Garden Kits



    We all know how important it is for our children to eat their vegetables, and I have found with my own 4 year old, when he helps grow the veggies he is much more likely to eat them. In fact, in general he won't touch tomatoes, however he helped me grow some grape tomatoes in my tiny garden this summer and he was more than willing to pick them and eat them when they were ripe. So I was super excited to be introduced to Growums.
    Growups are little garden starter kits that teach children to grow their own herbs and vegetables from seed to harvest. They currently have 6 specially-themed garden kits that combine learning and fun along with a unique and exciting online educational experience, where they will meet an animated cast of herbs and vegetables who will teach them what they need to do to grow their plants and eat them too! Currently the 6 garden kits are:
    1. Herb Garden
    2. Pizza Garden
    3. Salad Garden
    4. Stir-Fry Garden
    5. Taco Garden
    6. Ratatouille Garden
    Each garden kit comes with unique, magical coco (peat) pellets that make planting and growing almost fail-proof, 4 seed packets of the 4 different herbs & veggies included and 8 plant tags so you know which is which.

    I am super excited about Growums and so is my 4 year old. We were given a Taco Garden and a Ratatouille Garden to check out. Since winter is almost upon us, we decided to wait a bit before we started our little gardens--my child begs to differ--he wants to do it now but I am Mom, I win--garden starts in the spring. Given how excited my child was about helping in the garden this past season and how excited he is about starting his own, I am contemplating getting the other kits and just letting him take over the majority of the garden, most of what we planted last year is included in these kits anyway, so why not make it a bigger family event. We have played a bit on the website as well so it will be really fun to see how our garden grows along with the website characters. 

    Growums will make a neat stocking stuffer that will keep giving well into harvest season. I know my 4 year is ecstatic about getting started on his!

    The Voyages of Young Doctor Dolittle



    Phase 4 Films announced the release of their new animated family production, based on the 1920's children's book series, The Voyages of Young Doctor Dolittle, stars Jane Seymour, Jason Alexander, Tim Curry and Tom Kenny and will be available at all major retailers nationwide.
    Here is the synopsis of The Voyages of Young Doctor Dolittle from the back of the DVD case:

    John Dolittle loves animals just like his uncle, Doctor Dolittle. When John is warned that animals are in danger, he jumps into his uncle's submarine to help. When he arrives at Dolittle Island, he learns that it has been taken over by Ramsey the Ram and his army of gorillas. With a little help from some new friends, John comes to the rescue and saves the island.
    Special Features:
    *Downloadable Activity Sheet
    *Slide Show
    *Trailer

    My 4 year old loved The Voyages of Young Doctor Dolittle. I think it had good lessons about how to treat others, friendship and how to treat animals with respect. We are animals lovers in our house so this film was quite enjoyable for all of us!

    The Cooking Light Gluten-Free Cookbook



    With the number people who require a gluten-free diet is on the rise, so is the importance of finding some great recipes that you can safely serve family, friends or even yourself, who are gluten intolerant. Cooking Light (#1 epicurean brand) has developed some gluten-free recipes that taste great also. They have compiled 150 of their best gluten-free recipes, so far in their new cookbook, The Cooking Light Gluten-Free cookbook: Simple Food Solutions for Everyday Meals (Oxmoor House, 2011).
    Here is synopsis of The Cooking Light Gluten-Free cookbook from it's back cover:
    Eat the Foods You Love
    Rediscover pizzas and pastas and muffins and cakes in delicious gluten-free form. In The Cooking Light Gluten-Free Cookbook, you'll find these favorites plus a variety of other healthy everyday dishes ideal for a gluten-free lifestyle.
    Inside you'll find:
    • More than 150 satisfying gluten-free dishes for every meal of the day
    • Dairy-free recipes and ingredients that potentially contain gluten are clearly identified
    • A complete gluten-free kitchen guide to help you stock your kitchen and prevent cross-contamination
    • Smart cooking tips for the Test Kitchens and comments from readers who live gluten free and have made these recipes. 
    I know I have several people in my life that require a gluten-free diet. The Cooking Light Gluten-Free Cookbook is a great cookbook/ resource for those of us who are new to gluten-free cooking and also for veteran gluten-free cooks looking for some new recipes to make simple everyday meals. The recipes are great and the majority require ingredients that are easily accessible and are fairly easy to make. I love getting new cookbooks and I know several of my family and friends also feel the same way. I think cookbooks make great gifts and I think this one would be very much appreciated by those who require a gluten-free diet or those who cook for people who do!

    FruitaBu by Stretch Island Fruit Co.

    Several years ago, I was introduced to the Stretch Island Fruit Co. Fruit Strips which are all natural real fruit leather. I was more recently introduced to their FruitaBu. I love both of their products--both are all natural, smoooshed fruit--nothing artificial. The Fruit Strips contain 1/2 serving of fruit, while the FruitaBu is a full serving of fruit. I love both products, my 4 year old loves the FruitaBu (I think only because he loved that he can unroll them, because he likes both but when given a choice he chooses the FruitaBu). The FruitaBu come in 3 delicious kid-friendly fruit flavors:


    Stretch Island Fruit Co. FruitaBu are perfect for in your children's lunches and as a afternoon snack. It is a great way to get a full serving of fruit into your children. They are in small little pouches that make them super portable, so they are great for keeping in your purse as a healthy pick-me-up for you or your children--we frequently have them as a snack when we go straight from school to either therapy or class.  They would make great additions to their stockings on St Nick's Day or Christmas morning.

    Scrubbing Bubbles One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaning System



    Trying to stay on top of cleaning during the holiday season can be quite a challenge, and if you are like me, the bathroom is my least favorite room to clean especially the toilet. Scrubbing Bubbles has recently introduced their new One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaning system to help you take care of that chore. Now all you have to do is step a couple times a day to keep your inner bowl clean!
    They Scrubbing Bubbles One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaning system is designed to keep your inner bowl free of toilet rings, hard water marks & limescale all month long.  The starter kit comes with everything you need to get you started: 
    • 1 device--sprayer with clip to attach to the toilet edge, tube and base with pedal pump and a sleeve to cover the can to keep everything looking sleek
    • 1 refill can--lasts up to 30 days when used twice daily as directed
    No batteries are required! It took me less than 2 minutes to get ours set up and going--super quick and easy. So far it has worked wonderfully. No scrubbing--just a step and 360 degree sprayer action gets the entire inner bowl clean--I simply wipe down the outside of the bowl (Scrubbing Bubbles has a great antibacterial bathroom wipe that are perfect for the outside) with a step and a swipe and the whole bowl is clean in a minute. I love being able to spend less time cleaning toilets, now I need to get 2 more for the other toilets in my home.

    Scrubbing Bubbles One Step Toilet Bowl Cleaning System is a great way to shorten your cleaning time (while still getting the clean you want) during the holidays and all year long!

    Pravana Color Ensure Shampoo and Conditioner



    Since 2004, Pravana has been bringing stylists highly sophisticated formulas, that utilize both the power of nature and the strength of technology with the development of their Naturceutical TM hair care and color products, that provide superior results! All Pravana shampoos are sulfate and sulfite-free. Their entire line is free of phtalates, MEA, DEA and meet the strictest environmental regulations. They are also a cruelty free company.
    I was recently introduced to the Pravana Color Ensure Shampoo and Conditioner. This set is designed to preserve color with brilliant vitality, ensuring hair color is more vibrant for longer. The shampoo gently cleanses while providing moisture and strength through Pravana's Proprietary Naturceutical Complex. The exotic Maurita Flexuosa Fruit Seed Oil naturally shields hair color from the fading effects of the sun, while adding intense moisture leaving hair vibrant and hydrated.  The Conditioner replenishes hair while preserving the vibrance of your color, intense botanical extracts and Pravana's Proprietary Naturceutical Complex provides moisture and added strength.

    I was given a set of the Pravana Color Ensure Shampoo and Conditioner to try out for this review. I have to admit, this is the first I have heard of this brand, but I love how well this works on my hair. I have medium textured, unruly curly hair with reddish highlights that tend to brass easily. I have noticed since I started to use this duo my hair is softer and more manageable. I have also noticed that the color seems to have stayed truer. I would definitely recommend giving the Pravana Color Ensure duo a chance if you are looking for a great color-safe shampoo & conditioner that will help with the health of your hair. What a great gift this duo would make for yourself or someone on your shopping list!

     Thank you to Pravana for my samples used in this review, opinions are honest.  Review by Michelle.

    Dixit Board Game



    Dixit, created by Libellud and distributed by Asmodee, is a multi-award winning in Europe board game that requires the use of one's imagination.
    Dixit is an exciting game of storytelling through the use of your imagination and giving clues. Dixit is designed for 3 to 6 players, ages 8 and up, and takes about 30 minutes to play a round. The game comes with 84 beautifully illustrated cards, 36 voting tokens in 6 different colors, 6 wooden rabbits and a rule book. 

    To play Dixit, each player receives 6 cards. One player is selected as the storyteller for the round. As the players tell stories, they earn points to move individually colored rabbit icons around a scoring track to the finish line. The scoring system is where all the subtlety of Dixit is expressed--the storyteller needs to be subtle enough to have one player understand but not all the players. Here is a video demonstration on how to play Dixit, which will help it all make sense!

    I thought Dixit was quite easy to learn and a lot of fun to play. I love that it can be played easily with people of multiple ages! Once you play through it once you start to get more creative with your descriptions! It would also make a great party game or for a family game night. It is a great game that is not highly stressful and can bring lots of laughter. The imagery on the cards is pretty impressive. I also like it for the creative aspect of the creative game--I could even see it in the classroom as a way to stimulate creative thinking. It will definitely stimulate the mind of all who are playing. 

    Dixit would make a great gift for those who love to entertain or families who love to play board games, especially those who love a creative challenge!
