Freschetta Pizza
May 26, 2010 By 1 Comment
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Freschetta. All opinions are 100% mine.
My family has been loving the samples of Freschetta Pizza that we recently received from Freschetta and Social Spark. There is a great new item out from Freschetta. The Freschetta FlatBread pizzas are a great new addition to the Freschetta line. As a family we are trying to be more health concious but it can be difficult to avoid your favorite foods when they include things like pizza.
One of the things I love about the Freschetta FlatBread pizza is that the thin crust really saves on some calories. I feel like I can splurge and have a cheater meal without killing my calorie intake. The best part my family isn’t complaining about my tricky way of cutting out the excess calories. In fact they love the Zesty Italian and Garlic & Spinach flavors! You can also get Pepperoni and 5-Cheese. If you are in the least interested then by all means take a minute and go print a $1.00 coupon for your own Freschetta pizza. Seriously what do you have to lose? Not much the way I see it. You get a fast supper that is pleasing to the family and you won’t kill your diet. Try one today!

The Right Call
May 19, 2010 By 1 Comment
I recently had the opportunity to finish reading “The Right Call” by Kathy Herman. This is the third book in the Sophie Trace Trilogy. You can read my previous review of the second book as well. Vanessa returns with Ethan from book two to be the primary characters in The Right Call. This is a very easy and enticing read as you follow a story of gambling, secrets and the desire for people to be in control. How do these characteristics fit into the Christian lifestyle and when we stumble how does one’s Christianity lead us to make different choices. The twists and turns in The Right Call are going to lead you down these paths with the Jessup family.
The Right Call (Sophie Trace Trilogy)
The downside to the book, it is the end of the trilogy and likely the retirement of the characters I have grown to love. I am sure Kathy Herman’s next series will be just as brilliant but I am often disappointed when I finish a series of books that I have really poured myself into reading.
A copy of The Right Call was provided by B&B for the purposes of review. No other compensation was provided. Opinions are 100% mine.
Pringles Multigrain
May 17, 2010 By 1 Comment
I am a huge snacker. Depending on my mood (yeah I am an emotional eater too) I tend to be like many of you and want something either sweet or salty. It is a habit I wish I could kick but none the less it is a reality. Recently Mom Central and Pringles sent me a sample of Pringles Multigrain. These are now high on my list for a salty snack. Not only can you munch them up way too fast but I love the texture of the chips.
My boys were all curious and raided my chip stash (Poor me) and little to say they didn’t last long. The men of the house agreed that if Pringles are on our shopping list we will definately be switching over to the multigrain varieties. I really appreciate that Pringles chose to add these chips to their line and I hope to see more flavors in the future. The ranch, cheddar and original we tried were all great but I think the ranch chips were the first out and finished. Way to go Pringles and thanks for satisfying our snacking!
What makes buying Pringles Multigrain a better choice? If you purchase and enter your UPC from now until June 30th at Pringles Multigrain Pringles will donate $1 (up to $100,000) to Share Our Strength®, the leading organization working to end childhood hunger in America. My snacking just got better didn’t yours?
“I wrote this review while participating in a blog campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Pringles Multigrain and received a sample to facilitate my candid review. Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.”
