Gripstic Review and Giveaway


Say goodybe to your old chunky chip clip, and hello the the gripstic. Unlike the chip clip this is a cylidrical object, and fits easily in my drawer!  I would say that it looks like a jumbo pencil and is a little bit longer! The one-piece GRIPSTIC slides onto almost any bag and seals chips, snacks and coffee as well as cereal, frozen food and salad and even bags used in the garden or garage.
The gripstic is very easy to use.  I did have to look at the directions below, which are also on the back of the package.

 The gripstic is available at multiple locations including Albertson's, Bed Bath & Beyond, Giant Stores, Stop & Shop, Kroger, Safeway, Publix, and Winn Dixie.  You can purchase a 3 pack for 3.99  Online ordering will be available soon.

Gripstick would like to give one lucky myokcmommy a pack to try out for themselves.

I Love Toy Trains: All Aboard! DVD Giveaway

 I Love Toy Trains - All Aboard!

I Love Toy Trains: All Aboard! features thrilling live-action footage, toy and real-train action, elaborate layouts, train trivia, spectacular new special effects and six new sons by award-winning composer James Coffey. Hop aboard the spooky Halloween train featuring lots of ghouls, ghosts and goblins. Take a trip to Area 51 and see flying saucers, UFOs and aliens. Visit Big Rock Candy Mountain, where your favorite candies are being loaded and unloaded on Lionel accessories. Be amazed by the world's largest G-scale, outdoor layout at the Living Desert in California, and a giant Lego train layout. Watch a jet-powered Budd car set a speed record that still stands today.

My little boys love anything train.  They love watching the actual train go by on the tracks, which I am very glad of, because the trains move very slowly through our town! If they didn't enjoy the train, it would make for a long wait! This DVD is really cute, I enjoyed seeing the lego trains, and my boys are really into aliens right now, and there is a section on that as well.
This DVD can be purchased here.

Discover that big-sized fun is waiting for you every morning, and every day you grow is loaded with Tee-riffic adventures!


DVD BONUS FEATURES
•BJ’s Batting Cage Counting Game
•Peek-a-Boo Game

My four year old loves to brush his teeth.  This dvd has a song and skit about brushing teeth.  We sing it all of the time.  "I brush my teeth, but I never let the water run"  I thought that was cute how they were teaching the kids to shut the water off.  My oldest son still can't tie his shoelaces, so that was definitely an important part for him to watch, and we will watch that one a few more times I'm sure!  This DVD will be available on May 17th and can be purchased here.

Put on your jammies and snuggle in for eight sleepytime adventures.

Then, watch as Barney shows you the magic of nighttime and Bob the Builder lights up a football field for a nighttime game! Your favorite friends are waiting to cuddle up for a night of family fun.

I really like this DVD.  I enjoy the assortment of shows on one disc! I played this before bedtime hoping to create a sleepy environment for the three boys.  I figured that a dvd called sweet dreams should try to make them sleepy.  I suppose it worked because they enjoyed all of the shows and didn't fight too much about going to bed! We really enjoyed watching Roary and Timmy!  We can't wait to see more about them.  This DVD becomes available on May24th and can be purchased here.

Carapelli 100% Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil



Made solely with 100% Italian olive oils, Carapelli 100% Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil has a deep velvety green color and intense, robust flavor and aroma, for an unmistakably Italian experience every time you cook. Perfect for dipping, salads and flavoring entrees or side dishes. Excellent for marinades.

I saw the chef, Nigella Lawson, make the dish below, and it was the first time that I had ever used olive oil.  I have since tweeked the recipe and only use chicken breasts, but I absolutely love this recipe!  So go get yourself a bottle of Carapelli Olive Oil so you can make this dish!!!

Ingredients
  • 1 butterflied chicken (approx. 3 1/2 to 4 lbs)
  • 3 long sprigs fresh rosemary
  • Juice of 1 lemon , with more lemons to serve
  • 1 red onion
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil
  • Maldon or other sea salt
Directions
Put chicken into a large freezer bag. Pull the waxily aromatic needles off two of the sprigs of rosemary and drop them on top.

Cut a lemon in half and squeeze juice into the bag, chucking the rinds in the bag afterwards, too. Pour in olive oil and then tie bag. (Or vacuum seal, if possible.) Give it a good squeeze around the edges before sitting in the refrigerator.

Marinate chicken for a couple of hours, or overnight—even a couple of days.

Preheat oven to 425°. Once chicken is at room temperature, lay chicken (skin side up) along with lemon rinds and onion pieces, on a foil-lined pan. Add remaining sprig of rosemary torn into a few pieces and tuck into leg and breast of chicken.

Cook for 45 minutes. The chicken should now be crisp-skinned and tender within. Take the pan out and cut chicken into four pieces. Arrange on a plate along with onion bits.

Pour over any syrupy golden juices from the pan and sprinkle generously with sea salt. Cut a lemon or two into quarters and scatter these clumpily about the chicken.
 I like to serve this chicken with a side of pasta tossed with some olive oil!
Thank you to Carapelli for my samples used in this review.  My opinions are my own and are honest.

Perfection Fun on the Run Game Review and Giveaway

It’s the compact version of the exciting 60-second shape-matching game, for plenty of on-the-go fun! Pop the 16 shapes in as fast as you can – or out they’ll blast! There’s a built-in timer and a storage compartment! 
 
This timer on this game is actually shorter than the original and is only 30 seconds.  I haven't played perfection since I was a little kid, and I loved it.  I loved the challenge of trying to get all those pieces in. I was excited to see my children try this out and my seven and four year old loved this.  They played it over and over again until, you guessed it, they got them all in there in the time frame!! 
We didn't set the  timer for the two and a half year old, but he had a blast just trying to get all the shapes in.
There is also a few more fun on the run games including CandyLand, BattleShip, Trouble, Guess Who, Hungry Hippos, and Connect Four.  We are planning a trip and I think I will be getting at least two more of these to keep my little ones busy while we are on the road.
Hasbro would like to give one lucky myokcmommy reader a fun on the run game.
