Posh Party Box New Years giveaway! CLOSED (Christmas Gift Guide)


With the season picking up and time running out, it is always nice to get a little help. With friends and family in town many of us may be considering a holiday party, so I would like to lead you right direction. I became familiar with "Posh Party Box" this year when they sent me a wonderful Princess Party box for my daughters birthday. The party box included everything I would need to throw a party and games to entertain everyone. Also included was a princess kit to add to my daughters dress up collection.



As you look through all the boxes "Posh Party Box" carries, you will notice more than just party boxes, you will also find great gift boxes and gift ideas. There is something for everyone and every age. One gift box I loved was the "Christmas Cookie Baking Set For One". This would be great for children and grandchildren. I can also assure you that each box is sent presentable in a large white box with a beautiful ribbon.

One lucky reader will win the New Years Party Box for 4!

Bei Bambini review and huge giveaway!!! CLOSED


Some of my favorite things to shop for is clothing, especially childrens clothing. I was recently contacted by a children's clothing boutique, Bei Bambini. Bei Bambini is an exclusive retail store for Jeanine Johnsen clothing. At Bei Bambini you can find Jeanine Johnsen's past and current children collections. Jeanine's style is full of classly simple and patterned attire. I find it very adorable.


Bei Bambini is an online store only. Even as a strictly online store, Bei bambini enjoys providind their costumers with coupon code deals, weekly specials and discounts.

Review:

Bei Bambini offered me a choice of any item free to review. Since Christmas is coming up, I wanted to find something to fit the season. I loved all the dresses Bei Bambini carried. Many of the winter dresses reminded me of the picture perfect little girls dress with ruffles, buttons and bows. I had to go with the Kayla Corduroy Dress though. I feel in love with it right away and imagined how cute it would look with black boots and a big black or red bow!

The dress is adorable. I love the simple style and the perfect girly design that was used. Although my daughter does normally wear a 2T the dress did run a little shorter than most dresses she owns. I maybe would recommend ordering a size larger with this dress. I still kept the dress though because it looks great with black leggings. I was very happy with it. I also learned that you can get size information on any specific products by simply clicking the "ask a question about this product" link on the product page. It is nice to know that Bei Bambini is willing to work with each customer to provide them with what they want and need.

Discount:
Bei Bambini is offering all "Catch the Drift..." readers a 30% coupon code.
Code: BBVIP30
You can also receive more HUGE deals and discounts during this month if you join Bei Bambini's mailing list.

Giveaway:

Kernel Seasons Review (Christmas Gift Guide)



Kernel Season's began in the college dorm room of Brian Taylor at the University of Michigan. He said, "I made popcorn every night and created my own personal spice blends to toss into it. Friends and fellow students loved it. People came knocking on the door asking for the special seasonings. I contacted a team of flavor experts with over 50 years of experience to help perfect the seasonings. We tweaked the flavors for over two years until they were just right."

I was very excited when Kernel Season's agreed to have me review their products. My husband and I are huge popcorn lovers and I was very interested to see how Kernal Season's would change the taste of our popcorn. I have always been a fan of flavored popcorn, however my husband is not. I knew my husband would very hard to please.

Review:
Kernal Seasons sent an assortment of popcorn flavors , a 1 lb. Popcorn Pouch of raw popcorn kernels and the new butter flavored Popcorn Spritzer all free to try out. All popcorn flavors are all natural, low fat and low calorie, which is always a plus. The Popcorn Spritzer is used to help the popcorn seasoning stick to air popped popcorn. It works great.




I have loved testing the popcorn flavors out. Although I have enjoyed them all, I do have my favorites. I am a cheese person, so it is no surprise that the "White Cheddar" and "Nacho Cheddar" are my favorites. I also love to mix these with a bit of the "Butter Seasoning". There is a flavor that everyone will love. As for my husband, I was a little worried what he would say. Surprisingly he too has enjoyed trying out the variety of flavors. He maybe doesn't like to load on the seasonings as much as I do, but he does agree it adds to the flavor. Since he is more of a salty person he prefers the "Butter" and "Sour Cream and Onion". He would probably also love the "Salt", but since we weren't provided with that as a sample, we will have to go get it ourselves at a local store. I am very excited to test it out.

Where to purchase:
You can find Kernel Season's at several local grocery and retail stores. In fact, the other day I saw them at "Bed Bath and Beyond". You can also purchase their products online at KernelSeasons.com .

If you choose to purchase any of Kernel Season's products, I recommend you go to their website to find a selection of recipes for each flavoring. You will also find that these Kernel Season's flavors can be used on just more than popcorn. Yet again, another plus since you can find multiple uses for these. Also check out the current discounts and deals they have available online!

Why did I choose Kernel Season's for this year Christmas Guide?
I am always looking for unique gifts. I though the Kernel Season's flavors would make an excellent neighbor gift. Just purchase an assortment of flavors or a handful of your favorite and some packs of microwave popcorn. From there just take one pouch of popcorn and one flavor, wrap a cute ribbon and attach a tag to it. This makes a fairly cheap and unique gift! If you have a good friend who love's popcorn, you may want to consider purchasing them a large section of flavors to test out.
