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.

Hasbro Toys reviews and giveaway! (Christmas Guide)

Hasbro brings you and your family several products that will bring smiles to your faces. They have games to bring you closer together and toys to educate and entertain your children. As you look through Hasbro's site you will find several toys you loved growing up, which you can share with your children. I appreciate the fact that Hasbro not only keeps the classic toys around, but they are also coming out with new and improved toys.

Hasbro offered me to review any toy of my choice free. They were very helpful as they guided me to toys that would fit my children's ages and which were top sellers. I went with a few toys they recommended and was pleased with their helpful insight and their communication. Know that I have worked with them personally with this gift guide, I have even more confidence in Hasbro as a company.

My children and I reviewed the following toys:


"MR. POTATO HEAD FRYER FIGHTER" (Approx Retail Price: $9.99 each)-
Fryer Fighter is one of the MR. POTATOE HEADs newest additions. This is one of those classic toys that will be around for a long time. Surprisingly, I never grew up with a MR. POTATOE HEAD so I was really excited to finally see what all the fuss was about. My youngest who is 2, loves to put piece the MR. POTATOE HEAD together. My son who is 4 also enjoys joining in on the fun. He constantly ask for more pieces so that he can create new faces. With it being such a reasonable price for extra assortments, I feel it is worth adding to. I also fell purchasing a second Mr. Potatoe head well worth it. This is a toy that can really help develop your childs imagination.

KOTA & PALS Stompers DINOSAURS (Approx. Retail Price: $24.99)-
Knowing how big dinosaurs are with little boys I had to select the Kota & Pals Stompers Dinosaurs. I have actually been eyeing these dinos for some time and have seen them at several retail stores.
KOTA & PALS stompers was a hit. My son loves how the dinosaur becomes alive as it walks and roars. The triceratops, which we received, has become my sons little buddy. He constantly brings him in our car and talks to the triceratops as we travel. Now that we have a little dinosaur living in our home, my son loves learning more about dinosaurs, what they eat and where they cam from. This has become a great opportunity to teach him.

PLAY-DOH BURGER BUILDER (Approx. Retail Price: $14.99)-
Both my children love PLAY-DOH. They also both love hamburgers and enjoy helping me in the kitchen. I was pretty sure they would be huge fans of this newest PLAY-DOH accessory. Of course they were.
This has become a toy we pull out everyday. With the weather getting cold it is hard to stay entertained in doors for long. I am happy to say that the PLAY-DOH BURGER BUILDER has made this much easier. My children can sit and play with it for about an hour or more. I am then able to get things done or enjoy pretending with them as they make their hamburgers and potatoe chips.
"The PLAY-DOE BURGER BUILDER includes interchangeable parts for making tomatoes, lettuce, buns, and more. In addition, kids can crank out pretend potato or pickle chips with the exciting TWIST-A-CHIP Super Tool. Set also includes five 2-ounce cans of colorful PLAY-DOH compound. "

To Buy:
Each of these and other Hasbro toys can be found at most major toy retailers nationwide and on HasbroToyShop.com.

One reader will win a Dino Roars Stomper.

Hasbro Games review and giveaway (Christmas Gift Guide) CLOSED

The holidays always seems to bring family and friends closer together. But why not find ways to strenghen those relationships all year long? This is why I recommend giving the gift of "quality time" to your loved ones this year, and what better way then selecting the perfect game you all can enjoy. To help you find that perfect game, I contacted Hasbro Games and asked them to share with me their top games for this years gift list. Not only did they send me a large list with a variety of types of games for all ages, but they also offered to send me some games of my own to try out for free.

I used their recommendations for a great family game and an adult game. I was sent "PICTUREKA! FLIPPER" and "THE GAME OF THINGS".




Review:
"PICTUREKA! FLIPPER" is the perfect game for a family with children of all ages (6 and up). Although my son is a little younger than the recommended age he loved it. It really challenged him and brought out the competitiveness in my husband and I. We all were able to enjoy it together and found it very entertaining. Both my son and youngest thought it humorous how the penguin would flip the cards out and squawk.

As for a game made for the adults, I highly recommend "The Game Of Things". My husband and I played this game with our neighbors and then again with my side of the family. Everyone really seemed to enjoy it. This game is a great way to break the ice and find out who people really are. This isn't really a serious game, but is guaranteed to bring lots of laughs.

If you are interested in Hasbro and the game they have to offer, you can go to their official site and look under games. Here you also can search through different types of games and what is recommended for which ages. Hasbro Games can be found at almost any store locally. If you have a particular game you are looking for, you can go to the website, select the game and the site will bring up some other sites that carry that particular game.

Giveaway:
One person win "The Game Of Things" to enjoy with their family and friends this Christmas.

How to Enter:
Visit Hasbro Games and look around their site. Come back and tell me a game you and/or your children would enjoy.
