VH "Excite Your Dinner" Blog Tour! (+ Giveaway for Canadians!)

Disclosure – I am participating in the VH Excite Your Dinner blog tour by enCompass Media on behalf of Con Agra Foods. I received compensation as a thank you for participating and for sharing my honest opinion.

Well, here we are in 2013... the holiday season coming to an end.  It was another excellent Christmas and New Years for me, I love this time of year a lot!  One of our Christmas traditions is a big pot luck dinner party with my mom's side of the family on the Saturday before Christmas.  I was fortunate enough to have some VH Sauce and some new recipes to try, providing me the opportunity to bring a delicious, and very simple, appetizer for the dinner!

I'm not a cook, Mr. Lock is the resident chef around this condo.  So, I prefer an easy-to-assemble dish whenever possible!  I love VH Sweet Thai Chili sauce, so I chose to make this easy appetizer - Grilled Sweet Chili Flatbreads.  They were a huge hit!

I made a few small changes to the recipe, substituting feta for the called-for goat cheese (personal preference), and using the broiler on my stove rather than a sandwich press or grill (because I don't have one), but it was so easy to adapt this delicious recipe that way, and the Sweet Thai Chili Sauce was the star anyway!  This really inspired me to explore the VHSauces.ca website, and the VH Facebook page which has lots of great tips for adding a fun twist to your everyday meals.

One lucky Canadian reader has a chance to win their own VH Sauce prize pack!  From now until 12:01 am on January 13th, 2012 you can enter on the Rafflecopter widget below.  You will need to take a look at VH Sauce Recipes for the mandatory entry.  Good luck!

"Cinderella" on Disney Blu-ray Diamond Edition Combo Pack

When I was a little girl I loved all of the Disney princess movies.  I had only one younger brother at that point in my life, and on rainy days I remember going to select a Disney movie and having my mother reprimand me because I had to be FAIR to Miles and choose something other than "the girly Disneys" now and then!

Well, one of my top three favourite Disney films to try to pressure my brother in to watching whenever I could was Cinderella.  It is so exciting that as of today it has been released from the Disney fault, and is available on Disney Blu-ray Diamond Edition Combo Pack!  I was fortunate enough to relive this amazing film at a screening event last week, and it was just as magical as I remembered!

We were treated like Princesses!  Sparkling wine!

Delicious cupcakes to enjoy while watching the film!  These were HUGE and so yummy!

Also, did you know that Christian Louboutin designed a special edition "glass slipper" in honour of this DVD release?  He only made 20 of these amazing shoes, and one pair was given away to a very lucky Toronto resident at the screening event last week!

I am so glad to have the opportunity to be YOUR Fairy Godmother... you can win your own copy of Disney's Cinderella by entering the giveaway on the Rafflecopter form below!  I have one Diamond Edition Combo Pack to give away, and the contest closes at 12:01 am this Friday - October 5th! a Rafflecopter giveaway

Here's a synopsis for Celtic Run:

Jake, a 14-year-old gadget whiz, didn’t plan on a summer full of treasure, thieves, and danger. He just got lucky.

While in Ireland on a class trip, Jake stumbles upon the first clue to a treasure missing from the Spanish Armada. Jake sees the riches as his chance to buy back the family sailboat and restore a piece of the life he enjoyed before his father was critically injured in an accident. Desperate to find the treasure, Jake teams up with Zach, his nemesis and class bully, and two girls in a clue-hunting chase across the Dingle Peninsula.



Dodging would-be thieves, exchanging wisecracks with Zach, and concocting ingenious devices to get them out of scrapes, Jake leads the team as they connect piece after piece to the more than 400-year-old mystery.

• gluten free, nut free, dairy free

The 1st Birthday Bash continues on! MORE to giveaway, through Busy Mom on the Go!

From Busy Mom on the Go:


Are you having fun at the Birthday Bash Party Event yet? Today, I am reviewing Funny Honey Frames! The name alone tells you there is something special about these frames! I marveled at the charming details with the one-of-a-kind, personalized photo mattes that Andrea creates at Funny Honey Frames. I had to look at the customized matte about 3 times before I actually saw all of the details that she put into the special one created for Emily.

With Funny Honey Frames you let Andrea know what color scheme you’re interested in, the name of the person that the frame should be customized for (in this case Emily) and then the font type for the name. And then Funny Honey Frames will handle the rest! As a busy mom on the go (BMotG) I enjoy the attention to detail in these frames. I have never seen anything like it. Each matte is personalized out of high quality cardstock and then decorated according to your needs.

 

The picture below is the one that Andrea created for Emily’s 1^st Birthday party! I love the girly font and the sparkly paper backing her name, along with the cupcake below the 4x6 photo. These are all details that coordinate very well together. This matte fits into any 8x10 frame perfectly. However, I recommend buying the complete set through Funny Honey Fames for two reasons. First, if you’re busy like me and don't have a spare 8x10 photo frame then adding that to the list of errands is silly when Funny Honey Frames offers matching white frames for any of their mattes. Second, the price is right! Funny Honey Frames offers their personalized photo mattes and matching frames at an affordable price delivered right to your door. And for BMotG readers you can get 10% off your order using code: BUSYMOM

And now for the giveaway!! Do you want to win one of these amazing personalized photo mattes? Starting today through 5/2 at 11:59 EST you can enter using the Rafflecopter form below. This giveaway is for 1 photo matte with the option to purchase the matching photo frame. Must be 18+ to enter, open to US residents only.

The "Busy Mom on the Go" 1st Birthday Bash Continues! Here's another great giveaway!

Post from "Busy Mom on the Go"!
I was very excited when I saw the creative hats at My Kayla Rose's Etsy Boutique. Bonnie's designs are so fun and playful that I really wanted to incorporate one of them into Emily's birthday party! I chose the zebra print with the hot pink feather boa detail around the base and on the top. I think this hat is a wonderfully girly design that brings a small amount of flashiness to the party.
 

So far, Emily has been exceptionally interested in the hat, just not on her head! She had so much fun playing the game of pulling the hat off of her head that I could not help, but snap pictures in between laughing at how much fun she was having!! I can just imagine when she gets older and wants to play dress-up how much fun she will have with this hat added to her dress-up collection. Bonnie at My Kayla Rose offers a nice variety of hats for any celebration including Mini Mouse hats too (adorable!). The material she used to make the zebra hat for Emily is a very soft fabric and she tied a pretty pink ribbon, that if Emily's willing, I could tie into a pretty bow to keep the hat in place. And for Busy Mom on the Go readers Bonnie has generously offered a 10% off coupon code to her store using code: Kayla.

The "Busy Mom on the Go Birthday Bash" Continues with Giveaway Number Two!

Traditional cupcake wrappers will long be forgotten after you see the adorable designs at That's A Wrap. 

From Busy Mom on the Go: "As I was putting together the details of Emily's cupcake themed birthday party I came across these cupcake wrappers and instantly I knew they would bring another element to the party that guests would not expect! I love all of the different patterns you can choose from. At That's A Wrap you will find a lot more than just cupcake wrappers, you'll find an entire collection of party must-haves. A few of my favorites include the cupcake kits that coordinate both the wrappers and toppers, the party favor boxes and these very cute favor tags."

That’s A Wrap is offering Busy Mom on the Go readers with a special discount code so you can start shopping today for your child’s next birthday party! For 20% off use code: busymoms.
