Get Ready for Tailgating with Rite Aid and Unilever

Oct 192013

This post on getting ready for tailgating is sponsored by Global Influence. All words and thoughts are my own.

I have mentioned a time or twelve that we are pretty serious NCAA® sports fans around here. We love sports in general, really, but I’ve always felt there’s something special about collegiate sports. We try not to miss any opportunity to get together for some tailgating. Family, food, and friendly rivalries – we usually have it all.

If you’re a fan, also, then you’re probably also a fan of getting together with friends and family to support your favorite teams. Even those that aren’t necessarily “into” collegiate sports probably find themselves enjoying the atmosphere at the games or when tailgating at home or a friend’s house.

Rite Aid would like to help the men in your lives look (and smell!) their best while cheering. So between now and October 26th, head into your local Rite Aid and get an automatic $5 on your UP+ Rewards for your next visit when you purchase $15 of Degree™ Men, Dove® Men+Care™, or AXE® products.

Weekly Entertainment Roundup: Kids Movies

Lots of great kids movies (and some for adults, too!) in this week’s weekly entertainment roundup. I have to say, the announcement of Second Screen Live for The Nightmare Before Christmas has us strongly considering a quick road trip to Tennessee. It’s one of my favorite movies from when I was in high school and I think it would be cool to see it in conjunction with that technology.

Thank you to Global Influence for sponsoring this post and to Hershey’s for providing product samples so that I could create this molasses cookie recipe for you. All words and thoughts are my own.

One of my favorite parts of any holiday is having an excuse to bake. I really don’t need an excuse, of course; I bake on a pretty regular basis. But when it comes to holiday treats, you tend to go the extra step and make them a little more special than at other times.

Christmas is an obvious time of year to get a little fancy with your cooking, but I have to admit that Halloween has always been the one other holiday where I tend to go all-out. Growing up we had a party at my grandparents’ house each Halloween, and my Gram would bake for two days straight to prep. There were frosted chocolate brownies with jack-o’-lantern faces drawn on, sugar cookies with Halloween-themed words piped on, apple cider, dishes full of Hershey’s candy, and then the icing on the cake: homemade chocolate and vanilla doughnuts fried fresh as you waited.

Combating Underarm Irritation with Dove Clear Tone

Beauty No Responses »

Oct 172013

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Dove. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item as a thank-you for participating in this post on underarm irritation.

Deodorant is one of those things that it takes awhile to find the perfect one, much like finding the perfect shade of lipstick or foundation. You just have to keep trying them until you stumble across the right one for your body chemistry and activity needs. I know that between junior high and high school, I probably tried every brand, formulation, and scent that was on the market.

And then I found Dove, and my days of searching were over. Seriously, I’ve been using Dove deodorant exclusively for at least a decade. For me, I haven’t found another deodorant that goes on as smoothly, keeps me dry and does as much to help nourish my skin as Dove does.
