I’m a Superior Source Vitamins Brand Ambassador

I’m a Superior Source Brand Ambassador.  I received products and compensation, however all words and opinions are 100% my own.  I am not a doctor and make no health or diagnosis claims.

I’ve been taking B12 in vitamin format for about 6 years now.  My doctor at the time gave me a B12 injection when she noticed my numbers were low, and it gave me so much extra energy that I decided to keep taking it.  I’ve always taken the sublingual version; it’s just so much more convenient than swallowing a pill.

So when Superior Source approached me about partnering with them as a Brand Ambassador, I thought it was a great fit.  They’ve been providing MicroLingual vitamins and supplements for over 40 years.  Even smaller than a sublingual option, MicroLingual tablets are soft molded instant release tablets that are held under the tongue.  And when I say smaller – I mean a lot smaller.  These tiny tablets are approximately 1/10 the size and weight of an equivalent standard swallowed tablet.

Classic Fish and Chips with Gorton’s #WickedGoodSeafood

Thank you to Gorton’s for providing a product pack that let us serve up classic fish and chips.

Growing up in Maine I had the good fortune to be exposed to lots of seafood.  Much of it was fresh off the boat – literally.  You’d watch the fishermen unload their boats behind the restaurant and a few minutes later it would arrive on your plate.  And if you’re talking lobster, you could even go and choose the exact one you wanted.

It’s a little harder to get that fresh seafood here in Kentucky.  So when we’re craving something from the sea, we usually turn to Gorton’s.  They’ve been providing quality fish to homes all across the US and Canada since 1849.  The little tag “Trust the Gorton’s Fisherman” is easy to do when you’re talking about a company that’s been around for over 160 years.

Gorton’s now has everything from fish sticks to grilled salmon to shrimp scampi.  There isn’t a single product they offer that I’ve tried that I haven’t liked.  I have yet to try the tilapia fish sticks, but they’re definitely next on my list.

Gorton's Seafood Halloween Fish Stick Graveyard #WickedGoodSeafood

Their seafood products are great served as-is, but if you like to get a little fancy, you can use them as a base in a variety of recipes.  One of the recipes that caught my eye was for the Halloween Fish Stick Graveyard.  This would be so fun for dinner on Halloween night – and it has ingredients my daughter will actually eat.

Disney’s The Little Mermaid Diamond Edition Blu-ray Combo Pack

I received a copy of The Little Mermaid Diamond Edition in order to facilitate my review.  All words and opinions are my own.

The Little Mermaid has been on my Top 5 Disney movie list pretty much all my life.  I can almost quote the entire thing, and I can definitely sing every word to every song.  You have to love whosits and whatsits.  Plus I could listen to Jodi Benson’s voice all day long.

I really thought it would be a movie that Bubbles would enjoy, too, but up until recently my only copy was an old VHS.  Crazy, I know.  But when we received The Little Mermaid Diamond Edition Blu-ray Combo pack and I was finally able to introduce her to the magic of mermaids and love at first sight (or speak, in this case).  Turns out I was also introducing my husband to the movie.  I could not believe that he had not seen The Little Mermaid, especially because he never mentioned anything when we watched the stage show at Hollywood Studios in Disney World.

While I do love Ariel, I have to say my favorite character is probably Sebastian.  I love that little crab.  He cares about Ariel so much and tries so hard to keep her out of trouble.  And when she finds herself in a pickle despite his efforts, then he jumps in with both claws to help her in any way he can – even if he’s at risk of the wrath of King Triton.

Mini Chicken Chimichangas Appetizer Recipe

I was able to create a new Mini Chicken Chimichangas appetizer recipe using Kraft Fresh Take as part of a sponsored post for Collective Bias.  All words and opinions are my own.

I love experimenting in the kitchen.  At least a few times per week you can find me in the kitchen trying completely new recipes I find on Pinterest, duplicating something delicious I tried at a party, or giving our family favorites a little twist.

We frequently went out for Mexican food when we lived in Florida, but those restaurants don’t abound quite as much in Kentucky.  Because we missed those foods I started trying my hand at different entrees that we had regularly ordered: quesadillas, enchiladas, churros, chimichangas and more.  The chimichangas turned out particularly well and earned a regular place in our monthly meal rotation.

Mini Chimichanga Appetizer Recipe Using Kraft Fresh Take Kits #FreshTake #shop

Recently while shopping at Walmart I noticed the Kraft Fresh Take kits in the cheese section.  We’ve used them in the past to change up our baked chicken or pork chops, but that day I had chimichangas on the brain.  It made me look at the packaging a little differently, wondering if I could use it to spice up our Mexican night.
