Introducing the Quaker® Chewy® Girl Scouts® Granola Bars + a Family Fun Prize Pack GIVEAWAY (Ends 8/20)

August 13, 2015 by Jenni 516 Comments

Quaker provided me with samples and a family fun kit in exchange for this post/giveaway. However, all opinions of the ooey-gooey goodness are 100% my own, and honest, as always. #QuakerUp

“Hurry up! Get your backpack on….the bus is HERE!”.

Yeah. You catch yourself saying screaming that too?! I like to pride myself in that we’ve got our back to school morning routine in check – and we do most mornings. But, every once in awhile, I’ve lost complete track of time (usually cause I’m on Facebook early, scoping out the latest drama) and we’re scrambling to get ready.

Because I don’t actually COOK breakfast at home in the mornings and little man won’t always eat breakfast at school – I keep a stock of granola bars on hand. Always. Always, always, always! At least he can scarf one of those down in a couple of minutes before he gets on the bus. Oh, yeah, and then I can enjoy one with a nice yummy cup of coffee while I’m having my morning devotional time, too!

 

QKR_BrandFlag_Med

So, Quaker is the bomb (dot) com right?! They always have been, in my book! They’re a household name, loved and trusted. You remember — your grandma probably always had a canister of Old Fashioned Oats sitting in the pantry. I still love me some Old Fashioned Oats, but Quaker has come a LONG and TASTY way since the olden days!

 

quaker-chewy-girl-scout-granola-bars-1

Think Girl Scout Cookies. Yes, please! The yummy worlds collide with the new Quaker® Chewy® Girl Scouts® Granola Bars! That’s right! Quaker has teamed up with the Girl Scouts to make a crazy-good Chewy Granola Bar! They actually sent me a couple boxes to try ——- and O.M.G. Is it sad that I’ve eaten more of them than my kid has?!

 

 

quaker-chewy-granola-bars-2

They sent me the Quaker Chewy Girl Scouts Thin Mints Granola Bars, and the Caramel Coconut variety too (think Samoas!). My mouth was in heaven when I tried them, and I’m fully admitting that I tried both at the same time! What I love about the Quaker granola bars is that they have 8 grams of whole grains in them – so not only are they sweet and yummy, they’re a good source of fiber too!

You can find the Thin Mints variety nationwide and the Caramel Coconut variety will be available at Target and select retailers starting in August — and nationwide in January of 2016!

Shaun the Sheep Movie Poster, in theaters Aug. 5th

Take the Family to See Shaun the Sheep Movie (In Theaters Aug. 5th!) + GIVEAWAY (Ends 8/11)

August 4, 2015 by Jenni 358 Comments

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Lionsgate. I received a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

 

Shaun the Sheep Movie Poster, in theaters Aug. 5th

Shaun the Sheep is “Baaa” – aackk and stirring up more fun and mischief than ever! From the makers of Wallace & Gromit and Chicken Run, this “Claymation” really catches the attention of youngsters and “old”sters alike! Our family has always loved the shows and we can’t wait for the release of the Shaun the Sheep Movie which hits theaters August 5th, nationwide!! We’ll for sure be seeing it, and honestly…I’m not sure who’s more excited – the kiddo, or his daddy!

Little man is in awe of the animation because the characters look so unique in comparison to other cartoons and shows he watches. The clay like characters just come to life and bring so much fun to the screen. It’s fun to watch their adventures together and they really teach important lessons of teamwork, leadership and problem solving skills. Check out the Shaun the Sheep Movie trailer below!

 

Shaun the Sheep Movie:

Shaun and the flock decide that they want to have a fun-filled day off the farm. They wind up in the Big City and little does Shaun know, it’s going to take a lot to get the flock safely back to the greener pastures of the farm! The film is geared towards children ages 4-10 but you mommas and poppas out there will love it too! It’s an all around fun family-friendly movie, rated PG.

 

Meet Timmy, the Toddler of the Flock:

We love Shaun and the entire flock, obviously, but little man and I are in love with sweet little Timmy! He’s the toddler of the flock and he just warms your heart when you see him toting around his cuddly teddy bear. Like any toddler though, Timmy is hard to keep in line and out of trouble! He loves, adores and idolizes Shaun and it’s obvious that Shaun and the rest of the crew love Timmy!

For all Shaun the Sheep Movie clips, videos, news and info, make sure to follow along on social media on their Facebook and Twitter pages! Oh, and use the hashtag #ShauntheSheep

So, Brownberry sent me some coupons to try out some of their bread and I snagged a loaf of the Brownberry Nutty Almond bread. OMGee — it’s SO good! The first thing I did was make a buffalo chicken club sandwich. It was so yum, I can’t even stand it!! Mmm. Mmmm. Mmmmmm.

  • Buffalo Chicken deli lunchmeat (we get shaved)
  • Lettuce leaves
  • sliced tomato
  • 3-4 pieces of bacon, fried till crispy
  • mayo
  • 2 slices Brownberry Bread, Nutty Almond

 

Here’s what you do:

  • Spready mayo on both pieces of bread.

Do you know what this means? PERFECTION – in a tiny bottle!

How to make instant Peanut Butter and Chocolate Iced Coffee:

Because I have a love for everything peanut butter and chocolate, I pushed things to another level and created a delish peanut butter and chocolate iced coffee. Took just another couple of minutes longer – but it was SO worth it!

Peanut Butter and Chocolate Iced Coffee ingredients:

  • Folgers Iced Café Iced Coffee Concentrate: Vanilla Latte or Original Latte
  • Glass of cold milk
  • 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter
  • 1-2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup
  • ice

Instructions:

1. Combine peanut butter and chocolate syrup in a small bowl. Stir in enough milk to thin out the mixture well, making sure the peanut butter is all dissolved. If the peanut butter isn’t dissolved, you’ll end up with chunks of peanut butter in your iced coffee. I’m ok with that, but you might not be.

2. Squeeze (2) squirts of the Vanilla or Original Latte coffee concentrate into a glass of milk, and stir.

3. Pour the peanut butter and chocolate mixture in and stir well.

4. Add ice, and enjoy!

5 steps to make your car smell good in the summer!

Ditch the Stench – 5 Steps to Make Your Car Smell Good This Summer + PERK Giveaway

June 24, 2015 by Jenni 834 Comments

This post brought to you by PERK. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Sweet Pennies From Heaven.

5 steps to make your car smell good in the summer! Summer car cleanliness is NOTHING like winter car cleanliness. Right? In the summer you have stinky sweaty kids and pets on the go, more dirt and heaven help us when the kids don’t throw that milkshake cup away! Imagine THAT stench in 100 degree weather. OMG’ahh! Gag!

There are 5 steps to make your car smell good this summer.

 

1. Get the clothes out of the car!

Do your kids shed their stinky sweaty shirts, socks and shoes in the car on a hot day? I know some who do…and there they lay. For days. A hot car and sweaty clothes are not a good combination! Keep a tote bag or heck, even a small laundry basket in the back for them to put dirty clothes in.

 

5 steps to make your car smell good in the summer!

2. Throw it away

Even if it’s just a small plastic grocery bag! Hang it from the seats so they’re RIGHT there, easy to be seen. Summer time means ice cream in the car, or stops through the drive-through. Hot cars and milkshakes OR fast food, again, NOT a good combination.

3. The beachtowels have GOT to go

Don’t leave wet beach towels and suits in the car. Heat can quickly make the wet clothing sour and THAT is not a lovely smell. AT ALL. Bleck!

4. BAKING SODA

Baking soda is your white powdery friend. USE it. Sprinkle it on your carpets and your seats. Scrub it in with a brush and let it sit overnight, then vacuum up in the morning. It really helps take all the stink away that kids and pets leave!

 

 

5 steps to make your car smell good in the summer!

5. PERK up the smell in your car.

Now that you’ve cleaned out all the yuck, make your car smell nice and fresh with air fresheners for your car. I love PERK cause I love the design. It just clicks onto your sun visor so it’s right above your head and you can always smell it, but it’s up and out of your way! Definitely a cool way to wake up your space!

The PERK Visor Wrap is BRAND new this year in their line of automotive air fresheners. It has the patent-pending StediScent™ technology and it gives consistent fragrance. It lasts 30 days, unlike others that seem to lose their scent within just a few days. Ohh, and these things don’t leak or spill out either! I’ve had a few air fresheners that did that, and it’s so annoying!

 

5 steps to make your car smell good in the summer!

5 steps to make your car smell good in the summer!

It has a really cool design, in that it wraps around your sun visor. It actually just slides on and grips the visor so it won’t slide off. It allows you still be able to use your sun visor to block the sun. I love when my car smells good, so I was happy that we really ended up liking the PERK Visor Wraps. My husband has one in his vehicle too.

You can find them at Walmart, Target, Advance Auto Parts, AutoZone, Meijer, Kroger, Pep Boys, Publix, CVS, and other places auto air fresheners are sold and they come in super fun scents like Golden Vanilla, Caribbean Colada and New Car. Make sure to head to PERK’s Facebook page, and ohh!! Don’t forget your $1 off PERK coupon!

6 Foods women crave once a month!

6 Foods Women Crave and How We Can Fight PMS + Diurex® Giveaway

June 1, 2015 by Jenni 541 Comments

This post brought to you by Diurex Diuretics. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Sweet Pennies From Heaven.

6 Foods women crave once a month! We’re talking about a lady issue today. Those “once a month” food cravings. You know the ones. The ones that start a day or 2 before your “cycle” {inserting an eye roll there} and don’t stop until the day AFTER your cycle is over. Bring on the chocolate, ladies. Because it’s number ONE in our list of cravers below!

But first…I wanted to share some of my tips to battling PMS. It’s an ugly thing, isn’t it ladies?! Our guys see it coming from 10 miles away. I think THEY know when it’s gonna happen before WE do! I always drink more water during the day and I try to get in at least ONE extra hour of sleep a night. I also take Diurex. I have for years. It really helps the bloating and water weight gain issues each month.

Quick tip ladies: If you’re headed out for vacation soon, don’t forget to pack your Diurex ® so you can enjoy your time with family!!! You can even get a coupon at Diurex.com to try it for yourself.

Tips to avoid swollen feet while traveling, including packing Diurex! Benefits Diurex® MAX offers:

  • Each single-caplet dose of DIUREX® MAX Water Caplets contains the maximum strength of a medically recognized diuretic
  • Helps gently provide hour-after-hour relief of monthly water weight gain, bloat, puffiness, swelling, and pressure-related discomforts
  • Gets rid of “blahs” and sluggishness from when you feel bloated and tired each month
  • Helps your clothes fit better – even during your period
  • Caplets dissolve quickly and start to work immediately to provide dependable hour-after-hour relief
  • Specially coated for ease of swallowing.

*Like with everything in your medicine cabinet, please make sure to read and follow all label instructions before using.

Here are 6 of the Major Cravers Women Face Once a Month!

 

1. Chocolate.

Plain and simple. Just chocolate. And any way we can get it, can I get a witness, ladies?! I don’t care if it’s a half opened piece of chocolate candy stuck to the bottom of my purse. I’ll just blow the lint off and go for it. When it’s “that time of the month” — I don’t mess around.

2. French Fries or Potato Chips.

Yep. After I finish my ton truck load of chocolate, I go for the salty stuff. Usually either french fries or potato chips. Any other salty snack mix or foods will usually do in a pinch but I really want the dang french fries and potato chips. Now, here’s the kicker. Usually after I finish the salty snack, I want something sweet again. When I’m in that kinda mood, I just go for something that’s a sweet and salty combo! You too?

3. Milk.

Am I the ONLY one? I crave, crave, crave milk during “that” time of the month. Usually this starts about 2 days before so it’s a good indicator that “Flo” is on her way. And I don’t discriminate – I’m good with regular milk, chocolate milk, ice cream. Check out these Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches. Now, if those don’t tickle your fancy I don’t know what will.

salad

4. Salad.

I know what you’re thinking. Salad isn’t a typical food that someone craves, but alot of women do. During our cycle, our bodies have some excess water weight and sometimes we crave things that our bodies actually need. I love a good salad, don’t you?!

5. Fatty Junk Food.

I could eat an entire pizza myself when it’s that time of the month. I tend to crave the really fatty junk foods, especially burgers from fast food restaurants. Or tacos. Yeah..tacos are good too! Ohh, and chinese food. You see where I’m going with this?

6. Donuts.

How can I forget the donuts?! These. Yess. Yessss times 10!! These could fall into the “chocolate” category above, but again…I don’t discriminate. I’ll take any kind of donut. Glazed, blueberry, custard filled, cream filled, a cinnamon bowtie, raspberry filled, lemon filled. Seeeeee?! No discrimination here!

May 29, 2015 by Jenni 435 Comments

This post brought to you by Quaker Oats. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Sweet Pennies From Heaven.

Keep Playing Summer Fun Playdate with Quaker Chewy Granola Bars Today marks the last day of school and we’re ready for our summer break! We have big plans on tons of splash time in the pool and playdates with the kids in the neighborhood. We actually got together for a playdate last weekend with the cousins and celebrated little man’s birthday. They had such a great time. They played with some goodies that Quaker sent us, including their Quaker® Chewy® Granola Bars…in honor of their Keep Playing! With Chewy contest and then the kiddos ended the evening on the trampoline!

I’ve learned to pack easy snacks and drinks outside with us so we don’t have to run in and out all day. Quaker Chewy is a perfect and hassle-free snack! The kiddos stopped long enough to get fueled up themselves so they could Keep Playing! We’ve always been fans of Quaker products…since I was a kid myself. Did you know that every Quaker Chewy Granola Bar contains 8 grams of whole grains?! That’s a great way to make sure kiddos are getting their whole grains AND they come in fun flavors like Chocolate Chip, S’mores and Oatmeal Raisin!

NIOXIN Hair Care System

Nioxin Hair Care 30 Day Challenge and Giveaway #NIOXINChallenge

March 18, 2015 by Jenni 694 Comments

I participated in the NIOXIN Challenge blog program as a member of One2One Network. I received free product and compensation but all opinions are my own.

NIOXIN Hair Care System

All of my life I’ve had thin and really fine hair. I have always struggled with getting curls to stay in or when I style my hair, it just flops after a couple of hours. I remember my mom jumping on me for using rubber bands as ponytail holders cause she said it would break my hair off. They were perfect ponytail holders for me though, because just about anything else would end up loosening and sliding off.

I found out about the NIOXIN Hair System Kits and jumped at the chance to review one. I had heard rave reviews so I really wanted to try it out. I was asked to do the NIOXIN 30 Day Challenge and then share my experience. NIOXIN has 6 different hair system kits and I chose system 3 for normal to thin-looking hair with color treatment (yes, I color my hair!). Each kit includes an easy 3 step daily regimen including shampoo, conditioner and a treatment.

 

nioxin-before-after(Both photos are without styling. Just air dried after washing.)

My experience…

The first thing I noticed when starting the 30 day challenge was the tingling and refreshing sensation on my scalp. Other than that, I didn’t really notice a big difference that first week in my hair. Then by the middle of the 2nd week, I started noticing that my hair was much easier to fix and that my hairstyle would last longer than usual. It just felt fuller as I would curl or straighten my hair.

By the end of the 30 day challenge, my husband even noticed a difference just by looking at my hair. He knew that I had a new product in the shower (which I dared him to use, haha!) but he usually doesn’t pay much attention. He’s used to it being flat as a pancake and he came home from work one day and asked if I’d been to my “hair guy”. HA! Overall, my hair feels much fuller. I’m very pleased with NIOXIN and will continue using it!

Buzz Lightyear to Star Command – Halloween Express Review and Giveaway! #HalloWin

September 24, 2014 by Jenni 1,803 Comments

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Halloween Express. All opinions, and our love for Toy Story and Buzz Lightyear are our own! #HalloWin

buzz come in star command costume

Buzz Lightyear to Star Command, Come in Star Command!

Have you and the kids decided what everyone is gonna be for Halloween yet? I know it’s early but folks, the leaves are changing colors already and I have pumpkin and spice scents in all my candle warmers. Fall is here and Halloween is just right around the corner! Little man was Sheriff Woody last year and this year, he wants to be Buzz Lightyear!! So, Buzz Lightyear he will be! We’re keeping Toy Story alive around here!

 

buzz-lightyear-costume

 

halloween-express-logo

I don’t like taking Eli shopping in the Halloween stores because most of them aren’t so “family friendly” if you want my personal opinion. They can be pretty scary too, for a little kid. This year we opted to just shop from the comfort of our PJ’s – at home on the computer – from Halloween Express. The name says it all! They have tons of costumes for the whole family…kids, adults, pets and then of course they have all the awesome party supplies and decorations too! Plus, all the extra accessories like wigs, gloves, hats, masks, etc.

The Halloween Express website is so easy to navigate and search to find the perfect costume, and they have it all, including your favorite Disney characters and super heros. They have plenty of creepy and scary costumes too. If you’re leary of ordering your costumes online, don’t worry! They have an awesome sizing chart to help you figure out what size will be the right fit. If you’re not sure, I always recommend going up a size just so that wearing a layer of clothes underneath will be comfy.

 

buzz-lightyear-costume-eli-slide

He adores his Buzz Lightyear costume! It fits perfectly, with a little extra room so he’ll for sure be able to wear it through the year too when playing, and going to well, you know – Infinity and Beyond! He had no problems going down the slide, although we thought for a minute that Buzz’s jetpack might not fit through, thank goodness it’s inflatable!!

 

halloween express costumesFun character costumes

 

Things I love about Halloween Express:

  • The massive selection of costumes, accessories, party supplies and home decor.
  • The super FAST shipping! His costume arrived even BEFORE it was supposed to!
  • The costumes are superior quality.
  • Prices are usually cheaper than most other places because they’re always offering discount codes!

 

Halloween Express Discounts

I have some awesome discount codes for you to use at Halloween Express. Both are valid through Oct. 20th and only one code can be used per purchase. Use code: FSMCID2014ZLA to score free shipping on your order. Or use code: MCI2014D to get 15% off your order (no minimums! Woot!).

Regular free shipping offer: Just an FYI. Halloween Express automatically offers free economy shipping on orders of $65 or more with no code needed. So figure out which code will be worth the most according to your cart order.
