Just like Nonni made them! Nonnis Biscotti - Review


In college, I made one of my best friends...
Well, the best friends I have now, all came from my college years...
Those were the best of times!
But, I am talking about one in particular here...

His name is Matt and I can remember the two of us sitting around talking about our grandmothers...
I called mine, Nana and he called his, Nonni.
Nonni is an Italian term...

I had not given much thought about that until the other day.
I was sent biscotti for us to review.
The brand? Nonni's Biscotti!
Talk about memories flooding back!

Thinking about Matt and his Nonni, I set in to try these out.
Now, let me tell you, my mom enjoys biscotti, but I have never really cared for it.
I see now that I was eating the wrong kind!!!
Broxton immediatly wanted to try the Caramel Milk Chocolate Biscotti Bites.
OH MY!
They were wonderful!
I admit, we planned to just eat one, but they were too good to put up...
So, Marc, Broxton and I each had a couple.

We eventually tried all of them.
I see now that it isn't the biscotti that I never cared for, it was the dark chocolate ones!
I thought for sure that I would be in heaven with the Decadence and Cioccolati ones.
Nope, they ended up being my least favorite.
No worries, they are not going to go to waste, but they aren't the ones that I will be buying again.
The Turtle Pecan were absolutely amazing!!!!
Like seriously, delicious!!!!
( I am not sharing these bad boys!)

Nonnis Biscotti not only comes in the traditional biscotti, they now offer them as biscotti bites.
I enjoyed the size of those, as they were perfect for Broxton to munch on...
I want to try the Almond ones!!!
Please follow Nonni's Biscotti on Facebook and Twitter.
That way you can be ready when they have a new giveaway!

PowerMat - Review and Giveaway

Image
Please let me go ahead and just say... I think/KNOW that the PowerMat will be one of the HOTTEST items this year! Have you heard of this? I mean, seriously! This is Awesome and I am using that since I can not think of any other way to explain it... (Are there really words that would explain something this cool?!) Okay, let me just cut to the heart of it... The PowerMat is just that... A MAT full of POWER! It is a little bit longer than an average book... Thinner than a cell phone. It looks like a skateboard (in my opinion.) and it charges 3 different technological gadgets at once! Do you know what that means? You NO LONGER need 3 cords, no more messy tangles... Just one cord to plug the mat in and you are done!!!! I was sent the PowerMat for review and I am so very impressed! The PowerMat can charge 3 different items... Marc and I have blackberries... (They can now BOTH charge on here AT THE SAME TIME!) We also have several IPods ... The docking station for the IPod can charge my

Fire Fly Toothbrushes - #giveaway

Image
Is it a hassle to get your younger kids to brush their teeth? Broxton loves it and asks throughout the day if he can go and brush his... Now that he has a new toothbrush!!! We were sent a couple toothbrushes from Fire Fly Toothbrushes and I just love the concept! With Fire Fly, they light up! You just press the button and they light up for a solid minute. What we do here is a little system. First, Broxton brushes his teeth for the first minute. (just a teeny bit of toothpaste) Then, I brush the next minute (once again, minimal toothpaste.) Finally, he gets to brush them a final minute (no toothpaste.) The system is working and his teeth are clean! During the day, when he wants to brush them.. He can, but with no toothpaste. He really just likes the way it lights up. Doesn't hurt that the toothbrush is a hot wheels car!!! He also has one to leave at my parents house.. It is a snoopy one and lights up blue! Talk about a cool item to show the grandparents!!! Not only c

Momma Must Have - Exergen Temporal Thermometer- Review and Giveaway

Image
As we all know, it can sometimes be a bit difficult to take the temperature of a sick child. Hey, some adults are known to be big babies... The longer they have to wait, the fussier they become. Well, with the Exergen Temporal Scanner ... Wait is something that can be eliminated! Why do I say that? Just because the wait is merely 2 seconds! During that time, you will already be finished a gift giveaway blog hop, exergen temporal scanner, mom must have, R nd moving on to something else. I really like the ease of the Exergen Thermometer. It has a soft tip on it that you gently swipe across the forehead of your "patient." There are two things that make this stand out compared to others that I have used. One - If you are sweating, you can place it behind your ear to get your temperature. Two - There is a light on both sides to show you that it is on. I like that, as I sometimes worry if it is on or not... You know how I can be! First, remove the protective cap... Turn it on...
