Jumpin-Beans

With my name being Noelle, you know people comment about this being my time of year.  Actually, we were recently talking about making cookies and what not and I admitted that I was not a baker. They then threw out "with a festive name like Noelle, you need to bake, especially during the holidays!"  Thanks to Trudeau, I will be baking with the kids this season! Have you seen all the goodies they have?  Perfect for many people on your list!    FTC Compliant Review Policy:   The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency  for the sole purpose of product testing.

School is in full swing here.  Lunches are packed.  Homework is completed.  Here is the thing... Broxton is not a huge fan of "sandwiches" for lunch...  He says they don't taste the same as they do at home.  We try different food idea's but it gets old (at least to me) after a while of the same things. He has decided he likes Peanut Butter sandwiches, but with classmate having severe allergies to nuts, I am not about to put anyone in danger!  We save those for home!  Broxton does love salads for lunch from time to time, but I have realized most of Broxton's lunch time is spent socializing since they can't talk and what not during the day.  (He is a social butterfly, no denying that! Gets it from me, I know!!!) We were lucky to get a new lunch lineup of items to review.  I was excited because that meant that Marc could take his lunch in nicer looking containers.  Then, Broxton saw it all and I knew it was over.  He has already plann...

Is it hot where you are at?  The temperatures keep climbing here, so that means more time to BBQ!!!  I have worked with Trudeau in the past, so when I saw these cool products, I wanted to share with you!  Out of the ones listed below, I think we would be most likely to use the Oven and Grill gloves. That would actually be amazing for our traditional low country boil!!!   Oven and Grill Gloves Get your grill on! Perfect for kitchen, barbeque, fire pits and handling hot surfaces around the house.  A safety necessity when either grilling or baking, these gloves have anti-slip silicone grips on both sides. The gloves offers wrist and forearm protection and allows for maximum dexterity.  Flame-resistant (up to 428 °F) exterior fibers protect while holding grill tools over open flame or pulling hot pans out of the oven. $39.99 DNA Hydration Double Wall Beverage Bottle For anyone looking to stay hydrated in the heat or during physical activity, ...

Do you have someone on your Fathers Day shopping list that is hard to buy for? I know with my list it is pretty much just get what I think would be a hit and hope that they don't already have it ! When I saw the new (to me) products from Trudeau's Fuel line, I knew I had a hit.  I thought at first I would be using it for a "back to school" idea, but when my husband saw me taking it out of the box, he was oohing and ahhing over it for him.  (He takes his lunch with him to work each day, so this ended up being a great Fathers Day gift that he will be unwrapping soon enough!)

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation . Trudeau has so many cool gadgets, you could really make the most memorable day ever using their different products.  I want the egg ring that is shaped like a heart. I know Broxton would be so excited to see breakfast like that one morning. For those creative and romantic, I wanted to share with you what you could purchase to make Valentines so memorable. Start with breakfast in bed... eggs and pancakes shaped like hearts!!!!   Get the day started with a jolt using your bedside espresso maker!  After that, have a great day at work.  Go enjoy dinner out and then come home to settle in.  Have dessert at home with your new fondu pot (or make heart shaped candies) and finish it off with a nice bottl...

Opinions expressed are my own and are NOT influenced by monetary compensation . Can you believe that Valentines Day is almost here?  Seriously, I know that the days of the year don't change (nor do the hours and minutes in a day)... but good grief, it seems like time is flying by. Maybe because we are so busy that it seems that way?  I am not sure... Anyways, you always hear about "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach" and other sayings like that...   Also, you hear about "love languages"  so my question to you is this... What are your thoughts for Valentines this year? You can go traditional and give chocolate and flowers, or you could take it even further. Why not make a gift basket full of gifts from Trudeau ?  No, I am not saying just give a bunch of ki...
