General Mills Cereal Review

General Mills provided us four coupons for free cereal through My Blog Spark for this review. We picked out Honey Nut Cheerios, Multi-grain Cheerios, Reese's Puffs Cereal and Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. Our family loves cereal and we would eat it for all three meals if I let everyone. This would be an easier option now because General Mills has decided to reduce the amount of sugar in their cereals and adding more of the important nutrients like whole grains, calcium and vitamin D to their cereals.

Tropical Traditions-Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil Review/Giveaways

OUR REVIEW: I was given the chance to sample Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil in our home. As a Polynesian mom and Polynesian Recipe blogger, I was definitely excited about this opportunity. I love using coconut milk in cooking and I've never actually used coconut oil for cooking. There are several recipes on this site using their products. My favorite and the one I have tried with this coconut oil is the Roast Chicken with Coconut Oil . I love this recipe and my family has been asking for it over and over again! I am looking forward to trying many more of these recipes for my blog as well! I am enjoying this product and using it for cooking is a delight! All I can say is that you have to try it for yourself.

I Heart Jonas DVD review

My two daughters were super excited when we received this DVD to review. They even confessed to me which of the three Jonas Brothers they had crushes on and also which one their cousins have crushes on. I don't let our kids watch too much television. As a family we love watching movies. "I Heart Jonas" is one DVD movie that your family will enjoy. There are many funny moments throughout each episode. It also helps that the Jonas Brothers are good actors. Parents won't have to worry about the content because it's rated "G". It's worth buying for any Jonas Brothers collector because of the different episodes included on the DVD. This DVD would be a great gift for your tween for Valentine's Day! Story: Fans will get a kick out of the lovable antics of three of the world’s most famous musicians with 7 specially selected episodes of the hit Disney Channel Original Series in I ♥ JONAS.
