December 2, 2011 by 19 Comments

Red Tulip– everything for a city girl or a cowgirl! Your one-stop shop for all things home, accessory, shoes, jewelry, and decor!

I have a best friend who loves all things western. She is all about riding horses as well- and the girl does spend a lot of time on them! Since Red Tulip Boutique has gifts for both the Country Girl and City Girl- or the suburban girl, as the case may be!- it’s a great place to shop this year. I let my girlfriend pick out a purse from this site, since I knew she would go bananas for it- but when it got here I was SOOOOO jealous!

This is the Amanda Buckle Hobo in Black faux leather with a Tooled look- super cute. It’s fully lined, single handle, top zipper, inside pockets, back zippered pocket, and rests on four feet.
Speaking of cute- how cute is this???

The All Girls Rodeo Burnout Tee by Original Cowgirl Clothing Company- and if I had seen this shirt, my girlfriend may not have gotten the purse, LOL. OK- she would have still- but I LOVE [Read more…]

Plasma Car- Review and G!VEAWAY (you are going to want this!)

November 29, 2011 by 561 Comments

When is the last time you saw a 3 ft tall driver barreling down the street, turning the steering wheel more wildly then a cartoon character, and not called 911? No- this isn’t too much eggnog and olives drenched in vodka for Grandma at Christmas. This is the plasma car, for your kids, silly! Plasma car is a kid powered vehicle which moves by turning the steering wheel in a back and forth motion, about 30 degrees each way, to go forward in a wobbly and silly manner. The car moves completely in this manner, meaning your kids legs are left for more important things like stopping the car in emergencies 🙂 If questioning how exactly it works your best bet is to check out the video:

Little Man liked it because it looks like a spaceship car. We like it because, sans up a hill, it keeps the speed to a minimum while keeping the fun at a maximum. Also, trying to figure out how it works is always a head scratcher for everyone. I suspect it has to do with the size of the three tires at the front of the vehicle, but honestly I am not really sure. All I do know is, Little Man likes it, it uses no batteries and for now fulfills his need for speed.

OK, so- maybe he didn’t really get the whole steering thing- but he is stubborn like a mule, LOL- he still loves it!

One of you will win a PlasmaCar as well! Of course, if you want to make sure one is under the Christmas Tree or as a gift for Hanukkah, you can always buy it here– many Learning Express stores also carry them, I have seen them on my Quest for a Santa YooHoo!

The Bake Shop- Cookies, Cakes, and Whoopie Pies- W!N Yours Here!

November 29, 2011 by 174 Comments

One of the big selling points of Amish country for Little Man is the baked goods. There is one in particular that tickles his fancy at every turn and causes him to actually yell in delight. The infamous Whoopie Pie. When done right it is a melding of cake, cookie, and vanilla/butter cream frosting into Amish good-ness. We are now connoisseurs of the Whoopie pie, and know where the best are made. One of these bakers of pure joy is The Bake Shop.

When compared toe to toe with Pennsylvania Amish and Ohio Amish, these stand up quite well. Yes, there is a difference- but that is not a bad thing. Bake Shop’s Whoopie Pies are chocolate cake with a light fluffy butter cream filling. The cake itself has more bite to it then the PA Amish pies, a bit closer to a fluffy cookie. Overall quite good. The pies themselves are almost bite size, which is nice or not nice for popping one in your mouth and getting the whole she-bang in one shot, LOL.

The Bake Shop also sell an assortment of cookies, brownies, hand made marshmallows and caramels. They are definitely added to the list of places to call before the big holiday party.

One of you can win Chocolate Whoopie Pies here- Here is how to enter!

Scandle Candles are fun to use, and you don’t need to worry about them being hot to the touch when you use them- they come out the perfect, warm temperature 🙂 A candle plus a backrub? Hooray!
PLUS, these are cruelty free, hydrating, made from natural ingredients, and are made from FDA approved ingredients including shea butter, cosmetic grade soy butter, jojoba, vitamin E, & body safe fragrance or essential oils.
