5 Ways to Spoil Mom on Mother’s Day + HoneyBaked Giveaway

This is a partnered post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Mother’s Day. Growing up it was a day that I presented my mom with masterpieces of art that consisted of construction paper with dried beans or pasta glued to it. When I got older it was often a card or coffee mug. I still honor my mom on Mother’s Day, but my attention has also shifted to honor the mother of my three children. Giving her a paper with pasta glued to it just isn’t gonna cut it. So, here are a few ways you can honor the mother of your children this Mother’s Day in ways that will make her feel very appreciated.

5 Ways to Spoil Mom on Mother’s Day

  1. Flowers: The flower thing…I don’t get. But, it’s not about me nor do I need to understand it. Women get it though and from what I know most all moms are women. So, what does this mean? It means moms dig flowers. So pony up some pennies for some petals and get mom some flowers this mother’s day and make her day.
  2. Spa Day: What better place for mom to go than somewhere that revolves around making her feel and look even more beautiful than she already is. Buy mom a big gift card and set her free so that she can get whatever she wants. Manicure and pedicure? Done. Relaxing massage? Done. Weird body scrub? Done. Funky face mask? Done. They will take care of mom. Especially her uni-brow.
  3. Cook: Most of us know that the kitchen is usually mom’s domain, like dad’s is the garage…or that second bathroom. Day in and day out mom is serving up breakfasts, pumping out lunches, and delivering dinners to her family. It takes a bunch of effort to do it and she deserves a day off. With the help of HoneyBaked, take her place for the day. Let HoneyBaked do most of the work, and you can take all of the credit.  Cook it up, serve it up and most importantly, clean it up!
  4. Clean: Now unless you have really deep pockets you probably can’t really get her a new house that is spic and span. What I mean is you need to try to take the house she is already living in and get that thing all gussied up! Now, you can seek out a company that comes in and takes care of everything from washing and changing the sheets to washing the floors but, what if mom came home and knew that YOU did all that work yourself? What if she knew that you used your own elbow grease to clean those baseboards and scrub that toilet? Either way I bet she’d dig it.
  5. Rest: Get all those loud kids out of the house, take them somewhere dad has to wrangle them for a while, and let mom do whatever she wants to do in peace and quiet. If she wants to sit around and eat sushi while watching reruns of Saved by the Bell in mommy pants…then she can. Doesn’t matter what she does or doesn’t do, she can do it without having to hear “mommy!” Silence is golden.

A little bit of spoiling doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. Show mom how much she means to you with one of these Mother’s Day gift ideas.

Easter Traditions + $50 HoneyBaked Ham Gift Card Giveaway

This is a partnered post. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Easter is a big holiday in our household.  The entire day is filled with church, family, and food.  The church part is pretty much taken care of on its own and has been for hundreds of years.  The family part is easy because you were born into one and have more than likely brought your own little family into the picture.  But, that leaves one little issue left to cover…the food!

What are we having?

Who’s cooking it?

Are we going out instead?

Will there be enough time to get everything done and still have time to spend with the family? Probably not.

Look, with all that goes on Easter Sunday you don’t need the family meal to be stressful. Mom doesn’t need to be spending the day before, the morning of, and all afternoon in the kitchen. It’s not right. But, there is a spiraled light at the end of the tunnel…

There is one place that can help take the weight off your shoulders, a load off your mind, and keep you out of the kitchen more this Easter.  HoneyBaked Ham is that place.

For three generations HoneyBaked Ham has been committed to bringing the authentic, spiral-sliced and glazed ham as well as other phenomenal products they’ve become legendary for. Whether it’s traditional you’re looking for or leaning in the direction of starting new traditions, HoneyBaked Ham has you covered.

HoneyBaked Ham Easter offerings

You can stay traditional with the classic HoneyBaked ham, or any of their mouthwatering turkey selections, or you can think outside of the box with a sandwich bar. A winning combo includes tender HoneyBaked Ham, Swiss cheese and golden yellow mustard.

However, if you really want to be bold and think differently this year…think beef. From prime rib to tenderloin, HoneyBaked is your source for the finest beef dishes. Pot Roast, Sliced Beef Brisket, and even Beef Wellington are some of the choices that you could bring to your table this Easter.

And it doesn’t stop with the entree’s. With side dishes like Broccoli Rice Casserole, Yukon Mashed Potatoes, Green Bean Casserole, Sweet Potato Soufflé, and Cornbread Dressing, no one will the leave table hungry this Easter.

To help you with your Easter lunch or dinner, I have a $50 HoneyBaked Ham gift card for one lucky reader.

How Clearly Can You See After the Rain is Gone?

Can you see all obstacles in your way? Gone are the dark clouds that had you blind? I know it’s just a song. But, what if you or one of your family members sing this song and think “…I wish!”? Many, many people go through life and not even realize that they have a vision issue or if they do…don’t ever deal with it the right way. My mother-in-law for instance…52 years old and never had a proper pair of eyeglasses even though she knew she had vision issues. She just kept on like many do and kept buying those cheapo glasses from the drug or dollar stores. After all of those years we finally convinced her to go get her eyes checked.  After the exam and frame selections were done it totally changed the way she “looks” at everything now.

Little Eyes Can Have Big Problems

What about the rest of YOUR family? School is back in full swing and after school sports and activities are underway. Are you looking for the signs or even aware that our kiddos may have a vision issue? Squinting, red-eyes, headache complaints, irritability when doing close work, turning or tilting head to see better, and even uses finger to maintain place while reading? I had no idea on some of these and these are just a few!

The folks at VSP Vision Care believe that a comprehensive eye exam is one of the most important ways parents can give their child the best chance at success for the school year.

About VSP Global

VSP Global includes VSP Vision Care, the largest not-for-profit vision benefits and services company in the United States with 58 million members; Marchon Eyewear Inc., one of the world’s largest manufacturers, designers and distributors of quality fashion and technologically-advanced eyewear and sunwear; Eyefinity® which offers innovative solutions and the premier management software and technology to improve overall practice management and patient experience; VSP Optics Group, industry leaders in new technologies, production processes, service and logistics.

According to VSP optometrist Ryan S. Nakamura, OD, of Natomas Optometry in Sacramento, Calif., the following are three reasons why a comprehensive eye exam should top students’ and parents’ school year checklists:

One in four children has an undetected vision condition
A child doesn’t know what good vision is if he or she has never experienced it. Because eye health plays a major role in academic growth, it’s common for vision problems to be mistaken as a learning disability. Undetected vision conditions can negatively impact learning development and contribute to frustrated students, poor grades and behavioral issues.

Comprehensive eye exams detect what school vision screenings cannot
A common misconception is that an in-school vision screening is a sufficient, comprehensive eye exam. While in-school screenings do help identify some vision problems, such as near and farsightedness, they do not test for all of the problems that a comprehensive eye exam can detect like diabetes and hypertension – both growing health concerns for children. Two of the most common vision problems a screening can miss are eye coordination and lazy eye.

Children’s eyes develop rapidly
A child’s eyes develop continuously until about the age of seven – making early detection essential in correcting potentially permanent vision issues. Many eyecare professionals recommend a comprehensive eye examination at six months of age, before a child enters preschool, and again before beginning kindergarten, then every year following that. Unfortunately, 76 percent of children haven’t had a comprehensive eye exam by age five.

All of these things really opened my eyes up on what I was doing and not doing for my family and our quest for good vision. I hope that you guys take the time and stop on by over at VSP’s site and see just how much they can help you and your family get valuable info about the vision of your family as well as money saving deals.

What to Expect When You’re Expecting and Dr. Smith’s Giveaway

When I was told that I was going to be a father for the first time I was in awe. I didn’t know what I was in for. I thought that my wife’s belly would get bigger, the baby would kick every once in awhile, and then we would have a brand new little person in our lives that I could hold while they were slipped into sweet slumber. Little did I know that my wife would have horrible pains from muscles and nerves that she did not even know existed. She also would get kicked in several different spots on the interior of her body and I know she had internal bruising. Cuddling and sleeping near each other were non existent due to the variety of positions she had to be in just to be comfortable. We won’t even go into crazy strange people swooping in and getting all touchy-feely with the belly.

I did so underestimate the whole experience of US being pregnant. It must have not been too bad since we decided to go through it all again two more times! Just like each child is nothing like the other….neither were the pregnancies. Expect the unexpected!

I think that there is one movie that can put a good deal of these experiences into a film. It’s What to Expect When Your Expecting.

The Jawbone ERA and ICON HD + THE NERD

I don’t know about all of you but I need my hands be free to do a lot of other stuff rather than hold onto a cell phone all day long.  I searched around different brands, different stores, different models and I still did not know what Bluetooth headset to get.  I did remember however that there was a brand called Jawbone that a lot of middle-aged men in suits, ties, and shiny shoes that would blind you if you looked straight at them used.  Times have chenged and so has Jawbone’s style. Nowadays, Jawbone has come out with a line that is sleek, elegant, and all-around architechual looking at times.  The two that I’m going talk about are the Jawbone ERA and the Jawbone ICON HD+THE NERD.  These headsets are absolutely amazing, smart, stylish and do exactly what I need them to do.

First off let’s start with the Jawbone ERA.  This bad boy has motion control that means you can magically control your headset with a shake shake to enter pairing mode or tap tap the headset to answer phone calls.  Built in motion sensors create new interactions and levels of intelligence.  This thing is seriously smart.  Also, you can listen to music listen in HD, caller ID by name and it has automatic volume control.

The ICON on the other hand, has many of the same functions as the ERA but with the little NERD adapter that you can plug in to any USB port like a computer.  It will turn your computer that does not have Bluetooth into a Bluetooth capable device.  Another thing with the NERD and the ICON HD is that my laptop currently is not Bluetooth capable.  We were on an airplane a couple of weeks ago and all I had to do was plug the NERD adapter in to my laptop.  Then I was able to listen to a movie in HD when I could not previously.

Both of these headsets come with Noise Assassin.  The Noise Assassin is the original background noise killer and this is the only full noise canceling technology on the market developed for use by real commanders and helicopter pilots in our armed forces.  I’m telling you…this technology is stunning. One thing that I love about these headsets is I can walk in the door after coming home from work with my ERA in my ear paired with my cell phone, walk over to the counter and have the ERA connect to my iPad.  Then watch a video on YouTube through my iPad and then get a phone call on my cell phone and be able to answer on the same headset. Multitasking Maestro!

If you’re doing some last-minute holiday shopping or you have some gift cards to blow after the holiday season you have to put these on your list. These are some incredible headsets and I know if you are a busy parent, all around geek, or someone who needs to do more with their hands that you will just love these headsets.  Check them out today!

In fact….I have NINE Best Buy gift cards to help you out a little bit to maybe put towards one (or both) of these headsets!

A Muppet Masterpiece

I grew up in a world where The Muppets were icons. During my time in L.A. a couple of months back we took a little venture on over to the Jim Henson Company lot. While we were there we toured the place and I got to see first hand the care and love that goes into this franchise. The most moving and inspirational thing that I saw there was a mural of some of the most iconic and most loved characters that anyone has ever created. I realized that most of Henson’s creations and chracters have been splintered out to other companies therefore making a huge Henson reunion….almost impossible.

I took solace though in the fact though The Muppets were going to take another run at the big screen and get the old gang back together again. The movie was a brain-child of Jason Segel and Nick Stoller. We got to interview the co-writers of the movie that day in L.A. and they had some great insights on the Muppets. When Jason Segel (Forgetting Sarah Marshall, How I Met Your Mother) was asked if he was still in awe of the expeience he said “It was a childhood dream of mine. I have a list of dreams that I wanted to publish. One was being on David Letterman, which I did a few years ago. One is hosting SNL which I still haven’t done but I think that I will soon. Then one was make a Muppets movie. And then be on the cover of Men’s Health. Start the campaign for that. Rough.”

When Watching this film I really noticed that there was a definate attention to the past. Jason Segel said “I think what we look towards was the legacy that they had created with those first three movies and the TV show. That was really our model and we didn’t have to stray very far from that time or try to update it or anything like that. The Muppets, their style of humor is pretty timeless and you know, comedy really moves in cycles.” I think that Jason and Nick really wrote an adventure that holds true to the past and propels The Muppets into the future.

You don’t have to take my word on what I think about the movie though. We also asked a couple of experts in the field of the Muppets what they thought of the movie and the script that the guys wrote. Kermit the Frog said “It was wonderful working with Jason. You know, Jason actually wrote this thing to begin with and it went through about 17 thousand rewrites but he’s the guy who wanted to make this movie with us.” Miss Piggy had a different take on it though. “Yeah, I don’t really read the script. I just count lines.” (Kermit clears his throat and chimes in) “Counts her lines.”

If after all of that you still need convincing to go and see The Muppets, well then here it is from my kids first hand. It is their “pick” of the week…you’ll see what I mean by that.

The Search is Over

A few posts ago I talked with you guys about my ring dilemma. I have finally resolved this issue and found the ring for me (or at least the fourth ring for me). I scoured the interwebs to try and get an idea of what ring I wanted. See, for one thing I have this weird thing that happens when I wear certain rings. Underneath the ring I get an blister looking ouchie and I don’t know whether it is from the gold or something else. So I was very worried about what I was going to put on my finger.

I headed on over to Tungsten Rings Online and marveled at all of the choices. I compared them to several other sites that specialize in Tungsten rings and found such a great selection and at least 30%-40% less than other sites. I found the one I wanted and they promptly sent it to me. Upon the ring’s arrival I thought that it really looked impeccable. I got the Flat Tungsten Carbide Satin Finish Band and have had it on my finger for a little over a month now. The comfort is great, the look is elegant, and I have had no problems with this ring messin’ with my skin. Also, I have been wearing it non-stop even at work and it has not gotten one scratch on it all.

If you are in the market for a new wedding band or for one to replace a lost one…or two…or three..I think you have an answer from me. Good stuff!
