A Volunteer Making a Difference & Carolina Pad and Volunteerspot.com Contest

Carolina Pad and VolunteerSpot.com have teamed together to make National Volunteer Week special for those people who do the dirty work and don’t get the recognition they deserve.  VolunteerSpot is a FREE online resource for volunteers to organize events, a soccer season, church fundraiser and many, many more other volunteer events. VolunteerSpot's FREE online signup sheets make it easy for anyone to schedule and coordinate parent volunteers 


A Mom Making a Difference: I'm a member of a MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group in my area. We meet twice a month and have great speakers, crafts, food and fellowship. We also have the experience of our "Mentor Mom." Our Mentor Mom is there at every meeting to hold babies, pray, share, provide insight and so much more. She no longer has preschoolers but she's had 8 and has walked the road us newer moms are walking many time over. It's been very comforting to have a veteran mom and wife in our midst. I have had the opportunity to learn from her experience. Even though she has other commitments and an older child at home our Mentor Mom carves out time every two weeks and surrounds herself with Mothers of Preschoolers. I can only hope that she knows how important her sacrifice of time is to each and every mom in our group!

Do you know a volunteer making a difference? Be sure and check out the contest below and enter today.

Review:Our dog likes to keep things interesting in the house and reminds us frequently that she's around by needing a trip to the vet's office.  She's been on antibiotics 4 times with 3 vet visits...and that's just this month!  I have a hard enough time keep up with when the kids have well visits let alone when the dog needs to go to the vet for routine appointments, when she last had her heartgaurd pill or we administered flea and tick prevention.  This handy app gives me the resource to have all the information I need in one place. 

I can input my pets breed, name, micro chip number, health information and much more.  With the pet dossier the vet and groomers phone numbers are a click away.  If you have pet sitters watch your pets, this is a great way to keep up with your pets data; then simply email the pet sitter a copy of the information they might need.  The app allows you to keep files on multiple pets.  It's also important to upload a picture of your pet.  This way if they are ever lost you can quickly pull up a picture and ask if anyone has seen them!

Tavern Direct Toscana Parmesan Marinade Review

I was so excited to be part of the Tavern Direct Super Insider program. I have had the pleasure of speaking with Louis Bivona, Managing Partner of Tavern Direct and Founding Member of NCMEC multiple times. Not only are the products awesome but they have a great mission working with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Tavern Direct was also one of the sponsors for The Relevant Conference I attended last year. Each night we got to try something new as well as some yummy sauces during a dinner.
Just this week I was able to try out the Toscana Parmesan Marinade.  I honestly think I could have had it straight from the bottle it smells amazing!  We eat a lot of chicken so of course I decided I would spruce it up a little bit with the marinade.  I picked up two packages of chicken tenderloins and placed roughly 15 pieces in a zip lock bag with 1/2 a cup of the Toscana Parmesan Marinade.  I was a little crunched for time so i only let it marinade for an hour.


Preheat the oven to 350 and place chicken tenderloins on baking sheet.  I baked them for 15 minutes on each side (always make sure you cook thoroughly).
Lucky for my family we had some leftovers so we got to enjoy it multiple nights.  The first time around I cut up my chicken and ate it on my salad.  The second time around I basted additional marinade on the chicken before heating them up.  I added french fries for an easy family friendly meal.

Next Time: I will be adding a little more marinade and/or letting it soak for longer.  I'm also considering using the marinade on pork!

Be sure and check out Tavern Direct for more flavorful recipes using other great Gourmet Marinades and Sauces.

Buy it: You can purchase the Toscana Parmesan Marinade and many other great products at Tavern Direct.

Win it:Visit the Tavern Direct Blog and enter to win 1 of 5 bottles of Toscana Parmesan Marinade!

Glominerals cosmetics is another line of products that has me intrigued.  I like the idea that the products not only help me to feel a little more presentable but they also help protect my skin against UV rays!  The infusion kit is a great way to get coordinating products that I can wear all year long, saving me time and money.

With an antioxidant complex of Vitamin A, C, and E, as well as Green Tea Extract, these products will protect skin against UV rays and free radical damage. With healing ingredients and free from talc, perfumes and chemical dyes, glominerals is good for your skin while giving flawless coverage and color.

Skin MD Shielding Lotion Review & Giveaway

About: A shielding lotion does the real work to prevent dry skin in two ways.

First, it assists the inner layers of skin to absorb moisture. The humectant (an ingredient that attracts moisture) used in Skin MD Natural is unique to it and has been laboratory tested to be 6 times more effective than any other you will find in common creams.

Second, a shielding lotion enhances the power of the top layer of the skin to resist environmental irritants while protecting the inner natural moisture.

This can be a big benefit for those who cook, wash dishes and garden because Skin MD Natural helps skin retain its natural moisture and oils in the face of all those irritating soaps and chemicals.

The manufacturer's skin care website has hundreds of dermatologist and user reviews including many addressing severe dry skin problems such as eczema and psoriasis. People with sensitive skin and those of us who like to live as naturally as possible will appreciate that Skin MD Natural is hypoallergenic, free of fragrances, parabens and colorants. It is made with more than 90% natural ingredients and 100% food-grade ingredients that are on the FDA's "most safe" list.


Review: The winter months always seem to do a number of my skin.  That coupled with the fact that I probably wash my hands 100 times a day.  I love the feel of the Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion.  It's a silky texture that goes on smoothly and doesn't leave a greasy feeling.  My daughter has been sick over the past few months so I have done a lot of hand washing which leaves me with very dry skin.  Skin MD Natural has been a lifesaver.

As a busy mom I rarely have time to pick up multiple bottles of lotion for my face, hands etc.  It's great that with Skin MD Natural I just have to pick up one bottle and it's gentle enough for your face, hands, even your feet!  My face is very sensitive so it's always nice to find a lotion that doesn't make it itch.

I have bottles of Skin MD Natural all over our house, I even keep a bottle in my daughters diaper bag so I always have it handy.  Once you give it a try you may want to pick up a few bottles so you won't run out.  Keep up with Skin MD Natural on facebook, twitter and Youtube.

Buy it: You can purchase Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion online or at a store near you.

Win it: 1 Coupon Clippin' Mommy reader will win a full sized bottle of Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion.

Mandatory Entry: Visit Skin MD Natural and tell me something you learned.
Please make sure if your email address is not visible in your blogger profile you leave one in your initial entry!

Polkadot Posies Review & Giveaway

About: Polkadot Posies is a distributor of hair accessories.  Infants to adults will find our items stylish and trendy, from flower clips to hair bows.

We offer high quality, low cost accessories that can help you increase your margins.  Polkadot Posies is committed to keeping our merchandise trendy and fresh, while still offering a wide range of the basics.



Review: The first thing that attracted me to Polkadot Posies was the awesome prices on hair bows.  With all hair bows prices under $3 even the most frugal mom can stock up on adorable hair pieces for the little girls in your life.  The quality of the bow and flowers is great.  If they can stand up to an 18 month old and her brother, they are built tough.

All of our items are in stock and ready to ship. Our ribbon ends are heat sealed to prevent fraying and bows and corkers are attached to alligator clips.



I was sent a great variety of hair bows, flowers, corkers and a headband for her to wear them with.  The jewel in the middle of the flowers gives them a classy look that young and old can wear fashionably.  I have to say the corker is probably my favorite but they are all beautiful and add perfectly to my daughters outfits!

As my daughter grows older (and gets more clothes) I will be frequenting Polkadot Posies to stock up on all the hair accessories a girl could ask for.  Keep up with Polkadat Posies on their blog and twitter.


Buy it: You can purchase corkers, Pony-O, clippies, hats, bows, flower clips, headbands and more online at Polkadot Posies.

Win it: 1 lucky Coupon Clippin' Mommy reader will win a hat and flower clip of their choice.

Mandatory Entry: Visit Polkadot Posies and let me know which hair accessory is your favorite.

Guest Post: Healthy Recipes for Diabetics

Diabetes requires a healthy diet to manage properly. Though many things are off limits in terms of sugary sweets and carbohydrates, this is a diet many people should consider following if they want to lose weight.

Healthy Breakfast Recipe: Omelet

Omelets are a wonderful breakfast because they are high in protein, and can be packed full of a variety of vegetables for an extra punch of nutrition. Though this is not high in carbohydrates or sugar, those watching their cholesterol levels may want to opt for either egg whites only, or an egg substitute. Simply choose an assortment of your favorite veggies and lightly saute them before cooking the egg. Cook the egg and fold the vegetables in the middle. Season to taste, watching the salt. Sauteing the vegetables will allow some of the water to cook out of them to make it easier to make your omelet. The great thing about this is, you can vary it every day and never get bored. A word of caution: though meat is a good addition to the omelet for the pallet, you will be wise to avoid meats like ham and bacon because the curing process makes them far more unhealthy than lean meats such as turkey or chicken.

Healthy Lunch Recipe: Grilled Chicken Salad

Grill a chicken breast with your favorite seasonings, such as garlic, or lemon pepper. Make a salad using fresh greens including romaine lettuce and spinach. Toss in some carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, and whatever else you like. Dress lightly with an oil based dressing, or make your own with olive oil. Sprinkle in a little low fat cheese for an extra flair. Avoid cream based dressings and croutons, as these can pack on fat and carbohydrates.

Healthy Dinner Recipe: Pea Soup

Soup is quick, easy, healthy, and comes in variety of flavors. Though cream based soups are much less healthy than broth or vegetable based options, this pea soup is sure to please. All you need is a liter of chicken or vegetable stock, a couple pounds of peas, a little oil, garlic, and chopped onion. Saute the garlic and onion in the oil until soft. Add in the stock, and peas, bring to boil. After boiling for five minutes, pour into a blender to puree. Salt and pepper to taste.

Healthy Snack/Dessert Option: Applesauce

Applesauce with cinnamon is an excellent healthy snack. If the prepackaged options are too high in carbohydrates and sugar for you, you can make your own and freeze the leftovers. All you will need for this recipe is apples, some sort of sugar substitute like splenda or agave nectar, and some water. Once you've covered and sliced the apples, put them in a sauce pan with a little bit of water, enough to cover the bottom of the pan, and simmer until the apples become soft enough to mash. Mash them with a fork or other utensil, and enjoy. Store the leftovers in a jar with an air tight seal. Use your favorite variety of apples and sweeten to taste with the sugar substitute.

Lucinda Watrous used to be a consultant for the Pampered Chef, is currently a member of the Cooking Club and is trying to move to a healthier diet in the midst of all her culinary exploration. She is a wife and mom who loves to share her cooking ideas with you. She also contributes her ideas to My Baby Clothes Boutique, a wonderful place to find the perfect baby clothes, tutus, baby headbands and so much more.

The Moon Shines Down by Margaret Wise Brown Review & Giveaway


Product Description: Forgotten for decades in a dusty, tucked-away trunk, The Moon Shines Down brings to life once more the unmistakable voice of Margaret Wise Brown. This soon-to-be classic allows a whole new generation of children to discover, cherish, and enjoy the artistry of this beloved author.

Never before published, The Moon Shines Down on children all over the world from right next door to across the sea, from where "a Dutch boy dreams" and "cowbells ring" to "across the sea in the Far, Far East", through the familiar prayer:

I see the Moon
And the Moon sees me.
God bless the Moon,
And God bless me.

Review: Are you looking for a great book to add to your bedtime routine?  The Moon Shines Down may be just the book for you.  It's a very sturdy board book so children of all ages can enjoy it over and over again.  The little Koala telling the story is so adorable and kids love him!  I like that the story talks about different Countries, this is a great way to talk to your children about other parts of the world and how some of them are sleeping now too.

The illustrations in this book will catch your child's eye and keep them involved in the story.  It's the perfect length and a very cute story.

Buy it: You can purchase The Moon Shines Down online or at a retailer near you.

Win it: 1 Coupon Clippin' Mommy reader will win their own copy of The Moon Shines Down.

Mandatory Entry:  Tell me who in your life you would share this book with.
