Slap Koozies Review- Fun Product!

I received this cool product to review in the mail last week and I had to put my name on it FAST because I saw the vultures (kids and hubby) eyeing and wanting it!  I use it everyday now- probably don't need to but hey its FUN!


I use it for my coffee cup, water bottle, and other drinks that I want the kids to LEAVE ALONE- I say  "See it says MOM so it's not yours"  I'm sure Slap Koozies  didn't design this product so I could keep my family away from my beverages but that is how I'm using it!  My kids LOVE to drink from my cups all the time, not sure why- maybe just to mess with me!  Plus when I had a iced coffee drink the other day I put it on and my hands didn't get cold when I drank it.  


I also see how this would be a great way to brand a product.  If I had a company I would buy these for my employees with the company's logo on it! You can buy in bulk and customize the slap koozies! 

From Slap Koozies website


The SlapKooler™ band is a banded 'slap koozie' beverage insulator that you can 'slap' on your can, bottle, arm, leg, friends, or people you just meet. Many people call it a 'slap koozie' or a 'slap wrap', but we call the SlapKoolerTM the next generation of awesome. Dual metal recoiling bands slap the neoprene koozie insulator around your can or bottle, just as it's appeal wraps itself around your heart!

• Keeping your beverage cold and your hands warm.
• Wristbands!
• A way to reminisce about the 80's
• Promoting your brand
• Promoting your product or company
• Dress up your beverage and start a unique conversation
• Ankle warmers!

Send a Flying Card Review- Cool Product!

My mailman LOVED knocking on my door the day I received this in the mail.  He said "Now I can say I delivered a Frisbee." He laughed and said what a cool idea it was- even took a picture of it.  Then when the kids got home they of course took it outside to have fun! 

What an awesome idea to send by mail next time you need to send a card. I'm thinking my dad might enjoy one for Father's Day.  You can custom your message or they have stock pictures.  Are you ready to send someone this unique one-of-a-kind card/gift? Check out all the Ways to Use a Flying Card.

What is a Facebook Interest List?

It's a way to stay on Facebook even longer- Oh Geez!  Just kidding of course but I see myself looking at these lists daily now. 


Looks like you can create lists for your News Feeds by subscribing to your favorite interests.  You can subscribe to other people's list or create your own.  You make your list public, just for friends, or just you can see it.  I love how custom we can make our lists.

I found how to get there by:

• click on HOME (right hand upper button)
• click on MORE left hand side columns (mine was under Apps) 
• click on Add Interests
• it will give you suggestions and I went through and subscribed to several lists that I liked,
• you can make you own lists too by clicking on Create List button- right hand side upper corner- See red circle (below). 

I subscribed to DIY Home Decor, Recipes, Reality TV Shows, Social Media

I've Been Banned From Using the Word "Play Date"

My 10 yr old son last night informed me NOT to call his "hanging out with his friends" PLAY DATES anymore. Oh... my bad!  Yesterday, I asked a dad if we could get our kids together for a play date and my son kicked me.  I thought at first he didn't want me asking but then the look on his face made me think...WTH did I say wrong! So when we got back home he informed me how embarrassing I was asking for a "playdate".  Hold on Buddy...I've been using PLAY DATE for years now and didn't realize play date sounded so babyish to you until now.  I asked him what he would rather have me say and "hanging with his friends" was the response I got.  Hmmmm... so I guess next time I will say "Mr. K can our boys HANG OUT soon"   Just wait my son,  I'm sure there are going to be far more times I embarrass you and I will do it with a smile on my face just like my parents did!

Review: Eraselet- Bracelet Eraser

REVIEW: I have to say what a cute product. Erasers are always being lost at our house- not even sure where they go but hey these Eraselets have worked wonders all week.  I even caught my 10 yr old using one the other night when he told me earlier those are too babyish for him.  I showed my daughter to turn it inside out and use a finger to help erase, it took her a couple times but now she is PRO!   She wore a couple the other to school and when she came home she didn't have any on, she gave them out.  I recommend Eraselet Braclet Eraser!

Want to WIN your own Eraselets:  ENTER HERE

PRODUCT INFO: The Eraselet® was designed for porous paper such as notebook paper, elementary lined paper, construction paper, low-end copy paper, newspaper; paper that kids use everyday in schools across America!  The Eraselet® is not recommended for laser copy paper, glossy paper or paper that has a film on it.  The most common way to use the Eraselet is to simply stretch it to the tip of your thumb or index finger and erase- use it inside out though so the outside stays clean :)

Wholesale: I'm also on our School's PTA so I will share this info with them because this would make a great fundraiser for schools.  They offer packages for at wholesale prices to school/teachers/pta to enable them raise funds for their school or classroom.  Schools can earn a 50% margin and 100% profit on a fun product.  I think this would work well at our weekly Bake Sale.

REVIEW- Ouidad Climate Control Frizz & Flyaway Fighter

I received a sample of Climate Control Frizz and Flyaway Fighter and  Climate Control Shampoo and Conditioner.  I have to say I really love this product.  I used it for both my hair and Lil Mama's hair.  If you have Curly Hair please try Ouidad products I know you won't be disappointed.  

My hair is so long and thick  right now that I get mad everyday trying to style it so its usually in a rubber band on top of my head.   The past 3 days (since using these products) my hair hangs so nice and NOT FRIZZY!  Yesterday,  I went to the grocery store and 4 people came up and told me  "What beautiful hair you have"  one lady even touched it and said she always wished for hair like mine.  My hubby even noticed the NO FRIZZ and asked what I did different.  Sorry to say I'm not going to post pics because I don't like having my picture taken with my double chins, LOL!   With the compliments I've received I'm going to tell you that it works just wonderfully on my thick wavy long hair! 

Now my daughter's hair is a big thorn in my butt because everyday it starts dreading up no matter what, so its usually in pony tails or braids.  I love her hair down but it takes a lot of work and within a couple hours its all dreaded and frizzy again.  Yesterday,  I washed her hair with the Climate Control Shampoo & Conditioner then combed through it with no fight!  When I was done I sprayed the Control Frizz and Flyaway fighter and BAM this is what she looked like!  We all loved her hair!  All night I was saying "Oh I love your hair".  When she got up this morning I just had to spray some water and the Frizz control on it and she was ready to go!  That hasn't happen all school year!  

I highly recommend Climate Control Frizz and Flyaway Fighter and Ouidad's Climate Control Defrizzing Shampoo /Ouidad Climate Control Defrizzing Conditioner .
