Jerky Product Review

2010-03-16T06:00:00.000-07:00

I am always on the go and I love to have a fulfilling snack with me at all times. I like to have a snack that is good for me and will provide me with lots of protein to keep my energy up. Jerky is a great snack when you're on the go. It's convenient to carry in your purse, doesn't take up much space and I love it. My husband is also a huge jerky lover. He could sit and eat a whole bag in one sitting.

I recently tried some new flavors that Jerky.com has recently developed. The flavors I tried are Spencers Jerky orange beef jerky and mango beef jerky. They were so delicious. Each variety was sweet and spicy, a bit too spicy for my three year old though. I was happy because that meant it saved more for me. I don't think I could choose a favorite between these two either because they were both delicious.

Jerky.com has a variety of jerky to choose from. I have tried their pineapple jerky in the past and loved it as well. They sell a variety of turkey jerky flavors that look wonderful. I've never tried turkey jerky, but I love turkey and jerky so I bet this is delicious as well.

They sell a huge variety of beef jerky. You can't go wrong with beef jerky. I loved the flavors I tried and would highly recommend those. If you're not a lover of fruit flavored beef jerky, then you might want to try the natural or teriyaki beef jerky. There are also other flavors to choose from.

If you're more adventurous then jerky.com has something for you. You can try venison, elk, ostrich, or alligator jerky just to name a few of the jerky that may be for the more adventurous taste buds. You can't go wrong with whatever you order from jerky.com. All the products they sell are sure to be delicious.

Medela Swing Pump Review and Giveaway

2010-03-13T19:34:00.000-08:00

As many of you know I am a working mother to a small baby boy. Recently, I had to return to working full time outside of my home and I still wanted to breastfeed my baby. I believe breast milk is the best source of nutrients for the baby and gives them a stronger immunity to colds and other viruses. I highly encourage anyone who needs to return to work to continue to breastfeed if at all possible.

Upon my return to work I was in need of a really good breastpump. I needed something that was efficient, as I don't have a lot of time during my work day to pump. I also needed a pump that mimicked the baby as close as possible because I have a terrible time with let downs. My other requirement was an electric pump small enough so I didn't have to lug around a huge breast pump like the old style of electric pumps that used to be made years ago.

I found all of the features I was looking for in the Medela Swing breast pump. I absolutely love this pump. It's small, efficient, and met all of my requirements. It is a single pump that has a stimulation phase when you first turn it on that mimics a baby's sucking pattern. This was so important to me since it takes me a while to have a let down especially to a pump because I needed something similar to the baby which would help me relax better and have an easier time with letdowns. After two minutes the pump automatically switches from stimulation to expression phase. You can also adjust the level of pressure to suit your baby's pattern and what you feel the most comfortable with. Another feature I love is the whole thing fits in the palm of your hand.

I really have enjoyed using this pump. It's been nice to have a single pump at home too because my baby generally prefers to nurse on only one side. With the Medela Swing I am able to pump the other side when the baby refuses to nurse and I can have a supply of milk for later. This has been a life saver for me, and making sure that I don't become lopsided. I would highly recommend the Medela Swing breastpump to any nursing mother who is returning to work or just needs a good single breast pump.

Product Features:

-Single Medela Swing Breastpump

-Mobile pumping with tabletop, belt clip and neck/shoulder strap options.

-Drawstring bag to keep everything clean and in one place between pumpings.

-Comfortable, massaging SoftFit™ breastshield.

-More milk in less time with 2-Phase Expression® technology when pumping at Maximum Comfort Vacuum™.

-All parts that come into contact with breastmilk are BPA-free.

Today is Swagbucks Birthday

2010-02-25T06:00:00.000-08:00

Today is Swagbucks birthday. What does this mean for you? Lots of Swagbucks. If you haven't already signed up you need to do it now. Previously, you would only earn 3 Swagbucks for signing up but now you will get 60. Part of this is because now everything is multiplied by 10, so it is really double the Swagbucks compared to what you would have gotten before. For the Swagbucks birthday there will be lots of codes given throughout the day to earn more Swagbucks. There will also be lots of Swag Code giveaways through the Swagbucks blog, twitter, and facebook.

There is a new look on home page, swag store, and rewards store. They are also implementing Swagbucks 3.0 with lots more ways to win Swagbucks. They will also be offering Swagstakes at all times with amazing prizes. Some of the swagstakes will have limited entry giving you a much better chance of winning.

If you haven't heard of Swagbucks, you earn what is called a Swagbuck for surfing the internet or completing special offers. You can then shop through the Swag Store for items using the Swagbucks you've earned for things such as Amazon gift cards and other items. I love Swagbucks, and I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't already signed up. I generally get one or two $5 Amazon gift cards per month just for surfing the internet through Swagbucks. I know there are others who earn a whole lot more.

Use the code CRAFTYMOM when you sign up today through March 4.
