Looks like Hurricane EARL will be traveling up the east coast by the end of the week.  Maryland needs rain but im sure that we are not going to get any from it.

We love Carrabba’s. My fiance and I decided to go to dinner last week as our date night since we were kid free. We choose to go to Carrabba’s. We went about 530-6:00pm on Thursday night. We walked in and was seated right away. I was starving so I was happy that we didn’t have to wait. The restaurant was calming and was such a great setting.

Soon as we were seated our waiter came to us asking for our drink orders. Talk about quick service. He went to get our drinks while we were looking at the menu. We were offered appetizers but decided that we will have a salad. The waiter came back to get our order and was chatting with us for a minute. The waiter was very nice and funny. He had us both laughing.

I ordered the Pasta Weesie and my fiance ordered the Marsala Pork Chops. While we waiting for our food we enjoyed the fresh salad and bread. Not to long after we ate our salad our food was right out. Nice and hot and smelled so good. The pasta was awesome. I ate everything but a few bites. My fiance loved the pork chops. He said they melted in his mouth.  The waiter made sure our drinks were filled up. We enjoyed our dinner but we had to save room for dessert. We decided to try the three different cups of their finest dessert. One was like a strawberry/pineapple. the other was chocolate/nut and the third was a cannoli. All this talk about their food is making me hungry.

We were there for about an hour. Service was great, food was great and we really liked how the manager went to each table and asked how we were doing. Carrabba’s is one of my favorite restaurants.

We will be going back there very soon..

I never used to like Avocado or even want to try it when I was younger. I looked at it and it never apealed to me. Last year my sister made Avocado Dip for one of her parties.  My sister has this recipe where she mixes Avocado, garlic  and Salsa.. Yummy. I have had it a lot since her party. I never would have thought of even trying it. I have not had any Avocado any other way. Maybe ill try out some of the great recipes that are listed on http://www.theamazingavocado.com/bighit  this microsite will contain personal profile pages for the 8 Avocado League finalists and their dishes!

Did you know that at only 50 calories per ounce (around three slices), and sodium and cholesterol free, they make great additions to everyday salads and sandwiches. With nearly 20 different types of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients in a one ounce serving, avocados make a healthy ingredient in any dish?

 Submit your avocado recipe and you may be featured as an “all-star” recipe.  All voting and recipe posting will take place at TheAmazingAvocado.com/bighit Avocado League participants will be announced on Wednesday, September 1 and public voting for the recipes begins in late September.

It’s on of those “things” that I just hate going to do.. CAR SERVICING. I hate to sit there for hours waiting for my car to be done. We decided to take my car to Jiffy Lube to try it out. I was very interested in the “Keeping my Ride Alive” because my car is a 2008 and I want to keep it going for as long as I can. We were not even in Jiffy Lube long enough for me to sit down and read a whole magazine (well look at the pages). Service was excellent and very nice to deal with. I will be going there for now on.

Keeping My Ride Alive is a place to celebrate the miles you’ve logged and milestones you’ve reached. Share your story, upload an image of your ride, cruise the galleries and tell us how your keep your ride alive!Mission:Jiffy Lube International Inc. (“Jiffy Lube”), with more than 2,000 franchised service centers in North America, serves approximately 24 million customers each year. Jiffy Lube pioneered the fast oil change industry in 1979 by establishing the first drive-through service bay, providing customers with fast, professional service for their vehicles. Headquartered in Houston, Jiffy Lube is a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Shell Oil Company. Visit www.JiffyLube.com to learn more about Jiffy Lube and vehicle care.

Miles are like badges of honor and having a vehicle that has racked up significant miles has long been a source of pride for vehicle owners. “Keeping My Ride Alive” is a community where newbies to the road, high-mileage heroes and everyone in between can celebrate the miles you and your vehicle have logged. It is a place to share photos and stories and interact with other like-minded vehicle enthusiasts.

 Interesting Facts:

• According to a recent survey from the Automotive Service Association, more than 54 percent of customers who take their vehicles for service and repair are women
• Using a high-quality motor oil in the right grade can help maximize fuel economy
• Low-quality oils that do not meet industry standards or the vehicle manufacturer’s requirements could cost consumers in the long run by potentially damaging the vehicle’s engine or possibly voiding the manufacturer’s warranty
• Another reason to look to a high-quality motor oil – like Pennzoil and Quaker State – is that it is designed to meet the demands of today’s engines

WIN It!

 I have a $35 Jiffy Lube gift card to giveaway to get you on your way for preventive car maintenance.  The gift card should just about cover a standard oil change at Jiffy Lube.

We were given a chance to try out the Shox Scooter. My son’s scooter just broke right before summer and we told him that we would get him a new one for his birthday. We recieved the Shox Scooter and he was so happy. It was easy to lift up the handle bars so he can use it. He went outside as soon as I handed it off to ride it. He told me he liked the Shox Scooter so much better then the regular scooter he had. He was so happy to be able to ride around with his friends again. It was a huge hit.

The first is the new Shox Scooter®, the first-ever active shock absorber scooter that allows riders to perform higher, faster, more awesome tricks! Unlike traditional scooters, the Shox Scooter’s supreme shocks increase a rider’s speed and air-time, making stunts bigger and better.

The Shox Scooter will be available for an approximate retail price of $59.99 and is appropriate for ages 5 and up.

 Disclosure: We received the Shox Scooter from Team Mom for free. All opinions are based on my own views with the product and my own 100% opinion.

My kids for breakfast everyday eats Eggo Waffles. they love them. We had the chance to try out the Eggo Real Fruit Pizzas. At first my kids looked at them and said they didn’t want them because you can’t put syrup on them. So I went ahead and made one. I sat the Fruit Pizza in front of them and they devoured it.  No questions asked and no complaining.

I love giving my kids healthy meals. Making sure they have the right amount of fruits and veggies everyday. Eggo Real Fruit Pizza is a great want to make sure they get everything they need.

Eggo™ Real Fruit Pizzas are an all-in-one combination of fruit and warm toasted granola on an oven-baked cinnamon and maple-flavored crust.  Available in Strawberry Granola and Mixed Berry Granola varieties, Eggo™ Real Fruit Pizzas join other Eggo® favorites like Homestyle, Buttermilk and Blueberry Eggo™ waffles – all part of a great-tasting family of products that consumers have loved for years.

We had a chance to try Mixed Berry Granola pizza and Strawberry Granola flavor. They are both very good.

We will be buying these for our everyday breakfast meals or treats..

Disclosure: I wrote this review while participating in a blog campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Eggo Real Fruit Pizza and received a sample of the product and a $20 Amazon gift certificate to facilitate my review. All opinions are that of my own.

We love Ice Cream. I think its an everyday thing for us to have ice cream as a treat. My kids love to be able to help make their Ice Cream Sundae’s.  We had a chance to try out the Breyers Smooth & Dreamy Ice Cream and Ice Cream Pops. We decided to get the Ice Cream pops in Chocolate Covered Strawberry. Yummy.. My kids loved them. The ice cream was so smooth and creamy. I love soft ice cream and this hit the spot.   They have less calories and fat then the regular  ice cream bars and sandwiches have. Thats a plus in my book.
