Will You Love the New Halo Bars? Find Out…

Halo Smores Bars

How to know if you’ll LOVE the new Halo Snack Bars:

Ask yourself the following questions. If you answer, “Um, heck yeah!?” to most of them, then you, my friend, will LOVE the new Halo Snack Bars from PROBAR. {Disclaimer: this quiz is a bit less than scientific. In fact, I just now made it up. But it will still determine whether you’ll love ’em.}

  • Do you have a sweet tooth? Does it make demands for things like chocolate, marshmallows, nuts, or graham-crackery treats?
  • Are you trying to ignore that sweet tooth, but it’s not working?
  • Do you wish you could get yourself to eat snacks that were organic, vegan, or just plain better for you than the vending machine junk you eat now?

If you answered YES, then keep reading!

PROBAR has launched a SUPER yummy new snack, the Halo Snack Bar! This snack bar isn’t just GOOD, it’s also good FOR you. How often does that happen, right? This new snack bar bridges the gap between your current options of high calorie nutrition/energy bars and sugary granola or candy bars.

Here are a few amazing facts about the Halo Bars:

  • All Halo Bars are certified organic, meaning no yucky chemicals, and no weird ingredients that you can’t pronounce.
  • Each bar has Omega 3 & 6, is low-in-sugar and is dairy-free/Vegan- but they come in dessert-style flavors like S’mores, Nutty Marshmallow, Rocky Road, and Honey Graham.
  • Even with the dessert flavors – {and these babies are GOOD!!} – they are each only 150 calories! Rockin.
  • Like all of the other great PROBAR products, these are delicious, convenient, healthy plant based food products. How much better can you get?

Fun reactions from tasting HALO at Expo West 2011:

Now hear the reactions to the new HALO bars in my house…

  • Me: I’m always in a rush, and hardly have time to eat some days. I love, love, LOVE a snack that is easy to grab, fills me up for a long time, and isn’t junk. This is amazingly perfect. Plus- I crave sweets. A lot. So this is just what I’ve been looking for.
  • Kiddo’s: Both of the boys got SUPER excited when they heard I was getting Halo bars- they thought that it had something to do with Halo the video game, lol. They were quite disappointed when I opened the box to some snacks…. Until they got to try them. 5 year old: these taste like camping!! {this was while eating the smores bar…}
  • Boyfriend: He HATES anything healthy. I have to lie, so he doesn’t know, or he won’t eat it. Here is the conversation- Him: “Why didn’t you tell me these were all organic-y stuff?” Me: “I don’t know….” Him: “I’ve eaten like 5 of these already!!” Me: “That means they were good right?” Him: “Whatever. Yes, they were really good. But you tricked me.” :)

Want some too?

Does all this talk of chocolate and marshmallows make you hungry? Then head over to Probar.com, and pick out some new goodies to try out. Use code BLOGGERS at check out, and they’ll give you 40% off your ENTIRE order! Amazing, right? Not only do they take care of your health by developing a great new snack, they care about your wallet too.

Introducing… The SplatMat by BooginHead!

When I found out I’d be reviewing a product from BooginHead, I didn’t think that I’d ever heard of them before. But when I went to their site, I was so excited to see that this is the company that makes the SplatMat that I’d been looking for!!

I saw one of these at a friends house a few months ago, and had been SO wanting to get one too– It’s the greatest idea!

If you saw my post the other day about Abby learning to feed herself, you know that I have a MESSY eater on my hands! We have carpet in the dining room, and it was getting to be a total disaster in there. I had tried using a cheap-o plastic tablecloth from Walmart- and it kept things clean, but it was ugly, and wouldn’t stay put. The SplatMat is the PERFECT solution! {You can totally tell that this was invented by a mom with the same problem, right?}

A few reasons why the SplatMat rocks:

  • The designs are super cute, and the quality is amazing.
  • The round shape covers more area, keeping your floors cleaner. And it’s super easy to wash up after meal-time too.
  • It’s versatile- You can use it for craft projects, as a play-mat, or at the park for a picnics.

I love it when another mom out there figures out a great solution to one of my mommy challenges- because this is such a life-saver for me. We’ve been using the SplatMat for over a week now, and it’s making mommy’s life MUCH easier.

Enter to Win!

Use the Rafflecopter form here to enter to win a SplatMat of your own!

Then make sure to head over to The Caffeine Coquette to learn more about another great product – the Baby Dipper – and enter to win that too.

And don’t forget- Visit the main Mompact site to hop around to all of the other blogs that are participating, and enter to win the Grand Prize!

Sesame Street Party Planning Kit

Sunny Days…sweepin’ the clouds away…on my way to where the air is sweet… Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?

How can you not smile when you hear that song, right? And who doesn’t LOVE Sesame Street? Even the Grouch loves Sesame Street- and he’s the grouch! So what better theme for a kids party?

  • Happy birthday party banner
  • Party centerpiece
  • Decorative ribbon wall
  • Kid friendly finger food ideas
  • Colorful cupcakes and toppers
  • And more!

Trust me, even if you’re not a crafty type, these are all totally do-able. The instructions are simple, the ideas are super fun, and with the printables included- it will be so easy to put together! You even get ideas for games and kids activities, as well as some cute trivia for the grown-ups.

They include helpful things like a party timeline to help you plan, cool party tips, ideas for do-it-yourself favors and a resource guide- everything you need to stay organized! And think of how much money you can save by putting this together yourself, vs buying a bunch of overpriced supplies at your local party store?

  • Kids games
  • Adult trivia
  • Customized thank you tags

Sounds like a good time, right?

The ladies at elevencupcakes put a ton of time into making these party printables- they hand-cut each character individually from textured papers, and then scanned in those images. What that means is that you can really see all of the fun textures and details, making these a really unique printable. So cute!

When you order your kit, you get to customize it too- You give them the following info, and they’ll create a personalized party set just for you kiddo:

  • Child’s first name
  • Child’s age (that they will be turning)
  • Party date, time, and location
  • RSVP date and contact (phone or email)
  • 14 food labels (character name for the top and food for the bottom).

The party guide is just packed full of fun ideas– This would be a great Birthday Party, obviously. But it would also make a super fun playdate, mommy group meeting, or for any other event you want to celebrate. And since you get the PDF files for all of the printables- you could most of them again- since you can print as many as you want. Awesomesauce.
