Rooster Fin Games

 We got to experience some game fun through #tryazon and #roosterfingames. For those that don't know #tryazon is a site where you can sign up to host different parties. This one we did was a game night party.
 The games they sent were Lumpy Cubes, Squirrel Ninja and Wizard roll. We had never heard of any of these games before.


 First games played was Wizard Roll. The kids seem to really enjoy this game. It was different then other games we have played before. The goal is to be the first player to build the spell thats pictured on their card.
Even Peggy Bundy liked that game
 Next the girls tackled Squirrel Ninja. Now this one was probably their least favorite. Object is to have matching Squirrel Ninjas and acorns and then one player grabs that color acorn off the board.

Player with the most acorns wins.
 The favorite game for the night was Lumpy cubes. Who would have thought that such a simple game could be so much fun. They are plastic cubes that have faces on 2 sides of them.
 A card is placed down and the cubes are dropped and gathered back up. The object is to stack the cubes exactly as shown on the card. The first player to do so yells Lumpy and wins.
It was a lot of fun getting to try out new games. My kids loved Lumpy cubes and wizard roll the most. They had a lot of fun playing together and with other kids at the halloween party.

Whiffer-Sniffers Back to School Party

I was selected by *#Tryazon to host a #Whiffer-Sniffers Back to School Party. They sent a huge box of products for the party. They sent really cute Whiffer-Sniffer bags that each had a Mystery pack along with a Collectors book.

Whiffer-Sniffers-  "You have to catch a whiff of the original Whiffer Sniffers. Whiffer Sniffers are amazingly scented collectible plush characters with personality and charm. Each character’s scent matches their appearance. The strawberry smells like strawberries! The popcorn smells like popcorn! The chili pepper smells like…chili?!?! The fragrances are produced in the U.S., so you know they’re good. In fact, they’re so good that they will last for at least a year. Kids won’t be able to resist them. They will collect’ em, give’ em and trade’ em. They’re so much fun!"

Tryazon-"is a Featured Party opportunity from Tryazon (pronounced Try-uh-zon ☺). There are 99 similar parties taking place this week within the US. Tryazon is a service dedicated to getting innovative products into people’s hands and mouths, in fun settings like this. They offer excellent product samples and savings for all who participate." 


You can see here a lot was sent. 

My friends and I had a cook out for the party. We had 7 adult men, 4 adult women and 4 girls. We had so much fun seeing what everyone got in their #Whiffer-sniffer totes and what mystery Whiffer-Sniffer they received. We all had to pass them around so we could smell them all.
Even some of the men just had to smell them. He is sniffing Sugar Cake a series 2 Whiffer-Sniffer. She is so cute and smells really good.

 Milkey Milk Shake-Series 4-Limited Edition
 Katie got the Sugar Cake and her mystery was Katie Cotton-Series 3. Katie Cotton smells like cotton candy.
 Lexie's myster was Ivana Pucker up-Series 3-Limited Edition-Smells like lemons
 Maddison got Izzy Sodalicious-Series 4-Smells like grape soda
 Michaela got Ivan Pucker Up-Series 3-Limited Edition mystery pack and she also had picked out May B Minty-Series 4. May B Minty is an ice cream cone and she smells very yummy, just like mint.

Jade got Howie Rolls-Series 4. He is a very cute cinnamon roll, that smells very good. A young boy at the party that didn't want his picture taken got Sonny Shine-Series 4-He looks and smells like a tangerine.

Cesar Home Delights


I am a member of crowdtap and I was picked to try out Cesar Home Delights. Well not me but my dogs to try them out. I was a bit nervous in giving my dogs this product. They have only ever had Purina One Dog Chow. I was worreid that it might upset their stomachs and give them diarrhea. It didn't and they loved it.


This is Toby. He is an almost 7 year old yorkie. Now I had to convince him to eat it. He is the type of dog that I could lay my plate on the floor and as long as I am home he would never touch it. So after some convincing that it was not people food he finally decided to try it. Boy did he love it. I've never seen him chow down as fast as he did. He has tried the slow cooked chicken & vegetable dinner and also the pot roast with spring vegetable dinner.

My other dog is a 1 year old pitbull. He also loved the Cesar Home Delights. I could not get a picture of him cause he was sliding that bowl all over the place trying to get every last drop he could get. He had beef stew.

My daughter even said they smelled good enough to eat. I will be buying some next shopping trip.

Neutrogena nourishing Long Wear Eyeshadow

“I’m a member of the Crowdtap Neutrogena® rewards program, and Neutrogena® sent me a sample of its Long Wear Eye Shadow to review.” So far I am loving it. I would have liked the brown colors but the gray and black are pretty to. 
There are tips on the back which I did try out but I'm not to good at it yet so I did not take a picture of it. They also have more tips and tricks at neutrogena.com/eyeshadow. Which I will be checking out. 


These were just some shots of me using them one color at a time. I'm not sure on the black but I love the other three colors. 
I love the colors, the feel and look of this eyeshadow. Can't wait to look at some other ideas on how to wear it. It does last me through out my whole work day which is great.

Brookside dark chocolate crunchy clusters-berry medley flavor

I received a sample of Brookside dark chocolate crunchy clusters-Berry medley Flavor for free from Crowdtap. We had never tried them before but I must say that they are very good. I shared with my husband and kids. Out of three kids only my picky eater actually liked them. My husband wants me to go out and find some more and I liked them also.
I'm not fond of dark chocolate but with the berrys its a great combination. 

I finished them off at work with some sweet tea. A very sweet snack. #DiscoverBrookside.

Scott Naturals-Toss the Tube

I received Scott Naturals toilet paper for free for testing purposes from Crowdtap and Scott. My family and I have never been fans of the brand Scott. We like a really thick soft type. But we gave it a shot and it wasn't too bad. Its a bit thicker than I remember and it gets the job done. I can't say that I will purchase it down the road but it was interesting to try it out. Plus my girls were curious to see what a tube-free roll of toilet paper looked like. 










Campbells

I received a bunch of new campbells products from Crowdtap.com for free for testing purposes. There were many different campbells products plus a spoon, cutting board, tote, shaker and a recipe book with coupons.



 This is all the stuff that came in my box. The products for cooking were Campbells condensed creamy poblano & queso soup (which we have not tried yet), Swanson cream starter broth, campbell's chunky beer-n-cheese with beef and bacon, Prego homestyle alfredo sauce, campbells skillet sauce-creamy parmesan chicken, campbells slow kettle style soup-roasted chicken noodle soup, spaghetti o's micros-original

We started out with making loaded potato soup with ham chunks using the Swanson cream starter-traditional. 
It was very yummy and filling. It was so much quicker and easier using a cream starter.

I ate the campbells slow kettle roasted chicken noodle soup for my lunch at work. It was pretty good. It was a nice change from the normal sandwich I usually eat. 
I than used the skillet sauce-creamy parmesan chicken sauce. I used it on chicken of course and made a side of noodles and green beans. I forgot to take an after picture and my kids loved it so much there was nothing left to take a picture of. We will def be buying a ton more of this. 
My husband wouldn't let me use the campbells chunky beer-n-cheese with beef and bacon soup on anything. He wanted to eat it as it came. I'm guessing the words beer, cheese, beef and bacon called to him. But he wasn't really thrilled with it and didn't even finish it. Which is odd for him because he eats most anything. He just didn't care for it. He had the girls try and they to did not like it. I tasted it but it really wasn't my kind of thing to eat. 

I shared my coupons with a co-worker and she bought a few things. One was campbells chunky steak and potatoes soup. She said it was good but had too many potatoes and not enough steak. But with the coupon she used at walmart she only paid 50cents for it, which was a great deal.

This was probably my most favorite product testing that I have ever had. It was so much fun trying out and cooking with the many products.
