Bzz Campaign #2 Buitoni Riserva Crab Ravioli

Not long after I received my first campaign from BzzAgent, they were nice enough to give me a second campaign.  This one was for Buitoni pasta.  I have never tried Buitoni pasta before because I always figured the price would be too high.  Since this one was free for the campaign I had nothing to lose.  While buying my pack, I noticed the other packs were 20% off, and if I used my $1.50 Buitoni coupon they would end up being about $2.00 per pack, which is enough to feed 2 adults.

I purchased the Riserva Crab Ravioli.  They also had Shrimp Scampi, but I hate shrimp, so obviously that was out.  There was only one way listed on how to prepare them, which was boiling them.  My husband got creative and decided to coat them in bread crumbs and flour and fry them instead. 


I think I was putting away laundry upstairs when my husband was making these, but I asked him to take pictures.  And he did.  Wasn't that sweet of him???



When they were finished we served them up with some marinara sauce for dipping.  I don't even think we used forks.  We ate like cavemen. 




As  you can see my hubby enjoy eating them as so did my 4 year old.  What???  A 4 year old liked eating crab?  Why, yes she did.  If I told her they were crab she probably would say "I don't like that" (without even trying it).  Maybe she ate it because they were fried, but I'm a happy mom when the kiddos eat dinner without a fight.  Thank you Buitoni and BzzAgent, for letting us try your product.  I will definitely buy more!

Bzz Agent Campaign #1- Curel!!!

I recently signed up to be a Bzz Agent and received my first campaign.  If you don't know what Bzz Agent is, be sure to check out http://www.bzzagent.com  Take the surveys so they can learn a little bit about you.  When you are selected for a campaign you get to try great products for free.  All you need to do is share with your friends in blogs or on Facebook, and let them know what you think!

My first campaign was for Curel Intensive Healing Cream.  My skin is particularly dry on my face and my feet.  Ohio weather is crazy, and we can have what seems like 3 seasons in one day.  I hate having the tight feeling in my face after a shower, and my feet are super rough. 

Here is a picture of my right after a shower.  No make up, and in a yellow bathroom so my skin color is all weird.  I think I also need my eyebrows waxed.  Anywho...my skin is really dry so I slathered on some Curel Intensive Healing Cream.  The cream goes on sort of thick and reminds me of Elmer's Glue.  I would recommend putting it on at night and then you can just wake up in the morning with smooth, moisturized skin. The cream definitely lasts, I was expecting my face to show signs of being dry in the morning, and it didn't.  Even my kids can use this cream- you can use it when they are as young as 6 months old. 

I am supposed to use this product for several weeks and let you know the results.  These are just my initial thoughts.  I can give you a final update in a few weeks.  In the meantime, check out http://www.curel.com or Curel US on Facebook.
