Lucky Charms & Golden Grahams Treat Bars Review & Giveaway!

As a member of My Blog Spark, I was recently given the chance to try Betty Crocker's Lucky Charm & Golden Graham cereal bars. My kids were more than willing to jump right in with me to try them. Both kids chose the Lucky Charms cereal bars as their favorite. They loved the Lucky Charm cereal paired with the white chocolate, while I chose the chocolate and marshmallow combo of the Golden Graham cereal bar as my favorite.

With only 100 calories per Lucky Charm bar and 130 calories per Golden Graham bar, as a Mom, I feel just fine including one of these bars into my kids' lunch bags as a treat or handing one out to them with a glass of milk for an after school snack.

As a PTO board member in my daughter's school, I'm thrilled to see not just one, but two, Box Tops for Education included on every box of these cereal treat bars! That's double the money for the school with every purchase.

Included with the 2 boxes of cereal treat bars were these very cool back-to-school items:

a lunch bag
a locker white board
and a tube of colored pencils.

~*~*WE HAVE A WINNER! ~*~*

Congratulations!!

Sugar Cookies & My First Giveaway!

I was thrilled when Elizabeth, from Ann Clark LTD, wrote to me to ask if I would be interested in reviewing some of their cookie cutters. If you are not familiar with the Ann Clark company, they have been producing unique cookie cutters and related gift products in Vermont since 1990. Anne Clark LTD is one of the leading cookie cutter companies in the United States, plus they enjoy a distribution across the country and world wide.

Let me tell you first hand, their cookie cutters are very nice. I've had the opportunity to use their over-sized individual cookie cutters. Each cutter comes with a cookie recipe + an icing recipe.



I used the recipes that came with the cookie cutters. There are several more cookie recipes on their website, as well. The cookies were crisp on the edges and soft and chewy in the centers ...just the way sugar cookies should be!

Where's the pictures of the cookies that I baked? Sadly, there aren't any. I made the sugar cookies with every intention of icing them but then my son and I got sick once again. We both suffer with allergies and this year the tree pollen is really causing havoc for us. So we ended up eating the cookies without icing them (they are really good that way!). There will be a next time for these cookie cutters and then I will post a picture of them!

~*~*~ Instead of waiting for the pictures of my sugar cookies, you will have a chance to win your very own set of Ann Clark Cookie Cutters! ~*~*~
