Do You Bake? Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

Do You Bake? is a great company that makes an extensive line of simple yet delicious beer breads, scones, biscuits, brownies, seasonings and dip mixes, with new items being developed constantly. You can also keep your dogs happy with their all natural healthy dog treats that are so simple to make you’ll love making them all the time for a happy canine pal. All  Do You Bake? products  are 100% natural. Each and every one of their products is hand-packed. Their ingredients are locally sourced, fresh and oh so yummy!

I was recently sent an assortment of Do You Bake? products to review.  I received the Classic Beer Bread Mix, Chocolate Peanut Butter Squares Mix, Garden Vegetable Dill Cheese Ball Mix, Chicken Tortilla Soup Mix, Tuscany Oil Seasoning Blend and the Sweet ‘N’ Spicy Pecan Date Cheese Ball Mix.

One of the first things I tried was the Chicken Tortilla Soup Mix.  I had a bunch of chicken breast that was just cooked so it was perfect to cut in cubes and add to the soup.  It was super easy to prepare and it tasted great with a kick of spicy.

Next, I made the Classic Beer Bread.  We used root beer and it turned out great.  It could not have been easier to prepare.  All you need to do is empty the contents in a bowl and mix with 12 oz of beer or your choice of carbonated beverage.  Then you just stir unitil mixed and pour into a greased loaf dish.  You pour some melted butter over the top and bake until golden brown.  It came out great!!!

If you are looking for some great shortcuts this Holiday Season you should check out the Do You Bake? line of products.  We are adding them to our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide under Products to Help You This Holiday Season.

Kleynimals, Non-Toxic Stainless Steel “Keys” Review & 2011 Gift Guide Pick!!!

Finding quality toys that will last, are safe, and that your baby will love is sometimes a challenge. More often than not after buying them all these pricy, plastic, toys, they just want to play with things that aren’t toys, like your keys for instance. Some people come up with the idea that they can just buy a set of un-cut keys for their baby, and while this sounds like a great idea, you still have the problem that regular keys are often made with dangerous amounts of lead. Most of the time babies are hardly fooled by plastic imitations, so what do you do? Well, mom and founder of Kleynimals, decided to come up with a toy to fix that problem! So was born Kleynimals! She designed a set of key-like toys that was made of all natural, 100% recyclable, stainless steel materials and safe for babies to put in their mouths!

My baby loves to play with and chew on my keys, and I always worry about him cutting himself on them or poking them into his mouth. So I was excited when I got the chance to review Kleynimals, I knew my baby would enjoy these! My instincts proved correct because he loves the sound and feel of these keys, they are just like the real thing, only better! Kleynimals doesn’t have any sharp or rough edges for babies to hurt themselves on, plus they are made out of non toxic stainless steel! They are dishwasher safe, which is the recommended washing choice for Kleynimals, a fast and simple way to get them cleaned! They come in a nice little reusable fabric bag which you can store the toy in and keep it clean while not in use. They would make a beautiful keepsake for your little one, as they can be engraved for personalization, and they will last forever! I highly recommend Kleynimals, tried and true, babies love them. As you can see in the photos, my baby couldn‘t keep his fingers off them long enough for pictures!!

Toy Keys

We are thrilled to include this product in our 2011 Holiday Gift Guide.  These adorable stainless steel Kleynimals will make a great gift for the baby on your list. With the option of having them engraved, they would make a lovely keepsake toy from Grandparents, Godparents, Aunts or Uncles.  What a beautiful, fun toy that will always be a reminder of the love you have for that child.  Imagine the joy when that child can one day hand down this keepsake toy to his/her child.
