For everyone else, there’s still a Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories Giveaway going on here that also includes a $25 Barnes & Noble Gift card!

I have always loved reading and began reading with both of my kids when they were only a few months old.  I’m grateful that they now share my love of reading and love watching my oldest read books to my youngest now.

To help grow kids’ love of reading at a young age, this fall Cheerios® is once again inviting families to start the day with a nutritious breakfast and a new book. As part of its ongoing commitment to nurturing young bodies and minds and helping families connect by fostering a shared love of reading, Cheerios will provide more than six million children’s books, free inside Cheerios boxes, through its Spoonfuls of Stories® program. Over the past nine years, Cheerios has distributed almost 50 million children’s books in-pack.

As studies have consistently shown, children with greater access to books and other print materials are more successful in school and in life. However, one recent study revealed that in low-income neighborhoods, there is only about one age-appropriate book for every 300 children, a statistic that exposes one of the biggest barriers affecting literacy today – lack of access to books. In an effort to help combat this issue, Cheerios, as part of its Spoonfuls of Stories initiative, will also make a $300,000 financial donation to First Book, an award-winning national nonprofit that helps get books into the hands of children in need. Cheerios has donated more than $3.5 million to First Book over the past nine years.

To learn more about the Spoonfuls of Stories program or to donate to First Book, visit their  website here.

To promote the Spoonfuls of Stories program, Cheerios (via My Blog Spark) has provided me Cheerios Spoonfuls of Stories Prize pack.  They have also provided me with a prize pack to give away to one lucky winner!  The prize pack includes a $25 Barnes & Noble gift card, a box of Cheerios and all five of the latest Spoonfuls of Stories books:

-All the World by Liz Garton Scanlon (discusses the many wonderful things a child can encounter in the world as well as the commonalities all the world shares)

-Chaucer’s First Winter by Stephen Krensky (follows a bear named Chaucer, who knows he is supposed to sleep through the winter but feels it’s much more fun to stay up and play)

-Jump! by Scott M. Fischer (chronicles the adventures of a bug, a frog, a cat, a hound, a crocodile, a shark, and a whale, who all love to jump!)

-No T. Rex in the Library by Toni Buzzeo (a story about a little girl named Tess and her adventures in the library with a boisterous T-Rex)

-The Purple Kangaroo by Michael Ian Black (a vivid and humor-filled story that tricks the reader into thinking about a purple kangaroo)

For everyone else, there’s still a giveaway for a Fiber One prize pack, which includes a $25 Safeway gift card going on here.

This year I have been trying to focus on losing weight and finding healthier food options for myself and my family.  Fiber One cereals and chewy bars provide a great tasting way to satisfy those cravings with minimal guilt!  Plus, all of their products provide you with at least 35% of the daily recommended intake of fiber in each serving!


Fiber One and My Blog Spark provided me with two VIP coupons for Fiber One cereal and Fiber One chewy  bars, which are available at Safeway, along with a $25 Safeway gift card so I could stock up on Fiber One products!  They are also providing me with a Fiber One prize pack to give away to one lucky reader!

The giveaway starts today, November 1st, and will end on Monday, November 15th at 11:59 p.m. CT. I will announce the winner on Tuesday, November 16th. The winner will be chosen randomly using random.org.

It’s time for another giveaway and since it’s “Menu Planning Monday” I thought it would be a perfect time to kick off this giveaway!  Lawry’s and My Blog Spark sent me this awesome “What’s Your Flavor?” prize pack that includes a marinating dish, a set of skewers, two new marinades, a sample of four of their new seasoning mixes and a bottle of Lawry’s seasoning salt.  They are also providing me with a package to give away to one of my readers!!

Here’s some information on the marinades and seasoning mixes (the Chicken Marsala one is great!)

Marinades
* Szechuan Sweet & Sour BBQ gives meat a delicious sweet and sour flavor with a touch of Szechuan heat

* Tuscan Sun-Dried Tomato includes extra virgin olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes, sweet red bell peppers and the perfect blend of herbs

Seasoning Mixes
* Asian Style Beef & Broccoli – This easy to prepare stir fry meal will remind your family of their favorite Asian restaurant. The dish combines beef, broccoli and seasonings with a hint of garlic. Serve it over rice and you have a complete, satisfying meal.

* Chimichurri Burrito Casserole – Lawry’s gives the familiar Burrito casserole a new twist with this traditional Latin American sauce. With a few simple fresh ingredients, mealtime just got a lot more exciting.

* Mediterranean Sundried Tomato & Garlic Chicken – Add a taste of the Mediterranean to your family’s casserole. This easy to bake casserole combines chicken, pasta, tomatoes and Feta cheese to easily make a flavorful meal any night of the week.

* Tuscan Style Chicken Marsala with Garlic and Basil – Chicken Marsala is a restaurant favorite, but it might not make the menu at home. This effortless version comes together on your stovetop with just a few fresh ingredients. Flavorful garlic and basil gives this meal its own Tuscan flair, perfect for serving over pasta or rice.

A recent Lawry’s survey found that your choice of flavor says more about you than you think. The nationwide poll looked at preferences for tart, spicy, sweet, and savory flavors and found that your choice can reveal some interesting aspects of your personality.

What’s your flavor?

* Joyous Joiners – Tart Flavors – If you are one for tart flavors, you tend to be extremely happy overall, particularly with your family, finances, work/life balance and even your health. As a Joyous Joiners you are an extrovert who loves to entertain at home, find it very important to join in social events in your community and are active on the greatest number of social networking sites.

* Self-Assured Adventurers – Spicy Flavors – If your preference is for spicy flavors, consider yourself a confident, adventurous individual with a passion for travel and cooking. You are the biggest risk taker and although impulsive, you are not reckless – as a Self-Assured Adventurer you also tend to be resourceful, analytical, and most able to “look at the big picture.”

* The Sweet Lifers – Sweet Flavors – As a Sweet Lifer, home and family are close to your heart. You are the kindest and most loyal, although you probably wouldn’t admit that as you are also the most modest. As an individual that prefers sweeter flavors (honey and fruit-infused), you are influenced by your parents, enjoy family entertainment, and consider yourself spiritual.

* The Conventionalists – Savory Flavors – Your passion for savory flavors shows you have an enthusiasm for politics, enjoy camping and hiking and love outdoor barbeques and American cuisine. Along with the other Conventionalists, you tend to be more introverted than the rest of the groups and often describe yourself as a homebody.

The giveaway starts today, October 25th, and will end on Monday, November 8th at 11:59 p.m. CT. I will announce the winner on Tuesday, November 9th. The winner will be chosen randomly using random.org.

You will have 24 hours to provide me with your contact information (when you post to enter, you must leave your e-mail address or some other way for me to contact you!).

Here’s how you can enter to win:

1. Tell me what your flavor preference/personality is (tart, spicy, sweet, or savory) or which Lawry’s seasoning packet or marinade you’d like to try first!

2. Subscribe to my blog (You must activate your subscription to validate your entry). Please post a comment letting me know that you subscribe.

3. Follow my blog through Blogger or become a fan on Facebook. Leave an entry letting me know that you’re following!
