Mom Is Teaching

So, we had this huge #twittercruise party and we definitely were in the trending conversations for that night.  And, we had prizes galore.  So many prizes in fact that it took us much longer to ask trivia questions and do random drawings than it should have so we were there for 5.5 hours instead of 3 like we had planned.

I will be getting touch with the winners in the next couple of days and the sponsors as well so that I can get the prizes moving to the winners.  This really was fun and I hope you all enjoyed it.  So, winners…here goes….

We had two of these, one of them was won by @tammygirl.  The other one was won by @lisasamples.  Congratulations to both of these ladies and their families.  This piece of equipment sure looks like a lot of fun to me.  You can follow them @thestep2company.

Another set of Gift Certificates were offered by Sarah Cook who sells Mary Kay.  The winners of these Gift Certificates were @bkok00 and @luckytoddler.  I happen to love Mary Kay cosmetics so if either of these want to give up their prize, I’ll gladly take it off of their hands, lol.  Just kidding!

I met a lady several months back named Stacey Kanneberg who is a part of Cedarvalley Publishing and she was kind enough to offer up 2 sets of books.  One of the books is Getting Ready for Kindergarten and the other one is Getting Ready for First Grade.  My kids have these books courtesy of Stacey and you definitely won’t go wrong with these products.  You can follow Stacey on twitter as @staceykann.  The winner of these  set of books is @cutemomclothes.

LVS Online is another one of the wonderful sponsors.  @mzautree is the winner of the $25 Online Class from LVS Online.  Again, if you aren’t familiar with this company, I suggest you give their site a look and see if you aren’t just as impressed as I have been.

A group of Guru’s have a a package known as the Triple-Double.  And, trust me, learning from these folks will be a dream for @tammigirl as she won the prize that they offered up.  You can find them at My Side Hustle, Super Nova Webs, Just Write Right and MsShowBiz

Wish her well and maybe she can give us some tips or the secrets that the Triple-Double revealed to her.  Congrats!

When it comes to cooking, I’m pretty pathetic but since we are discussing cooking utensils, I figure now is as good of a time as any to tell you about the Robinson’s Home Products which are available at Target, Amazon and Crock-Pot.com

We had 3 lucky winners in this giveaway and they were @bkokc00, @wastebasket and @mommaven.  So, look for them to give us some cooking tips as well.

We were the lucky recipients of 10 packages from Uncle Ben’s featuring 2 packages of rice in each.  So, with that, we have 10 winners to recognize.  And, since food seems to be a hot topic, I’m curious what these folks have to say about their rice once it arrives. 

@autismfamily @redhatty @fprattellis @totally_toni @worldsdresser, @plussizemommy @susieqtpie @totaldelights @tpompa and @msshowbiz

All those wonderful people will receive one of each of these:

Let me know what you all think about it when it arrives.
