“Our line of Messy Marvin products is designed with the whole family in mind. From parents to pets, we have amazing patterns, durable fabrics, and stain resistant seals that are not only beautiful to look at, but make clean-up a snap! Part of the fun of being a parent is watching our kids explore the world and try new things.

All have polished nickel clasps which can be opened to attach bag to a stroller or chair if needed. The adjustable soft seatbelt straps make this bag extremely comfortable to carry even with a large load. Made from our “Wipe it up” Messy Marvin lead free PVC lined fabric, ain’t nothing getting through this sucker! Can double as a cooler because don’t all Moms need a drink?”

Old Time Candy Decade Boxes Review

This is a sponsor of the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway where you can enter to win some.

Of all the items I'm reviewing associated with the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway, the box of retro candy I received from Old Time Candy was my favorite. As my dentist can tell you, I have a very sweet tooth. And receiving a four pound box of candy to try out was just heaven.

Old Time Candy offers retro candy. If you are yearning for some of the candy you had as a child, more than likely you can find it here. They have things that I haven't seen in decades, and they have things that I've never seen. While they sell individual pieces of candy like 10 cents for a box of Chiclets, a great thing they offer is decade specific boxes of candy. And that is what I got to try.

The decade boxes come in two and four pound varieties. In the two pound box, there are at least 40 pieces of candy. With the four pound box, there are over 70. Above shows you what the four pound box for all decades looks like when it was first opened. They squeeze something in every inch of that box. You can also get boxes for the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. You'll remember when you first open the box as the smell triggers many memories.

Brothers-All-Natural Fruit Clusters Review

This is a sponsor of the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway where you can enter to win some.

Our household has been a big fan of Brothers All Natural freeze dried fruits for some time, from long before I've been blogging. We've reviewed their product before here on this blog, including their prepper friendly Harvester Farms huge packaging. Their latest product is bite-sized Fruit Clusters, freeze-dried, too.

Cocoa The Dog Cool Mist Humidifier

Operation is simple - keep it off the floor about three feet and away from walls and corners. Definitely don't want to breed mold. We just have one of those multiple step stools and place it on that. We could easily also place it on one of the little side tables in her room - just move it away from the wall. We don't add anything to the water - no oils, medications or salt. We also make sure the mist is not headed towards the ground or any other surfaces - the mist just flows into the air.

Delicious Wishes Baskets Review Reworked

This is a sponsor of the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway where you can enter to win one.

We recently had a review and giveaway of the basket above for Easter. Below is basically the review part of that past post, without the old attached giveaway. For the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway event, we're giving away the Fat Free Fun Spa Basket from Delicious Wishes Gifts, worth $70.

Spring to me always seems like gift basket season. Between Easter, Mother's and Father's Days, Graduations, Secretary's Day (now known as Administrative Professional Day), Teacher Appreciation Day/Week, and my birthday, among other occasions, gift baskets of various sorts work great for those in a giving mood. Thanks to the generosity of the folks at Delicious Wishes Gifts, my family got to try one out, and you get the chance to win one, too.

Frogglez Swimming Goggles Review

This is a sponsor of the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway where you can enter to win some.

My seven-year old son is getting swimming lessons at the local pool. He constants wants to wear goggles when in the water but always struggles when putting them on. Recently, we had the chance to try out Frogglez, an alternative pair of swimming goggles with a different approach at things.

Besides the cutesy name, the key thing that makes Frogglez different is that there is no strap for resizing the goggles. You literally just pull them over your head as demonstrated in the below video.

Bear Paws Meat Handling Claws Review

This is a sponsor of the Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway where you can enter to win some.

I've been eyeing these Bear Paws since last grilling season. I laughed when I saw Alton Brown whip them out on Cutthroat Kitchen, called only "claw hands". I don't understand why one chef on Cutthroat Kitchen didn't buy the second paw to really hinder the other chef. With that said, this was a fun item to review.

If you've never seen these before, Bear Paws are hard plastic meat shredders you hold in your hands and then attack a whole chicken or pork butt to make pulled chicken/pork with. It looks really fun to play with, though you have to be careful and not let the kids tinker with them as toys, as they are sharp and can really hurt someone. They can also be used to lift whole turkeys and chickens out of the pan with.

Swim, Sun, and Fun Giveaway
