Garden of Eatin' and Terra Chips Review
So I have been seeing these chips for a long time in the store, and I was always curious, but cautious, I mean can a Beet Chip really taste good?
YES it can!
Terra Chips have a full serving o f vegetables in every ounce! That's amazing! And, they actually taste similar to a potato chip, but sweeter.
We tried 2 varieties of Terra Chips, the Exotic Vegetable which is mix of Taro, Sweet Potato, Yuca, Batata, Parsnip, and Ruby Taro. then we tried the Sweets and Beets, which are a mix of Sweet Potato and Beets.
Both were very good, the kids were not crazy about them, but that's ok, they both ate a few and even in that few that's a good vegetable intake for them.
As well as the Terra Chips, we tried Garden of Eatin'. Garden of Eatin' chips are naturally made with great tasting, hearty organic corn.
We tried 2 varieties, Blue Chips and Sweet Potato. I really enjoyed the Blue Chips which are made of organic blue corn. They had a much heartier taste than a normal chip, and they really held up well in my salsa. The Sweet Potato chips were good as well, but all of us as a family thought the Blue Corn was the best.
You can purchase Terra Chips online here, or Garden of Eatin' Chips online here.

GoPicnic Review and Giveaway
So, I keep seeing these cute little boxes in the store that say "Go Picnic" and I am curious about them.
They are gluten free (yay!) and low calorie (300-380 for the 2 I received) and high in protein and fiber.
Each one comes with 5 packages inside the box, they are shelf stable, no need for refrigeration.
In the packages are complete meals.
The first one I tried was the Hummus & Crackers, which had hummus and multi seed crackers, baja blend fruit and nut mix, edamame, pepita & watermelon seed blend, and dark chocolate with sea salt.
Each little package we opened was delicious, and after eating the whole box, my husband and I both felt like we had a full meal.
The second one we tried was the Turkey Stick & Crunch. This one had hardwood smoked turkey snack stick, mountain mambo seed & fruit mix, barbeque popchips, tropical 100% fruit peel-a-part and dark chocolate with rice crisps.
My husband and I both enjoyed the Hummus and Crackers the most, but the Turkey Stick and Crunch had 80 calories LESS.
One reader is going to win 2 packages of GoPicnic like I received!

Mrs Rogers White Chocolate Popcorn Review
Last week, I was at the Orlando Home and Garden show, and I met the nicest lady EVER there. Her name, Mrs. Rogers. Her Business, POPCORN.
While at her booth, I sampled her White Chocolate Popcorn and fell in LOVE.
It's kind of like kettle corn, only with every bite you get white chocolate flavor, which is spread out over the popcorn...not covering every piece..just the right amount.
The popcorn starts at about $21 for 6 small sized bags. More than enough to share with family and friends.
You can purchase it here.
Mrs. Rogers has 7 other flavors besides the White Chocolate Drizzle.

Every Occasion Helps you Plan your Party!
Planning a party or gathering is NOT easy! First you have to pick the location, and that can mean scouting out dozens of places, some of which can't even handle your party size.
Then, you have to send invitations, and if everyone is paying for themselves, you have to collect the money.
Finally, you have to pick a menu, because most places don't want a group of people ordering dozens of different things, it's just not possible to whip it all out in a short time frame.

They also have all the menu options online, so you can see exactly what your guests can choose from.
Finally, they have online invitations, and they can collect the payment from your guests (if you choose).
If you don't see the restaurant you want to go to on their site, you can email and ask them to add it, and they will do their best!
