Cottonelle Ultra Blogger Date NIght!

Back in February, I had the opportunity to be on a live WebEx with Patti Stanger of The Millionaire Matchmaker. (Eeeek!) I was jittery the whole time even though she couldn't see me. Patti has teamed up with Cottonelle's Ultra Switch Program to encourage people to switch it up in your relationship.

Here are a few of Patti's tips:

1. Surprise your partner. Make a favorite meal or leave a note on the nightstand. Just make it personal.

2. Get out. Commit to going on one date night a month. Just get out away from the kids and other distractions.

3. Pamper each other. Massages will bring you closer physically and emotionally.

4. Learn together. Take a cooking class. Develop a new hobby. Its a nice way to grow together.

I decided to try some of these, especially the date night part since we have been really lazy in planning our nights out. Cottonelle contacted me about going on a night on the town, complete with car service and you better believe I jumped all over that! So, tonight is our big night! We haven't been on a date night in...ummm...can't remember, so I am thrilled!

Want to get in on the excitement? Now through May 1, 2011, you can enter to win one of 90 prizes in 90 days from Cottonelle's Ultra Switch. You can win things like a digital camera, couples massage, dance lessons or luxury bedding.
Open to residents of U.S. and Canada 21 and older. Visit www.cottonelleultraswitch.com for official sweepstakes and rules.

What more winning chances? After the date night, I will be giving away a 3 month supply of Cottonellle Ultra to one of you readers!

I will be posting a recap of all the awesome next week. Tonight we are headed to DC for dinner and maybe we'll even go wild and see a movie. Yeehaw!

I recieved gift cards to cover expenses, car service and product from Cottonelle. I was in no other way compensated for this post.

Nutella Party by Mommy Parties!

I was contacted by Mommy Parties to host a Nutella party at my house. Umm, Nutella sent to me complete with goodie bags and coupons? SIGN.ME.UP.

We have neighborhood playgroup every Friday and it was my turn to host. I told everyone to skip breakfast!
Nutella is amazing on whole wheat bagels and these mini ones were perfect for the little fingers at playgroup. I think everyone loved the strawberries and bananas with Nutella. Awesome way to get the kiddos to eat fruit!
Pretzels + Nutella = Awesomesauce.
Oh, the spreader. Perfection for layin it on thick.
Did you know that Nutella is peanut, gluten and wheat free?
Everyone got goodie bags with samples and coupons.
And Cooper and I snacked on the leftovers all morning. Yum.
The key to enjoying Nutella is the appropriate serving amount. 1-2 Tbsps on whole wheat or fruit creates a balanced breakfast. Since the best breakfast is one that is eaten, go ahead and put some on your favorite breakfast food and get a good start on the day!

Dunkin Donuts Gift Card {GIVEAWAY}

A couple weeks ago, I was invited to the first local DC Dunkin Donuts blogger event. Coffee and donuts were offered to me and they thought I could possibly say no? Yeah, right.
On top of all the fun, they sent me home with all of this!
See that little donut lying on the table? Thats a USB. Perfect, right!?
I expected to eat delicious food. I expected to drink enough coffee to give me the jitters. What I didn't expect, is to learn so much about Dunkin Donuts!

Did you know their flavored coffees have NO SUGAR in them? It is a flavor shot that is added, but it doesn't contain sugar, real or artificial. And it comes in French Vanilla, Hazelnut, Caramel, Blueberry, Coconut (my favorite), Raspberry, Cinnamon and Toasted Almond. Whew. That was a lot.

Teas! They have iced tea that is available in Raspberry or Peach. Again with no sugar added. Why didn't I know this?

One of the MOST DELICIOUS things they let us sample was their new Big N Toasty. Its a hearty breakfast sandwich that is 2 pepper fried eggs, 4 slices of cherrywood smoked bacon and a slice of american cheese all on texas toast. It was incredible. Like, oh my word, I need to go get one now. Now, it does have 580 calories, BUT, I could totally split one with someone. It is really big. I also had the Egg White Veggie Flatbread. It was very good. I could eat that on a regular basis and at 280 calories, I literally could.

Ready for the giveaway?

Dunkin Donuts is giving one of Stilettos and Diapers readers a $25 gift card!
