Winter Comfort Food

Happy Holidays! Cold weather, comfy sweaters   and more importantly winter comfort food are my thing this time of the year.

What makes you more nice and toasty during the holidays than a cup of tea and some delicious soup?

I received Annies Homegrown soup in the tomato flavor to try.

One word : HEAVEN!

I looked up recipes online nohow to incorporate tomato soup into our dinner. The one that made my tummy happy was grilled cheese and tomato soup.

We enjoyed this so much. I even made grilled cheese roll ups for my son to dip into the soup.

The soup was so creamy and rich. I will definitely be repurchasing. 

BRB, going to start looking up more recipes for this gem!

Influenster Target Spring Preview Box

Hey girl hey.

I am going to talk about something exciting today…I recently was selected by Influenster for their Target Spring Preview box! and even more exciting to me is that in my box I received a set of MD Complete skincare products to test and review.

I will be turning 30 in September and along with getting older comes its own set of skin issues. This particular set is especially for anti aging. Nothing like preventative maintenance!

MD Complete was created by Dr Brian Zelickson,  an internationally renowned dermatologist and inventor. 

When I opened the box there was five products in this set:

Restoring Cleanser

Eye Wrinkle Remover

Advanced Wrinkle Remover

Youthful Skin Shield

Non Irrritating Pro Peel

In a nutshell, the MD Complete says its simple and easy to use- Just 3 steps, twice a day, and a monthly boost.

AM Steps:

Rinse face.

Then pat Eye Wrinkle Remover under eyes. (Pic shown below in PM steps)
Next use Advanced Eye Wrinkle Remover for entire face. (Pic shown below in PM steps) 

Last maasage a laye of Youthful Skin Shield  over face next and chest.

PM steps:

Clean face with Restoring Cleanser.

Pat Eye Wrinkle Remover under eyes.

For first two weeks use Advanced Wrinkle Remover in PM every other day. Week 3 increase to PM every day. Gradually increase daily use to AM AND PM.

                                                 


















Take a break for seven days from the above steps and use the Non Irritating Pro Peel. First day leave on 1 minute, second day 2 minutes and so on and so forth.

SEEMS SO EASY AND IM EXCITED FOR THE RESULTS!

Best thing is you can find this at Target!

And thank you to Influenster for sending me this for review and testing purposes!

Hola! -Dino Lingo

Hi guys. Been a while .....super busy with work and the holidays! I just wanted to let you in on a great thing I came across....Dino Lingo! If any of you parents out there are trying to teach your kids a second..third..or fourth language this is a great way to do it!. Being a Mexican American its important for me to teach my son Spanish.....granted my spanish is not that great to begin with..but me and him learn together. Dino Lingo is a language learning program for kids thats gradually teaches children a variety of languages of your choice....Spanish, Italian, German, Russian..me and Aaiden watched the Spanish set:

Spanish Set

and we loved it. The characters are engaging and colorful ...which is plus to keeping children entertained!

I think once me and him have mastered the Spanish set, we can work on the French set. Ive always wanted to go to France!
