Miss Blue's PlayMG surprise!

It is no secret that we are complete
tech brats in The Dollhouse.
Daddy has his PS4, Mighty M
has his Innotab, I have my tablet,
and Miss Blue is constantly
playing on my phone.
Her Innotab was becoming
to kiddie for her.

Well Miss Blue has been doing 
amazing in school.
Straight A's, re-selected for book
club and moving up in her reading group.
We are so proud of her and I wanted
to get her something super special.
Over the holiday I had stumbled 
upon a giveaway for a 
I showed Miss Blue and her eyes lit up!
This was the perfect thing for my ghoul.
Since she had asked for a phone
for Christmas , but seriously she wont 
be getting a phone till she is in her teens.
Not only was this device everything
her little heart desired.
The spokesgirl is Olivia Holt
(you might know her from
Girl VS Monster).
Olivia is one of her favorite actress
at the moment, so that made her
love it even more.
The more I thought about it
the more I knew we had to get this
for Miss Blue.
After new years I received 
the most exciting email.
I was selected as the winner.
Out of 500 entries I was the one.
Honestly I was jumping up and down.
It shortly arrived, but we decided we 
were going to wait to give it to Miss Blue.
As a reward for doing so good in school.
So it sat on the pool table for weeks.
Which was so hard cause I had
to keep it a secret and I was beyond
excited to give it to her.
Last night was the night.
Daddy handed her the box.
She slowly opened it, with
a huge grin on her face.
First thing in the box was 
this sweet little note from Lori
aka Wellconnectedmom.
I don't think Miss Blue expected 
what was in the box.
Her face lit up even more 
when she realized what it was.
The PlayMG came with a bunch 
of goodies too.
24GB
Charger/ UBS cord
Memory cards
$10 Master card
Not to mention this really neat slide 
out box for safe keeping.
It didn't come with a case.
Luckily Amazon had a 
blue PlayMG case on sale.
We ordered one of those 
to make sure Miss Blues 
super awesome android device 
stays in good shape.
This is something she is going to 
have and use for a very long time.
So what is a PlayMG you ask....
Its a android gaming system designed
for younger people.
It has a 4 inch touch screen
Front facing camera
Slip pocket design and opening
for a lanyard.
It also has a built in 
family calibration system.
This way you can add fund to 
your kids virtual wallet.
Also keep a eye on what 
they spend their time playing.
It comes loaded with fun apps.
Not to mention all the fun apps
it has access to in the
 Google Play store.
She has already downloaded
Barbie word search, Ninja Math,
Vampire Hospital and a few others.
You know I am all about the educational apps.
Oh and it has wifi so Miss Blue can get
online and go to her favorite sites.
It's basically a smart phone
without the contract, monthly bills,
or phone service.
It is just a tad bit bigger then 
my My Touch as you can see.
It gives her the feel of a phone.
 She is loving the touch screen.
I woke up this morning and she was already playing on it.
 And I have a feeling she wont be putting it down much today.

 
Miss Blue has been working hard 
this year in school.
We are all very proud of her!
Not to mention she is an amazing kid.
We love her so very much!
She has earned this, and totally deserves it!
Want to get your tween a PlayMG?

The 24G is currently on sale for 
$149.99 reg: $179.99

Hector Baby Vampyre Bat- Vamplets


Vamplets are so deadly cute.
They started out with some adorable baby vampyres.
But it has turned into a nursery full of 
horrifically cute and dangerously adorable pets.
Just waiting to be adopted by you!

I remember the first time I saw Vamplets
it was on Cultured Moms Facebook page.
She was talking about how she saw
 them at the toy fair that year.
I instantly fell in love and wanted to know
more about these little dark darlings.

It is a few years later and I have
been a loyal fan ever since.
Not only does this company make
great little creatures.
They support save the bats!
Which  is A++ in my book.
Nightcare Nanny (being  so amazingly sweet)
sent me a package, it arrived yesterday.
The most adorable little bat was in the box.
His name is Hector and oh my he is lovely.
I am very impressed with the quality and 
all the detail put into him.
The material he is made of is really nice too.
His fur is so soft.
Perfect he is!
Included was condolence of adoption paper.
Attached was a baby werewolf pin.

Instead of me telling you how about we show you.

Hector has a spot on my dinning room buffet
where him and Count Vlad  Von Gloom hang out.

Miss Blue was very excited when bed time came.
She ran and got Hector and brought 
him to bed with her.
We thought about it though she is a toss and turn sleeper.
Didn't want him to get wrecked so we made him 
a bed next to her bed. 

He was very happy about this.
Miss Blue gave him good night kisses too.

Want to get a Vamplet or a Vampet of your own?
Their site is so much fun.
Make sure to explore and see what trouble
you can find in Gloomvania.

Hurry though they sell out quick.
Everyone wants a little darling of their own.
I know my little guy asks me daily to feed the baby vampyre.
I think it is over and beyond adorable.

Go like their Facebook page too.

I can not thank Nightcare Nanny enough.
You made my little girls day!
Little Hector made her very happy.
And I think he is really happy at his new home.
=)

Shout Factory First Grand Prize Winner!

First before you read this post you need ask yourself
are you looking for a place to get all your 
Pop Culture needs.
If yes, then I suggest you go and like
and enter their 
When I was 10 contest. 
Click the link
They are still going to pick two more
random GRAND PRIZE winners.
Get your name in that hat of awesomeness!
$100 to Shout Factory is something to smile about!
They are celebrating
10 YEARS OF PUTTING POP CULTURE ON A PEDESTAL.

A week or so ago I was going thru my
spam folder and I saw a email that read.

Shout Factory's "When I was 10" contest Grand Prize Winner.

I opened it in excitement!
And good thing I had, this was their second time
contacting me about winning.
If I didn't reply I would have lost my prize.
Jeff and Evan were awesome!
I was told to go to the site and pick out whatever I wanted.
I quick texted my hubby and let him know!
He came home that night all
excited and ready to pick out something good.
My choices were




I saw all the Mystery Science Theater they had.
I know how badly my hubby wanted the 

Mystery Science Theater 3000

MST3K: Volume XVI [Collector's Edition].

I decided to let him pick out whatever he wanted.
It was the nice wife thing to do.
We sat on the site for hours.
But then he made his mind up.
We sent in his choices and
in a matter of days look what has shown up.
They get a big A+++ oh and they recycle!

Watch the video to see what goodies are in the box!

This video for some reason looks all wacky.
On my computer it was much
clearer and didn't cut off words.
Sorry about that, also I am sure I pronounced most
of the names wrong but honestly I haven't the slightest.

We will be watching Mystery Science for awhile,
9 disk to be exact.
I want to give a big THANK YOU to 
the SHOUT FACTORY crew.
You have made my hubby very happy!
Thanks for the contest and for being
A for Awesome!

Fashion Union gave me a Christmas surprise!



I have been a huge fan of Fashion Union for awhile now.
They have super cute clothing for reasonable prices.
Seriously you need to go and check out the site!
Right before Christmas I received a direct message
from Fashion Union on Twitter.
It was to let me know I was chosen as one
of the winner for the FU Xmas Win
Pinterest boards contest.
Here was my board.
I had a lot of fun making it.
And it only made me love Fashion Union more!

I was beyond thrilled to be picked as a winner.
 5 winners were picked randomly.
My prize was a gift certificate for 50 pounds.
I sat going through their site for three days.
They just have so much to choose from.
The excitement kept rising too 
while picking everything out.
One word of advice though when 
ordering from Fashion Union have
a size converter opened in another window.
The sizes on the site are European 
so it can get a bit confusing.
I just went with small on everything
and crossed my fingers it all would fit.

Sooooooo what did I get?
Here is a pic in case the video doesn't work.

Sadly I don't see the skull skate dress on the site anymore
I may have gotten the last one.
In the video you really can't see it but the fabric
has a pretty golden shimmer to it.
The fabric is stunning I was just expecting a cotton dress.
It was a very fancy surprise how nice the dress is.


Warning this video contains a lot of twirling and posing.
I can't help it I am a happy doll!

Fashion Union is 100%

BYOU Magazine


I was really excited when contacted about BYOU Magazine.
Being that I have a seven year old  darling daughter,
I knew this was a magazine that
 we would be very interested in.
Its main focus is to help young girls develop 
a healthy self-esteem.
Encouraging to embrace their own and unique self.
Miss Blue was very excited when it arrived.
It was in a shiny pink package,
her eyes lit up when she saw it.

She got a very pleasant surprise when she opened it.
Olivia Holt was on the cover.
She had just watched Girl Vs Monster last week.
Also she had received some Disney Signed clothing
for Christmas this year.
Right away she went "Mommy that's my girl!"


We decided that we would leave the 
Olivia Holt story for bedtime story.
I told her to look through it.
She was smiling the whole time.

This magazine is full of great stuff.
Be Fearless in 2013 is right on the first 
page when you open it.
The table of contents has three parts.
Features
Specials
Faves In Every Issue

What is really great about this magazine
is that is is real girls telling their stories, giving their advice.
Then as a extra bonus it has interviews and questions
answered by young actresses and singers.
Girls young girls would be familiar with from TV shows and movies.

They also are running two contest in this issue.
A pet photo contest and 
Where Do You B-You?
Enter by submitting a photo of your
daughter with her magazine in a interesting place.
Miss Blue is already trying to think of a great 
place to bring it to get a good shot.

There is a lot of smiling faces through
out the pages of girls from 8-14.


My favorite part was reading about 
the young girls with their own businesses.
It was great for Miss Blue to read showing her
if she put her mind to it she could  become
successful at a young age.
It is all about determination and great ideas.

Other fun pages were:
Quiz: Climbing Towers
B-Smart Puzzles
BYOU Mail
Girls making a difference: Girl Talk
Helping girls through the drama years.
Shining your heartlight bright:
Beauty's inner and outer beauty tips.
Internationally speaking- Say Happy Holidays in 10 languages
Ask Cassie- Teen Anti-bullying advocate
Star Signs

That night at bed time Miss Blue 
had her BYOU magazine in hand.
We cuddled reading the Olivia Holt interview.
We learned she is a very sweet girl.
And that her whole family moved to LA 
so she could pursue her dreams.
It was a very sweet interview.
Added bonus it has two mini posters of her.
Miss Blue was beyond excited.

I feel this magazine has a lot of 
great articles and advice for young girls.
I felt though the quizzes were a little
to old for Miss Blue.
But it was still fun taking them.
I remember that was always my favorite part 
of girly magazines.
It was the first time Blue took one
or that she got her Horoscope read to her.
Over all it was a great experience.
I would defiantly recommend the BYOU Magazine
if you have a daughter in the 8-14 range.
My daughter is at that age where she is 
developing her self confidence and honestly
I want it to be through the roof.
Anything that can make her smile more 
and feel better about herself.
I am 100% behind and this magazine did just that.


Also if you have a daughter let them check out the BYOU website.

Spells and Potions Boogie Board

Last month I participated in
 Boogie Boards  Halloween contest.
To create a Halloween costume made of candy.
 The catch to the contest was you couldn't use paper.
I love contest where you have to be creative.
Thought about it and then I came up with the sweetest idea.

The Cupcake Witch

Made from 100% sugar
Caution: This costume is EXTREMELY SWEET!!

I used a big black dinner plate, icing and cupcake toppings.
I entered it right away, I was excited.
Really glad I did because they loved it too.
Awarded  me with a
Spells and Potions Boogie Board.

Also a entry into the Facebook vote contest.
Which I didn't win but was really close.
Thank you everyone that like my pic!
It meant a lot cause this was my creation.

It arrived shortly after the contest.
And here is a little video to show you it!



The Spells and Potions Boogie Board was made special for the 
contest so you won't be able to buy one.

The Boogie Board tablet's pressure-sensitive LCD
 writing surface creates lines of different thickness based 
on how hard you push - just like paper and pen!
Think geek has the plain black JOT writer for $34.99

On the boogie board site has a customize button.
You could put you business name on it or decorate it 
however you like.
Um can't think what to get your boss.
Get him a Boogie Board with the companys name on it.
There is also a Boogie Board with binder ring holes on it 
so you are able to just clip it in.
They come in sizes of  8.5 or 10.5.

The Spells and Potions is a JOT writer.
Meaning it is just to write down quick notes
replacing post it and memo pads.

The RIP writer allows you to save and
transfer your work and turn into a computer file.
This taking the place of sketchpads and notebooks.

I am really excited and happy to have 
the Spells and Potions one.
I do wish though it would have come with 
a sleeve and a stylus holder.
But I love it so much.
If there was any Boogie Board 
that was perfect for me it  is this one.

Make sure to go and like Boogie Board on  Facebook

Also check out there site and take a look at 
all the different writers they have available.
http://www.improvelectronics.com/us/en/index.html

Christmas is here the Boogie Board
 would make a great gift for anyone on your list.



A BIG THANK YOU to Kristen and the rest
of the Boogie Board crew.
I am glad you appreciated  my sweet creation.

My Spells and Potions Boogie Board is 100%

Calling all you SEXY felines.
Honeycat offers products ranging from emollient
 rich bath bombs, sassy lip balm,

milk bath and that is just naming a few.

This company is so hip.
I love all the names of the products.
For example their shower gels names are
- On the Prowl
-You got to be Kitten Me
-Blood Sudz
There is an emphasis on the cat as a symbol of female sexuality,
 and sensuality.
 All of the products relate figuratively, 
colloquially, or literally to the cat. 

Seriously cute!
With Christmas coming up they have great gift sets too,
they would make for the Purrrrrrfect present !






I got a Honeycat surprise in the mail yesterday.
My ups man handed me a small box.
I wasn't sure what it was at first.
Then I saw the Honeycat logo,
and smelt something sweet.
Then it hit me I must have been picked as
one of the 5 winners for the Frisky Friday giveaway.
YAY!!!

I was excited!
I have been a fan of them for a long time.
I just love the style.
In my box was a 
Cat on a Hot Tin candle.
The smell of this candle was amazing.
I mean I smelt it through the box.
Oh I adore the box, it had 
the sexy Honeycat logo.






It is a coconut milk / mango pure soy candle.
And it smells amazingly good!!!
I have not even lit it yet, I have it just sitting by my bed. 
My whole room smells sweet.
You can tell just by looking at it that this 
candle is made of good stuff. 



I can't wait to get my  paws on some more
Honeycat products.
I am seriously impressed!
I love how the theme is carried out,
from the packaging to the name.
