Great Mothers Day 5k Race #spon

Mother's Day is only a couple short weeks away.  While many moms will be sleeping in and enjoying breakfast in bed, I'll be waking up early and running my first 5k race ever, the Great Mother's Day 5k Race.  I haven't even run 3 miles since leaving the Marine Corp Reserves in 2002.  Don't worry, I'm doing a lot of practicing with my Run5k app, gearing up for my big race.

The Great Mother's Day 5k Race will take place at Al Lopez Park in St. Petersburg, Florida on Sunday, May 12.  Race registration will begin at 8 am, with the race starting at 9 am.  It's a 5 kilometer (3.1 miles) walk/run race for participants of all ages.  Jogging strollers are welcome. (I'll be running with mine) Kids under 7 can participate free of charge.

Tampa Bay Great Cloth Diaper Change 2013 #GCDC2013 #clothdiapers

Saturday, April 20, parents around the world gathered at 181 location in 17 countries to break the Guinness Book world record for the number of babies changed into cloth diapers at one time.  The Tampa Bay Great Cloth Diaper Change event was held in St. Petersburg at The Pier.  The Pier is set to be demolished in May, so I was glad for the opportunity to visit it before it's torn down.

Giveaway: Tropical Traditions Raw Honey

Welcome to the Tropical Traditions Raw Honey Giveaway

 Sponsored by Tropical Traditions

Raw Honey has been shown to provide a multitude of health benefits.  From wound treatment to allergy relief, raw honey contains many advantages to its commercial counterpart.  In my opinion, it also has a richer, more complex flavor.  The flavor itself can vary by region and even by season, depending upon the plants in bloom at that time.  Never tried raw honey?  Now is your chance to win a jar.

Tropical Traditions carries a number of different organic products from coconut oil to household cleaning products.  They even carry Canadian Raw Honey.  Raw honey is a honey that has not been heated and processed like many store bought honeys, which means it has more nutritious value. Check out the Full Review by Jenn, Mom of Two Munchkins.

Giveaway: One Month of Meal Planning from Kates Thoughts on Food

Kate is a military wife who loves cooking!  She had a dream to open up her own restaurant one day, but, as a military wife, she wouldn't be in one place long enough to do so.  Instead, she came up with the plan of Kate's thoughts for food.  It allows her to share her love of cooking no matter where you may live.  

The meal plans provide recipes for the week, as well as a grocery list.  The shopping list includes a reference to the respective recipe.  Some of the items can be made ahead of time and refrigerated.  This helps save on time.  The meal planning is well thought out and easy to use.  Every Friday an email will be sent out with your meal plan!

This giveaway will be for one month of the standard meal planning!

Review: Fresh Baby Adult 4-Section MyPlate #spon

When it comes to losing weight, one of the top complaints I've heard is portion control.  Many people I've talked to acknowledge that they need to eat less, but they struggle with knowing when to say when.  Additionally, the Standard American Diet (SAD) is severely lacking in fruits and vegetables, while also containing excessive amounts of protein and starch.  Fresh Baby, makers of the Kid's 4-Section MyPlate, have now come out with an adult version to help adults with their struggles with portion control.  The 8" plate, with dividers for proteins, grains, fruits and vegetables, serves as a visual reminder to eat smaller portions of a variety of foods at each meal.

The Adult 4-Section MyPlate is based upon the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) new MyPlate Food Guidance System.  MyPlate serves as a visual aid for adults who want to make smarter food choices.  The plate not only controls the portion size, but also helps improve the balance and variety of the meal.  Just like the Kid's 4-Section MyPlate, the adult plate encourages you to eat a protein, grain, fruit and vegetable at every meal.

I like the plate because it does help me better control my portions.  It's also designed to be more appealing for an adult, featuring a scrolling design around the edge like that of a dinner plate.  I was worried that it would be more "cartoonish" like the kid's plate, but it's actually pretty stylish, especially when there is food covering the sections.  I also like that the plate is dish-washer safe, but, like the kid's plate, I don't like that it's not microwave safe.


The Adult 4-Section MyPlate is made of 100% Melamine.  It is free from BP-A, Phthlate, Cadmium and Lead.
