Rethink What Matters Bare Escentuals Giveaway

I'm excited to introduce my readers to something thought provoking and a new giveaway for a great product!

Rethink What Matters invites women nationwide to shake up their foundation and sound off on topics that are more than just skin-deep—from going bare in public to discussing what freedom really feels like. Each week at RethinkWhatMatters.com, a new discussion topic has been featured with five questions for all to answer, share with their friends and have the chance to instantly win free products and other fantastic goodies. New topics and products will be featured weekly, posted each Friday to the site. This week’s topic is “Rethink The Need to Find Yourself”! I took the quiz and was surprised by the results (it tells you what percentage of women agree with you)! You should take it too!

This week in connection with Rethink What Matters I am hosting a giveaway for Bare Escentuals Rare Minerals Active Triple Treatment Eye Cream!

"RareMinerals Active Triple Treatment Eye Cream is a daily multi-benefit eye treatment that delivers the top three essentials to keep eyes looking youthful by diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, restoring firmness and reducing puffiness. Our RareMinerals ActiveSoil Complex, which functions as mineral electrolytes when in liquid form, harnesses the skin’s own power to absorb and retain moisture while also effectively delivering essential minerals and nutrients to the skin. The addition of Marine Peptides help strengthen and contour the appearance of the eye area for increased firmness, while also reducing the appearance of dark circles and puffiness by flushing out underlying pigment and toxins to rejuvenate the eye area instantly and over time."

This sounds like a great product to me (I have not tried it).

Valentine's Day Swap Package Goodies

Today I received my goodies from my partner in the Valentine's Day Swap! My great partner was Carrie Miyake from Over 30 Mommy! Carrie has an adorable daughter who just had a birthday! I love that she calls her "Wiggle Bean"! I was excited to be assigned someone with a kid because she is so cute (being an education major makes me love kids)! Here is a picture of all of the great stuff I got in my box today!



Carrie sent me tons of great stuff! I got cute v-day pencils (which will spice up taking notes in class), Reese's peanut butter cups (Yay! YUMMY!), conversation hearts, lollipops, and 2 kinds of coffee (again, yay! The Godiva one smells delicious!)! I also got a cute "XOX" attached Wilton Cookie Cutter and some handy Wilton Silicone Heart Baking Cups (which I've already used in an upcoming yummy product review)! She also sent me some lovely socks and a wonderful soft stuffed dog with body wash and lotion (that smells great)! I'm so happy with my assortment of goodies! I was really surprised with the quantity and quality of stuff I got!

I also enjoyed the note she sent with it explaining why she picked out everything! Thanks so much Carrie! I appreciate everything! It shows that you really read my blog and my survey! I can tell you took the time to think about stuff before buying it! I love it all! I only hope you like the stuff I sent you as well (I wish I had included more in the package)! :)

I had so much fun participating in this swap and can't wait to do another!

PJSalvage Cupcake Pajamas Review

I received the cute pajamas pictured above from PJSalvage! They are the Cupids Closet Sateen PJ Set! I love these pajamas because they are so cute! Anyone that knows me or has been reading my blog for a while knows that I love baking and I LOVE cupcakes! So, these pajamas are perfect for me!

The pajamas are also pretty comfortable! The tag in the back is a bit itchy at times, but other than that, they are great! I like how the pajama pants have a drawstring, it makes them fit better! I haven't really worn many button-up pajamas shirts, but this is kinda nice. I like how the big black buttons go with the black dots on the pajama print. The bottoms also have a line of fake black buttons to match!

Overall, a great set of pajamas! PJSalvage carries many other adorable/wonderful pajama sets! If they are anything like these, I'm sure they are fantastic!

Wilton Giant Heart Pan and Giveaway

My boyfriend and I got to use a Wilton Giant Heart Cookie Pan to make an adorable chocolate chip cookie! The pan is designed for one package of refrigerated dough! I was also sent some sprinkles to decorate the cookie with. Here is a picture of the cookie before we baked it!



The directions said not to stretch the cookie out and make it touch the sides of the pan, but let it sit in the middle. After baking it I see why it said this. The cookies spreads out a lot during baking. I also got some cookie icing to decorate the cookie with. Here is a picture of the cookie after we baked it!




It was really good! It was also very fun and easy to make! My only concern is that it was a little hard to get the center completely done. However, it's still very easy to bake and fun to decorate! The giant cookie was gone within a day or two! The pan can also be used for brownies and pizza! I think the pan will come in handy in the future!

WIN! THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED!

Wilton is giving one reader a Giant Heart Cookie Pan of their own plus decorating supplies!

To enter: Go to Wilton and tell me what you would would make with the pan and decorations (cookie, pizza, special occasion, etc.).

Febreze Flameless Luminary Review

I recently received a Febreze Flameless Luminary to review. I was excited to receive one of these because it's from Febreze, which as we all should know makes wonderful smelling and long lasting products! I was also pleased to get one because it's flameless! We aren't allowed to have candles in our dorm rooms because of fire hazards. However, I believe we can have one of these!

I love how the little light in the middle of the base sort of shimmers/shines so that it gives the appearance of being a real candle! It's great for any home and because each of the scents is a different shade, you can match it with any home decor. It's also really easy to switch shades and change the mood of the room! I really like my luminary and can't wait to get new scents for it!

Also, you can Fan Febreze on Facebook and/or Follow Febreze on Twitter for periodic contests and giveaways of fabulous Febreze products!

Cheryl And Co. Cookie Review and Giveaway

I am lucky enough to have been sent some of the the best cookies ever from Cheryl and Co.! I received a Valentine's Day Sampler pictured above! It contains a yummy assortment of cookies and desserts!

It has wonderful chocolate chip cookies and oatmeal raisin cookies! I always love a good chocolate chip cookie and these hit the spot! I usually just "like" an oatmeal raisin cookie, but these I love! They are chewy and taste perfect! I only wish they were bigger! :)

The Dancing Hearts Gift Tower also comes with 2 fudge brownies, 4 confection pretzel clusters, and 2 drizzled pretzels! I ate one of the brownies and gave the other to my mom since she really likes brownies! We both enjoyed them lots! The confection pretzel clusters make for a great little snack! I enjoy being able to eat something from the set that isn't too big! The drizzled pretzels are also delicious!



Lastly, are my 2 favorites from the set: buttercream frosted heart cut-out cookies (pictured above) and frosted triple chocolate cookies! I LOVED both of these cookies! My boyfriend got to try the heart cut-out cookies and thought they were great! Both cookies are just delicious! I'm forcing myself to not eat all of them at one time... I want them to last!

Everything comes individually wrapped and tastes fresh! The cookies actually crumble in my hand! Cheryl And Co. products are definitely worth the money! I love them!

WIN! THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED!

Cheryl and Co. is generously offering one very lucky Laughing Lindsay reader a Valentine's Day Sampler of their own!

Dear John Review

I recently had the pleasure of getting Dear John by Nicholas Sparks in audiobook edition to review! It is read by actor and voiceover artist Holter Graham. I was really excited to review this, even in audio book format. I wasn't sure what to expect from an audio book edition. I was afraid that it would be boring to have to listen to it on cd, but it wasn't. Holter Graham has that slow southern voice that some may find to be too slow or boring. However, I think it made the story that much better. I think his voice fit well with the story and the character.

The story didn't turn out like I thought it would. While this story is sure to leave any Nicholas Sparks fan happy, I wasn't prepared for the ending. I was so sure that something would happen to John and that Savannah would be left alone. However, I was very wrong. In the end, someone is alone and sad. As a reader I'm left wanting more. I can't believe that Savannah would do what she did to John.

I don't want to giveaway the ending, just in case you want to read it or watch it. Let me assure you though it's still a tear-jerker! As a college student getting an endorsement in special education, I do appreciate the fact that Savannah is majoring in it. I also love that the story brings more attention to Autism and Asperger's. I must say I was impressed with Nicholas's skill in weaving that into the story.

Dear John is a soon-to-be-released major motion picture from Sony Pictures starring Channing Tatum ("G.I. Joe") and Amanda Seyfried ("Mamma Mia"). It comes to theaters on February 5! Check out the Dear John the movie website to see a trailer!
