This set is available for the first time on Disney Blu-ray Combo Pack on November 19, 2013. (Yep! Just a few short days away!)
We got a sneak peek of this great collection, and my kids were absolutely thrilled. The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning, they got to see Ariel as a small child, and learned why music was once outlawed in their underwater kingdom. In The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea, we got to meet Melody, the beautiful and strong-willed daughter of Ariel and Prince Eric! There is also a different villain, but I don't want to give too much away. You'll have to watch the movie to find out who it is! Check out these fantastic clips from the movies. I absolutely love Jodi Benson, so the first clip from "The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning" is definitely my favorite! ***Disclosure: I received a complimentary sample from Click Communications to facilitate my review.

This endearing underdog story about a crop dusting plane named Dusty with sky-high dreams touches down on Blu-ray, DVD, Digital HD and On-Demand featuring a cargo hold full of exciting bonus features. Guaranteeing hours of fun, “PLANES” is the perfect gift for “ladies and gentle-planes” of all ages this holiday season.
My kids have been simply begging to see this movie ever since I received the first press clip in my inbox. They adored Cars, so naturally. they were incredibly enthusiastic about following Dusty and his friends in their adventures. Okay, I admit it....I was pretty stoked, too! Recently, we received a copy of the movie on Blu-Ray to check out for ourselves, finally. When "PLANES" arrived in our mailbox, my little ones starting clapping and jumping up and down. By this I mean my teenager as well as my preschoolers. My entire family was excited, to be honest! ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review.

It's thick, creamy, and has a delicious tanginess that delights my tastebuds. I especially love drizzling some Canadian Raw Honey on it. Delicious!
While Greek Yogurt is a breakfast staple, it can be used in many other ways, too! I actually use it in place of sour cream in recipes like Stroganoff since I absolutely hate, hate, HATE sour cream. It works out very well! I also love making sauces and marinades using Greek Yogurt. This works especially well when I make Indian or Middle Eastern dishes. Greek Yogurt is super versatile, and can definitely be enjoyed during every meal. Recently, I received a copy of The Greek Yogurt Cookbook by Lauren Kelly, CN. This great book offers 125 different, inventive ways to incorporate this superfood into your diet. Here's more info about the book : ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review. No other compensation was provided, and all opinions are 100% honest and have not been influenced in any way.*** As a mom, I am always looking for great meal and snack options that can be served to my kids and their friends. Of course while my own children don't have any food allergies or sensitivities, some of their friends do. I am always happy to accommodate our menu to cater to these different dietary needs. After all, what kid wants to miss out on eating what everyone else is? To a child, that could feel like a punishment of sorts. It doesn't seem fair, if you ask me.
So in order to make sure everyone will be happy when we have gatherings and playdates, I have a collection of cookbooks that will help me find the perfect recipe that everyone can enjoy. I don't want to leave anyone out. Recently, I got to check out a great new cookbook, 201 Gluten-Free Recipes for Kids by Carrie S. Forbes. This is a great resource for those who have celiac disease or gluten sensitivities. And the recipes are FUN, too! Here's more about the book: Cold and flu season is officially upon us. It seems that here in North-East Ohio, people are definitely feeling the effects already. At my husband's workplace alone, 5 out of 8 employees have already been bitten by the cold and flu bug. It's a similar story at my teen's middle school. Loads of kids have been sick lately, and by some miracle, we have not been affected....Yet.
Luckily, there are some simple things you can do to help prevent the cold weather sickies, as we like to call them. It's better to prevent sickness all together if possible, right? ***Disclosure: I received complimentary samples to facilitate my review.

I have so many close friends and family who are basically not themselves until after a nice, hot cup of tea! I enjoy the occasional cup, myself! But the biggest tea drinker in my life? Well, that would have to be my 13 year old son, Kyle. He absolutely loves drinking hot teas of many different varieties, and is always up for trying the newest blends.
This year, I will be making Kyle's day on Christmas. You see, he will be receiving the ultimate tea sampling collection from Mighty Leaf Tea! If you haven't heard of this brand before, you're missing out. They offer the best quality, premium teas in the world. ***Disclosure: I received a complimentary sample from Click Communications to facilitate my review.

So when I learned that there is a brand new, 2 movie set coming out, I became pretty excited. After all, Ariel's story didn't begin OR end with The Little Mermaid!
