PPZ: Dawn of the Dreadfuls Book Trailer

March 16, 2010 by Tracy  
Filed under FUN STUFF, General

The sequel to the book Pride and Prejudice Zombies is almost here and the book trailer is pretty cool.  They should go straight to the making of the movie.   English accents, pretty white dresses and Zombies, a perfect combination.  Just add Natalie Portman and Clive Owen and I will be first in line.   I posted the trailer of Dawn of the Dreadfuls here for your enjoyment.  Zombies beware…. the Bennet girls are ready!  Are You?

Here is more abou the book which releases on March 23rd.   ”Readers will witness the birth of a heroine in Dawn of the Dreadfuls--a thrilling prequel set four years before the horrific events of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. As our story opens, the Bennet sisters are enjoying a peaceful life in the English country side. They idle away the days reading, gardening, and daydreaming about future husbands--until a funeral at the local parish goes strangely and horribly awry.”

American Greetings: Photoworks Studio Books Review

March 16, 2010 by Tracy  
Filed under Mom Central, Product Reviews

Photoworks is a free website where people can upload their digital photos and share them, buy individual copies, or make and buy a special photo book.  We don’t have a photo printer yet, so all of my digital pictures are stored on my computer.  I was excited to participate in a Mom Central review of Photoworks for this reason.  We were asked to create a baby book on their website. 

First, they ask you to sign up, which is free and short.  They have a big selection of baby albums, so it was fun to choose.  I immediately picked Noah’s Ark, because that is our baby’s name. ( JUST CLICK ON ALL OF THE PHOTOS BELOW FOR A CLOSER VIEW)

 

After choosing your album, I followed the instructions to upload pictures for it.  I am used to doing this every day, so for me it that is an easy process.  For newbies, there are directions that are easy to follow. 

Once your photos are loaded, they will show at the top of the screen for selection.  The next step is to choose which photo you want on each page and to add text.  This is easily done by clicking on the photo you want and dragging it into the empty box.  If it isn’t the correct size, a ! will appear and tell you to choose a picture that will fit.  For the text, just click on the text box and type it in.  This is the front cover picture I chose.

Here is another example of one of the other pages.  On each page it is the same proccess, click and drag. 

I was happy with the process.  It was easy to follow and user friendly.  The click and drag process is impressive.  This is a lot easier then scrapbooking, not to mention a time saver.  I don’t think I could afford to do this for every picure, but i would happily pay for an album for each child because their pictures are a treasured keepsake.

Disclosure:  I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of American Greetings PhotoWorks and received a free photo book to facilitate my review.”

Get to know the thermal oxidizer

March 15, 2010 by Tracy  
Filed under Sponsors

Are you familiar with what a thermal oxidizer is?  It is a process unit that is used to control air pollution in chemical plants that decompose hazardous gases.  The gases are released into the atmosphere after reaching a high temperature.

In general, the concept is to control the level of air pollution caused by companies that would naturally submit lots of pollutants based on common chemical business processes.

Naturally, the use of a thermal oxidizer contributes to a more environmentally friendly process of decomposing hazardous gases.  This leads to cleaner and more efficient air control and quality and it is a good reflection on a company that uses modern technology to control what it puts into the air.

Companies that use a thermal oxider service are focused on maintaining the quality of the air for everyone while maintaining safe and pure work environment for employees.

Listen Along Storybook 8 Book Set Giveaway

March 14, 2010 by Tracy  
Filed under Childrens Books, Product Giveaways

Sterling Books has some of the cutest children’s books.   My six year old and I have enjoyed reading several of them in the past.   I was excited to learn about their new program to encourage parents and children to read.   They took several of their popular books, including Cesar Takes a Break and Cowboy Camp and made a website of free audiobooks to enhance the reading of these books.

Currently the website has eight audiobooks available.   You can listen or download them for free.   We received Cesar to try out and Nolan (who is six) has read and listened half a dozen times already.   The voices on the audio are adorable and kept his interest the whole time and Cesar is a long book.   At first I was surprised the audio didn’t have beeps to show children when to turn the pages, but Nolan figured it out just fine.   For younger children, a parent would need to help out. It is still important, in my opinion, for parents to read to their children every day, but audiobooks are a fun addition to reading.

You can purchase Sterling books on their website or on Amazon. The website for the audiobooks is http://www.listenalongstorybook.com  Here is a link to a video about how the audio books are made.

Healthy Choice All Natural Entries

March 14, 2010 by Tracy  
Filed under Mom Central, Product Reviews

I am ready to lose the baby weight.   OK, the weight I already had even before I got pregnant.   That is one reason I chose to apply to review the new Healthy Choice meals.   I have liked some of their selections in the past, so I wanted to try their new meals. They sent me two of their meals from the All Natural Selections line, which features all natural ingredients and vegetarian choices.   I tried the Roasted Red Pepper Marinara, which I really liked and the Tortellini Primavera Parmesan, which I didn’t.   The Tortellini is made with whole wheat pasta, and I could tell the difference in taste.   Normally I don’t mind whole wheat, but for some reason this meal didn’t appeal to me.   I did really like the Red Pepper Marinara’s taste.   I think with their meals, once you find the ones you like, just stick with those.

I like to buy Healthy Choice for a couple of reasons.   They have a big selection and variety to choose from.   It is easy to keep track of calories, and fat and if you are on weight watcher’s they have the points on the box.   Their website http://www.healthychoice.com/ has a page with coupons and a newsletter where you can keep up with new products and future coupons.   There is a coupon for their new ice cream right now, so that is next on my grocery list.
