P.F. Changes Home Menu Meals for 2


I was recently contacted by email from Unilever based on a blog post I did, while getting my book signed by Joyce Meyer. In it, I shared how much I enjoyed P.F. Chang's food that night and she wanted to know if I wanted to try the newly released P.F. Chang's Home Menu Meals for 2 now in the frozen food section of the local grocery store to review.

How could I say No, knowing how much I enjoy their food. So last night I made Shrimp in Garlic Sauce with a side of fried rice. Can you say, "Amazing!"

It was so simple too. Not realizing how late the time had become, I thought about something quick and easy to make and remembered, I had recently purchased this during my last grocery shopping trip. Reading the directions straight from the freezer, all I had to do was add the ingredients to a hot skillet and cover for 10 minutes. After that, remove the lid and stir for 3 more minutes just to let the sauce thicken.

Meanwhile I made some rice, added some fried eggs, soy sauce and butter and served it alongside the meal for the three of us. Trust me there was enough even though it states its clearly for two. In all honestly, it was as good as anything I could have ordered from P.F. Chang's and I made it so quick and to the table in under 15 minutes. This is perfect for moms who want something quick and easy but not filled full of fat and unhealthy. Served with a side of rice makes the perfect meal.

I received a coupon compliments of Unilever to review and try any of the eight varieties that P.F. Chang's makes available from Orange Chicken to Sweet and Sour Chicken. I chose the Shrimp with Garlic Sauce. They retail at $ 8.99 but mine was on sale for $ 7.99 but with my coupon it was FREE! Like I said, its well worth the money to feed your family something you know is healthy, nutritious and fast in 15 minutes from freezer to table.

To make this review even sweeter, I am offering one of my lucky readers the chance to try it for themselves. Simply go to my product review blog and enter for the chance to win. Click here to go!

Product Review ~ Neutrogena Anti-Aging Skin Care


As I continue to age as a woman in her mid 40's, I am always looking at those tell tale signs on my skin and face that tell me I am getting older. The wrinkles under my eyes, the dark age spots from one too many summers at the beach and now even the effects of gravity on my skin all make me feel way too much older than I feel on the inside.

So when an opportunity presents itself to try a product that will counter affect some of these, I am more than happy to try it. I received an offer from Buzz Agent to try Neutrogena's Clinical Anti-Aging Skin Care line, and had to try it.

The packaging stated that is recommended by the #1 dermatologist to figure out how to go beyond lines and wrinkles and firm and lift for younger-looking skin in just 4 weeks. Well how could I not want to try this?

The kit came with a Facial Lifting Wrinkle Treatment SPF 30 ion2complex gel serum along with a SPF 30 activating cream. The ion2complex gel serum is applied to clean skin. You can use it at night, or during the day under your normal makeup which is what I did.

Before applying your makeup you add the activating moisturizer to activate the ion2complex serum. Both products are small enough to pack in your purse or overnight bag if you are traveling. You only need a dime size amount for your whole face and neck for both products.

The thing I noticed the most was the indentations between my eyes from too much frowning had faded along with some the the crows feet around my eyes. Not only that but the skin around my mouth, those tell tale parenthesis lines as they call them, are back on paper when I write and not on my face any longer.

I've tried the product now for a full 8 weeks and love the look of my face now! Not only that but Steve spends so much time at his job in the weather and sun, I had him try it with me in the mornings after our shower, and his skin looks so soft and wrinkle free!

I had my doubts in using this product at first because you really wonder if the product will work and risking about $ 38.99 for both products, you really want to make sure it works before investing that kind of money. But trust me for $5.00 per week, I would spend the money. Not only that but the product lasted long enough for Steve and I to both try this for our 8 weeks and we still have some left!

The products go on light and grease free, leaving your skin feeling like silk after you apply it. If you would like more information on this product and a way to save up to $20, visit

I received this product compliments of BzzAgent to review for being one of their BzzAgents and trust me, this one really does live up to its claims!
