Kick off Fourth of July weekend with the Great American Wine Company #review


Settle in for some fireworks this holiday with a delicious glass of the Great American Wine Company which recently launched a line of three varietals with a distinctly American look.  Each variant makes the perfect accompaniment for celebrating America’s independence with close friends, and the red, white and blue bottles provide the perfect patriotic touch! The Great American Wine Company is a proud supporter of the USO who will receive a $100,000 donation to support its efforts to provide thousands of programs for US troops and their families worldwide. The three varieties offered include:
  • Cabernet Sauvignon- This Cabernet has a bold, rugged character and dark fruit flavors.
  • Red Blend- Zinfandel-based, this blend is balanced and fruit-forward, with luscious cherry and raspberry flavors.
  • Chardonnay-The Chardonnay shows a stone fruit and citrus profile, with soft vanilla tones
Juicy and satisfying, our 2012 Red Blend offers bold flavors with friendly, laidback demeanor. The blend is dominated Zinfandel, the classic American grape, and expertise of Rosenblum Cellars history of winemaking. Red fruits lead the nose with dark cherries, black raspberries and vanilla pie crust. The palate is rich and velvety with balanced tannins and a lasting fruit imprint on the finish. A perfect companion to barbecue, pair this medium-bodied blend with grilled steaks or ribs.

I am not a huge red wine fan, but this 2012 Red Blend is something different!  It reminds me of a Zinfandel white wine, but red!  It had a very distinct cherry flavor mixed with a hint of vanilla.  Two of my favorite flavors mixed together in a wine! A fun way to serve this wine is as a sangria.  Chill the wine, add some of your favorite fruit, a little sugar, ginger ale and a funny fruity twist on wine!

Celebrate America’s Independence with good food, friends and some delicious red, white and blue libations! But always remember to drink responsibly!  With a launch donation of $100,000 committed to the USO, this all-American brand is dedicated to preserving and celebrating what it means to be a citizen of this country.

VO5’s must-have summer essentials #sp

There’s no doubt summer is here! Warmer weather signals the start of vacation, wedding and BBQ season. No matter the occasion, from an escape to the beach or a city outing, Alberto VO5 wants to help you look your best from head-to-toe. Whether you’re rocking mermaid waves or a low ponytail, VO5’s products, formulated with its proprietary five vitamin formula, ensure healthy and beautiful hair at an affordable price. 

  
Below are some of VO5’s must-have summer essentials:
  • A hair care staple, VO5’s Hot Oil Treatment, moisturizes and conditions hair from roots to ends, helping to restore shine, strength and silky softness.
  • Equipped with a UV blocker, VO5 Salon Series Color Shield + Radiance Shampoo and Conditioner prevents color treated hair from fading in the strong summer sun.
  •  VO5 Salon Series Simply Stunning Leave-In Conditioner is a daily secret weapon, helping protect hair from heat and strengthen against split ends and breakage.
  • Don’t forget about your skin! Alberto VO5’s NEW! Essentials Body Wash moisturizes your skin with the legendary VO5 5 Essential Vitamins formula. 
VO5 was a household name growing up.  My grandmother lived with us and she loved VO5, I remember the Hot Oil Treatment heating up in her coffee mug.  I have used the VO5 Body wash and love it, currently in the shower right now, but I had not used any of the other summer essentials.

The VO5 Salon Series Color Shield + Radiance Shampoo is  great smelling and is gentle. The conditioner is nice and thick, but doesn't make your hair, it rinses out and leaves your hair smelling great and once dry,  nice and soft.  My daughter has claimed the leave-in conditioner, it is perfect for her long hair.  It  honestly helps all her tangles, in the morning it is so much easier to brush her hair.

So what is some of your must have summer essentials?  If you are looking for some great hair care products this summer, then pack your bags with VO5!

Walking With Dinosaurs the Arena Spectacular at the @TheQArena July 9th–13th #Ohio #DinosLiveCLE @DinosLive





WALKING WITH DINOSAURS
THE ARENA SPECTACULAR

July 9th–13th, 2014

Tickets on sale NOW!!!

Dinosaurs once again roam the earth when the spectacular production, WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR, based on the award-winning BBC Television Series, returns to North America this summer.

WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR will be performed at Quicken Loans Arena from a limited 8-performance engagement from Wednesday, July 9th through Sunday, July 13th. Tickets are on sale now at theqarena.com, by calling 888-894-9424, at the Quicken Loans Arena box office and at all northern Ohio Discount Drug Marts.

The show that critics have called ‘awesome,’ ‘spectacular’ and ‘breathtaking’ will commence a new tour in Cleveland from July 9-13, 2014. This updated production will showcase changes to the dinosaurs based on the latest scientific research including the likely feathering of some species. Worldwide, more than eight million people have seen this show in 243 cities and over 2,000 performances.

WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR is produced by Global Creatures headed by CEO Carmen Pavlovic. Pavlovic said, “I am thrilled that WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR is coming back to the US in July - its first visit to North America since its inaugural 2007 sell-out tour. A new generation is ready to experience these life–size beasts in this awe-inspiring spectacle, which has still not been matched in terms of scale and quality. Many of our creatures have “evolved” since the last tour, now featuring distinctive display feathers, head crests and tail fans, reflecting recent discoveries about the physical nature of these massive creatures. This show remains a must-see for audiences of all ages.”

The show depicts the dinosaurs’ evolution with almost cinematic realism. WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR has scenes of the interactions between dinosaurs, how carnivorous dinosaurs evolved to walk on two legs, and how the herbivores fended off their more agile predators.

Ten species are represented from the entire 200 million year reign of the dinosaurs. The show includes the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the terror of the ancient terrain, as well as the Plateosaurus and Liliensternus from the Triassic period, the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus from the Jurassic period and Torosaurus and Utahraptor from the awesome Cretaceous period. The largest of them, the Brachiosaurus is 36 feet tall, and 56 feet from nose to tail. It took a team of 50 – including engineers, fabricators, skin makers, artists and painters, and animatronic experts – a year to build the production.

The history of the world is played out with the splitting of the earth’s continents, and the transition from the arid desert of the Triassic period is given over to the lush green prairies and forces of the later Jurassic. Oceans form, volcanoes erupt, a forest catches fire -- all leading to the impact of the massive comet, which struck the earth, and forced the extinction of the dinosaurs.

The show originated in Australia, where after years of planning, WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR came to life at Sydney’s Acer Arena in January 2007.

The 20 dinosaurs were originally “hatched” by Sonny Tilders, the head of creature design at Creature Technology Company in a Melbourne Docklands workshop big enough to park a 747.

The show proved itself such a sensation, that the North American tour was fast-tracked, where it quickly became one of the leading arena attractions. The only building large enough to house rehearsals for the dinosaurs– some as large as 36 ft tall by 56 ft long - was the Greater Tacoma Convention and Trade Center!

Soon after this successful season, WALKING WITH DINOSAURS THE ARENA SPECTACULAR went onto conquer Europe and Asia.

Kennywood - Make it a weekend getaway + $7 off general admission! @Kenny_Kangaroo #Kennywood #PA

 photo kenny.jpg
America's Favorite Traditional Amusement Park since 1898, Kennywood is now open and perfect time to visit now that most schools are out ! Kennywood continues to delight each and every guest with 31 major rides, including three wooden coasters, two steel coasters including Phantom's Revenge and Skyrocket, water rides, spinning rides, hi-speed rides for thrill seekers, Kid-sized rides for tiny daredevils, and relaxing rides for those who simply want to enjoy the splendor of a truly inviting venue.

Combining the best of the old with the best of the new, guests will find the original, 110-year- old carousel pavilion, as well as state-of-the-art attractions like Phantom'sRevenge, Skyrocket, and Ghostwood Estate. The Black Widow ride features counterclockwise rotation and pendulum motions that create a variety of different sensations, depending on a rider's specific position.

A couple weeks ago we took a trip to Kennywood park in PA. It was close to a 2 hour drive for us, so not that bad! We arrived at opening and got to experience it all! It was a bit overcast that day and a Sunday, so it was not busy at all.  We had minimal wait times for rides, maxing out at 15 minutes!   The first ride of the day for my husband and daughter was the Phantom Revenge Coaster and loved it! While my son went on a couple of the classic wood coasters.

Majority of the rides require you to be at least 46 inches and there are a few that you must be taller than that to ride.  My son is just over 46 inches, so this time around he was able to ride just about all the rides he wanted!  Since he was tall enough to ride without an adult, he even just rode rides with his sister.  This gave us old folks (LOL) a time to rest.   The kids loved riding the  log ride alone and getting soaked!

Food wasn't bad. We grabbed lunch at the Parkside Cafe!  We spit a wrap, salad and mac n' cheese.  It was way too much for the three of us, as the kids were just wanting to get back out and ride.   My son begged and begged for a corn dog, so of course we obliged and he was in heaven later in the day.  Prices are comparable to eating out! There was food places and restrooms all over the place, so they were easy to find!  I would order minimal at first and then if it gets devoured get more food.  Kids have a tendency not to eat much in the heat, let alone when excitement awaits!

It was a truly nice park for families. Younger children  can enjoy the kiddie area and get the courage to ride the bigger rides. Nestled close to the kiddie area is also a stage, so check the times for the shows!  it was a pirate adventure show with swashbuckling pirates fighting each other!

If you have small kids, the Kiddyland part of the park will make you very happy. If you are a roller coaster enthusiast, there are tons of options for you. There is something for everyone! It was a fun filled day for us Ohio peeps and nice to have an option not to far away to visit

Sterling Vineyards Wine #Review



Sterling Vineyards has two tiers of wine with the Vintners Collection providing a great value bottle (SRP $14-17/bottle) without sacrificing the quality or taste. These wines are made for enjoying every day.

Sterling Vineyards wines express true varietal character - that set of aromas and flavors a grape variety develops when grown in the terrior that suits it best.  Carefully selected wine making methods highlight each wine's unique personality and guarantee the high quality that distinguishes their reputation.  Sterling Vintner's Collection offers hand-crafted, approachable selections source from diverse terrior and priced to be enjoyed every day!

Sterling Vintners Collection Aromatic White
 
The Aromatic White is an everyday wine at $14/bottle SRP (often found for less in stores) that’s made from an aromatic blend of white grapes. The explosion of intense fruit and floral aromas in this wine stand up well to the equally intense flavors to appetizers containing ingredients such as blue cheese and sweet apricot. This wine offers a refreshing sip as a counterpoint to the creaminess of the cheese and the soft chew of dried apricots. This is an amazing white wine and great to serve with appetizers while  dinner is cooking.  I also thought it would be great to serve with dessert.   Retails about $14 a bottle.


Sterling Napa Sauvignon Blanc

The pleasant appeal of their 2012 Sauvignon Blanc begins on the nose with fragrant aromas of white peach and bright floral notes. Stone fruit and honeydew melon continue on the palate, accented by ripe ruby grapefruit. Associate Winemaker John Hazak used lees stirring, which contributed to the smooth viscosity and silky mouth feel. A vibrant streak of citrus continues into a long and satisfying finish. The lively acids in this wine pair well with a variety of foods. Try seared scallops, halibut or any variety of salads.

Sterling Vineyards Napa Appellation wines come from 14 diverse vineyards in this world famous region, from Caneros District in the south to the northern reaches of Caslistoga.

The Sauvignon Blanc is a step up, in that it’s part of the more prestigious Napa Appellation collection, and it’s more traditional as a single-variety wine. It in a nice clean and crisp wine that showcases a citrus flavor.   This is the perfect wine to pair with a light salad after a long day of work.  It’s SRP is $14.40/bottle.

Kiss everlasting French Manicure

I am posting this for a friend. She is the one who received the items below:
As a member of Influenster, I received a box of complimentary Kiss everlasting French Manicure nails in the Spring Fling Vox Box to try out.

I work in a warehouse and for safety reasons, we are not allowed to have long nails because they can cause injuries. And to be really honest, I don't care much for the nail salon because it's expensive---and who has time for it anyway? I also grew up in the 80s and have flashbacks to the "press on" nails that would always fall off and never looked good.

I was very excited to receive a box of the "real short" length because they would fall within our dress code policies at work. They were very easy to put on, though I did have some issues with the glue not working well. There was either too much so I glued my natural nail to the underneath part or not enough so one actually popped off just a day later. The patented tabs made them very easy to place on my nails without gluing my fingers together.

I received many compliments on my nails and how nice they looked. They lasted at least a week (more than a week is not recommended) and are very high quality. 

My only complaint is the box size---you receive 28 nails in the box which could be enough for 2 sets of nail, except that you only receive 2 of each nail---which is enough for one set. The rich white tips did not chip and have lasted looking nice the entire week. 

EVERLASTING FRENCH

GUARANTEED CHIP-FREE WEAR

The ultimate French manicure that never chips—guaranteed. Rich white smile line looks like you just left the salon; file to any shape with no tip wear. Offered in Real Short, an everyday length with our patented tabs for an easier application that eliminates messy glue on fingers--and Medium length, a great fit for longer nail beds. Available in Flat and Regular nail arches with Flex-Fit Technology to ensure ultra-comfort and a perfect fit!

What you'll get:
  • 28 French Nails (14 Sizes)
  • Pink Gel Glue (2g)
  • Mini File
  • Manicure Stick
