Mission Menus Challenge

July 29th, 2010 by Laney

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Mission Foods. All opinions are 100% mine.

Summer’s the perfect time for little or no cook meals.  Sandwiches get boring pretty fast, so it’s important to mix things up (lest you slip into the tempting trap of prepackaged junk food).  A great way to introduce something a little different into lunch or dinner is to incorporate unexpected ingredients, like Mission Flour Tortillas.  They’re kid friendly, convenient, and have a fabulous fresh baked taste – which makes them a great vehicle for all kinds of in season veggies and other fresh ingredients.  Mission Flour Tortillas are cholesterol free and contain zero grams of grans fat, so they’re a great choice for the entire family.  And, since they’re available in three sizes (small to large, 6″ to 10″), there’s a size that will work for just about anything you’re making.

Mission Foods is a great company to support because they give back to the community in a meaningful way.  They’re a big supporter of Share Our Strength, which is a national organization committed to ending childhood hunger in America.  To find out how Mission Foods supports this great charity, please visit their website.

Another great feature of Mission foods and Mission Flour Tortillas is their online menu inspiration.  Mission Menus has a great selection of meal ideas that are quick, easy, and budget friendly.  It’s hard to believe, but all of their great meal suggestions can be made for $10 or less!  I’m really excited to try my hand at the Chicken, Spinach, and Artichoke Quesadillas – which only take 8 minutes to make!

On June 28th,Chef Sara Moulton and Mission Foods introduced the Mission Menus Challenge
.  Chef Moulton is encouraging consumers (that’s you!) to submit budget friendly recipes for a chance to compete in a Mission Foods cook-off in LA.  The contest includes a $10,000 dream kitchen makeover for one lucky winner, as well as a host of weekly prizes.  The Grand Prize Winner will receive round-trip airfare and hotel accomodations for 2 to the Mission Menus Challenge cook off, which will take place September 10th, 2010, at the Hard Rock Cafe in Los Angeles.

Recipe submission for the Mission Menus Challenge is open until August 9, 2010.  Recipes MUST include Mission Flour Tortillas, be original, and feed a family of 5 for $10 or less.  Now you see why they’re calling it a “challenge” and not just a “contest!”  Good luck!

All Current Giveaways Extended!

Due to personal issues (and the myriad of distractions summer offers), I haven’t been able to promote the current giveaways as fully as I normally do!  As I don’t want anyone to miss out on these fabulous goodies, I’m extending all giveaways.

The three fabulous contests listed below will now ALL end on Sunday, July 25th (at midnight EST).  Make sure you get all your extra entries, tweeted entries – and of course, Mandatory Entries! – in by then!

  • Win the lingerie of your choice from Lingerie.com! Their selection includes bras, panties, nightgowns, sets, and even accessories like stockings and shoes!  Lingerie.com also features a great plus size selection to ensure that there’s something available for everyone.
  • Win a Sex & the City inspired bracelet from 1928 Jewelry! This vintage inspired company creates beautiful, sleek pieces that have both a retro feel and a modern wearability.  We’ve teamed up with them to offer a fun giveaway – tell us what Sex & the City character you identify with in exchange for the opportunity to win a fabulous cuff bracelet!
  • Win a bold, beaded statement from Soho Hearts! This company is relatively new to the US, which is why some of you may be scratching your heads.  The company was started in Amsterdam and their gorgeous, bold style has caught the eye of shoppers around the world.  Now’s your chance to score one of their hot necklaces (a favorite of mine!) to rock with summer dresses or save for big Fall styles.

Good luck entering!  If you’re choosing not to, why?  What types of items or brands would you like to see given away in the future?  Your input is always valued, and can be shared in the comments!

Los Angeles, CA – On July 11th, actress Dakota Fanning wore a Fluxus “Funk Top” in heather grey while arriving at LAX International Airport.

This top will be available August 2010. For similar styles in the meantime, please visit Fluxus online.

It’s hard for me to get over Dakota Fanning not being a little kid anymore!  She looks stylish and mature in this outfit and frankly, it’s something I’d wear myself!  What do you think of the look?  Leave your thoughts in the comments.



Kristen Stewart Rocking J Brand Jeans

West Hollywood, CA – On July 9th, actress Kristen Stewart wore a pair of J Brand “912” low-rise pencil leg pants in vintage navy while attending a concert at the Troubadour.

The pant retails for $185 and is available for purchase online from J Brand Jeans.

I’m starting to embrace Stewart’s grungy rock star look.  It’s not for me, but she’s definitely got her own look and I can get behind that.  What do you think of her style?  Do you love it, or wish she’d glam it up?  Share your thoughts in the comments!



Sunday Sample: Boudreaux’s Butt Paste

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Boudreaux’s Butt Paste. All opinions are 100% mine.

This is another article for any moms who’ve wondered over from The Fashionable Housewife – or just anyone who needs, er, butt paste.  I’m happy to honestly say that I’ve never used Boudreaux’s Butt Paste – not because there’s anything wrong with it, but, you know…  Once you say things on the Internet, you’re not getting ‘em back.  In any case, I’m familiar with the brand name after having seen them written about positively in the past.

Boudreaux’s Butt Paste® was specifically formulated by a pharmacist with direction from a respected pediatrician to provide effective diaper rash care.  It’s pediatrician recommended, and all you moms out there will be glad to know that it both goes on and cleans off easily.  Your little ones are probably messy enough as is, without having to throw any paste in there too!  The tubes have flip top caps for convenience, and the product has a pleasant scent.  It’s a skin protectant that features 16% zinc oxide and Peruvian balsam (fancy, no?).  Bordeaux’s Butt Paste both treats diaper rash and soothes irritated skin, which will surely help quell some of the fuss involved with taking care of your baby.  Also, Bordreaux’s Butt Paste comes in a range of sizes that will suit your needs, ranging from 1 ounce to 16 ounces!

Since I admit I haven’t personally used Bordreaux’s Butt Paste, you don’t just have to take my word for it.  The product has been featured on the Oprah Show, Tonight Show, Today Show, People Magazine, ESPN, and While You Were Out TLC.  And if that’s still not enough?  Visit their website through the link above for your very own free sample!

Johannesburg, South Africa– On July 10th, singer Shakira wore a Nation LTD “Barbados Bralette” in black/natural while attending a press conference before the 2010 World Cup Final game.

This item is available for purchase online from Revolve Clothing.  I love the sporty look, with her bralette peeking out from under her cute yellow cover up.  She looks healthy and gorgeous, as always.  What do you think of the look?  Share your thoughts in the comments!
