Bakers Delight Giveaway

26 Oct

I was recently asked to be involved in a product testing/launch for Bakers Delight. I personally have not had any bread from their bakeries but I have had yummy treats, so I was excited to be included!

Earlier in the week 2 loaves of their new Hi-Lo (high fibre, low GI) bread was delivered to me. My challenge was to come up with ways to use the bread to keep lunch exciting. Miss Delightful is a little bit young to be involved although she did enjoy eating the bread! So I focused on Mr Wonderful and myself. Here is what we had:

Day 1: I made a scrummy ham, pickle and mayo sandwich
Day 2: I was feeling lazy so had a honey sandwich, mmmm honey!
Day 3: I sent Mr Wonderful off to work today with a ham, pepperoni and cheese sandwich, which I think he intended to turn into a toasted sandwich.
Day 4: Today I braved it and gave Miss D a different sandwich, she loves peanut butter and banana so I mixed the 2 together, sounds disgusting to me, but she ate the whole thing!
Day 5: Today’s lunch was chicken, hummus and tomato sandwiches, delicious.
Day 6: I was feeling a bit rushed for time today so it was just a plain old peanut butter sandwich, but the bread made it taste so much better :)
Day 7: Today the hubby was at home so I treated him to an ultimate sandwich made up of: ham, pepperoni, cheese, tomato, mayo, pickle, and chutney. There wasn’t a crumb left on his plate!

I don’t normally eat white bread, but I did find this stuff very tasty to eat! And it helped me to eat proper sandwiches, most days I just have peanut butter or honey, but this bread and the challenge forced me to make ‘fun’ sandwiches!

The new Hi-Lo bread is available at any Bakers Delight store, you can go to their website to find a store near you. While you are there you can drool over their yummy treats as well!

And I have been given 5 vouchers worth $5 each to giveaway, thanks Bakers Delight! So if you would like to grab one of these, check out their website to see if you have a Bakers Delight store near you, and leave me a comment telling me about your yummiest sandwich idea. The 5 winners will be randomly drawn on November the 9th, so you have 2 weeks to enter (open to New Zealanders only, sorry)!

Borne Naked Liner

19 Oct

I was one of the lucky ladies in the land of Kiwi Mummy Blogs who was chosen to test and review one of the Borne Naked Handbag Liners.

I have to admit while I love handbags, and tend to buy a new one rather regularly, I don’t actually use a lot of them at once. So I am not constantly changing my handbag. This doesn’t mean that it is not a never ending pit of darkness though! I have a bag that is big enough to fit all my stuff, plus any extra baby stuff I need to take… like nappies, wipes, crackers, hats, etc!

I was very excited when my liner arrived and couldn’t wait to test it out. But I wasn’t sure what to put in it! My first attempt involved me putting all of Miss D’s bits and pieces in to the liner, which left me easy access to my stuff. This worked for a while, until I left my handbag on the floor and Miss D found my wallet. So then I thought, why not swap it around! So now I have all my stuff inside the liner and Miss D’s things in my bag (only the big things though). It has made it easier to find my phone or keys.. but I’m still not 100% sold on it. I think maybe I would be better off with a smaller size liner, the medium is a little bit big for my liking.

Here is my handbag before the Naked Liner came along:

And my new and improved handbag:

Overall it is a fantastic product, well made and great for taming the pit of darkness!

To get one yourself you can head to Borne Naked, or show me some love as I have one to give away!!! Woohooo :)
All you have to do is leave a comment telling me about one item that always lives in your handbag! Entries are only open to those living in New Zealand and I will draw the random winner on November 2nd (so you have 2 weeks!).

And while you are at it how about checking out the other lovely ladies doing Naked Liner reviews/giveaways!
