Win a Watch For Your Guy

Why am I under my desk? Because, when the storm was nearing, I unplugged everything before lighting could zap my computer. After the storm, I needed my computer in order to see what the time was. Now, that is ridiculous! I seriously need a watch.

My husband is not addicted to the computer at all and so he still relies on his watch. He has a cheap watch that he wears while working and keeps his special watches to wear to church. Watches are to guys like shoes are to us girls.

My husband loves to talk about unique timepieces. Being an avid collector of Swiss Army Knives, he was introduced to the quality watches of Swiss Army many years ago. He is an admirer of the Victorinox Swiss Army timepieces and has been leaving hints as to why one would make a fabulous father’s day gift. You can visit Swissarmy.com to view their collection of timepieces and choose one for that special guy in your life.

While visiting the Swiss Army Website, visit the Facebook IWAW sweepstakes page and check out the “I Wear a Watch sweepstakes”. Over 30 days they’re giving 30 lucky winners a Victorinox Swiss Army timepiece!

After the Storm

Photobucket
This picture was taken from my front porch last evening. I thought we might have to stay in the basement for a while because the weather reports were giving information about tornado sightings in our area. Thankfully, none of them touched down near us. We had enough damage to homes in our area last weekend. It is eerie to drive by those homes and see all the debris. Tornadoes are very scary.

WeReward Is Easy!

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

Chops I have written reviews for many years for a wonderful company, IZEA. This company is known for their innovative attitude. They are the force behind Social Spark, the company that pays writers to review products and/or blog about various things in turn for payment. They also pay us for Tweeting out information. Their newest venture is a new mobile application called WeReward. All you have to do is Download the App to your iPhone. Then, by visiting businesses or carrying out simple tasks, you are offered the ability to get cash!

The following video shows how the process works:

The process is simple so check it out at WeReward.com and get started! If you are like my son, you use your iPhone all the time anyway so why not connect to a social network and make some extra cash? This venture is going to grow and hopefully, include more merchants as the word gets out. Get started on the ground floor and reap the benefits of WeReward. Watch your PayPal account grow as you do the things you routinely do in everyday life. Visit a business on the WeRewards list, claim your reward and earn some cash! What a concept!!!

Silky Terriers

My sister has a friend who has a Silky Terrier. We really didn’t know what kind of dog that was so of course we had to find out! I love being able to find out things on the Internet.

I found information on the American Kennel Club website:
The Silky Terrier is often confused with a Yorkie, but in reality, the Silky is larger and more closely related to the Australian Terrier. A friendly, joyful temperament and the lovely blue and tan coat make him an ideal companion. This portable pooch can adapt well to any living situation, but make sure you have the time to devote to them – they do not like to be ignored, preferring to play fetch or go on walks with their family. Silkys are keen and energetic, so it’s best to keep them occupied. The breed must also be bathed and brushed on a regular basis.

Yummy Flatbread Pizza

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

I cannot believe that I am hungry but I always get hungry for a good snack when I watch television in the evening. The reason I should not be hungry is because we ate a late lunch at Amish Acres this afternoon. Amish Acres serves what they call the Trasher’s Dinner. It is a huge meal complete with ham, fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy and so on. I should not have to eat for a week!

Reality strikes and I am ready for a Freschetta FlatBread Pizza. Have you ever tried one? OMG! They are the most delicious pizza. They are made with Naturally Rising dough that is kneaded and rolled so it rises like fresh-baked bread in your oven. Then they add all natural cheeses, not that plastic tasting stuff that so many processed pizzas are made from. Next comes my favorite part, real, ripe tomatoes. Choose from Zesty Italian, Roasted Garlic and Spinach, Pepperoni or 5-Cheese and have yourself a wonderful thin crusted pizza.

Be sure to check out Freschetta’s website to see all the wonderful products they have. While you are there, get a coupon for $1 off your purchase of Freschetta Pizza.
