DISCLOSURE:   I was sent a party pack by House Party and LEGO to promote the new line of LEGO Duplo Read & Build sets.  The party pack included four free sets of LEGO Duplo Read & Build sets for party hosts to share and review.  All opinions are my own.

Recently, I was selected by HouseParty.com to host a party to promote the new LEGO Duplo Read & Build sets.  Each set includes a book that parents can read to their children and a set of LEGO Duplo bricks so you can build the characters in the story!  There are three different sets in the line:

• LEGO DUPLO Read & Build Busy Farm:  Features a book about Farmer Ted and his farm.  Use the included 15 LEGO Duplo bricks to build Farmer Ted's animals!
• LEGO DUPLO Read & Build Let's Go Vroom:  Read and build with Penny and Joe and build an airplane and sports car!
• LEGO DUPLO Read & Build Grow Caterpillar Grow:  Read about Caterpillar and his friends and use the included 17 LEGO Duplo bricks to build Caterpillar and his friends!

DISCLOSURE:  I received a coupon for a free box of Clairol Nice 'N Easy hair color from Clairol and Vocalpoint to try and review.  All opinions are my own.

So before I go into reviewing this hair dye from Clairol, I need to give you some back story on my adventures with hair dye.

I've always been bad at dyeing my own hair.  It wasn't that I was scared to do it, it's just my hair is so dark, nothing really showed up.  Plus it's so thick, it's hard to apply it to every single strand.  I started with using Sun-In when I was in high school.  You sprayed it in your hair and either used a blow dryer or went out in the sun to activate it.  It was supposed to bring out your natural highlights.  I ended up with somewhat orange-y hair.  Later, I moved on to semi-permanent and permanent hair color including Nice 'N Easy, Garnier Nutrisse, Natural Instincts and others.  Nothing really changed my hair dramatically.

DISCLOSURE:  I received a free tumbler and samples of Brew Over Ice K cups from BzzAgent.com to try and review.  All opinions are my own.

I love my Keurig.  I use it everyday.  Sometimes more than once a day.  I'll have a cup of coffee (or two) in the morning with breakfast and then sometimes later in the evening with my dessert.  But what about those times when you don't want something hot, but something nice and cold and refreshing?  Enter Brew Over Ice K Cups!  They're specially blended to brew directly over ice and give you a delicious cup of iced coffee, iced tea and their new iced fruit brews!

DISCLOSURE:  I received a free BIC Soleil Savvy Razor from BzzAgent to try and review.  All opinions are my own.

It's summer and it's HOT!  Today is supposed to be 99 degrees with a heat index of 105!  This is shorts, skirts and dresses weather.  But, to wear those I need smooth legs.  Shaving, though, can get expensive.  You've got the price of your razor, the shave gel, the refills -- all of that can add up, especially if you're shaving everyday!  I've resorted to using disposables, since they're cheaper and I don't have to buy refills.  But they don't last as long and I'm having to go out to buy razors more often.

DISCLOSURE:  I received two free boxes of Mott's Medleys Fruit Flavored Snacks from Mott's through the MyInsite program to try and review.  All opinions are my own.

Introducing a great new snack from Mott's!  In addition to their great line of applesauces and juices, Mott's now brings you Mott's Medleys Fruit Flavored Snacks! 

Thanks to Mott's and General Mills' MyInsite program, I was able to sample this new product.  They sent a kit that included a box of each variety and several coupons to share:
