M&M's Spokescandies Discover Canada!

“This is my first big trip across Canada. I’m excited, but anxious—what if I forgot to pack something important? And I hear that Canadians REALLY love their M&M’s, so maybe preparing for the cold should be the least of my worries! *Gulp*”

Orange, M&M’s Spokescandy

Imagine my surprise when I found out that the M&M's Spokescandies were coming to Canada! They're going to be on my own home turf! It's time to roll out the red carpet for our tasty friends, don't you think?

The famous M&M's Spokescandies will be visiting all the cool places in Canada, from famous landmarks to hidden gems off the beaten path. Of course, what's a visit to this fine country without checking out a hockey game, right? Maybe they'll even enjoy some time on the world's longest skating rink, too!

Our M&M's Spokescandies need YOUR help, though!

They want to discover the very BEST of Canada, and you can help by telling them where to go, simply by tweeting your recommendations to @MMSCanada and using the hashtag #CanadasBest.

You can also leave your suggestions on their facebook page!

Of course, I also have a great M&M's package up for grabs for you!

One of you lucky chocolate lovers will win $70 worth of M&M's—in a variety of sizes and delicious flavours!

You'll also receive some rare M&M's swag and the hiliarous book by the Ferguson brothers called How To Be A Canadian. (Even If You Already Are One).

Playtex Giveaway!

Are you still looking for the perfect sippy cup for your child? Then I have a giveaway just for you!

I remember the days when my children started to drink from a sippy cup, and how hard a task it was to find just the right kind of cup for them—one that was spill-proof, looked good, and was easy for my little children to drink from.

Well, Playtex has come out with the new Infant Lil'Gripper cup—it's perfect!


It's the first Playtex trainer cup that combines a squeezable body with a straw and it's spill-proof and leak-proof guaranteed! The straw cup is contoured so your child can hold tight and control the sipping. The cup also has a squeezable body that helps your child learn how to use a straw. These news cups are designed for babies as young as four months old, too.

The Playtex Lil’ Gripper cup is available in purple, green, blue and pink and the Twist 'n Click technology is spill-proof, leak-proof and break-proof. The cups are also dishwasher safe, and BPA and Phthalate free.

You Playtex package contains:

Playtex First Sipster Trainer Cup
Playtex Drop-Ins Original Nurser
Playtex Ortho-Pro pacifier
Playtex Ortho-Pro pacifier with sterilizing cover
Playtex Binky Silicone pacifier

Just leave me a comment below and you'll be entered to win this fabulous package! Good Luck!

I'll pick a winner randomly on February 28th, 2011.
