			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You by know should know that my family or should I say my kids and I have wars over my Nintendo DS. And me, well I am a huge puzzle fan. From crosswords to word search &#8211; I am addicted to a puzzle game!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.atari.com/" target="_blank">Atari</a> has a great game I got to test out (with my kids too!) -</p>
<p><a href="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/ds_boxL.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1938" title="Puzzler_World_DS_L_Packaging copy" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/ds_boxL.jpg" id="photo468" alt="Puzzler_World_DS_L_Packaging copy" width="160" height="143" /></a><span style="color: #008080;"><strong><a href="http://www.atari.com/games/puzzler_world/ds" target="_blank">Atari Puzzler World (For Nintendo DS)</a></strong></span></p>

</ul>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>WHAT WE THOUGHT:</strong></span></p>
<p>I love it. I&#8217;m not that great at Sudoku, so I&#8217;ve skipped over that one. And some of the games are a bit harder for my kids but the picture quiz, spot the difference, hangman and silhouette they can play and very much enjoy. You use your stylus to write with so it&#8217;s tricky with some of the letters, but you can train it to work with your handwriting. (A bit time consuming but worth it if you are having problems) When you finish one puzzle, it takes you to a bonus puzzle and it&#8217;s quite entertaining when you feel like you are working towards a goal end game wise! Definitely a game worth checking out this Christmas for anyone and everyone!!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Waste not, want not is what my mother has always taught me. Leftovers can be a hot commodity in our house. Along with fruits, vegetables and many, many other things. We save (wash and store away) all plastic containers in this house. We have one cabinet just for lids to our plastic containers. It&#8217;s quite ridiculous and frightening sight to add to it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.rubbermaid.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1796" title="rubbermaid" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid.JPG" id="photo468" alt="rubbermaid" width="186" height="63" /></a><a href="http://www.rubbermaid.com/" target="_blank">Rubbermaid</a> allowed me to review (and giveaway) the products from a family of <a href="http://www.rubbermaid.com/Category/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?SpaceId=Kitchen%28RubbermaidSpaces%29&amp;Prod_ID=RP091258" target="_blank"><em>Easy Find Lids</em></a>!</p>
<p><a href="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1797" title="rubbermaid 20pc set" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid-300x252.jpg" id="photo468" alt="rubbermaid 20pc set" width="300" height="252" /></a></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Let me tell you about this product family line and then I will tell you how I felt about them and how you can win some to put under your Christmas tree! (The information below was sent to me by Rubbermaid)</strong></span>:</p>
<p><img src="file:///C:/Users/BRITTA%7E1/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot.png" id="photo468" alt="" /></p>
<p>1) Lids snap to the bases so that they are always easy to find</p>
<p><a href="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid1.JPG"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1798" title="rubbermaid how to 1" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid1-300x66.jpg" id="photo468" alt="rubbermaid how to 1" width="300" height="66" /></a>*Note – Produce Saver tray even snaps to the lid before it stores !</p>
<p>2) Lids snap to each other, so you can stack multiple lid &amp; containers together</p>
<p><a href="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid2.JPG"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1799" title="rubbermaid how to 2" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid2-300x142.jpg" id="photo468" alt="rubbermaid how to 2" width="300" height="142" /></a>3) One lid fits multiple bases, so it is more efficient to store and nest. Don’t worry, it doesn’t mean you get less lids. It just means the 3 cup lid fits the 3 cup container, the 5 cup container AND the 7 cup container so you have less lids to try to put on before you find the right one.</p>
<p><a href="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid3.JPG"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1800" title="rubbermaid how to 3" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid3-300x80.jpg" id="photo468" alt="rubbermaid how to 3" width="300" height="80" /></a>4) The different size bases &amp; lids, once they are snapped, fit together to make a nice compact stack that saves space in the cabinet</p>
<p><a href="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid4.JPG"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1801" title="rubbermaid how to 4" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/rubbermaid4-300x98.jpg" id="photo468" alt="rubbermaid how to 4" width="300" height="98" /></a>5) There is a family! You can have different types for different usage occasions – for instance:</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>WHAT I THOUGHT:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">First of all the organization is great. I need about 5 more of these 20 piece sets and I can do away with one cabinet being devoted to lids and two cabinets taking up space from saving empty butter, sour cream, peanut butter and various other plastic bins. I can put them in the garage and let Brent do with them as he wishes. I love the snap together feature of them all keeping them all neat, tidy and in one place. The Produce Saver not only saves my produce but my life. I&#8217;m so sick of throwing out veggies, lettuce etc after a day because they go brown, slimy and nasty! These are amazing products and if you have anyone in the family dying for organization in the kitchen check these out for sure!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>WIN IT:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Your Own 20 piece set!<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Because I want to be able to have one lucky winner able to wrap these up and put them under your tree in time for Christmas we are going to make this a quick giveaway! This giveaway will end Saturday, December 12th @ Midnight PST. I will pull one lucky winner first thing Sunday morning!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>HOW:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">1. Main Entry (Counts as 1) <a href="http://www.rubbermaid.com/" target="_blank"><em>Rubbermaid</em></a> and come back here and tell me another product you would like to try by them!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">(This must be done before the others!)</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>EXTRA:</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>All these are worth 5</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are some games while geared to children (or young adults) become much more funner for adults.</p>
<p><a href="http://zobmondo.com/"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1383" title="zobmondo" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/zobmondo-300x40.gif" id="photo468" alt="zobmondo" width="300" height="40" /></a>Let me introduce you to this little gem.</p>
<p><a href="http://zobmondo.com/9_0.html#classic"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1499" title="wouldyourathergame" src="http://thegreerfive.com/wp-content/uploads/custom/wouldyourathergame-150x150.jpg" id="photo468" alt="wouldyourathergame" width="150" height="150" /></a><span style="color: #800000;"><strong> PRODUCT DESCRIPTION &amp; INFORMATION:</strong></span></p>
<p>Zobmondo!! Would You Rather takes the idea of parlor game questions to a new level of debate and lunacy. WOULD YOU RATHER have five bottles stuck on the fingers of one hand for a year-OR- a bucket stuck on your foot for a year?&#8221;Neither&#8221; is not an option here! No matter how awful the alternatives are, it&#8217;s up to the group to reach a consensus. Read the&#8221;would you rather&#8221; question, then let the conversation and laughter rip. Discuss and debate the mind-boggling options and see just how long it takes you all to agree on the absurd! To win, you must move around the board by correctly predicting the group consensus to each of your questions and complete three of the even more absurd&#8221;would you rather&#8221; challenges. Would you rather&#8230;Age only from the neck up-OR-age only from the neck down? In this version, you’ll find questions that are ethical, bizarre and mind-bending, but each is a field-tested conversation starter that is guaranteed to provoke ridiculous fun, break the ice at any party, and– if played correctly– open a unique window into the wild imaginations of friends and family! Number of Players: 4 or more players. Ages 12 to Adult. Playing Time: 45 or more hilarious minutes.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>PRODUCT FEATURES:</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>800 &#8220;Would You Rather&#8221; questions</li>
<li>Includes game board, player pieces, dice, sand timer, card, score pads and pencils</li>
<li>Award-winning social party game for families or teens</li>
<li>Recommended for ages 12 to adult, 4 or more players</li>
<li><strong>Manufacturer&#8217;s Suggested Age:</strong> 12 Years and Up</li>
<li><strong>Length of Play:</strong> 1-2 Hours</li>
<li><strong>Number of Players:</strong> 4 or More Players</li>
<li><strong>Dimensions:</strong> Length: 3.38 &#8220;; Height: 10.25 &#8220;; Width: 10.25 &#8220;</li>
<li><strong>Product Weight:</strong> 3.0 Lb.</li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>WHAT WE THOUGHT:</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #000000;">We, us adults, thought it was the most hysterical game to ever play! I honestly, truly, have nothing bad to say about this game. It&#8217;s  even funner to play as a drinking game amongst adults! It&#8217;s a fun, pretty quick paced games that 12 year olds and above will enjoy! </span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>BUY IT:</strong></span></span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every single holiday we are away from at least one side of our families. Whether it be Brent&#8217;s or mine. Or we are away from grandparents.</p>

<p>Hallmark DVD Greetings are an interactive new approach to the holiday newsletter. Each Hallmark DVD Greeting hosts a template that can be edited and customized with personal photos, burned to the included DVD and sent with the coordinating greeting card (also included).</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>WHAT I THOUGHT:</strong></span></p>
<p>First you need to make sure you have everything necessary to create this! Luckily I do! You will also be prompted to download a program, Smile Box, but I had no problems when downloading or after downloading. After that it&#8217;s a simple drag, drop, add pictures type of thing! The template is all made for etc, you just have to add the picture and personalize the message! It&#8217;s so much fun! I&#8217;ve made DVD&#8217;s etc before for family members, but this is personalized towards Christmas with music, style etc! I love it! The perfect gift for anyone this holiday season!</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>BUY IT:</strong></span></p>

<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>WHAT I THOUGHT:</strong></span></p>

Plus the name of these pads keep me smiling too while I am working and writing things down.</p>
