Yes I am weird, I have the mind of an engineer. So, for those of you that have children that might need Calculus help you might try out Tutor Vista.

There you can find.

Free precalculus help and Free calculus help

August 17, 2009 By Momstart 335 Comments

Did you see the new Yoplait commercial on TV? I saw it this weekend and I only noticed it because my sister said,

“You can Freeze Yogurt?”

Oh, yeah, didn’t you know, you can freeze yogurt. You don’t even have to worry about the live cultures because as they warm up they become active again.

So for a last summer treat and an after school snack. Yoplait is offering up a gift package to two of my readers.

You will win two coupons for yogurt and a popsicle maker set and the spoons and a refrigerated bag for those trips to the park or wherever. You want to keep the pops cool.

I’ve been freezing yogurt for a long time. The texture will be a little different but it’s a great texture for a frozen treat.

To Enter:

Visit Yoplait and tell me what flavor you are going to try.

Wanchai Ferry My Blog Spark #giveaway package

August 17, 2009 By Momstart 458 Comments

Wanchai Ferry makes some great quick and easy meals for moms to throw together and feed the family.

I love Chinese Food and these are mouth watering. I haven’t tried every flavor in fact I’ve only tried one. Orange Chicken is so very yummy. It’s really easy to make and you only have to get one pan dirty. I’m getting hungry just thinking about it.

People from every part of Hong Kong society pass through—business people and laborers, shoppers and even commuters trying to get to the pier so they can take the Wanchai Ferry across Victoria Harbor to Kowloon.

In 1972, Madame Chong left her home in Central East China for a new life in the bustling city of Hong Kong. To support her two young daughters, Madame Chong began making dumplings from an old family recipe and selling them from a cart in Wanchai.

Although her dumplings attracted many fans, Madame Chong was not satisfied. She listened to her customers carefully and revised her recipes until they were perfect in every detail. Word soon spread across the city and her dumplings became the talk of the town. The Hong Kong press even named Madame Chong the city’s "Dumpling Queen."

In 1985, Madame Chong established the Wanchai Ferry^® Peking Dumpling Company to make her creations more widely available.

Since that time, Wanchai Ferry has become a leading brand not only in Hong Kong but the world over. Now people across Asia, Europe and even the United States can enjoy restaurant quality Chinese food in the comfort of their own homes.

wanchai-prizes

General Mills, MyBlogSpark, would like for one of my readers to get to try this out. Not only, do you get a coupon for a free package of your choice of Wanchai Ferry you will get the items pictured.

You will find two sets of chopsticks, two placemats and two bowls. I love this set it’s very modern and I can’t wait to get back home and use it all together.

To Enter:

Visit Wanchai Ferry and tell me what flavor you are going to try.

This Week’s Shopping Deals on Buxr and a way to make money

August 17, 2009 By Momstart Leave a Comment

I love to share all kinds of deals, freebies, and giveaways with my loyal readers. I also get a lot of pitches about companies, but this week I had something interesting I wanted to share with you all.

Buxr is a great site to find shopping deals. It is similar to slick deals I think, but I’m not entirely sure because I’ve never been to slick deals. They have a discussion board and I noticed that one of the discussions says that the new Epson Stylus NX100 All-In-One is on sale for 28.00. You can register for the discussion boards where they talk about the where the what and the why. Registration was super easy for me because all I had to do was use my google account. Doesn’t the whole world have a google account?

There are plenty of ways to find information on Buxr.com. You can find deals like a free movie screening. Free Avatar Movie Screening by registering at the nearest location. How fun! I’m not into taking my kids to the theater yet but I’m sure many of you are. Why not go for free?

They have all of the deals organized by tags if you want to search to see if there are any deals on specific item you are looking to buy.

Looks like after you sign up you can make a little money with their widgets.

I’m going to give it a try and see if any money can be made. I do know I can save some money.

Seriously, I need a break….

August 15, 2009 By Momstart 1 Comment

Have you seen that I’ve been pumping out like 10 posts a day. I’m exhausted and I’ve had a permanent baby sitter for a month so I should be revived and refreshed. So I’m taking tonight off. All these posts were during the supposed PR black that went on too. Not that I participated in the black out anyways..

I take on way too much. I’m just incapable of saying no in everything I do. I was talking with my sister and we would both like to go on a vacation. We would like to go away and just be able to sleep for three days and then maybe do a few things but not over do it. It would be nice to just go somewhere and relax.

Myrtle Beach Resorts sounds like a great place to go. I love going to the beach. The sound of the waves is so relaxing and I love to swim. I’m just a tad bit afraid of the ocean because I was stung by a Portuguese Man of War Jelly Fish one summer. I had a terrible reaction and swelled up like a man. I was huge.

I have no idea which Myrtle Beach Resort or Myrtle Beach Hotel to choose. If you get down to it I’ve never been to North Carolina. The first time I was on the east coast I went to Boston. I liked the East Coast more than I thought I would. So now I can say I’ve been Coast to Coast. I’ve been to the California Beaches and I’ve been to the Gulf Coast Beaches. I wonder how white the sand is in North Carolina.

Of course, I highly doubt I can get my husband to go that far away.
