Images courtesy of Aveeno® Update! This giveaway is closed congrats to Gianna. Disclosure: Aveeno® is sponsoring this giveaway and provided me with a similar prize pack. As always my post is my unbiased opinions. One of the downsides of getting older is seeing your once beautiful and low maintenance skin turn into a total drama queen so it matches the rest of your personality. ; ) For me, one of my biggest skin challenges is brown spots and dullness. I love love love the sun but sadly years of bad bad bad exposure are starting to catch up with me. The skin is the largest organ of the body and unfortunately lately my skin has started to rebel from poor treatment. Good thing Aveeno® Active Naturals has come out with their Aveeno® Positively Radiant Collection. Harnessing Active Naturals Total Soy Complex new line uses 5 factors of radiance TM to transform your skin. Check out my video.

(Video) Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System Product Review

December 19, 2012 by Divina Rodriguez 2 Comments

Have I mentioned before how I love coffee? No I mean I LOVE coffee. But Eddy hates coffee but loves tea. So I usually brew my lonely one little cup of coffee to drink alone and Eddy brews his cup of tea. So when Esio Hot & Cold Beverage system, a new system available in 2,400 Walmart stores across the U.S. reached out to us for a video review. We were all over it! Check out the video. The Esio Hot & Cold Beverage System is so so cool. In one system you can make a variety of hot and cold beverages from just one cup or up to 14 servings per pouch. Love how the Esio's drop'ndrink™ technology allows me to make a hot cup of coffee and immediately switch over to a cold ice tea with a flip of a switch. As you can see in the video getting the water heat up takes almost no time for a hot beverage. Other features I love: Variety of Esio's MultiServe E-Paks™, from some of our favorite brands like Maxwell House, Country Time, Apple & Eve, Crystal … [Read more...]

September 4, 2012 by Divina Rodriguez Leave a Comment

Image courtesy of Logitech A few weeks back I was invited to a Press preview event with Logitech where I got a chance to Skype with the one and only Dee Wallace or as we all know her as the Elliot’s Mom from the E. T. movie. She mentioned how she was a new grandmother and that Logitech was helping her “phone home” and stay up to date with her family. Eddy and I also are avid Skype users because of his monthly business trips and our international family in Paraguay and Puerto Rico. So I was thrilled when Logitech sent us their latest product a Logitech TV Cam HD ($199.99.) Check out our video. Eddy and I already use Logitech webcams and headphones to stay connected but this new Logitech TV Cam HD takes the interaction to another level. As you can see in the screen you are no longer limited to your personal computer or laptop screen. If you have a large screen TV you can talk with your loved ones while you sit on the couch! Talk about … [Read more...]

Little Kids No-Spill Bubble Machine and No-Spill Whistle

There is a timeless wonder and joy that comes with bubbles. I remember running around giggling as I blew or popped bubbles in my backyard with my sisters. I may now be the Mami but I am still giggling and running around the backyard with my little men as we have bubbles fun. So when Little Kids sent me a No-Spill Bubble Machine and No-Spill Whistle it MADE MY DAY! I love how their marketing initiative is “Only the Fun Comes Out.” They are the first to create the No-Spill bubble category and they have so many fun products. Check out the video of us trying the products on a sunny day. The No-Spill Bubble Machine has become a new FAVORITE toy at our house. It truly is no spill and it makes an amazing amount of bubbles so I really can just run around instead of blow a bubble at a time. I mean have you seen the video! The power of a great bubble machine and a few AAA batteries! I hope my boys look back at those countless sunny days and smile. The … [Read more...]

The days have started to warm, Memorial Day is behind us and sun dress, iced coffee and sandal season is here! With that it means you must get your toes all pretty for the sunny days ahead.

May 7, 2012 by Divina Rodriguez 1 Comment

Spring has hit and the constant challenge of how to entertain my little men is a little easier. We go out and just explore the beautiful world that is growing outside. The Dancing Hotdogs.com family predominately is organic and a “green” eaters but it was especially cool growing our tasty veggies with the help of Growums. Growums gets kids into the garden and on the path to healthy eating. Each Growums garden kit adds a little character to your garden but I love these super affordable kits ($9.99 to $39.99) for they showed Rock and X where food come from and it cultivated their patience. Day 1 to Day 25+ they realize other than a little water and sun the sprouts will take time to grow. Check out our video. To be honest I was a little concerned about growing our Growums Pizza Garden since I don’t have a very green thumb I may even be called plant killer by some but the Pizza Garden set is sprouting. The kit includes everything that shows in the video: seeds, … [Read more...]
