Juicy Juice and Cars 2

Car 2 was released!! Cars 2 was released!!!

I Loved the movie Cars and have been really looking forward to seeing Cars 2. We are piling up in front of the TV, have our Juicy Juice and Popcorn ready as well as the Raisinets. Who is your favorite Cars character? I have to say, mine is Tow Mater. On a side-note, my kids used to go to the skating rink in the next town over every Friday night. Well, there was this one kid that also went and he just looks like Mater. Talked like him too. It was so cool, everyone eventually just started calling him Mater and to this day I can’t even remember his real name, just that everyone called him Mater.

Also, you should check out the Spy School on Juicy Juice’s website, http://www.juicyjuice.com/Spy-School/, where your kids can play spy games and even get their own spy name (mine is Delia Delight, I just love name generators!). Ok, so you might end up playing too.

In celebration of Cars 2, Juicy Juice would like to give away a Cars 2 Prize Pack – including the Cars 2 Blu-Ray, a $25 rewards card to buy snacks and special edition Cars 2 JUICY JUICE eight-box juice boxes.

A Walk In My Shoes (GIVEAWAY)

Nov 292010

I think we have all been guilty of judging people based by only what our perception is. And our perception can sometimes be very far off. What if we just spent a few moments in their shoes? I think our judgements would quickly change.

While I was in Toronto I got the priveledge of previewing the movie called “A Walk In My Shoes” which will be airing on December 3rd at 8/7C on NBC. Oh My, what a fabulous movie. This is the third movie that Proctor & Gamble and Walmart have teemed up on in order to provide more family friendly entertainment…something that was long overdue and that I am very thankful for.

“A Walk in My Shoes” makes viewers stop and think, “What would I learn if I stepped into someone else’s life?” Stressed-out high school teacher Trish Fahey (Nancy Travis, “Three Men and a Baby,” “Becker”) can’t understand her students’ lack of effort in the classroom and why their parents don’t seem to care. This is especially true of Justin Kremer (Cameron Deane Stewart), a popular, skateboard-loving, basketball star who is underperforming in her class. Trish has him suspended from the basketball team and quickly chalks up the situation as a case of bad parenting.

This perspective dramatically changes when Trish meets Molly (Yara Martinez), a mysterious stranger intent on helping her see things differently. After a car accident, Trish wakes to find herself living the life of Cindy Kremer (Jana Lee Hamblin), the woman she has rashly judged and criticized. Molly helps Trish discover that there is more to the story and learns a powerful lesson that affects everyone she interacts with, including her husband, daughter and the Marine next door. No one is left unchanged.

You should be seeing some of the commercials for “A Walk In My Shoes” on NBC. Make sure to put it on your calendar, this is a movie that you will want to watch with your whole family!

Walk In My Shoes DVD/CD

One lucky reader is going to win ”A Walk In My Shoes” Prize Pack that includes the DVD/CD of “A Walk In My Shoes”, a back pack, along with some other promotional items.

ENTER TO WIN: Simply leave a comment stating who has made a big difference in your life. All entries must be received by December 3rd, 2010 AT 11:59 pm. All entries must have a valid US amiling address. Winner will be selected randomly and will have 3 days to respond to the verification e-mail before another winner will be chosen.
