Zoobies
November 25th, 2009
Oh my. I have a company that I have truly fallen in love with. It is called Zoobie. What do they have? Well, they have the SOFTEST, cutest stuffed animal, blanket, pillow combination that you have ever seen. And when I say soft…I mean they are really soft and cuddly and squishable.
(the stuffed animal, the pillow and the blanket)
Zoobie® Pets embody an innovative and patent pending 3-in-1 concept. Each pet is a plush toy, a soft pillow, and a comfy blanket all in one-the perfect childhood companion.
Zoobies were created by two young brothers who shared a similar desire to invent something for kids that was fun, innovative and functional. Growing up with seven other siblings, they know what children like. Zoobie Pets became something fun for kids and useful for parents when on the road or at home.
The Zoobies come in different sizes. The baby, the original and the jumbo:
And the selection of different animals is phenomenal. There is the Safari Collection, the Zoo Collection, the Wildlife Collection and the Bug Collection. In other words, they have a Zoobie for every child’s taste.
These make the perfect holiday gift. Your child will be thrilled with a new Zoobie to call their own…to take with them everywhere…even if it is just to Grandma’s. Heck, I even love the Zoobies. One will be traveling with me the next time I have to take a plane trip. They are safe, washable, durable, cuddleable and functional. Is cuddleable a word? Yeah, didn’t think so but it should be because that is what Zoobies are…cuddleable.
Zoobies supplies me with a sample product for review and testing purposes. I was in no other way compensated for this post, all opinions are my own and please remember that individual results may vary.

Another Rainy Day and a Planned Trip Away
November 10th, 2009
Yep, it is raining here once again. We have had more rain this year than in about the past 10 years combined. It has been crazy! We are no longer in drought status which is a very good thing. But all this rain makes me tired…and sleepy.
Lots of things are going on here at The Post-It Place. As you know by now we are in the throws of the Holiday Gift Guide. I hope you are enjoying seeing some of the neat, unusual gift ideas I am throwing at you. There are lots more ideas coming to you as well as many giveaways! So exciting. Have you even started your Christmas shopping? I have done a little. Not much, but I plan to rectify that this weekend!
I will be traveling to Atlanta this weekend for a girlfriends weekend retreat! I am so excited. We are going to relax, shop, eat, and play. No worrying about mouintains of laundry and mouths to feed here at home. We will be hitting not only the mall but Olympic Centennial Park (they have the ice skating rink open), Underground Atlanta, Piedmont Park, the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, and more as we stroll around taking in some fresh air and leaving all our worries behind. All thanks to Country Inns and Suites for providing us with a 2-nights stay and to their Retreat and Refresh itineraries for some fabulous ideas. You can see all their iteneraries through their Retreat and Refresh promotion. But, you should also check out other specials they have going on. Country Inns and Suites has made it a point to make travel fun and easy for all…whether you want to take a trip with your family, your friends or all by yourself. During their Free Night Fall Promotion, you can stay 2+ nights now and enjoy a free night on a 2+ night stay later.
So, while I am doing this:
Looking at this:
It is going to be up to you to hold the fort down. We are leaving Friday afternoon and will be home sometime on Sunday. Look out Atlanta, here come the HickTown Gals!
BRUGO Travel Mug
November 3rd, 2009
In this edition of my Holiday Gift Guide I would like to introduce you to BRUGO:
The BRUGO travel mug will revolutionize your to-go coffee experience. BRUGO is an elegant patented technology that allows coffee and tea enthusiasts to enjoy every sip of your hot beverage in the “perfect temperature zone”. Also eliminating spills, spatters and burned lips.
Fresh coffee is brewed at 205 degrees, but ist vibrant flavors are most distinguishable and pleasing at around 150-170 degrees. By using a simple “tip and sip” motion, BRUGO users transfer sip-sized amounts of their hot beverage to the temperature control chamber, where it immediately reaches the Perfect Temperature Zone. Only the liquid in the chamber is cooled and only that liquid exits the sip opening.
The BRUGO lid has 3 options: Lock, Tip and Cool, and Sip and comes in a variety of colors.
As you can see, they have a color for everyone from fun and funky to sleek and conservative. I am personally in love with the Slice (Orange) out of the Jazz Collection.
Once you use a BRUGO mug you will never want to go back to a regular coffee mug. They are fun, functional and my tongue no longer gets burned…that is the absolute best part. Check out BRUGO for the coffee and tea drinkers in your life, they will thank you for it and the BRUGO will be their favorite gift for years to come. AND, they fit great in stockings. Trust me, Santa has been checking to see.
BRUGO provided a travel mug for testing and review purposes. I was in no other way compensated for this post and all opinions are those of my own andhave been in no way influced by any outside source.
Country Gal goes to the City
October 2nd, 2009Yesterday I spent the day in New York City. Now, ya’ll all know that I am about as country as country gets…and that the concrete jungle hold little alure to me. But WOW, I had the best day. The whole reason I went was for you. So that I could tell you all about the hot new toys for the upcoming Holiday season that is quickly approaching us. That I had a great time was just a bonus. I attended the Time To Play Holiday Toy Showcase event that was smack dab in the middle of New York. Getting there, that was the interesting part. I knew that I didn’t want to spend the night in a strange city alone, let alone a HUGE city so I booked my flight to leave and return on the same day. And boy howdy did I ever pack ALOT into one day thanks to Time to Play and Nicole. Nicole and I have been friends on the net for some time and I finally got to meet her in person when I was in Asheville. It was then decided that she would pick me up from the airport and show me the city after the Time To Play Holiday Showcase. There will be so much more from the showcase later, but here are some pictures of New York:
I watch the sun rise . Have no idea where I was, but I was in the air, over somewhere East Coast USA. It was a beautiful site.
I always love being above the clouds and looking down on them. Makes you wish you could plop down and snuggle in for a sleep. They are just so fluffy and soft looking.
I have arrived.Oh…wait….that should have been OMG I have arrived. Now I have to ride with someone…in NYC. Where people drive like maniacs.It really wasn’t that bad, except for the fact that everyone drives really fast and stops really fast. There isn’t an in-between.
This tunnel goes under the Hudson River. That is kinda freaky. Sassy would be bout to pee her pants if she had to drive this.
See all the little trees on top of the building? Even city folks long for a little country. I should show them my trees…they would be so envious. Of course they could be like Nicole who would give her right pinky toe to live in the middle of downtown. Seriously, she really said that. I can’t even imagine living there a week much less full time. But then again, I am the country gal through and through.
Stayed tuned for the next segment…which will be posted at some point…maybe today, maybe tomorrow. Depends if I go snooze some more.
The Squeaky Wheel
September 30th, 2009You know the old saying…The Squeaky wheel gets the grease…I am the squeaky wheel today. I ordered a package over a MONTH ago and it still hasn’t arrived. So frustrating. So, I started calling this morning. Hey, can you tell me where my package is? Ummm, nope…let me check to see if I can find out and call you back. Well, I am not a patient person. I am one of those that likes instant gratification. I want to know where my package is and why it has taken so long. And I ‘ll be if there is not a sole in the world who can answer that simple little question. Believe me, I called about 10 times BEFORE Noon. I just want my package. Where O Where is my package? It was a present. A present that I don’t think will be here in time which means I have to do something different and I had already ordered the PERFECT gift, now it will be less than perfect. Uggg.
This week has been spent recovering from the Type A Mom Conference that I attended over the weekend. My poor house looks like about 20 tornadoes hit it and then I added to all that chaos when I just dumped my bags everywhere…and now I am preparing to leave at 4 AM in the morning to get to Atlanta to fly to New York City. I will be attending the Time To Play Holiday Toy Showcase. Ohhh, but just wait till I get back and get to tell you all about the hot new toys for this holiday season. I can’t wait.
So, as you see it is a busy week here at The Post-It Place. And I am tired…because I had to go into Big Town last night so I could visit the Wally World and pick up some things that I can’t get here in Hick Town. I need one of those big walk in tubs to soak in for about 10 days. I might look like a shriveled up raisin…but who cares, I would feel great!
