$100 Clothing Gift Certificate Giveaway for 525 America

[ 256 ] August 25, 2010

525 America Clothing and Homewear  for Women over 45 and our younger friends!

Still Blonde ater all these YEARS!  525 AmericaThe Chief Blonde in a Knit Trench Coat/Sweater by 525 America $84 on sale!

What the Company Says:

In 1985, founder Bobby Bock had an idea for a sweater; a quality knitted top for women that was thick, rich, oversized, and produced domestically. It didn’t exist. He set to work producing it, and in the 20 years since has transformed 525 America into a thriving lifestyle brand whose hallmark is distinctive knit tops for women, renowned for comfort, color, diversity, and youthful attitude. “We are always catching the trend before it hits the curve and not after,” says Bock, whose three company divisions feature styles that utilize the most current shapes and modern fabrics, and continue to pursue the “hip and comfortable” principles that have made http://www.525america.com appeal to women for two decades.

525 Homewear - A reflection of the comfort, diversity, and quality of the knitwear lines, the 525 Homewear collection, a line of 50″ x 60″ knit throws sold nationally to specialty stores, brings 525 America to your bedroom, living room, or any area that deserves the luxury of a contemporary knit item. With six to eight new styles this fall and many styles retained as staples to the line, 525 Homewear stylistically mirrors the ever-changing trends of the clothing collections. New this fall are several dramatic angora knot throws in solid and tie-dye.

Still BLonde after all these YEARSChief Blonde Remarks: This clothing is fun and inventive.  Definitely something for every age of women.  Cute little Camisoles and adorable coats.

525 America PEA coat

The Coat that I am wearing in the picture at the top  is actually a knit.  So it looks like a coat, but fits like a gorgeous sweater.  Go here to see more views of this adorable jacket sweater in our Outfits–Women over 45 post. We love this line.  The sizing appears true, the quality is unbeatable.  You’ll see me this fall in that fantastic trench sweater and you’ll be jealous! 525 America

Free Online Artichokes Vegetable Grilling Cookbook

[ 0 ] August 25, 2010

Artichokes Grilling Recipe Ideas–Just Download, Grill and EAT!

Grilled Artichokes

Ocean Mist Farms, the largest grower of fresh artichokes in the country, is greening up backyards grills this summer by offering a digital version of its new vegetable grilling cookbook free, online.The vegetable grilling cookbook is the most recent in a series the company decided to distribute digitally rather than through more traditional forms of publishing.

“We put a lot of effort into creating cooking videos and digital cookbooks to enhance the experience of visitors to our Web site and give them more than what they were expecting with a traditional recipe search online,” said Kori Tuggle, company marketing manager. “From the traffic trends we discover online, we modify our site content to cater to what people are looking for.”

The online publication has virtual pages that can be turned by clicking the mouse or the clicking the navigation bar.  The cookbook can also be searched inside for words, figures and full sentences, printed, or saved as a PDF file and shared with friends electronically.

“We know people use the Internet for recipes and we want to be their source of information for cooking vegetables – and fresh artichokes in particular,” Tuggle said. “We’re using all forms of digital communication, from our Web site to social media, to help make cooking artichokes easier and more fun.”

Ocean Mist receives a monthly average of 30,000 unique visitors a month to its Web site, with more than 50 percent of the visitors coming to the site specifically for artichoke recipes based on the volume of Web site pages viewed.   In 2009, the company had more than 70,000 recipe views.

For recipes, cooking videos and more information about Ocean Mist Farms visit www.oceanmist.com.

$110 Dryel Giveaway -5 winners + Free Dryel

[ 143 ] August 24, 2010

As we have seen on the fashion pages, catwalks, sidewalks and storefronts – dark denim is the must-have for your wardrobe, especially for Women over 45!   This is an easy look for us to wear!

real woman in dark denim

But once you get those jeans or jeggins home – how do you keep them looking brand new?  The answer is Dryel!

You’ve seen it on the shelves and heard the name before – but do you really know what Dryel is and what it does?

DryelStarterKit

Dryel is a convenient at-home Dry Cleaning system that safely steams and cleans soils, stains and odors while removing wrinkles and saving considerable time and money. In fact, Dryel cleans 10 garments for the cost of one dry cleaned garment, and it works great on ALL YOUR CLOTHES! Every fashionable piece in your wardrobe can be cared for with Dryel, including the latest styles of dark jeans and denim.

Dryel is up to the challenge of even the darkest of denim, and, unlike detergent, will keep all your jeans looking like brand new even after cleaning them 50 times!  Dryel retails for $6.99.  You can find more information at www.dryel.com.

Still Blonde small Chief Blonde Remarks: I have used Dryel for years.  I just can’t stand to pay those dry cleaning bills.  It’s really simple to use.  Using Dryel is as easy as Zip It, Steam It, Hang It.  Just place up to four garments in the Dryel Bag and add the pre-moistened Dryel Cloth and Zip It. Place it in your dryer for 30 minutes to Steam It. Then remove your garments from the Dryel Bag and Hang it. It’s that easy and inexpensive to take care of your wardrobe at home, while avoiding those costly dry cleaners!

Here’s SOMETHING FREE FOR EVERYONE

–This August, consumers will have the chance to try Dryel for free via a rebate at Wal-mart stores. Jump on it now as this expires August 31.    The link to the rebate is here - http://dryel.com/rebate/

The best ideas are chosen and voted on each month and they can win up to $250 Wal-Mart gift card and then up to $3000 in grand prizes this spring. And, this is a MONTHLY contest. So, if they don’t win this month, they can come back and try next month. Is running through March 2011.  Here’s the link: http://dryel.com/contest/
