#ad I will be meeting Shemar Moore!


Disclosure: I will be attending a press junket to learn more about The Bounce Back Film and meet Shemar Moore.

If you’ve been following me on facebook or twitter you know I’ve been talking about Shemar Moore and his latest project “The Bounce Back.”

We’re about a week into this project now, and Shemar has raised 250,000 dollars.  That makes him halfway to his goal on IndieGoGo for making his film “The Bounce Back” happen.

Shemar truly gives back to his fans.  As you see, if you donate any of the donations amounts he’s truly giving back with awesome prizes such as T-shirts, Flip Flops, Viewing Parties, and even a behind the scenes look at Criminal Minds.  Let me tell you, he has a heart of gold.

But, I feel he’s giving back because this Sunday, I’ll get to meet him and learn more about The Bounce Back and his project.  He’s taking the time to meet with us (the bloggers helping out with getting the word out about his movie).  And let me tell you, that’s just awesome!

But not only that, on Sunday, he’s going to get on his computer and join in on the twitter party that is happening at 4pm PST.  Stop in and give a shout out to Shemar as we talk about his latest project “The Bounce Back.”

Disclosure: I am apart of the Blogger Intiative for The Bounce Back.  I will be meeting Shemar on Sunday to discuss his latest project.  This is an unpaid post.

Yogurtland Introduces New #FlavorswithCharacter


Disclosure: I was provided a giftcard on behalf of this post.  One lucky reader will also have the chance to win a 10 dollar gift card. 

Can you believe it was just the 4th of July.  The month of June sure flew by.  One of my favorite summertime treats is stopping into Yogurtland for a yummy frozen yogurt.

While in Minnesota I even got my mom hooked on frozen yogurt.  Beginning July 8th through September 15th Yogurtland is launching new flavors.  These flavors are inspired by some of our favorite Looney Tunes characters.  Lets think Bugs Bunny, Tweety, Daffy Duck and more.   6 new flavors altogether.

Along with the flavors, Yogurtland will be introducing merchandise that goes along with these characters from notepads, pencils, key chains and melamine bowls while supplies last.
