Oogies’s Gourmet Popcorn and #Giveaway Ends 4/20/2012

Posted on April 6, 2012 by Jamie

Have you heard of Oogie’s Gourmet Popcorn? Well, if not, let me introduce you!

Oogie’s Gourmet Popcorn is literally the best Kettle Corn I’ve ever had, and they’re even proud to admit it themselves!  This popcorn is “Oogiefied” with the best natural ingredients they could find: evaporated cane juice, sea salt, and their proprietary corn.   Then of course they have their own secret ingredients added to make Oogie’s the best!

Before I tried Oogie’s Gourmet Popcorn I had written off popcorn, and decided I just wasn’t a fan anymore.  But then I tried Oogie’s at #ExpoWest, and I haven’t been able to stop munching sense.

They have unique and incredible flavors which include:

White Cheddar

Smoked Gouda

Sun-Dried Tomato and Parmesan

Hatch Chili Con Queso

Movie Lover’s Butter

Spicy Chipotle and Lime

Cracked Pepper and Asiago

Kettle Corn

And all of the flavors are absolutely wonderful!  My all time favorites are their Original Kettle Corn, Their White Cheddar, and their Sun-Dried Tomato and Parmesan, but was pleasantly surprised by all the flavors.

I even got my Significant Other to try them.  He is an avid Chip Lover, and the other night after a bag he declared this to me:  “I really stayed away from popcorn because it didn’t have the flavors I craved that I found in chips, but now that I have had Oogie’s, I’m going to eat this all the time instead.”  He loved the flavors, and never knew popcorn could taste so good before!

The best part about Oogie’s is this:

Completely All Natural

Trans Fat Free

Cholesterol Free

100% Whole Grain

And Non-GMO

Turbana Plaintain Chips and #Giveaway!

Posted on April 6, 2012 by Jamie

If anyone knows me, they know I am big on sweets, and rarely crave salt, but now and again I do get my salty craving.

I was instantly drawn to Turbana Plaintain Chips at #ExpoWest because I was just downright curious.  I hadn’t had a plaintain yet in my life, but I was dying to know what the chips tasted like.

Turbana Plaintain Chips are made with fresh plantains, and have 30% less fat than potato chips.  Absolutely no trans fat, and zero cholesterol.  They are Gluten Free and No GMO’s, and they make for a GREAT snack!

And I was thrilled!!!  They were so good, and I couldn’t stop munching even after I got home.  I dug into my bag of samples, and specifically picked out the Turbana Plaintain Chips!

These chips are available in 6 flavors:

Chili

Lime

Natural

Chili Lime

Garlic

Sweet

The Chili Lime and Lime varieties have a kick to them, but in a good way, but the one I’m absolutely in love with is their Sweet variety.  The perfect combination of sweet to go with that salty craving.

And now you have your chance to try them yourselves with this Giveaway:

What is it: Turbana Plaintain Chips: Lime, Garlic, Sweet, and a larger bag of their Natural variety.

Retail Value: 7 dollars

Becoming the Photographer.

Posted on April 4, 2012 by jamiegall1930

As I’m learning more and more about photography I’m beginning to put myself out there more, and learn as I go.

A few weekends ago my SO and I were invited out to photograph a dance group.  The dance group is called Mandala Danceworks and they are absolutely amazing to watch in performance.  If you ever have the opportunity to see them, I highly recommend it.  I was so excited about the opportunity that was given to us.

And these were some of the shots captured that night:

In a nutshell I was pretty happy with the shots I came back with, and was happy to share them with the dancers that partook that night.  And now I’m happy to share them with you =)
