A Special Father’s Day Giveaway from PicturesOnGold.com

This Father’s Day, why not get the Dad in your life something unique and sentimental? Even better, what if you could WIN that special gift for that special guy?

Well, the kind folks at PicturesOnGold.com is offering one of my readers (that’s you), such an opportunity.

Instead of a new tie and socks for Dad, the equivalent of flowers from the gas station on Mother’s Day, give him a Sterling Silver Photo Dog Tag Pendant complete with an 18 inch Sterling Silver Chain.

PicturesOnGold.com

The winner will receive the Photo Dog Tag Pendant shown above, along with a permanently engraved photo that can be in color or black & white, and a personalized message on the reverse side. The item is valued at $134.95, but for you, it can be free!

Don’t worry, I won’t tell you won it so you can say you had to pull all kinds of strings to get it. 😉

I’m a sentimental guy, just ask my wife and she’ll roll her eyes at all the “junk” I keep, and having something like this dog tag with a favorite photo and heartfelt message would be perfect. It’s not massive so I can have it with me everywhere to remind me I am loved. That can be the difference from a bad day staying bad to turning good after a quick look at the picture and message.

To enter for your chance to win, simply follow the required steps below and you’re good to go!

A Healthy Start With #TheNewSweet of Zevia

Zevia has been the only soda in our home for many years. I’ve reviewed their delicious drinks in the past and explained why it being a healthy treat is not the only thing that makes it so special in our home.

Recently, Avery had her first try of #TheNewSweet that is Zevia and now we have a small family of Zevia lovers! She literally reaches for the stuff whenever it’s in sight!

So what is “#TheNewSweet” all about? Here are the details directly from the satisfyingly refreshing soda company itself:

Zevia is s naturally sweetened, zero calorie soda in 15 delicious flavors! They’ve asked me to put a fresh spin on my old routine in honor of Spring! Get in on the fun on twitter.com/zevia & instagram.com/zevialife by tagging them & #TheNewSweet. Head to the gallery to peep the party! Zevia.com/TheNewSweet

Here in Texas, Spring turns into Summer in an instant, which means it gets a little warm. And by “warm” I mean VERY HOT! With Avery running around and keeping active indoors and out, she needs to stay hydrated with plenty of water and energized with nutritious food.

Since she was born, we’ve only given her healthy food I made and she will eat steamed veggies without a fuss……usually (she’s still a toddler!). Carrots are viewed as a treat to her and I’m proud at how well she does when it comes to eating healthy.

Thanks to my wife, she still gets the unbeatable breast milk to drink as well as water. But now, after playing outside and needing a nice treat, I’ve started sharing a Zevia with her. Since Avery just started having liquids other than breast milk and water, we never had a routine to give a “fresh spin” to, instead this is the routine.

So far she’s tried their Grape and Strawberry sodas as well as their brand new Tonic Water. It’s a great way to make a healthy adult beverage or something fun for the kids. Like, for instance, mixing with another flavor like Strawberry because we all know how fun it is to mix things!

At least it is in this house. Avery has been loving this combo lately. Just a 50/50 mix and some ice and you’re good to go.

No one wants to spend too much time inside when it’s nice outside, so I prefer to keep it simple. Of course, on a rainy day, Zevia has plenty of recipes to try on their site.

And it’s not just drinks, you can bake with it for a healthy treat to eat too! I even have a recipe for Cherry Cola Protein Bread I suggest you try. Just make sure you top off everyone’s drinks before using the last can!

From Spring right into Summer, we’ll be keeping healthy and happy with #TheNewSweet of Zevia. So when Avery is giving me “the look”…

Before Zevia

…I know it’s time for a healthy treat like Zevia to keep things cool and calm. Judging from her cheeky grin, I’d say it’s working!
