The Toledo Holiday Expo is a fun filled expo that helps people get all of their holiday shopping done in one convenient location while showcasing different products and businesses at the same time.

I’d love to participate in this event with promoting A Wrestling Addicted Mommy as well as my new venture DealMoms Toledo, however with nothing to actually sell, a vendor’s table isn’t really the best bet for me.

What I’m hoping to do is find a sponsor/business who would love for me to promote their business and sell their products at the expo.  You would provide payment for the vendors table where I would set up, display and sell your products as well as allow me to host my own business cards and pamphlets for my websites as well.

If you’d be interested in participating, sponsoring a table and having me promote your business and sales of your product I’d love to speak to you more about it.

Even if you’re not interested in being a vendor, Toledo Holiday Expo is looking for donations for their raffle where the proceeds will go to Toys For Tots. You can find more information about the expo by visiting toledoholidayexpo.webs.com.

If you’d like to donate or sponsor a vendor table please contact me.

I’ve been sharing photos online for what seems to be forever!  Ever since I had my first camera phone and digital camera.  Printed photos and photo albums are of the past with us, I don’t even think we have any photo albums besides our wedding one.  EVERY single picture I’ve ever taken is online.  I have baby pictures of my oldest that I have online and if I lost them I’d freak out, so I do keep a backup of all my photos at home on an external hard drive, but it haunts me if something were to ever happen to it.

The program I currently use to store my photos isn’t that great, I can’t upload easily from my phone, and even uploading from my computer takes forever, so I barely use it.  Facebook seems to be the place where I store most of my photos online now.  But, I’ve currently found a place to help keep my photos safe and backed up, Fotobounce software!

Fotobounce is a free software download (with ads, they do offer a paid service without ads for $49) which you can get for both your computer and your smartphone.

Downloading the software onto my computer was super quick, and installation was easy.  Adding photos to Fotobounce was easy as well, it will scan your computer and run in the background if you’d like to find all of your images.  Once you have your photos on Fotobounce you can share them with a select few but adding people to your own little private network which are called bouncers, your then doing private sharing rather than public.  You must invite these people to your network, and only those invited by you are able to view your photos.

Having the Android App on my phone is great as well because I can easily take my photos from my Fotobounce and access them directly on my phone no matter where I am, I can’t do that with my computer and Facebook can be a pain to do that with on a phone!  My ‘bouncers’ can view them as well on their computer or phones too.  Fotobounce is a great program for us as most of my family and friends are scattered around the country and in Canada, some of which don’t use Facebook as frequently as I do, plus this way, I don’t have to ‘block’ people from albums, I don’t want them to see my photos I don’t invite them, simple as that!

Fotobounce is a lot more than just digital photo management software, it’s more of a peer to peer network.  You want to add your friends and family so they have access to your photos as well.  How great for Grandma and Grandpa to see up to date photos of their Grandkids in an easy way either on their computer or their phone without having to mess with other things around it, it’s strictly photo sharing!

Another cool feature that Fotobounce has on their software is face recognition technology.  This is where the Fotobounce software scans photos you’ve added and tagged and finds other photos with the same faces and tags them for you instead of doing each photo individually.

If you do have photos on Fotobounce that you do want to share with Facebook, Flickr or Twitter you do have the ability to do that as well with a simple transfer and connection to your accounts.

Once I was registered I set up my Fotobounce Android App and was quickly able to view photos in my albums by people, dates and more.  I’m also able to share exisiting photos or new photos from my phone and have them emailed directly to my Fotobounce account.

I am in love with this new software Fotobounce has created, it’s time saving and an easy way to view and share photos with family and friend.  I also love it because it’s secure and private, no public sharing of photos I don’t want.  Invites are easy through the Fotobounce software and emailed directly to the emails you provide.

You can check out and download Fotobounce for free by visiting fotobounce.com or connect with them on Facebook and Twitter as well.

It’s summer time, and we like to indulge in some sweet frozen treats, however on my diet, and because of me being pre-diabetic I can’t always enjoy the same sweet treats as my family, so I’m always up for finding an alternative.

DaVinci Gourmet makes these amazing syrups (both sugar free and non sugar free) that you can use in recipes, coffee, drinks and desserts. I’m a huge coffee drinker and having these sugar free syrups to enhance my coffee is the greatest thing ever!

I simply brew my coffee as normal, then add some syrup directly to my coffee and it gives it some instant flavor. If I want a caramel cappuccino I can make one, if I want a hazelnut latte I can have one of those too, all with the ease of DaVinci Gourmet!

Browse around their websites, and find many of their syrups in a variety of flavors and many are sugar free as well, I was amazed at the selection for the sugar free syrups! You can also check out a huge list of recipes to help you enjoy your syrups even more. Yummy desserts, iced coffee’s or cold or hot drinks, the syrups have endless limits.

One of my favorite recipes is for a Sugar-Free Caramel Guilt Free-ze Milkshake:
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons DaVinci Gourmet Caramel Sugar Free Syrup
- 3 scoops non-fat chocolate ice cream or frozen yogurt
- 1 cup cold non-fat (skim) milk

Directions
Combine the milk, syrup and two scoops chocolate ice cream or frozen yogurt in a blender. Blend until thick and creamy and pour into a glass. Top with remaining ice cream or frozen yogurt.

Yield
one 16-ounce serving

SO YUMMY!!!

Davinci Gourmet syrups can even be great for treats for your kids, check out the Batman Blast drink that any kid (or even adult) would enjoy:

Ingredients
- 1 oz DaVinci Gourmet Raspberry Classic Syrup
- Yellow Lemonade
- ice

Directions
Fill a 12 oz glass 3/4 full of ice and add ingredients. Mix well.
Yield
one 12-ounce serving

There are so many more uses for the Davinci Gourmet syrups, just check out their website for the variety of flavors and to find your favorite recipe, visit davincigourmet.com.

One lucky reader will have a chance to 4 sugar free flavors of DaVinci Gourmet Syrups, these will include: Raspberry, Hazelnut, Kahlua, Vanilla and Caramel.

Summer heat and humidity don’t always give you the greatest looks when it comes to hair. The frizz, the flyaways, the dryness… I hate summer heat, chlorine and all the other things that can ruin your hair in the summer months.

The developers of HairMax at home hair care product line know a thing or two about providing hair with more luster, shine and manageability than many of the products available on the market. The sulfate free hair care products gently cleanse and condition the hair without stripping essential oils. Natural botanicals add shine and manageability to make your hair look fuller, thicker and healthier. HairMax utilizes phytic acid, a natural anti-oxidant to lower the pH and dissolve the build-up of oxidative stress layers on the scalp.

SHAMPOO – Retail Price: $12.00
Using their vast experience of over 20 years of research and clinical investigation, HairMax has developed a new approach to hair care. The process starts with a sulfate free base to gently cleanse the hair without stripping essential oils. Other shampoos contain sodium laurel sulfate (SLS), a harsh detergent that strips the natural oils from the hair follicle. SLS causes the oil glands to over-react creating too much oil. This excess oil converts to a waxy substance that builds up on the hair shaft and may restrict proper hair growth. HairMax Enhancing Shampoo is sulfate free and does not contain harsh chemicals like SLS. It gently cleanses the hair while combining with the hair’s own natural oils to lubricate and moisturize the hair shaft.

HairMax uses phytic acid in its shampoo system to lower the pH and promote a regenerative action on the base of the scalp, reducing oxidative stress layers. The shampoo system can be used by itself or in conjunction with the HairMax LaserComb. The HairMax shampoo system has a lower pH than most shampoo systems on the market. The company’s research indicates that the oils (sebum) produced in the hair follicle can turn into a waxy substance in higher alkaline environments. This lower pH, phytic acid based shampoo system helps to prevent the sebum build up and promotes the lubrication of the hair follicle to encourage healthier looking hair.

REVITALIZING CONDITIONER – Retail Price: $12.00
Most conditioners are thick and heavy, weighing down the hair making it look flat and difficult to style. HairMax Revitalizing Conditioner utilizes innovative botanicals that deeply moisturize the hair shaft then rinse free, leaving the hair soft and manageable without heavy build up. The HairMax Conditioner restores and protects the hair shaft while a combination of botanicals and vitamins rejuvenate your hair’s look and feel, leaving your hair smooth and shiny.

INVIGORATING SCALP TREATMENT – Retail Price: $7.50
Healthy hair comes from a healthy scalp. Perspiration, oils, environmental pollution and styling products can build up on the scalp clogging the hair follicle, leaving particle deposits that can clog hair follicles and leave hair looking flat and greasy. Invigorating Scalp Treatment is designed to dissolve these particles, washing them away, making your hair look healthy, clean and full of body. The Invigorating Scalp Treatment contains phytic acid to help reduce the pH of the scalp. When used in conjunction with the Hairmax LaserComb, this facilitates laser absorption from the HairMax into the scalp.

HAIR FORTIFIER – Retail Price: $7.50
Many of us take vitamins to maintain the health of our body. Well our scalp isn’t any different. HairMax Hair and Scalp Fortifier are vitamins for your hair. This product is infused with a special combination of botanical nutrients, DHT blockers and innovative ingredients, like caffeine, oleanolic acid and biotinoyl tripeptide, that are believed to have positive results for healthier looking hair. HairMax Hair and Scalp Fortifying mist is delivered directly to the root of the hair, maximizing the benefits these innovative ingredients may provide.
