IMG_0058We love to BBQ and recently I tried a couple new mustard sauces from Fischer & Wieser.  They make a number of unique sauces and mustard  that help make your meals more interesting and taste better.

I tried 3 different mustard sauces.  The first one was the Hickory & Cracked Black Pepper Mustard Sauce.  This sauce was very flavorful and I loved the combination.  I ate it on some pork chops Rex grilled but I think it would be great on a turkey sandwich.  It also would be good with a cheese and meat tray. IMG_0031

The next one we tried was the Salted Caramel Mustard Sauce – doesn’t that sound good?  I really liked the salty-sweet taste of it. I used it as a dip for some chicken tenders I made and it tasted really good.  It would be great as a finishing sauce for baked ham or chicken.

The last one is pictured here Raspberry & Wildflower Honey Mustard Sauce. This was my favorite I loved the sweetness of the honey and the tartness of the raspberries.  Here I used it on pork.  It had such a great flavor.   I think it would be good on any grilled food.

Fischer & Wieser  has been making great tasting unique sauces and mustard since 1969 using products they grow on their own farm.  You can purchase your own sauces and mustard to liven up your meals HERE.  You can also purchase Fischer & Wieser sauce local nationwide at Safeway stores and many others. Stay connected on Facebook.

Rex and I are still trying to lose weight and actually eat better so when I saw the Super Swizz Spiral Slicer I knew it would be perfect for us.  What the Super Swizz Spiral Slicer does is cuts raw vegetables into pasta shaped spirals.  It is great for cutting firm vegetables like carrots, zucchinis and cucumbers.

The slicer is so easy to use – it is like a pencil sharpener. You put the vegetable in one end and twist. Out comes a long curly strand of your vegetable.  It would be great for salads, stir fry and even use in place of pasta.

I made a great salad with carrot, cucumber and jicama by just adding a bit of a ginger dressing I had on hand.  It was light and refreshing.

 

Here is what I like best about the Super Swizz Spiral Slicer:

  • Easy and fast to use
  • Fit easily in a drawer for storage
  • Easy to clean and came with a small brush
  • Looks durable
  • Great for low-calorie meals

You can purchase your own Super Swizz Spiral Slicer HERE.  You will love how easy it is to use and the low calorie dishes you can make.

coco

It is the time of year when I start spending more time outdoors and being more active.  Rex and I love to go for hikes and bike rides together. I want to make sure I stay hydrated so I was excited to try Cocogo.  Cocogo is a premium sports drink made with real fruit and coconut water in a pack that you just add to water.  It is really good tasting.  I am really don’t like sports drinks but Cocogo taste good.

It comes in 3 great flavors Grape, Lemon-Lime and my favorite Raspberry Passion Fruit.  They are all natural so are not overly sweet. Cocogo offers the best balance of electrolytes, contains an ideal blend of sugars, and has seven essential vitamins.

Rex likes Cocogo to when he goes to the gym he said it gives him steady energy and his muscles don’t cramp up.  In the past he would come home and complain that his calf cramped up but since he has been drinking Cocogo he has had no problem.

I like that you can customize the amount of Cocogo to match what you are doing – just need to quench your thirst add 1 or 2 packs to your 14 ounces of water, need to renew and feel refreshed – 3 packs, but if you are in for a heavy duty work out or game  you will want 4 packs added to your 14 ounces of water.

You can buy Cocogo HERE online.  You can also find it in some stores nationwide.  You can connect with Cocogo on Facebook.

Pop'dI am always looking for new products.  Recently I tried Pop’d KernsTM (formerly Glad Corn) and was pleasantly surprised at how good it is.  Pop’d KernsTM  is an all natural corn snacks that is  certain to satisfy your taste buds and tame your appetite with their irresistible combination of tantalizing taste and perfect crunch.

IMG_0074There are four great flavors Original, Ranch, Cheddar and Barbeque. I really like all of them, and love snacking on them in the afternoon.  Once you start eating Pop’d KernsTM  it is hard to stop they are a remind me of a mix of Corn Nuts and Popcorn.  Here are some of the good reasons to eat  Pop’d KernsTM :

  • All natural ingredients
  • Non-Gmo ingredients
  • Gluten-free
  • Whole grain snack
  • Good source of fiber
  • Trans fat free

I love the story of how Pop’d KernsTM  were discovered. The tale began with a rural Minnesota farmer and his wife, regular folks living in a small, close-knit community where the man grew corn and soybeans on his family farm. This hardworking farmer also happened to be a dreamer and a problem solver. He had a desire to learn more about alternative energy sources, and this eventually led him to do some experimenting. One quiet night on the farm, he was in the kitchen working on a new ethanol fuel recipe while his wife was catching up on some reading in the living room. He stepped out of the kitchen for a moment while a batch heated up on the stove. Suddenly — KABOOM! They both came running immediately and found exploded corn all over the kitchen! Being the inquisitive type, the farmer was more interested in tasting the pop’d corn than cleaning up the mess. While it didn’t look like much, he discovered that it was about the best tasting stuff he’d ever eaten!

If you would like to purchase Pop’d KernsTM  you can do so HERE.  You can also find it at a variety of  stores nationwide.  You can stay connected on Facebook.

I received two bags of each flavor and would love to share with one of my readers 1 bag of each flavor.  You must be 18+ US (48), DC.  Leave a comment on what you like to snack on in the afternoon.  Extra entry for following on Pop’d KernsTM  on Facebook. Extra entry for each way you follow Kaisy Daisy’s Corner. Giveaway ends Jun 11, 2014. Enter daily for more chances to win.

It is that time of the year when we start doing a lot of grilling.  Rex loves to use the grill and I love that he does the cooking.  I am always on the look out for new sauces or marinades.  This past weekend we had some steak on the grill and I tried these yummy sauces from SAAS.  There are two different ones.

The first one in the picture is the “Onion & Garlic” which is my favorite. Has lots of flavor and tasted great.  Only the  freshest onions combined with garlic, honey, and  orange  habaneros  are used. The second one pictured is the “Original Flavor” An  amazing mix of fresh red jalapeños, orange  habaneros, and  spices gives this sauce  a rich, fresh red pepper flavor with a complex and  refined  bouquet that always compliments any food it  may be served  with.   Joey liked that one the best – matter of fact he uses it a lot!

What is so unique about the sauce is that in 2008 a group of students were brainstorming to with ideas on how to make money for good causes – and the SAAS “Orginal Flavor” was born! Now there are two delicious quality product both  generate money for charitable donations.

If you would like to purchase your own great tasting SAAS sauces HERE.  You can stay connected on Facebook.

Immersed tourImmersed NewImmersed by Jennifer Griffith
Lisette Pannebaker speaks five languages and has a brilliant business plan—personal language immersion. Clients can hire her to shadow them and speak all day in any language they need to learn for business or travel—whatever.
But there’s a major hitch: she’s far too pretty. Clients with less than honorable intentions sign up just have Lisette at their side. Solution? A make-under. Way under.It works like a charm. None of her male clients show her the least bit of interest.
Until… Erik.
Erik Gunnarsson is charming, kind, and smart—everything she’s ever looked for. Even though he seems to have a secret and she swore she’d never date a client, Lisette is tempted to shed her disguise—even if it means jeopardizing her career.

Jennifer Griffith studied French, German, Japanese, and a wee bit of Spanish in her school days. Her grandmother was Norwegian, and Jennifer grew up with lots of Scandinavian traditions floating around, including fabulous cardamom laced cookies called Krumkaker, made on a fancy waffle iron. However, she’d never dream of trying to teach someone any of those languages. And she might botch the cookies. Instead, she writes novels in English, drives her five kids a million places, and laughs with her husband, who came up with the plot for Immersed because he’s just a cool muse like that.

My Review

I really liked the whole set of books in the Ripple Effect.  I just finished reading Immersed  by Jennifer Griffith and I enjoyed the story.  Lisette was graduating from college ~ she had seen a ring box on her boyfriends coffee table and was sure she was so excited.  Only to find out he was using her for good grades.  Lisette still had a plan she was opening up a business called Immersed here people could pay to spend time with her and learn another language.  She was well versed in many as her family moved a lot when she was a child and she picked it up.  The only problem was that she was very good looking and all of the male clients that hired her ~ hit on her.  She needed to pay back the money her mother loaned her for the business as she borrowed it.  Her aunt talked her into a make over that would make her less attractive.  Would this work?  What did her new client Erik think?  Did he agree to her terms? You will need to read Immersed to find out.
