Update: This giveaway is now closed.
Every Monday I start off the week with a recipe! Except for last week. When I didn’t. When I do post a recipe, my recipes are quick and healthy. Including this one! Except this really isn’t a true recipe! This is a recipe for relaxation! Notice my use of lots of exclamation points! That’s so you’ll believe this is a recipe! (did it work?)
How is it I really haven’t cooked in days???? (or weeks even?)
Well, one of the reasons I haven’t cooked is I spent last weekend at Blogher, a convention of bloggers held in San Diego. Have you been? If not, here’s the way this weekend went:
- At Blogher you get to meet bloggers you’ve known only from their blogs, or from twitter, or from facebook and actually lunch with them. Think people are online because they have no real friends? Not so! These are fabulous women who have interesting lives who also happen to blog. These social outlets are ways to be more social not less. That’s why I love them all! I’ve got my twitter buds, and my facebook buds, and all of you, my buds from my blog!
- There are parties at Blogher. Then there are parties. Then there is another party. Most of these parties are sponsored by companies. For example, thanks to Filtrete I got to wake up Saturday morning, head outside and do a little yoga by the water at a party they sponsored.
Think I do that every day? Let’s try I’ve NEVER done that before. Check it off the bucket list.
- Then, there is the Expo Hall. This place is crazy. It is filled with companies that want you to know about their product. How do they do it? They give us bloggers swag and hope that we’ll love the product enough to want to share it with you. How much swag is involved? Waaaaay too much swag.
The sheer amount of swag has meant I’ve spent a lot of time putting stuff away. Because I didn’t have enough to do with the laundry, the house, the kids, the carpool…
What do I want to be doing instead of getting the house back in shape after my trip to Blogher? Sitting outside enjoying the rest of the summer and drinking iced tea.
Here’s where the giveaway comes in. I got swag. The people who gave me the swag want you to have it. So, I’m gonna give it to you! I picked out my most favorite-est of favorites out of everything I got this weekend and I want to give it to YOU!
You can WIN a box of Sunburst Green Mighty Leaf Iced Tea! PLUS, you’ll win a Koko Soft Spout BPA-Free water bottle to drink it from! And, I’m throwing in some Dr.’s Remedy nail polish. After all, you’ll be sipping tea, not doing dishes!
How do you win? Leave me a comment letting me know “What one thing do you still want to do this summer?”

One thing I’d still like to do this summer is go to the beach with my family. My daughter and I went once, but we havent been able to go as a family because of everyone’s work schedules.
Thanks!

I would love to go camping in our popup at the beach!
I would still like a job interview. Oh, and go to the beach. Preferably in celebration.
I hope to get the house unpacked enough (from the move) that I can clean out the travel trailer and have a camping weekend at the coast or the rainforest before the fall rains start.
And I like you on Facebook.
I’d like to go out with my husband! We haven’t had a date in so long and since the kids don’t have to get up for school (and I don’t have to get them ready!), this would be a great time. momlovesdeals at gmail dot com
Hi Andrea, glad you got to go, you deserve a nice trip for all the great healthy deals and tips you have shared, thanks. I still would like to go to an outdoor concert in the park or movie in the park and have a picnic on our blanket using ball glass jars for food and votive candle. That bottle and tea would be a nice addition to our picnic.
I want to go on vacation!!

I want to have a family outing to Williamsburg before the summer is over
I still want to take a little roadtrip this summer…not sure where, though.
I’m enjoying the last few weeks of having my only child still at home this summer – preschool starts way too soon for this Mama!
Liked on Facebook!
I’d still like to participate in a 5k.
I’d like to take my dog to the beach!
Hmm.. This summer, I would like to go to the beach. It’s not far and we usually go at least once. Haven’t gone yet this summer unfortunately.

I heart swag, I do, I do!!
I have a whole summer fun list of things I wanted to do this summer. Thankfully, most of them have been done, but I still need to enjoy homemade ice cream. Seriously, why have I waited so long for that one???
I like you on Facebook through my Simply Rebekah page. Does that count?? (If not, just delete this comment.)
