otally cool:
5 Minutes for Mom is having a giveaway for a gorgeous retro Pedal Car. If you don’t fall head over heels for the pedal car, Pedal Cars and Retro Collectibles has other cool items you could use a gift certificate on. Personally, I’m torn between the car and a retro record player.

‘m not sure how long this contest lasts, but you have the chance to win a sling of your choice from Mod Mum over on The Domestic Diva blog.
I use a wrap, but would love to try a pouch sling. It would be so much faster to put it on and pop the baby in for fast trips to the store. 
Mod Mum has some really cute ones, too.

y mom asked me to email her an early Christmas list for the grandkids this year. She wanted time to mail them all out rather than try and bring them on the airplane with her. I don’t blame her. I have six kids so you can imagine how heavy that would get even at one gift per person.
But I also knew how easy it would be if my mom would shop online and have everything shipped here. My mom has emailed, chatted and a few other things, but shopping online? Not so much.
I had to introduce her to this wonderful way of beating the holiday madness at the local stores and post office.
I created a public wish list on Amazon and put the child’s name in the comment box for each item. Any gift idea not available on Amazon or if I could find it cheaper, I added a direct link to the item. Then I put prices next to everything to help her choose the price range she wanted.
Since she was new to this, I told her to give me a call and I’d walk her through it over the phone. She chose to work solely with the Amazon list and do everything in one transaction at one place. I don’t blame her. Shopping online can be intimidating for someone who has never done it before.
When it was all done and she’d set up her account, I mentioned that this would be a great way for her to shop for birthday items, too. She’s hooked.
This takes the Christmas List to a whole new level of ease for grandparents. Even more so for those who don’t live close by. They can have it shipped directly to you and either pay a little more for wrapping or you can offer to do wrap it for them as it arrives.
Speaking of wrapping gifts, I have a great family traditionrelated to Christmas gift wrapping. But you’ll have to wait until the next Works for Me Wednesday! Now, go visit Rocks in My Dryer to read great tips from the other players.

‘m thrilled to start off my product reviews with Homemade Mama. Pietra is a WAHM homeschooling her five children and sewing products such as cloth pads, Binky Blankys, nursing pads, and more for other mamas.
I have used Homemade Mama cloth pads for a while now and I love them. The pads are well-made, comfortable, and hold up after many washings. She offers pads in a variety of sizes, thicknesses, styles and fabrics to meet your needs. Mine store nicely in a matching drawstring bag. I love that I can fold them up to fit discreetly in my purse and the small wet bag is great for holding used pads until I’m home again.
Pietra also carries packages for teens in some fun and funky fabrics. I have two teen daughters who use Homemade Mama cloth pads and really like the softer alternative to disposable pads.
If you’d like to learn more, she has an FAQ at the bottom of her cloth pad page. After your try cloth pads, you won’t want to go back to the disposables. You can’t beat cloth for softness and comfort.
Check out her website and have fun with the Homemade Mama Birthday Celebration November 15th. Homemade Mama turns three and is giving you the gifts. How cool is that? Click on the banner to learn more about the giveaway and then visit the Homemade Mama Website on the 15th.

elcome to a dash of sassitude which is looking anything but sassy at the moment. You can help me with that. First, let me tell you what a dash of sassitude is all about.
I’ll be showcasing items with sass for moms and their darlings, both the little ones and the big ones (that would be your hubby) as I come across them. If I’ve personally tested something out, I’ll post a review.
As a mom of six, I’ll review products for moms, children from babies to teens (I’ll include their reactions, too) and husbands/dads. I’ve reviewed books for a couple of years now and I think it will be fun to branch out into other items for review.
I’ll also let you know about any fantabulous give aways I come across. At some point, I may even hold giveaways myself. If you’d like to sponsor a giveaway, let me know.
Now, how can you help a dash of sassitude become a fun and sassy place to hang out? I’d like to include your link (or button) if you offer something a sassy mama would appreciate. I especially want to support WAHMs who have a product a mama with sassitude needs to know about.
You can reach me at the email address on the sidebar. Now don’t forget to answer the poll under my profile.
Disclaimer: This is a Christian and family friendly site, so please respect that in regards to what you’d like me to review, what you’d like to sponsor in a giveaway, and I’ll only link to sites that don’t conflict with those two criteria. Thank you.
