Popchips Giveaway!

popchips Daily Contest!

February is National Snack Month. I figured the best way to celebrate would be a giveaway for the first week! Since many of you have expressed interest in popchips, I decided they would be the perfect prize!

From popchips.com:

all the flavor.
where’s the fat.
Introducing an all-natural chip like you’ve never tasted before. We don’t fry it (unhealthy). We don’t bake it (undelicious). We take the finest ingredients, like wholesome potatoes, apply heat and pressure, and pop! It’s a chip. Then we use an artful blend of natural seasonings for a snack so tasty, crispy and dip-able, you won’t even notice it’s (we hesitate to say) healthier.

What’s out? Half the fat of fried potato chips, trans fats, saturated fats, and cholesterol. All gone. For good. What’s popped in? Only what’s natural, tons of delicious, and plenty of crunch.

Starting today, I will be giving away one case of popchips every day this week! That is 5 cases of popchips for you to win! There are 4 ways to enter:

  • Link this contest back to your blog
  • Add me to you blogroll (e-mail me to let me know)
  • Post a comment below
  • Subscribe to the popchips Newsletter (Be sure to type “Missy Maintains” into the Credo line so I can track who entered)

I will choose a winner each day this week at 8:00 pm Est, 5:00 pm Pst. The contest will end Friday, February 6th. Good luck!

Superbowl Sunday

I had a fun and relaxing Superbowl. My friend and I decided to watch the game at my house with a nice case of beer:

We made sure to stock up on lots of snacks!

I started off the game with a Coors Light. I squeezed lemon and lime in there to give it a nice flavor.

We first brought out some ruffles and hummus. Yum!

Beer # 2:

He then brought out pickles and Fat Free Mozzarella Cheese.

He did not love the cheese because he is used to the full fat kind but bought the healthier version for me! How nice. I enjoyed it! I love all cheese!

Beer # 3!

Towards the end of the game, he brought out the pudding we made on Saturday!

So good! We finished the entire bowl! Oops! The game was exciting because he is a HUGE Steelers Fan so we were cheering in my room, probably annoying the neighbors! Too bad!

After the game, the worst thing EVER happened!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My friend said in a joking way that he has been hearing noises and I should double check my mouse traps to make sure they still work. I have had about 4 mice so far in this apartment. One ran by my foot in the middle of the night when I was getting a snack one time. Mice are probably my biggest fear. I immediately start hysterically crying and can’t breathe when I see one. One crawled up my legs at the movies once so you can imagine why I am so scared!

I have the kind of electric traps where the mouse goes in gets electrocuted and a light will start flashing if it caught one. We go in the kitchen and I am just randomly pressing the switch on and off to see if the light still works. Turns out the trap was off for a long time. As I am on my knees, I see a mouse run out by my hand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I start screaming and crying and sprint into my room hiding in my covers. My friend had no clue what happened since he did not see it himself. He ran back in the kitchen and tried to find it but it was gone. I was in total shock because we have not had one in a few months. I was just messing around with the trap and I happen to see one!

He comes back in my room and tells me there is a dead mouse already in the trap which is why it probably has not been working!! I start freaking out crying again. I cannot believe I have been living with a dead mouse in the kitchen for god knows how long! I called my landlord and she said she would get an exterminator out ASAP. Ugh!
We put more peanut butter in the electric traps and stuck a bunch of sticky traps next to it.

I woke up this morning to a flashing light. We caught the mouse! I am still so terrified to go into my kitchen!!!! I need to move!

I got to work today and brought out my oatmeal ingredients:

I made a nice cup of coffee to wake myself up a bit.

I started off with oats, banana, and cinnamon:

I added skim milk, freeze dried apple, and 1/4 of an Honest Foods Blueberry Vanilla Crackle Granola Plank.

I loved the Honest Foods topping! This flavor was delicious!!

Don’t forget to enter The EGN Giveaway! (After entering mine of course!!)

Good luck!!!

    Oh my! I am so sorry to hear about the mice problems! You feel about mice the way I feel about spiders. I cry every time I see one that’s bigger than the tip of my finger! I hope that the exterminator fixes the problem for you!

    Thanks for the awesome giveaway! I have yet to try those popchips and would love the opportunity! I will try to remember to link back this post to you, too!

    Thanks for letting me know about your giveaway. I’ve never heard of Popchips, but I bet they’d be good with hummus ;)

    Yikes! I have used havaheart traps for years and they do the job . . . as long as you don’t mind taking the mice outside and letting them go.

    I would love to try popchips, esp. if they’re vegan! :-)

    AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!! O.M.G. you NEED to move asap. i cant even imagine – your fear is 100% justified. YUCK times a million. atleats there was a boy there to deal with it. i dont think id be able to sleep at night after that. have you tried those clicker things that plug into your outlets? apparently they make a sound that the mice cant stand so it keeps them away (no messy disposal needed)

    i cant wait for the popchips giveaway. they DO seem like the perfect salty yet healthy snack.
