    Ugly Christmas Sweater

    Oh yeah baby, I get to host ANOTHER Ugly Christmas Sweater GIVEAWAY!!! Can I get a whoop whoop!! Y’all know that I’ve been a fan of the The Ugly Christmas Sweater store for YEARS. I’ve been lucky enough to do reviews and giveaways with them since 2013. I STILL love this store. I STILL love the quirky things they have. Once again, I declare it’s the BEST Ugly Christmas Sweater store in the WORLD. Yeah, I said it. IN THE WORLD! HA! I dare you to argue with me…… but DENIED. This mama Peanut declares it so. If at all possible, I’m more excited about this year’s giveaway than previous years because ya know Christmas in Sandpoint, Idaho is way different than Christmas in Southern California!! 60 miles from Mexico vs 60 miles from Canada (do I know how to go to extremes or WHAT?!) I’ve been telling you since 2013 that the UglyChristmasSweater.com has an amazing selection of funny, UGLY, silly,…

  • Merry Christmas Little Peanuts!

    Merry Christmas

    Merry Christmas everyone. I hope you enjoy your day! May 2019 be a spectacular for us all! Let’s Ask Google To Swing Around Here Again Every so often I grab a giant digital dust rag and wander through PeanutButterAndWhine.com, polishing up my older posts like antique teacups at a yard sale. Updating old content isn’t just housekeeping, it’s pure SEO sparkle. Fresh keywords, tighter titles, faster images, better links. All the little tweaks that whisper sweet nothings to Google and say, “Hey… I’m still relevant.” Search engines love fresh bread, not stale crumbs. So I’m rewriting, refreshing, and straightening the shelves so you can find recipes, reviews, crafts, and giveaways faster than a squirrel spotting peanuts. 🐿️ While you’re visiting, check the sidebar for the current giveaway at👉 https://peanutbutterandwhine.com Also, please tell me you’re using Rakuten. Getting paid to shop feels delightfully rebellious, like cookies before dinner but financially responsible:👉 https://www.rakuten.com So if something looks shinier around here, that’s just…

    Stocking stuffer ideas

    I have a super cute Christmas idea for those of you who have little girls to shop for. When I opened the box with my little Cry Babies doll in it I couldn’t get to my phone fast enough! My youngest sister’s name is Lea! What are the chances that I get Lea to review? (BTW, I did NOT mail the baby to my sister. Lea is MINE! Okay, maybe 7-year-old Alice’s too. (maybe!) That’s not all! One of the other Cry Babies is named Coney! WHATTTTTTT??????????Cry Babies Lala, Lea, Bonnie and Coney come dressed in different removable animal onesies. Lea happens to be dressed in Alice’s favorite pink and purple leopard print. Each baby has her own pacifier, with big beautiful eyes and colorful hair. Cry Babies are the perfect size for kids to carry around, rock and play with. Their arms and legs move. The best part though? These babies cry real tears!! Behind the bonnets is a small lid,…

    For their eighth fully animated feature, Illumination and Universal Pictures present The Grinch, based on Dr. Seuss’ beloved holiday classic.

Each year at Christmas they disrupt his tranquil solitude with their increasingly bigger, brighter and louder celebrations. When the…

    Twin girls

    Any parent of twins (or indeed just two small children of similar ages) will know that once they discover jealousy and begin to snatch at whatever the other has, your days of buying one of anything for the next decade are gone.
