Hot Mama In The City

Are you ready for the BIG GAME this Sunday? I know that we are! We can’t wait for the Super Bowl especially because this will be the first time that it will be broadcast in Spanish by Fox Deportes! To celebrate, The Muppets gang and Toyota will take a ride into history this year, connecting with Latinos across the country for the upcoming Toyota Highlander launch and the Muppets’ all-new big-screen adventure “Muppets Most Wanted,” in theaters March 21, 2014.
Catch The Muppets in four commercials for the all-new 2014 Toyota Highlander that will debut on Fox Sports Deportes during the historic first Spanish-language broadcast of the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 2.

Freezing weather and televised sporting events mean that you need to add a warm and delicious dip to your recipe collection. This recipe for  a cheesy sausage dip hits the spot every time. It's the perfect mix of comfort food and game day snack. Serve it up at your next party!

The kid's have been sporting some awesome and totally trendy shades from Paxley. The kid's haven't left the house to play outside since we received them last month. Paxley Sunglasses are designed to fit your child perfectly, with 3 different sizes to fit child from 0-5 years old. A perfect fit makes for a comfortable wearing experience and Paxley states that if sunglasses fit well then children are more likely to wear them and protect their delicate eyes. The sunglasses offer great protection for their eyes and the delicate skin around their eyes with 100% UVA and UVB protection. For the kid's, it's a fashion statement. For me, it's about protection.

Please join Walgreens and Latina Mom Bloggers on Thursday, February 5th at 6 pm PST/9 pm EST for a “What is Med-D?” Bilingual Twitter party! We’ll be sharing useful information about Medicare Part D, sharing tips to ensure that your parents and elderly loved ones receive the care that they need and talk about how you save money on co-pays. We’ll also be giving away over $400 in Walgreens gift cards!

Many of us have fitness goals that we would love to accomplish and other's simply enjoy being active on a daily basis. For many of us have even created a "Workout" playlist on our music playing devices. For me, I have to have my music blasting in my ears during my workouts. I'll be honest, I don't enjoy working out as much as some people out there so listening to music helps the time pass and gets me moving. Studies have shown that music can increase the intensity and duration of a workout by as much as 15%, I honestly believe that. When I'm listening to my music during my workout, I noticed how much faster and longer I can go.

Oriental Trading has an awesome Valentine Sale featuring some of their best selling Valentine Candy and Valentine Cards.

The Sip and Snack Feeding Set is the perfect combination for your little one. It includes 2 No-Spill Flip-it (10oz/300ml) cups and 2 Snack Keepers, all by Nûby.

The No-Spill Flitp-it cups and Snack Keeper makes it easier to take snacks on-the-go and will help avoid messy spills.

Walgreens has so many great and convenient services, both in person and online. You can always stop by at your local Walgreens to speak to your pharmacist for any questions you have about your health or medications. Walgreens online has many features that include medication refill reminders, prescription history and pharmacy chat; a feature that allows you to speak to a live pharmacist from the comfort of your own home at anytime of the day or night.

The Nûby Splash n’ Catch Bathtime Fishing Set teaches coordination, development and enjoyment. It features four colorful characters that can be linked together and caught in the net.

The kids love playing together with this Splash n' Catch at bath-time and on our water table outside. One of them will throw the rings while the other tries to catch it in the net, they are learning hand and eye coordination while they play with each other.  This fun bath-time toy can be used in the bath, water table or pool.

This post is part of the HEALTHY ESSENTIALS® 2014 program by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies, Inc. and The Motherhood, who sent me a box of products and compensated me for my time. Opinions, experiences and photos shared here are all my own, and I hope you enjoy them.

On the 12th day of Christmas my true love gave to me... many of us are very familiar with the 12 days of Christmas carol. For many cultures around the world including Latin cultures, the celebrations of the holiday season doesn't end until the 12th day of Christmas also known as "Dia de los Reyes", "Three Kings Day"  or "Feast of the Epiphany" on January 6th. Many celebrate the holiday with family, feast and the exchange of gifts along with other traditions from their culture. I've never celebrated the holiday with my family personally but know of many other Latino families who do. Latinos love to celebrate family, traditions and good food no matter the reason.
