Turtle Chex Mix Bars - A Review

Thanks to the people at MyBlogSpark, I was sent this Basket of Indulgence and new Turtle Chex Mix Bars to try. I was super excited as I love the Turtle Chex Mix. Besides the bars, the basket includes - 3 tea light size candles, caramel buttercream body lotion, a loofah, hand massager, nail brush and a spa towel.

I don't "indulge" enough. Working full-time and having a 3 year old (and a husband) to take care of I don't get much of a chance. I like to try to go shopping alone, at the mall. It's sad that is an indulgance now.

cdziuba said...

I rush through my housework so I have time to myself.thentye

Giazz said...

Wow, how do I indulge myself. Hmm, well, I would like to say I don't have a whole lot of time to myself, but when I do, I like to sit and relax by knitting or performing music, or taking a bath or just meditating. I would love to try that Turtle Chex Mix though, I love chocolate Turtles, so crunchy and yummy. Let's hope this includes me for the drawing. :)

Honestly, I don't find the time to indulge myself, I really need to find that time though.

quitecontrary1977 said...

I always find time to take a hot bath and let my mind drift off for a minute. It renews me!

Kristine said...

Yum!!!

If I have time to really indulge, and the money to spend, I'll go to the spa for a facial and pedicure. Heaven!

But, since that rarely happens true indulgence for me at home is a long, hot bubble bath with a good book and a glass of wine.

sleeslee said...

Am I actually the first to post? :)

I pamper myself with chocolate! I've tried these Turtle Chex Mix bars -- they are very good!

Bonnie said...

I love to indulge myself with just taking time by myself and walking the mall and window shopping

Queen-Size funny bone said...

i lock myself in the car and read.

Ashley said...

I don't get enough time to myself. On Fridays when I do the grocery shopping and everything though, I take my time and slowly wander down the aisles and look at things. It's nice to get out.

Reeva said...

Chelle said...

I indulge myself by having a glass (or two) of wine and reading a good book...it's a rare treat and I treasure it anytime I get a few moments.

Amber said...

I go in the sauna after every aerobics workout at the fitness studio. It is the best way to calm down and I always feel so much better afterwards.

Thank you for the giveaway - please enter me!

AmandaK said...

I never have time to myself, but about once a month, I ask everyone to leave the house and go see a movie. During that time, I soak in the bathtub and read a good book. I get to de-stress and when they come home, they see how vibrant I look with just a few hours to myself.

leslierose said...

I don't really get to indulge with two small kids. If I have a chance I like to take an uninterupted shower. Or go shopping.

lizzykristine said...

This is not a good solution, but usually I find time by leaving dishes until the next day. :)

Mia J. said...

I try to get things done early in the day so that I can maybe sit down and read a good book. That is the best.

Dana (the Homesteading Housewife) said...

As the mother of 5, with a hubby who is working out of town, "Me time" is in short supply around our farm.

But I do manage to sneak in some reading and a little quiet time after they go to bed or, in the early pre-dawn hours before they get up.

Sheila said...

My usual time for indulgence is after I drop the kids off at school and before I pick them up again. If it wasn't for school, I would get no "me" time. :)

Brenda said...

I try to in the small amount of time I have between putting my kids to be and going to bed myself.

Minxy Mimi said...

I indulge myself by having my hubby watch the boys and just going and having a coffee alone, or doing some fun shopping!

Loralynn said...

I like to indulge once the kids are all off to school. I like to snuggle up with a good book, a cup of chocolate coffee and a warm blanket!

Becca said...

If the kids every nap at the same time! What a treat to win! Thanks! cross_home2001 (at) yahoo (dot) com

Tiffany said...

Holly said...

I take time for myself when my kids are at school. It's the only time I get! Great giveaway. Thanks!

goin-crazy said...

As a single parent, I rarely get time to undluge myself. If I can find the time, it is usually a bath or reading a book.

Christy said...

Does sneaking in the bathroom and pretending your not there count? Just joking. Curling up with a good book and soaking in a hot bath is my idea of indulgence.

Thanks,
Christy

Bev said...

To indulge myself I grab a book. Nothing makes me disappear more than a good story. Thanks for the giveaway.

Kristin said...

I indulge by getting up really early (when my DH does) or by taking a bath.

Kimberly said...

I "indulge" by taking a nap and letting my husband deal with dinner dishes and the kids. I know that is not "exciting" but it helps to refresh me.

Um, I surf the web and read blogs late into the night? My real indulgence is settling down with a book and a cookie/muffin/slice of cake after the kids are in bed.

Judy said...

I indulge by putting my boys to bed and curling up on the couch with a good book...I don't do it nearly enough either.

jsc123 said...

A couple of times a week my husband will take my children to the park for a couple of hours. That is when I take a long soak in a hot tub filled with bubbles. Add some soft music and softly scented candles and I am in heaven :) It definitely beats the quick showers that I take the rest of the week.
Thank you so much for offering this wonderful giveaway.
I would LOVE to win !!

Qtpies7 said...

I hide treats and eat them when the kids are gone, sleeping or occupied.
I always make sure that I get a night out with the girls, too. Lots of laughter and fun and good food! Never miss it.

I make daddy take the kids over to grandmas so I can just sit and veg out for a while.

Now that I'm an at home mom I get lots of time to myself. I wait to have breakfast and coffee until after I drop my son at school so I can take my time.

cylis9 said...

I really don't find much time to indulge myself. Unless watching Survivor while folding clothes counts?

My husband and I sometimes drop our kids off at youth group and then go to the Cheesecake Factory to indulge in a slice of cheesecake.

Leia said...

My "indulgences" come in the form of ALONE time while daddy takes the little man off on some adventure. Hubs is great about just doing this of his own volition from time to time. One of the MANY reasons I love him so much. Plus, he's hot! :)

birrrd said...

Well some people wouldn't think this was induldging but when I drop off my daughter at preschool I head to the thrift stores. I love being able to walk around and really search through the racks and stuff without having to keep her entertained! I should be at home doing housework but I take the two hours to shop by myself for treasures!

AudreyO said...

I take time each night before bed to either make a phone call, watch a DVD or read a book. I so need that time just for me.

TXsunlover said...

I get my quiet time after everyone else is asleep! That's when I can read a book, watch a movie that I want to watch, take a hot bath, or just sit and listen to the peace & quiet! Oh, and that's when I eat chocolate because I don't have to share!

Amy said...

I try to take some time right after I get home from work to sit down with a cup of tea. It helps me to "switch gears" before I need to start dinner.

Nicole said...

Nap time is when I get a chance to relax. I will surf the net or grab a good book.

Jenny said...

I'd love to indulge in a nap later, we'll see if it happens!

Sandra said...

Truthfully..I don't really find time to indulge myself...at this point in my life sleep is considered an indulgence and I am not getting nearly enough. Most days I have multiple things to complete long after my son goes to bed. I know this too shall pass...and I am looking forward to sleeping in again!

Now that it's football season, I have a little time to myself. My husband will go to his friend's house with our son and leave me alone for a few hours. Most of that time is spent cleaning, but I do try to steal an hour or too to give myself a pedicure, or sit down and watch my favorite drama show. Thanks for the great giveaway!
