For those of you who know me, you know that I am a snacker. In fact, my good friends, when they come to visit, head straight for my pantry and know they can help themselves to whatever they can fine – which is most typically just about anything!

Salty snacks, sweets, and dried fruit can be found just about any time you look. And a birthday party at the Young’s house is just not complete without a few strategically placed bowls of Muddy Buddies!

Well, I am excited about the prospect of adding Chex Mix Bars to my pantry shelf. These new snacks combine crunchy Chex pieces, pretzels and peanuts with chewy and indulgent ingredients like caramel and chocolate – Sounds like the perfect combination of sweet and salty, doesn’t it? And if that´s not enough, they have less than 150 calories per bar and provide at least 8 of the 48 grams of the daily recommended whole grain!

There are lots of ways for the snacker to enter. Here’s what you need to do:

• Leave me a comment on this post, by 9pm on February 1st, telling me about your favorite snack.

• Since we’ve bonded over a shared love for snacks, I figured I would offer you another entry…. You may enter a second time by leaving another comment, telling me what else you and I have in common. Be sure you read more about me first!

• For additional entries feel free to grab my button and place it on your sidebar, send a tweet, or leave the link to this giveaway on your Facebook page. Be sure to leave me a separate comment with a link to your blog, tweet or Facebook page.

Do you remember when I first mentioned Mabel’s Labels? I told you how great they are to keep track of toys and sippy cups, but I do believe they would greatly aid in organization, as well…. Something I desperately need to learn how to do!

I don’t know about you, but we love starting school again after taking a bit of a break! Not only would these handy little labels be great for staying organized, but they will also help keep track of your kiddos’ school supplies and personal belongings.

The Ultimate Back to School Combo is only available for a limited time only (until September 31st, 2008) and is worth $39.00 for a pack of 40 Skinny-Minis™, 50 Tag-Mates™, 16 Shoe Labels, 2 Bag Tags

All labels are dishwasher/microwave/laundry safe and UV resistant.

My little Princess Ballerina flipped over Prima Princessa, the animated fairy ballerina who magically transported her to see the narrated ballet, Swan Lake. Between each act, my little Princess dances and twirls, along with the young dancers, while learning the official ballet steps, and after each performance she begs for more with her squeals of, “Encore, encore!”

Oh, and don’t tell them that I told you this, but even my boys were captivated!

There are TWO copies of Prima Princessa to be won by From Dates to Diapers readers!

Here’s how to enter:

• Visit www.primaprincessa.com and leave a comment here telling me one thing you learned about how it all came to be. This will earn you one entry.

• For an optional entry, post a link to this giveaway and mention Prima Princessa, on your blog. Leaving me the url to your post will earn you an entry.
