BzzAgent is a WOM (Word of Mouth) Marketing Company. It’s free (one of my favorite words!). You take surveys (very simple on question) about items that pertain to you. This way BzzAgent can find / offer you samples that would interest you and your family. I signed up a few weeks back and got free coupons to sample Dr. Oetker Ristorante Pizza. After you test your product, you need to go back to BzzAgent to write a review. The better your reveviw and sharing the more products you’ll get.

I gotta tell you. We tried the Ristorante Pizza Mozzarella for lunch, I loved it! I’m usually not a huge fan of frozen pizza. The crust was crunchy and the pizza was very flavorful. You know how sometimes, frozen foods smell better than they taste. Not this pizza, the tomato, mozzarella and pesto seemed like they were made that morning. I really enjoyed this pizza and I’m heading back to the store to stock up! Ristorante Pizzas come in six (6) flavors – Pizza Spinaci, Mozzarella, Funghi, Vegetale, Quattro Formaggi and Speciale.

Enjoy!

Garlic, Garlic, and More Garlic

Posted by html404 on February 10, 2012
in Food and Treats

Remember my garlic? Well it never got planted and some of them were starting to get soft so I got all my little people together to peel and separate them so we could freeze them. I could have dehydrated them but didn’t. We could still do that with some of them though.

So I thought with all the photos I took, they would make a Fun with Food post today. Here are pictures of my crew:

Breakfast & Dinner – Fun with Food Friday

Posted by html404 on February 3, 2012

My daughter and I are still taking photos. Besides the children we like taking pictures of food. Due to a local Amazon deal, we are taking a 3-hour photography boot camp at the end of the month with a local photographer. We are looking forward to it and hoping to pick up a few new tips. Maybe you will see an improvement in our amateur pictures! Ha!

Drum roll please….for some breakfast and dinner shots taken by yours truly:

Yummy Fun with Food Fridays

Posted by html404 on January 20, 2012
in Food and Treats

Most of these food photos were taken by my oldest daughter. She loves taking close ups of food. I have to admit that I think it’s cool too how the camera/the eye captures particular shots. This week, I only took the one of my son and the chocolate cake. The cake was made by my other two daughters. The chili and homemade pancake photos were taken by Virtuous. Yummy fun with food Fridays!

I introduced Fun with Food Fridays last week. It is simply me (or my daughter or a combination of the two) taking pictures of food. This week’s feature includes clementines, bananas, and peanut butter and honey popcorn.

It’s hard to remember to take pictures of food when you are trying to feed ten hungry people!

Introducing Fun with Food Fridays!

We have had fun taking pictures of food lately with our new camera. I know, a tell tale sign that we have been taken by the shutter bug. These are intermixed photos taken by my daughter and I. Here is our fun with food:
