Thanks to our friends at MyBlogSpark, you have the chance to win yummy food!

Now what is the deal with the food? If you’re anything like me, you like to snack during the day. Maybe you get a hankering for something sweet AND salty at the same time. Maybe you want something that’s easy to grab and go? Maybe perhaps both but don’t want to spend a ton of money on that taco from Taco Bell? May I introduce to you Chex Mix Turtle bars! They are a delicious snack that includes caramel, chocolate, peanuts, Chex Mix, and pretzels! To read my take, go to Chex Mix Review.

How many winners will there be and how can you win it? There will be three (3) winners and each winner will receive 2 boxes of ChexMix Turtle bars! If you want to win one of those spots, all you have to do is answer the follow question:

After a long day, I love to relax by putting on soft music and relaxing in a warm bath.
Thanks.

12. Alicia Webster - July 1, 2009

I have a three-year-old, a two-year-old, and a one-year-old AND I am a stay-at-home-mom AND I don’t drive so I never get to leave the house SO pretty much every day is a hard day. My unwinding and relaxation comes when my husband gets home (at 7:30 PM). The kids focus on him, and so I am finally able to take a shower. Then they go to bed at 8:30, and I talk to my hubby and read a chapter or two of my book, and then go to bed. Ahhhhhhh…..peace and quiet.

I put my feet up and ever watch tv (usually HGTV or Style if Clean House is on) or grab a book and read for a while.

26. Pat - July 1, 2009

I unwind by taking a walk in my fairly rural neighborhood. As I follow the dirt trails I am almost always in the company of the hawk and the deer. In season there are migrating birds such as the Great Blue Heron. Sometimes I spot a coyote and once I even saw a bobcat. Besides admiring the animals I take note of what’s blooming in the fields; Spring always brings bright yellow mustard flowers. After an hour of brisk walking I head home, the concerns of the day erased and replaced by the soothing sights, sounds and fragrances of nature.

Thank you for the contest. Happy Fourth of July!

55. Darlene - July 2, 2009

I am so stressed when I come home after a hard day at work. I usually start by eating too much. Depending on the circumstances, my husband and I may go to the fitness center to work out. I just walk the track but it really helps unwind. If my husband walks with me we talk. If he decides to use the machines then I bring my ipod and listen to music while I walk. When we come home I watch Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. I may go online for awhile and then take a nice, hot bath. I like the water to be really hot. Then it is time for bed.

56. pat ramey - July 2, 2009

take a shower, watch a little tv

57. Carol G - July 2, 2009

Curl up with a piece of good chocolate and a good book.

58. May Schultz - July 2, 2009

If I’m alone I usually put music on, and it DOES soothe the “savage breast”. If my husband is here, too, I’ll stretch out on the couch and watch TV with him, and if I don’t like what he’s watching, I’ll just read a book instead.

59. Joannie - July 2, 2009
