Review and GIVEAWAY: Michigan Mittens {ends 1/1/18}

*Disclosure: I received product in exchange for this blog post. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own.

 I recently saw a post on my friend Jennifer's blog about Michigan Mittens, and I was intrigued—the mittens looked so cute, and I love supporting local businesses. I reached out to them and they sent me two pairs of their mittens for review, and they also agreed to a giveaway for my lucky readers!


I was sent two pairs of mittens for review, the Original Michigan Mittens, in Fog Grey, and a pair of Superior USA Michigan Mittens. I tried out the Original Michigan Mittens, and they are very soft, which I liked. I usually prefer gloves to mittens, but I can definitely see myself wearing these this winter.


These would also make a cute gift for any Michigander, or perhaps a Michigander who no longer lives in-state.


The packaging on them is also really nice (see above), which is another reason to give them as a gift.


The USA mittens are a bit thicker and would be better for colder weather (i.e., perfect for a Michigan winter). The Michigan Mittens are a little thinner than the USA ones, but not super thin, which is nice.


My mittens also came with a few Michigan postcards and this handy dandy "Michigan Mittens Official Wearers Guide," as you can see above.

It's hard to take your own picture while wearing mittens, so I had
my boyfriend be my mittens model ... 

Overall, these are very nice mittens and I like that you can show off your state pride while wearing them, too.

You can find Michigan Mittens at michiganmittens.com.

Review: Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins

*Disclosure: I received a gift card to try the new Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. Baskin-Robbins launched its Polar Pizza last month (July), as I talked about in my recent post about them, and because this past month was crazy busy for me, I didn't get to try the Polar Pizza until this past Sunday. My parents and I went to the combined Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin-Robbins near them, in Novi, MI, to split one of the ice cream pizzas.

*Disclosure: I have an ongoing media relationship with Broadway in Detroit. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own.
