I am a Quaker and I love me some oatmeal! I also love to envision a world where no one goes hungry. So, I LOVE that Quaker Oats is mixing fun and giving with their Create Your Day Campaign. Big, HUGE thanx to Rachel over at A Southern Fairytale for shining a light on it…

Quaker has created an application that allows you to Create Your Day.   Go to their website and create the perfect breakfast for you, for a friend, your child’s teacher, your husband.. whomever you’d like.   Using their application, answer a few questions and it creates a fun card with the ideal oatmeal to get them revved and ready for whatever lies ahead of them that day.  It then allows you to share it via email or facebook.  For every dish that you create (4 per day) through March 31, 2010… they will donate $1 up to $25,000 whoops… $25,o0o has already been donated!!! So they’ve upped the ante to $50,000.

Let’s make Quaker eat that $50,000 and up it to $75,000.

Please help me in this.  No child, no family, no person in this country should go hungry.

The App is super cute and fun… I could play around with it all day… @thisisnotapril says I am like a cat… which is so totally a compliment in our neck of the woods.

So here is my super cute Create Your Day story…

Quaker Oats Create Your Day Charitable Giving

(How did they know peaches and cream is my favorite oatmeal? It’s like oatmeal magic!)

Anyway… whether you are as entertained by this as I am or not… go check out the oatmeal magic… create your day… and help Quaker Oats do a little towards ending hunger.

Go on now… go… now>>> oooo… and then tell me what kind of oatmeal did you get… I wanna know – and then go tell Rachel cause she’s got some cool stuff to give away!

#best09 cont… December 15 Best packaging. Did your headphones come in a sweet case? See a bottle of tea in another country that stood off the shelves?

03121iFound THE cutest packaging for Salt Water Taffy (one of my all times fav candies… its the one I will cross the aisle and break the “if it ain’t chocolate it ain’t worth it” rule.) I am sucker for Salt Water Taffy… I can’t even describe how cool I think it is to visit the Ice Cream Bar on The Strand in Dickenson, TX on days they are making Taffy… its SO cool.

I came across an all natural Salt Water Taffy this year at Whole Foods packaged very similiarly to the Sweet Candy Company twists shown here. We all went ga-ga for the packaging here at the Schipul Office. Its not often that someone comes up with packaging for a product that we even notice… let alone stop and talk about.
