DREAMWORKS ANIMATION INTRODUCES HILARIOUS AND OFFBEAT NEW SERIES THE MIGHTY ONES
PREMIERING ON HULU & PEACOCK

The 10-episode first season premieres on Hulu and Peacock ​November 9, 2020

It isn’t easy being small, but backyard pals “The Mighty Ones”—aka Rocksy, Twig, Leaf, and Very Berry—see their tiny world as one huge, never-ending adventure. Created and executive produced by animation veterans ​Sunil Hall​ (​Pickle and Peanut, The Mighty B!)​ and ​Lynne Naylor ​(​Samurai Jack, The Ren & Stimpy Show), the 10-episode first season of The Mighty Ones premieres ​November 9, 2020,​ on Hulu and Peacock.

Every backyard contains a secret world filled with tiny creatures. The Mighty Ones follows the hilarious adventures of four small-but-mighty best friends: a twig, a pebble, a leaf, and a strawberry. The pals live in an unkempt yard belonging to a trio of equally unkempt humans and, despite the obstacles they face, are always up for whatever life throws at them. Whether they’re soaring on soda lids, getting stuck in a ball of sticky goop or worshipping a broken toilet, each day holds the promise of new adventures and surprises.

Led by Hall and Naylor, the series’ creative team has worked on some of the most influential animated series of the last two decades (​The Ren & Stimpy Show,​​ SpongeBob SquarePants,​​ The Powerpuff Girls,​​ Samurai Jack, South Park and more)​. The Mighty Ones blends laugh-out-loud storytelling with a distinct visual style—and a whole lot of heart.

DreamWorks The Mighty Ones features the voices of Jessica McKenna (Little Big Awesome) as “Rocksy,” Alex Cazares (The Boss Baby: Back in Business) as “Very Berry,” Jimmy Tatro (Modern Family) as “Leaf,” and Josh Brener (Silicon Valley) as “Twig.”

Get it Delivered Right to Your Door with Meat District

tabbyspantry 1 Comment

We got Meat District free in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are our own

When you love to cook and BBQ as much as we do there is nothing better then a box of awesome meat showing up at your door.  Meat district is ready to cook already seasoned or marinated depending on what you get.  The meat is top quality what I am always wishing I would find at the store and never do . lol

When you head online you can see if they sell in your area very easily.  You can also buy their pre made box for $99.95.  Now the only thing I would change is to let us pick different things to put in the box.  They have so many different flavors of everything I would love to try them all.

There box comes with a little of everything and so far everything we have tried has been fantastic.  The Tri-Tip is out of this world.   Check out the picture below to see all the awesomeness in our box.

It was packed in a great reusable bag, and the ice was still cold when it showed up.

There is no question in my mind that Meat District has to be on the Holiday Gift Guide.

Fur Fur everywhere.  Lol all my animals shed so much I could make a new pet each day from the fur they leave.  A stocking stuffer that truly will be appreciated by any dog or cat owner, these reusable foam balls remove animal fur, hair and other soft debris from clothes without harming fabrics. Simply toss them into the dryer and throw out the lint rollers! Use two or three balls for small loads, and four to five balls for larger ones.

KONG® x Rover Fun Together Box (4 sizes)

We have been huge fans of Kong for a long time. They have a large line of toys and treats for your favorite furry friends.  They actually last even with my babys and they are quality toys.  I love that you can get them their own Kong Box and they have a different size for each animal.  Rover has you covered for all your pet needs this holiday season and the Kong box is just the tip of the iceberg. It features toys and treats from KONG for your dog and some fun human goodies too—including a coloring sheet and pencils, vintage-style key chain, and travel hand sanitizer

Cuddle Clones

Look hoe cute Thor is

I love to have cute accessories with my baby’s face on them.  Cuddle Clones not only will make these cute socks with your pets face they have so many other cute items any pet lover will fall in love with. If you have service pets for your kids like I do, I would highly suggest making your kids the plus out of your pets.   They will have the comfort of their best friend with them forever. Dogs, cats, horses, rabbits … all of those and more can be transformed into stuffed animals that are exact replicas from photos you provide, or emblazoned on blankets, mugs and more. And know that each purchase helps to buy meals for hundreds of cats and dogs waiting in shelters to be adopted. Cuddle Clones is the first company I know that can do socks with our dogs face.  Most turn out to be a mess because they are black dogs and most companies only offer black socks.

 

Native Pet

I love to find great treats and supplements  for my babies.  I want them to stay healthy and they want it to taste great. Native Pet has supplements that get real results and use responsibly sourced clean label ingredients chosen for their power to help pets feel their best. At the moment, they offer three products: organic pumpkin powder (acts as an all-natural stool supplement), bone broth (great for heart health), and yak chews (clean dental chews). Make sure to check out their Pumpkin Spice recipe too 🙂

The Original Tacocat

Now this one is not so much for your furry friend, it is for your furry friend lover and I think it is adorable. The Original Tacocat is perfect for your cat loving friend and your taco loving friend.  This is not only cute, but a great taco saver.  No more spilling on its side.  How cute would these be on taco Tuesday.  The Original Tacocat is an adorable cat-shaped taco holder that includes a silicone insert that helps keep messes at bay.

Bonne et Filou

When this box showed up the babies were all over me they had no idea what they were but they knew they wanted them.  These are macaroons  for your favorite pup. They are  is 100% natural, no preservatives, no artificial colors, wheat-free, corn-free, and backed as well as endorsed by veterinarians. They use human-grade ingredients to make sure each dog is getting a great blend of nutritious foods in each treat. Bonne et Filou’s macaroons will be the perfect holiday treat for your special pet. My babies loved them and even my moms picky dog loved them.  If you are looking to spoil your pooch this holiday make sure to grab a few of these.  We got Mint, Lavender and Strawberry and they loved them all.  I love how they show up the packaging is beautiful and not one Macaroon was broken they were all perfect.

 

Bow Wow Labs

We have gotten the chance to work with Bow Wow Labs a few times and I am still in love to this day. If you have puppies like mine that just inhale their Bully Sticks you know how dangerous that can be.  Bow Wow Labs is perfect for them.  They hold the ends so they can not just swallow them whole.  They are tough and even last with my little destroyers. This year we are going to be able to even give one to a new family member.  You will have to wait till after thanksgiving to see her.  I love that even when they are little we can give them a bully stick and not have to worry.  They even have Bully sticks you can buy right with them to make sure you have everything you need right away.

 

Squishface Wrinkle Paste

I know my dogs are black and don’t really have the problem but my girl Kava does get the tear stains and we like to make sure she always looks and feels her best.  The Wrinkle Paste and Wipes are perfect for her.   These clean and protect your dogs wrinkles, tear stains and even tail pockets.  They are a great price and I love having them here for when other peoples dogs come too.

Alpha Pet Waterproof Couch Cover

If you have not invested in the Alpha Pet Waterproof Couch Cover and you have pets it is a must.  My animals are of course allowed on the furniture.  When the weather turns they love to come in and dry off and pass out on the couch.  It can be wet , dirty and of course they shed. This couch cover is perfect for our house.  Easy to use, easy to clean and 100% waterproof.  This couch cover has been a blessing in our house.  My babies love cuddling up on it and it saves my couch from getting worn out.

3 Pathways to a Career in Human Services

tabbyspantry

Communities all across the country are in need of smart, driven, and empathetic individuals to serve in human services roles. From social workers to psychologists, there will always be a need for people with a heart for service to step in and work to make lives and entire communities, better. If you see yourself working in human services, you have a great many options that you can choose from.

 

In order to find the right pathway in human services for you, you will need to narrow down precisely where your passions lie and where your desire to work for the common good can drive you. Here are three popular pathways to jobs in human services that you can consider as you start your journey to an incredibly rewarding career.

 

1. Social Worker

 

The goal of a social worker is to assist those within a community who are the most vulnerable. You might wish to work with children, teenagers, or adults as a social worker. You will need to have excellent communication skills and the desire to help those in difficult or dangerous situations to come to a better place in life.

 

While a graduate degree in social work might be required for advanced positions, you can certainly start a rewarding career in this role after earning an undergraduate degree. Of all the Human Services Degree careers available to you, this is one of the best ways in which you can give back to a community directly.

 

2. Substance Abuse Counselor

 

With the issue of substance abuse continuing to be prevalent in the United States today, there is now more than ever a need for qualified and skilled substance abuse counselors. These are individuals who work with people who are suffering from the physical and mental repercussions of substance abuse.

 

The fact of the matter is that many people are unable to break away from addiction on their own, and far too many people have no one to turn to in their lives for help. A substance abuse counselor can fill that role and offer the necessary support and resources that are needed in order to recover from substance abuse. This is an incredibly challenging, yet rewarding role, that can greatly assist a community at large.

 

3. Community Outreach Manager

Picture Credit 

There are many cases where an individual might not have the ability to look for help or even know where to turn if they did. This is where a community outreach manager can help. This is a role that is designed to bring resources directly into a community and make them readily available for those who might be in need of help.

 

This is a position that requires one to wear a variety of hats. You will need to have excellent communication skills and a solid knowledge base about the various resources that are available to people within the community you serve. You will need to be able to bring those resources directly to those in need and help them to get connected with the relevant services.

Make the Holidays a Hit With Tomy Toys

tabbyspantry

We got these awesome Tomy Toys free in exchange for an honest review.  All opinions are our own.

 

Tomy Toys have always been a huge hit with little guy. They have a wide range of toys from Nintendo to Ricky Zoom they have something for everyone in the family.

I love the Tomy toys has not only the most awesome retro toys they also have a ton of new toys too.  When we got to see them at NYTF I went complete nuts with all the awesome toys.  Now I get to play with a few of them every day.

The Nintendo Donkey King Barrel and the Shy Guy are so cute and cuddly.  They are also a blast to play with.  Of course the Barrel had to destroy everything in its way for many days.  To this day i have to watch walking in a room a Donkey King Barrel might come flying at me lol.

The Ricky Zoom is fun to play with and can stand up to a little guy playing.  He is not gentle with toys and Ricky Zoom is very well made. Zoom into adventure with Ricky Zoom! This zoomtastic motorcycle toy is ready to rev up imaginative play.

The Snap Dragon game was fun for everyone to play.  The whole family can play and little guy wants to hord the coins. lol  He loves when tis dragon snaps us and would laugh forever. TOMY’s Snap Dragon is the tongue pulling, coin grabbing, teeth snapping game! Full of surprises, this kids’ game is great for family game nights and exciting fun for ages 4 and up.

Make Learning Fun With National Geographic

tabbyspantry

We got these awesome National Geographic toys free in exchange for an honest review.  Al opinions are our own.

 

We are still doing the at home learning for know.  We are doing it a little different because online all day does not work for our little guy.  I sill want him learning, but I also want him to have some fun.  The National Geographic Stem toys are perfect for a fun day of learning.

The Light Up Sky Rocket is great for a little physics lesson.  This was also easy for my little guy to use.  Just stomp on the base and watch it go.  Of course there is a little more to that, but little guy likes to learn step by step.  I love that we can use this over and over again and we can learn a little something new every time with the rocket learning guide that comes with it.

The Glow In The Dark Marble Run was also a blast for little guy.  Best part this comes is 3 different sizes so no matter what level your little builder is they have the perfect set for you.  I love that you can also buy another set of the marbles.  I know that my son is going to keep them all and I can have a few to play with again next time we play.

Don’t forget to check out all the deals they are having on Amazon prime Day 🙂
