Disney Junior’s Jake’s Birthday Bash and Pirate’s Booty!
that always seems to be on in our living room happens to
be Jake and The Neverland Pirates. I must
admit, I am not against the whole pirate thing. Since I was
a Boymom for many years before Emily came into the picture,
I have always loved a good reason
to sword fight! Arrrrg!
When we heard that Jake would be celebrating a birthday
we could not resist throwing our own Jake’s Birthday Bash!
We geared up by sending Jake a live birthday greeting and checking
out all the great party suggestions on DisneyJr.
I was thrilled when a package arrived from Pirates Booty with
themed Jake Pirate’s Booty snacks for our party goers along with
eye patches, swords, tattoos, and an official Jake and the Neverland
Pirates’ Treasure Chest. It was the hit of the party and the little pirates
could not help but squeal with excitement at they sponge sword fought
each other for hours. Everyone had their chance to reach in and grab out
some Pirate’s Booty from the Treasure Chest and then it was time to
watch the show.Our night was filled with Place the tail on the Croc,
skull and coin cookie decorating, a big birthday song for Jake and some
awesome belly laughs. All of our little pirates left the party with
Pirate’s Booty in their hands and smiles on their faces!
What an awesome night. If you missed out on the official party
date of March 1st, you can always host your own party any time.

Let’s Chat With Nuclear Cowboyz Javier Villegas
Diane: How old were you when you started having an interest in motocross?
Javier: I was probably five years old when I started liking motocross, but at that moment my family didn’t have money to buy me a dirt bike. It took my dad two years to save enough money to buy me a motorcycle.
Diane: When did you realize that motocross was something you wanted to do as a career?
Javier: When I was 17 years old I was finishing school and I still didn’t know what I wanted to study in college, but I did know that I love riding my dirt bike. When I was 17, I was still living in my country (Chile) and down there, is almost impossible to make a career as an athlete. It took a lot of effort and a lot of training to make it happen, but I don’t regret it one moment.
Diane: What has been your most exciting moment so far?
Javier: My most exciting moment was when I became world champion in 2011, it was a long year and but the victory was a reward of so many years of hard work.
Diane: Scariest moment?
Javier: My scariest moment was when I broke my femora in 2007, it was my first time breaking a big bone and it was very painful, made me think if I really wanted to keep riding, but a few weeks later I was ready to start recovering and get back into my bike.
Diane: What is your next goal?
Javier: My next goal is to become the best freestyle rider in the world, I know it is a hard goal, because there is so many good riders out there, but I’m going to work hard to achieve it.
Diane: I believe Nuclear Cowboyz is new to you. What are your thoughts on it so far?
Javier: Nuclear Cowboyz is a very fun show and I enjoy all of the riding I get to do, especially when I’m doing it with my friends, we get to jump at the same time and do tricks at the same time, it’s very cool to look over and see the tricks mid air while I’m alongside the other riders. It’s also neat to be part of such a big production that includes more than freestyle… We have fireballs, fireworks a neat laser show, acrobats, dancers and much more! It’s a show everybody has to experience.
Diane: How does your wife feel about your career? Would you like your own children to be involved in FMX?
Javier: My wife is very supportive, she’s always helping me make this easier, she wakes up very early every morning to go practice with me, and she’s always there to take care of me if something happens. About my kids, I just want them to find something that makes them happy, if it’s freestyle, great, if it’s something else, great too. The only goal in life is to be happy.

Giveaway: Eight O’Clock Coffee and Food Pairings Chat!
Oatmeal is a classic way to start the day – simple, filling and hearty. Topped with some fresh fruit and almonds or walnuts and honey, its flavor goes from bland to grand. This mild-flavored breakfast food goes well with a lightly roasted coffee like Eight O’Clock Coffee’s French Vanilla or Hazelnut. Eight O’Clock Coffee Roaster Brewing Tip: Mix half a serving of Ground Hazelnut and Ground French Vanilla to deliver a Sweet and Nutty flavor.
Sweet breakfasts cooked on the griddle, like pancakes, waffles and French toast, are usually topped with syrups, jams or whipped cream. To offset all that sweetness, go with the bold flavor of an espresso or dark-roasted coffee. Eight O’Clock’s Dark Italian Roast hits the mark and is perfect for espresso aficionados. Eight O’Clock Coffee Roaster Brewing Tip: Add a dollop of Whipped Cream in place of Milk or Cream and savor the European experience.
The traditional American-style breakfast of Eggs, Bacon, Sausage, or a hearty Ham steak is a match for Eight O’Clock Coffee’s Original Roast. Whether you like your eggs fried, scrambled or sunny side up, this medium roast coffee is an ideal choice to balance the savory flavor of egg dishes. Eight O’Clock Coffee Roaster Brewing Tip: Set aside a ½ cup of coffee to create a toast mopping red eye gravy to garnish the Ham Steak. Full recipe provided (Foodnetwork.com).
Quick grab-and-go breakfasts, including breads, muffins and bagels, pair well with all Eight O’Clock coffee varieties. Try a variety which appeals to your taste today!
