In Sarah Jessica Parker’s New Flick “I Don’t How She Does It”, we see our favorite SJP do the balancing act of a woman’s hectic life. Sometimes we here at POP Bag wonder when busy women get time to eat. That is, until we found a great product! We all love good food and snacking is especially essential when you don’t have much time on your hands. A sweet surprise without the guilt (and without the calories – for you health masters).

Emmi, Swiss Premium Yogurt. Made from the best by the best, and we all know how delicious Swiss Cheese is, not ever to forget Swiss Chocolate. Well, Ladies and Gents – here is a Yogurt that’s going to have your taste buds in heaven and doing your  body good all at the same time.

Unlike any other, Emmi Swiss Premium Yogurt is an all-natural delight, with the creamy textures you’d expect from a fine line of Swiss products, and a bountiful of delicious flavors that will not spoil your taste buds – that you’d come to find from other refined-sugar yogurt products. It’s supple texture glides across your tongue leaving a smooth, creamy texture that satiates hunger and doesn’t leave you with a thick milky residue or aftertaste many other brands disguise.

It comes in a range of flavors: Apricot, Black Cherry, Blueberry, Coffee, Pink Grapefruit, Müesli, Plain, Raspberry, Strawberry & Vanilla Bean. That include live and active bacteria cultures made from rBST-free Milk (aka Hormone free milk), and are great for the on-the-go person, looking to feel good, look great and give the body some well-deserved nutrition. Oh, and keep the taste buds Happy!

Now, that’s my kind of eating!

I guess I know how she does it.

Happy Cooking!

Vblast Vitamin and Spring Water is not your ordinary vitamin water. Instead of adding vitamins to the drink in the process of making it, consumers are able to release the vitamins into the drink themselves.

“How do I do that?” you might ask. Well, they have a patented reservoir cap that holds the liquid vitamins separate from water sunlight until you, the consumer is ready to release it. This provides maximum effectiveness of the vitamins, as they tend to dilute if they are just sitting in the water. It comes in a cool, sport shaped bottle easily able to travel on the go. Going to the gym? This would be the perfect grab and go item. It also doesn’t hurt that this product is calorie free, carb free, sugar free, and caffeine free. What more can you ask for?

Be sure to check them out next week at our “Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part 2″ event at the Chelsea Clearview Cinema in Manhattan. They will be providing samples of all their flavors including: Green Tea, Citrus, Pomegranate Cherry, Strawberry Kiwi, Wildberry, Acai Berry, & Peach Tea. Which flavor will you receive in your POP Bag gift bag?

When people hear the word Liquorice, their response is usually “No Thank You” but that’s because they haven’t tried Darrell Lea Liquorice from Australia. A soft and flavorful treat, this is a product you do not want to miss out on. NY moviegoers, you have a chance to sample it this Friday, June 10th, at the Chelsea Clearview Cinemas beginning with the 7pm showing of “Super 8″ while supplies last!

Darrell Lea Liquorice is Australia’s number 1 Soft Eating Liquorice.  It is made from natural flavors and real liquorice root, hence the spelling of “liquorice” and not “licorice”. The way they cook their liquorice is what makes them different – they cook it to seal the moisture and add what they call a little “Aussie Magic”. 25,000 miles of the Soft Eating Liquorice is produced each year, as they say “enough to cross Australia ten times”.

For our “Super 8″ POP Bag event, they have provided samples of their mango and strawberry liquorice. Also, you will receive a coupon for a FREE full size bag of the liquorice. What more can you ask for?

For more information on Darrell Lea Liquorice, please follow them on twitter @DarrellLea_USA or visit their website at www.darrelllea.com. For more information on our POP Bag event for Super 8 - http://sch.mp/Eczwwrp

The GreenPan changed the world of non stick cookware and made my life a whole lot better.

My first concern is health.  With the GreenPan you don’t have to worry about your pan giving off any toxic fumes or gases. ..this is highly important to me! GreenPan accomplishes this with their durable and healthy non stick surface Thermolon.

In addition, using my GreenPan has made cooking easy. The handle is a perfect balance and food just slides right onto your plate without tearing or coming apart. Cleanup is a breeze. After using this pan every day, I still am amazed how easy it is to clean.

Someone is making me look good…I Love My GreenPan.

“Something Borrowed,” a best selling novel by author Emily Giffin will hit movie theaters this May.  If you have not heard of it, its about a young attorney named Rachel living in Manhattan has a one night stand with her best friend Darcy’s fiance and ends up having feelings for him.  Some best friend eh?

The movie will star Ginnifer Goodwin as Rachel, Kate Hudson as Darcy and John Krasinski as Ethan.  Tell me will you go and see it?   And will you take your best friend?  I suggest you do.  Might be the perfect lesson in “Not letting your best friend get drunk around your man.”

“Dressed” is a movie showcasing the story of Nary Manivong, a clothing designer pursuing his dream of showcasing his fashion line at New York Fashion Week.  Nary’s story is very inspiring because at the age of 14, he and his siblings were abandoned by their parents and left homeless.  He then moved to New York with only $200 in his pocket.    This film will show the many steps he takes to achieve his goal.  Ally Hilfiger, Tommy Hilfiger’s daughter, has joined with Nary to develop a clothing line called “Nahm” to be introduced later this year.  “Dressed” will play exclusively at the Chelsea Clearview Cinemas in Manhattan starting on February 4th.  Tickets can be purchased here: http://bit.ly/ehJtIk

Since I am getting married soon, I started thinking about movies surrounding weddings.  Ok you have the typical my daughter is getting married movie, “Father of the Bride.”  Father gets scared of daughter getting married and can’t accept the fact that she is growing up.  Then you have a movie like “Bride Wars” where two best friends are fighting over having their wedding at the Plaza Hotel when the planners assistant mixes up the dates.  Of course, the ending of both movies turns out lovely.  The weddings are always beautifully decorated and very sentimental.  It just makes me wonder, how will my wedding turn out?  Will I have the crazy parent trying to stop me?  Will my best friend and I plan a wedding at the same time?  Will my fiance go on and have a crazy bachelor party like in “The Hangover?”  Hmmm as much as we don’t like to compare our lives to movies, its a possibilty that any of those scenarios could happen.  Might I say it would make for a very interesting wedding day though.

Popcorners are brand new chips by Medora snacks and are known as “the new shape of popcorn.”  They are all natural and popped with real corn.  They come in an array of flavors ranging from butter to cheesy jalapeno.  Mmmm.  Ready to try them?  Check them out at our Harry Potter event this Friday, starting with the 3:30 pm showing, while supplies last.  For more information, please visit their website here.

Harry Potter, Harry Potter, Harry Potter.  What else can I say?  Part 1 of the cult film series will be in theaters November 19th.   I don’t get why they are putting us through the torture of having to watch the movie in 2 parts, making us excited to see Part 1 in November but keeping us in suspense until Part 2 is released in July of next year.  Who can wait to see what twist and turns and changes from the book the movie has in store?  I guess we will have to.  But until then, here’s the trailer for the first part of the movie. 

“The Social Network,” starring Justin Timberlake and Jesse Eisenberg proved many wrong over the weekend by taking the top spot with $23 million.  Many people thought this “Facebook Movie” would not do well in regards to the way Mark Zuckerberg felt about it but in actuality, the critically acclaimed movie took many by surprise. 

 While on Facebook over the weekend, many of my friends were sending updates during and after the movie exclaiming how good it was, even making reference to updating their Facebook status while watching the movie.  A must see movie?  I think so, especially if you would like to learn more about the social network platform that brings you in contact with many of your friends and for some, the place where they feed their Farmville and CafeWorld addictions.
