I have tried several different brands of drink ware and sports bottles. I need containers that make it easy for me to take my water where ever I go. I have a few specific criteria that must be met for me to consider trying a new brand: the container MUST be BPA free, dishwasher safe, and impact resistant. All of my criteria were met with Bubba Brands Inc. Bubba Brands Inc. specializes in a wide variety of drink ware. They offer mugs, bottles, tumblers, sport bottles, sport jugs and kids sport Read more [...]

It seems like everywhere you go and everything you do now has a GREEN option to it. I think it’s wonderful. My family certainly isn’t the most Eco-friendly family in America but, we are taking steps toward improving. Recently the town we grocery shop in, passed a plastic bag ban. This was the perfect kick I needed to switch from paper bags to reusable shopping bags. When Our Green Home contacted me to review their reusable shopping bags, I was excited. For my review, I received the Rad Plaid- Read more [...]

This last week was interesting and full of surprises. I traveled with my family across the country. I had packed several Nutrisystem meals in my luggage so that I would have a healthy meal to eat when we were in our hotel. I also took my Nutrisystem dining out guide to help me make good choices when we were at restaurants. That plan was all fine and dandy except, I hadn’t expected my stress levels to skyrocket. My nerves took over big time. As we boarded the plane to leave, I had an anxiety Read more [...]

It hasn’t quite been a week since my last Nutrisystem update. I am posting this one early because I will be traveling the rest of the week.  I am excited to see my Husband’s extended family again. I have actually only seen his East Coast family one other time and that was over 6 years ago.  At that time, I was overweight and five months pregnant. Although I don’t remember what my exact weight was, I believe there is at least 50 pounds less of me today. Although it’s always hard for Read more [...]

About a year ago, I made a commitment to switching form conventional cosmetics to product lines that use natural ingredients. I will admit, I have had to work a little harder to find cosmetics that meet this requirement but it is really worth it for me. I recently discovered a product line called ZuZu Luxe from Gabriel Cosmetics Inc. ZuZu Luxe offers luxury cosmetics made with natural ingredients. They are Gluten Free and Vegan-friendly. They are suitable for all skin types. For my review, Read more [...]

I love discovering delicious healthy snacks so you can imagine how excited I was when I found Bumble Bars. Bumble Bars are free of gluten, wheat, and dairy. They are also certified organic.

This week, I received my Nutrisystem “40” Nutribear. Each Nutribear signifies another milestone reached. It’s one of the many ways Nutrisystem encourages and celebrates with it members. Over the last 30 weeks, I have come to LOVE these little guys. The 40 bear is actually named Determination Bear. Webster states that determination is a“firm or fixed intention to achieve a desired end.” When I started Nutrisystem 30 weeks ago, I was determined to trade my unhealthy habits for Read more [...]

Wonder Forge launched its product line in 2007 after several like-minded individuals banded together and decided they wanted to offer games to kids of all ages.   These aren’t just FUN games; they are games that teach children to think independently as well as part of a team. They encourage children to take a leap of faith and venture out of their comfort zone. They also provide an opportunity for multiple generations to have some valuable bonding time. I love watching children learn when Read more [...]
