I was sent a Purple Simple cushion for this post. All opinions are my own. I love practical gifts. For met here is something really special about getting a gift that you use regularly and that you really enjoy using in your daily life. It can be a sweet reminder of whoever you got the gift from, each time that item is used.

Thank you to Primal Life Organics for providing me with product. As always, all opinions are my own. We've been making the switch to natural and organic products in our house, but I'm ashamed to say that I'd still been using conventional toothpaste up until recently. I was doing some research on toothpaste and found the brand I was using was full of chemicals. I can't say I was very surprised but it did make me very conscious that I needed to make a change. Primal Life Organics carries organic, Read more [...]

Thank you to Skullduggery for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. When I was asked to review the Max Flex RC 300 Combo Edition, I jumped at the opportunity. I have two daughters. It is often assumed that girls don't like playing with RC cars or racetracks. That stereotype simply isn't true. My tween daughters love playing with RC cars. I knew the Max Flex would be a hit with them as well as my visiting nieces and nephews. The Max Flex Read more [...]

I partnered with Sandra's on this sponsored post. All opinions are my own. We recently stopped at Kroger in Lansing. We don't have a Kroger in our town but Lansing isn't that far. Still, we don't think to stop in there very often but I wish we did. They supply some products that aren't in other stores in our area. One brand that is only available at Kroger in my area is Sandra's. Sandra's chicken has made stuffed chicken breast entrees for a while. Recently they came out with flavored chicken Read more [...]

I partnered with Best Buy on this sponsored post. All opinions are my own. A few days ago I was in the living room while cooking something in the oven. Suddenly I heard this bizarre fizzing sound coming from the kitchen and a glow. I ran out there. Our heating element inside of our oven broke and caught on fire! We had to turn the circuit breaker off before the fire would go out. The stove came with the house we are renting so I am not sure how old it is, but I know it looks a lot newer than stoves Read more [...]

I was sent a SUNMERIT weighted blanket for review. All opinions are my own. There are affiliate links in this post. I remember first hearing of weighted blankets when I was in college studying early childhood development. They were discussed as a sensory tool, sometimes used for kids with sensory processing disorder and/or autism. Since then I've seen people discussing them more and more often. It feels like they have become more mainstream. Instead of being exclusively discussed as a SPD or Read more [...]
