• Boogers! Phlegm and Mucus! And A Sneeve

    The cold from HELL has been around in our family for months now. We keep giving back and forth! I’m really ready to pass it along to another family already…. any takers??  One really cool and unique thing I have to help us get rid of this cold is the Sneeve. I have to tell you, Alice was so funny when I told her we were going to review the Sneeve. She turned to me and said “What the heck is a Sneeve?” So I explained it’s a sleeve that goes over your arm, over your sleeve and collects gross things like germs and she immediately said “oh like boogers”  Yup, like boogers. The Centers for Disease Control recommends coughing and sneezing into the upper sleeve to help stop germs from spreading. Given that kids in the U.S. average about 10 colds a year, that’s a lot of coughing and sneezing into a whole lot of sleeves.So I snapped some pictures of Alice with her Sneeve on then we did our video review. All is well; the review is going great; I mean hello, why wouldn’t it? Cute kid, ingenious product. Each Sneeve fits well; and are comfortable to wear per 4-year-old Alice. The Sneeve fits at…

  • UPmall Glazed Glass Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace

    Essential oil diffuser

    I am a huge aromatherapy fan. Aromatherapy not only treats your mind but your body and spirit as well. Aromatherapy can reduce pain, help you sleep better, calm you down, give you energy and raise your mood. I have a beautiful way to carry those scents with you!! This review is for the UPmall Glazed Glass Essential Oil Diffuser Necklace For Aromatherapy. This Grass Green diffuser hangs on a silk cord that you can adjust from 20″ to 27″. Seriously, what a beautiful way to bring your favorite Aromatherapy scents with you! The pendant itself is glass that has been imported from Italy. The beads used with this necklace, also imported from Italy. The glass pendant and beads are absolutely stunning. Eye catching to say the least. The soft grass-green color with gold accents surrounds the silver ‘well’ that holds the scents. The over all look is so unique! The top has beads at both ends of the cork. A large green glass bead with a gold bead dangle on top of the very small cork. The bottom of the cork is a silver mirrored, flat bead. I’m so amazed that even the cork is expertly crafted to be beautiful!…

  • Santoku Knife 7 Inch by Zelite Infinity

    Knife

    I’m not a chef. I’m a meat and taters cook. I’ve already shared with you that I THINK I can handle a knife like Gena Davis in Long Kiss Good Night; I can NOT! Each time I try I might as well go grab a band-aide cause I AM going to cut myself!   Now with that said; Zelite knives make me feel like I am a professional chef. We are slowly replacing all of our knives with Zelite Infinity Knives. These are truly amazing quality Chef’s knifes!! Whether you can handle a knife like Rachael Ray or Gena Davis or just a meat and taters cook like myself these knives will make food preparation FAST and with ease!! The Santoku Knife has a 7″ blade. That’s a 7″ razor-sharp blade. Exactly what is a Santoku knife? I had to look it up myself; According to Wikipedia The Santoku knife is a Japanese general-purpose kitchen knife. The word refers to the three cutting tasks which the knife performs well: slicing, dicing, and mincing. (oh-oh that almost screams to me…. ya gotta try super fast mincing again! Get the band-aides ready!) This Santoku Knife is a very well-balanced knife.   The Zelite Santouku Knife uses imported Japanese Takefu…

  • Rudy’s New Human

    Rudy's New Human book

    Rudy’s New Human is a wonderful book written by Roxanna Elden and Illustrated by Ginger Seehafer. Rudy has a pretty sweet life. He gets all the attention, he gets all the lovin’, he gets all the cuddlin’, it’s safe to say Rudy is on top of the world. Until, that is a HUMAN child arrives. 4-year-old Alice loves this book for several reasons.  The story is super cute. Rudy the dog didn’t know what to expect with the new human, but, he didn’t expect his entire life to be turned upside down!! The new human get’s all the attention. The new human get’s all the lovin’ and cuddlin’. All in all Rudy is feeling neglected.  As the human grows Rudy begins to find his place in the family. Like I said, Alice loves this book but, being 4, her two absolute favorite parts have to do with poop. Seriously, what is it about farts and poop that make kids laugh hysterically??? So, I told Alice that she could share with you her favorite pages of Rudy’s New Human and of course she picked the poop part. Rudy’s New Human is a super sweet, funny story that would be an awesome way to introduce…
