Seventh Generation Diapers now have Lorax Prints GiveawayClosed

- brandy3 224 Comments

In celebration of The Lorax Also Known as the speaker of the trees who brings enviromental truth and ecological hope to all. Seventh Generation will feature limited edition Lorax prints on all their diapers and training pants, to remind parents of the lessons of the Lorax and to encourage families to read.

New seventh generation diapers have a new design and strong core.

  • New Overnight Diapers are absorbent enough to keep your baby and bedding dry through the night or during prolonged travel
  • Free & Clear diapers have improved more flexible tabs that provide even better fit
  • Free & Clear training pants have an absorbent core made with more renewable, plant-based materials.  They also feature stretchy, tear away side panels for a better fit and added convenience, as well as inner leak barriers for superior leakage protection
  • Seventh Generation Free & Clear baby care products do not contain chlorine, fragrance, petroleum-based lotions or latex, and all Free & Clear products are also hypo-allergenic

When you purchase 3 Free and Clear Seventh Generation products you can register for a free Lorax scrapbook. While supplies last.

**These diapers are great, not only do they help save the environment, but protect against leakage too. They seemed to be a smaller fit to the regular diapers I am use to buying but still worked great.

I have a package of Seventh Generation diapers/pants, plus a Lorax book to give away to a lucky US reader.

To enter: Tell me if you are going to see the Lorax?

Shake It Up Dance Wear

- brandy3

ivivva athletica has launched a new line of dance wear for girls. Shake It Up Line is based on the Disney Shows character CeCe Jones and Rocky Blue.

The line is cute, fun and fashionable with pants, shorts, tanks,tops, skirts and so much more.  they even have arm warmers and headbands.

***I received two different outfits for my daughters to try on, and the first word out of Alexandra’s mouth was “This is so comfortable.”    McKenzie my other daughter also loved the outfit, she never wanted to take it of. The dance wear we received were tanks and stretchable pants. They even look great as just a regular outfit for the day. Both outfits have a hidden waistband pocket to hold your keys or money. The clothes are designed to move with you and not stick on you.

The top of this outfit has a built-in liner for extra coverage and the pants are very stretchable.

This outfit has a stretchable top and pants with matching heart designs.

We love both outfits!

Native Trails Pure Talavera Tiles Coaster Set

- brandy3

Handmade by artisans, Native Trials’ Pure Talavera is the gift that gives back.  The ceramic tiles are handmade and used traditional methods. Beautiful and colorful they are 4″ square tiles sold in sets of 4.

****We have a dining table and coffee table that are dark wood and stain very easily. Every drink and hot food leaves marks on my tables, so we have been looking of coasters. All the coasters I have found in stores have been cheap and break or fall apart very easily. The Pure Talavera are so beautiful and are perfect. We have been using these coasters non stop for our drinks and food.

 

Native Trails Pure Talavera are very thick and are great for holding and kind of cups. I even received a bigger size of coaster, which I absolutely love because now I can put my pots on the table without having to worry about it leaving rings. You do have to be careful with these because they are ceramic, but other than that I have nothing bad to say. I love these!

Retail: 2 6″ coasters #39.00, 4 4″ coasters $49.00 at Native Trails

View research studies, publications and abstracts at http://www.stopbleedingnaturally.com/clinicalstudies.php 

**** I’ll admit it, I don’t have the best teeth. I’ve actually been told that my teeth age faster than I do. So I am always on the lookout for products that really help my teeth.  I absolutely love Natural Dentist mouth rinse. Usually mouth wash is to harsh on my mouth and I can’t rinse for more than 10 seconds, With Natural Dentist I can rinse a full 30 seconds. It is not hash on the mouth and had a great after taste. I tried the Peppermint Twist.

I have one bottle of Natural Dentist Mouth Wash to giveaway to a lucky US reader

To enter: Tell me what flavor you would like better Peppermint Twist or Orange Zest?

Victoria Justice and Valentines All In One = The Best Time

- brandy3

Where can you get Victoria Justice and Valentines Cats and Dogs? Build A Bear Workshop of course! This past week Build A Bear Workshop introduced the New Victoria Justice Bear to their furry friends.

Since Valentines day is coming up they are introducing some new Valentines friends. My favorites are the Kisses For You Friends.

I received a gift card to buy the Victoria Justice bear and of course couldn’t pass up getting the Kisses For You Friends.

The Victoria Justice bear is a light-colored bear with stars on her ears and feet. She has beautiful purple eyes and nose. She also comes with a cute little charm bracelet that says XOXO. We matched her up with a Victoria Justice outfit that has Victoria’s face on the shirt. My daughter really loves this bear and al most has all the Disney/Nickelodeon bears from Build A Bear Workshop. We are only Missing Wizards Of Waverly Place Bear now, Unfortunately I think it is retired.

 

Kisses for you friends are oh so cute. They both have hearts on their eyes and can hold hands which I love. My kids have been treating them like their babies, saying blow me kisses, then making them do it. They each have magnets in their paws as well as by their mouth, so they can hold hands or blow kisses to each other. They can also kiss each other when you match up their magnets on their mouths.

Retail: Victoria Justice bear $23.00,

Valentines Day Gifts For Her Bormioli Rocco Plates and Bowls

- brandy3 1 Comment

The fine tradition of the Bormioli Rocco Group coincides with the very history of glass: the first glassworks was established in Parma in 1825. The company has always demonstrated a great drive to pioneer innovation: in machinery, materials and design. Over the years it has developed a special talent, that of combining time-honoured craftsmanship and the passion of master glassmakers with modern industrial processes. Bormioli Rocco is the leading company in its sector in Italy and a great ambassador of the Made in Italy label on international markets. Respect for tradition, passion for good taste and constant research and innovation are Bormioli Rocco’s milestones to create products that meet the needs of the consumers.

***Bermiolo Rocco plates and bowls are so beautiful. When I received these, my first thought was I don’t even want to use these for dinner. They are just to nice. I did notice that these are very fragile and can break so easily. The plate was very thin and just putting my fork on it left a small scratch. The bowl is sturdier and is the perfect size for portion control.

 

Retail: Plates are $77.57 for a set of 12 and bowls are $53.45 for a set of 12.

Hormel food Products

- brandy3 1 Comment

Hormel foods has so many different products under their brand, you’ll always find something yummy to eat. From chili, meat, side dishes and so much more.

As a Hormel Blogger, I was sent a variety of food to try out and my family loved all of it.

I received Hormel Chili with No beans, Chili with cheese double pack, fully cooked bacon, Turkey pepperoni, La Victoria Salsa, Chi Chi Salsa mini packs, canned chicken and more.

My husband was really excited about the bacon, since it’s already cooked he didn’t have to do so much work. It still tasted like bacon you have to cook. The Turkey pepperoni, we are not fond of but still getting use to. We don’t eat a lot of Turkey.  My favorite was the Chili and Cheese mixture. It tasted just like a restaurants chili and cheese, it’s so good.

You can Find Hormel food products at all grocer retailers nationwide.

Disclosure: I’ve partnered with Hormel Foods as part of the Hormel Foods Extended Family Blogger Program. Throughout the year I’ll be receiving product, coupons, giveaways and promotions. However, no payment was given or expected for posting about the program, and as always, all opinions given here are fully my own. 

Kidz Bop 21 Review

- brandy3

Kidz Bop is a cd collection for kids ages 5-12.

There are some great songs on Kidz Bop 21:

  • Party Rock Anthem
  • Moves Like Jagger
  • The Edge Of Glory
  • You Make Me Feel
  • Good Life
  • Stereo Love
  • Without You
  • Fly
  • Hello
  • We Found love
  • It Will Rain
  • The One That Got Away
  • Good Feeling
  • Mr. Saxobeat
  • It Girl
  • Someone Like You

****This is our first Kidz Bop CD, my kids just love the commercials though. These are kids singing the snags and the lyrics have been changed to be kid friendly of course.   I was a little disappointed that one of my favorite songs “Part Rock Anthem” was just the chorus of the song over and over. It may be better that way though as there are some lyrics that are not kid friendly. My kids though, loved it and have been dancing around to it for hours.

You can buy Kidz Bop 21 online for $13.98

Udi’s Gluten Free Foods

- brandy3 2 Comments

Udi’s Gluten Free Foods, is the #1 gluten-free baked good brands, revolutionized the category when it introduced the first gluten-free bread that tastes and looks like real bread.

*** We received an insiders VIP kit from Udi’s to try out. Since I have two members of my family with Milk allergies these were great to try out. Most gluten Free products are also dairy free.

We were so excited to receive these, especially my husband. Who has a dairy allergy. His favorite product we received Blueberry muffins. We have not been able to find dairy free muffins anywhere, so he was in heaven eating them.    We also received shortbread cookies, which my kids loved. The cookies were not dairy free though, but were still good.

The other items we received were Udi’s cinnamon raisin bagels, pizza crust, and whole wheat bread.   The cinnamon raisin bagels were really good, while the bread was just okay. My kids didn’t seem to like it, but hubby and I thought it was okay. The pizza crust was great, we have always made french bread pizza since we can’t find dairy free crusts. This was very good.

Photobucket

After trying these the first thing my husband asked was “Where can I but these at?”  Luckily they are on sale at a Stop and Shop near us.  Udi’s is available at most Wal-mart locations,but  to find out where to find Udi’s in your area please check here.
