Explora Sippy Cups

About
(content received from Tommee Tippee)
Spilling is not a problem with the Tommee Tippee Explora sippy cup. The Explora products feature advance-flo valves, designed by a physicist to require almost no force to drink from, while still remaining truly spill and leak proof.  Each Explora cup is progressively staged with a specific grip to fit little fingers and unique spouts.  The complete range of Explora products includes sippy cups, straw cups, water bottles, drinking cups, independent meal sets, weaning bowls, food pots and utensils for children aged 6 months and
beyond.
--------------------------------------
I received the Explora truly spill proof water bottle to test out, I had actually asked for the explora truly spill proof straw cup but I guess somehow it got mixed up, but it's alright, so my son is 4 & he loves drinking out of sippy cups big boy ones that is. I have not had any troubles with spilling or leaking so far because normally he would leave a little bit in his cup & it would be sideways on the couch or on the ground & I didn't see any leaks or spills, thank god!!!! As I was putting chocolate milk in it & shaking it towards the sink some of it would splash out, so I'm not so sure but my son wouldn't have that much power like me to do something like that.

Foldin' Money

One question that is often asked is “How did the Foldin’ Money story unfold?”
The craft of moneygami, or origami using real money instead of paper, was handed down from mother to daughter. It was a gift that was given to family and friends for birthdays where the design’s monetary value equaled the age of the recipient. Sue was inspired to add decorations to give each design even a more unique and personal quality.
Sue is a survivor of two strokes that left her virtually unemployable because her speech was dramatically damaged as a direct result of those strokes. At one time only her sister, Caren, could understand what Sue was trying to communicate. To read more click here

---------------------------------


 Foldin' Money is a great idea for birthday cards, or just everyday fun created with money who doesn't love that.. I know I do & so would a lot of other people. Anyways I didn't get the chance to review this lovely tree design because my son got a hold of it & destroyed it probably thinkingt it was something of his.


So my friend had this same exact design kit similar to the tree design kit so we decided to put it together & you'll need tape & scissors & time to put it all together & it took us about 20 minutes to do everything with reading directions & cutting out the paper stuff & actually taping it all together which to me sounds it was kinda easy to be honest but I don't think this is something I would buy literally!!!

Available design kits include:
Money Cake
Money Heart
Money House
Money Shirt
Money Star
Money Tie
Money Tree

Mooney Farms was gracious enough to send me some of their product line to review.  I received:   Sun dried Tomatoes with Italian herbs, Sun dried Tomatoes halves with Italian herbs; Sun dried Tomatoes with whole pine nuts, Sun dried Tomatoes with extra virgin olive oil.Sun dried tomatoes with zesty peppers (can't wait to use this one) Sun dried tomatoes with Italian basil.

Asher's Chocolates


What Is Asher's?

Chester Asher was a Scottish farm boy from Ontario, Canada who had a mind for business and a passion for confections. He worked for a candy factory briefly before wanting to branch on his own. In 1892, he founded the Asher's candy making business in Philadelphia. In the early years, his staff made maple syrup, jams and jellies and did some canning. The store even including baked items and ice cream, but shared one commitment to quality and taste. The original recipes, many of which are still used today, were written by Chester himself on the backs of sugar bags.
Asher's is the oldest continuously family owned and operated candy making business in the US and is currently under the direction of the fourth generation. Asher's success is due to the family's reputation for making quality candy with the freshest and purest ingredients available.

Asher's Chocolates is a company that has been making chocolates and other confections for over 100 years. Asher's sells high quality, classic chocolates online that make for great gifts. They even sell a variety of gift baskets, which makes it simple to give the perfect gift to your favorite chocoholics. If you are just looking for a small treat for yourself or your family, Asher's also sells individually wrapped chocolate smothered pretzels, chocolate sandwich cookies, and chocolate graham crackers. This is great for portion control and also for when you are traveling.
----------------------------------------


Asher’s Chocolates generously sent me 18pc. Milk Chocolate Smothered Pretzels Caddy, 1lb. Peanut Butter Smoothies, 1lb. Vanilla Caramels & last but not least 1lb. Milk Chocolate Pretzel Clusters for a review. I am a big chocolate fan! I just love it. Actually my favorite type of chocolate would probably be Chocolate Covered Pretzels the main ingredient that I always look for in chocolate is "cocoa butter" without that the chocolate isn't worth trying in my books. I was so excited to try some of Asher's Chocolates & was really really happy to do a review. Asher's truly has a wide variety of chocolates and chocolate covered goodies. I was also very happy to choose what I wanted to review from there site. I even gave some to my mom, but she didn't get to have the chocolate covered pretzels because the kids probably ate them before she could get any, LOL meaning my brother & sisters. I even gave some to my friends who were staying over they really loved it as well, & my husband of course had a few he isn't much of a chocolate person, I don't know why, but he's nuts. LOL.....


How Do Asher's Chocolates Taste?

I tried the Milk Chocolate Smothered Pretzels, which were so yummy I couldn't stop eating them my son even enjoyed some as well. These award-winning pretzels were fairly large and had a nice crunch to them. The salty pretzel was the perfect contrast to the sweet and perfectly creamy chocolate. The box came 18 individual wrap pretzels to share with the whole family. However, the box did not last very long because the pretzels were addicting and everyone kept going back for more.


Milk Chocolate Pretzel Clusters

These were amazingly good to it had just enough chocolate, but I thought it had a lot of pretzels clusters in it maybe if it was less pretzels than I think it would of been really good but overall they were delicious & very good.


Peanut Butter Smoothies

These peanut butter smoothies were to DIE for I absolutely love peanut butter & I thought these were the best out of everything I got minus the chocolate covered pretzels of course, but these were so creamy & every bite I just fell in love & I couldn't help but eat another after another with how it tasted :)


Vanilla Caramels

These chewy caramels were very delicious as well. I always love caramel stuff & this was really chewy & yummy. My son loved these as well. I could put one in my entire mouth & just taste all the caramel; perfection!!!!!

Baby Walton

Baby Walton was founded by Victoria McGee Walton, a stay-at-home mom who invented and developed the Infant Hair Protector after both of her babies experienced infant baldness. Walton searched for a solution to prevent baby baldness when her first baby developed an unsightly bald spot on the back of her head, but no products were available on the market. Walton consulted her pediatrician, family and friends and realized that infant baldness is a common problem for nearly all babies. After her second baby developed a similar bald spot, she realized she had to create a solution herself, and the Infant Hair Protector was born. Within 30 days her baby's hair was restored. Now the Infant Hair Protector satin headrest is available to parents everywhere.  I just love the way moms turn around into finding solutions to their problems when they can’t find the right answer to their issues and make them in to a profitable business that will help her and other moms as well.
 
           Large Protector                                
   Crib, Bassinet and Bouncer 

When my son was a baby, he had a bald spot in the back of his head as I remember it's been like 4yrs now, but I remember when he would always take naps & sleep otherwise that he would have this one bald spot sometimes "lol" & even when he was sweaty during the summer-time he would get bald spots to & my son didn't really have a whole lot of hair to begin with but with the little hair that he had you could still tell. People told me that it is quite normal for that to happen: During the early stages of life, infants spend a considerable amount of time sleeping. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends placing infants on their back to minimize the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Unfortunately, this practice frequently causes a bald spot to appear on the back of an infant's head, especially if an infant's hair and scalp are dry. The friction of the infant's head against cotton sheets causes the infant's hair to break and the back of the head to become bald. The condition is further aggravated by the constant movement of an infant's head in a car seat, bouncer, stroller, swing, carrier, bassinet and the like. So it is normal but still not pretty!  

      Small Protector      
Car Seat, Carrier, Swing and Stroller  
                                        
I have recently found about Baby Walton (wish I knew about them back then).
Infant baldness can be prevented by reducing the amount of friction caused by the many surfaces your baby comes in contact with while lying down. You can help your baby's hair grow back naturally while she/he sleeps with the Infant Hair Protector. The Infant Hair Protector can be secured to cribs, bouncers, swings, car seats, carriers, strollers and bassinets to provide a soft, smooth surface for your baby's head to rest. The 100% satin surface prevents balding, breakage and shedding of your infant's hair. If your baby is already experiencing infant baldness, the Infant Hair Protector will help your baby's hair to re-grow, while preventing further balding.


Features
 Machine washable satin 
Prevents the unsightly bald spot on the back of your baby's head Regrows your baby's hair, while preventing further balding 
Made of 100% soft satin to minimize infant balding 
Helps maintain the moisture in your baby's hair and scalp  
Kit includes a large (15 in. x 29 in.) and small (8 in. x 8 in.) Infant Hair protector Ties safely to infant cribs, bouncers, swings, car seats, carriers, strollers and bassinets

Batter Blaster


Introducing 3 new flavors of Batter Blaster-- Buttermilk, Organic Whole Wheat with Brown Sugar & Cinnamon and Double Chocolate. Adding variety to your pancakes and waffles, these new flavors are convenient, healthy and delicious! Of course there’s always the Organic Original Batter Blaster with the same great taste!

Batter Blaster brings you the only fresh, ready-to-cook pancake and waffle batter in a pressurized can. Its unique, 
patent-pending process allows 
Batter Blaster to make fresh, 
healthy, delicious pancakes 
in minutes.


I've always been a pancake/waffle person from IHOP that is they make the best breakfast!

anyways. . . . 

I was given a letter in the mail to try this product of Batter Blaster & I thought it was pretty neat. It seems a lot easier to make than it does in a box, but is that really true?  So I was given a few coupons for a Free Batter Blaster can of choice. I used 2 for me the rest we will talk about later. 
I decided to go safe and stick with the original flavor! It is USDA-certified organic and Kosher-certified. Batter Blaster is light, fluffy and also tastes magnificent! Batter Blaster is perishable, so don't forget to check the expiration date! When I tried out this pancake batter, I was really nervous if I was going to have positive things to say about it. Within the first few bites, my taste buds encountered something it has not had in quite some time. Delicious, mouthwatering pancakes! It also took me some time to look for it in the grocery stores I would always look near the eggs & I could never find it & than one of the employees also said that they never heard of it, weird! I know!
 
Suggested Toppings: Blueberries, *strawberries, *bananas, chocolate chips, white chocolate chips. . .

I was sent a coupon for 1 product of French Meadow Bakery for up to $9.99 and a few additional $1 off coupons. French Meadow Bakery uses all natural ingredients and avoids using GMO's (genetically modified organisms). 
When I buy bread I always buy Wheat because wheat is so much better for you than white bread is & I just like to keep my family healthy on what foods they eat. So I chose the "All Natural Pumpernickel Rye Bread" why I picked out that kind of bread because I always like to make this dip that my mother makes from time to time & it's called Knorr's Spinach Dip here is the recipe below:


Makes 4 cups dip
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Chill Time: 2 Hours

Ingredients:

1 package (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, cooked, cooled & squeezed dry
1 container (16 oz) sour cream
1 cup Hellmann's or Best foods Real Mayonnaise
1 package Knorr's Vegetable recipe mix
1 can (8 oz) water chestnuts, drained & chopped (optional)
3 green onions, chopped (optional)

Preparation 

Everyone loves dip! Here's How You Make It
Combine all ingredients & chill about 2 hours. Serve with your favorite dippers to your favorite people. Enjoy :)

 ---------------------------------------------------------

The other kind of bread I picked out was Gluten-Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread. This bread had a great texture and had plenty of raisins in it. The cinnamon taste was perfect –not overwhelming at all. I loved enjoying this bread with a schmear of cream cheese for an afternoon snack or you could even put the toast in the oven for like a couple of minutes & spread some honey & peanut butter on it that would be so yummy also.
