Hello friends,
If you recall, last year my GYN diagnosed me with being Vitamin D Deficient, so I started taking Vitamin D pills. If you are anything like me, you don’t like taking hard-to-swallow pills and may take softgels instead.
I had seen Gummy Vitamins on the shelves at our local drug stores but always felt they were a bit juvenile for a woman of my age!
Thanks to @Smiley360, I was able to receive ten sample packs to review. Included with the samples was a $2.00 off coupon and a Pedometer, which I wear at the office as a reminder to get up and walk, I definitely don’t want a “blogger’s butt”.
These Caltrate Gummy Bites are Calcium & Vitamin D3 Supplements which supports strong bones, another health concern for aging women. The Gummy Bites are not those stick-to-your-teeth bites which I though they would be, you know something similar to candy gummy worms.
They come in three flavors, Black Cherry, Orange and Strawberry and have now become part of my daily vitamin regiment.
Anyone over the age of 13 can take these supplements 2x per day with or without food but make sure to first check with your physician before taking any new medication or supplement.
Caltrate Gummy Bites can be purchased online @Amazon.com or at your local Walgreens, Walmart, Target or CVS. Click here to receive your $2.00 off coupon.
I received this product for free for the purpose of my review. Opinions are 100% my own. I am not a health care professional so please check with your physician before taking any over-the-counter products.

Hello Friends, I hope all is well in your world. Now that I am over the age of 50, I have started thinking more and more about the skin I’m in especially my face. We’ve all heard that too much sun exposure is bad for your skin – too late, from 1976 to 1979 I’d bake every summer at Rehoboth Beach and even now I enjoy laying in the summer sun but not as long. Drink more water – I wish I could drink the recommended 32 oz, or is that 64 ounces daily, heck I’m lucky if I drink 8 oz every 3 days, that is of course unless coffee and wine counts.
Get plenty of rest – who me, the person that doesn’t get into bed until after midnight and then tosses and turns because my mind won’t shut down? Don’t smoke – too late, although I am a quitter, 5 years clean, (yeah me) I did smoke for over 30 years. Now more than ever I have to pay closer attention to how I treat my skin to avoid any further damage.
I recently ordered a bottle of Foxbrim 100% Pure Argan Oil from Amazon.com and started using it as a moisturizer for my face. After removing my makeup and cleansing my face, I put 2-3 drops on the back of my hand then using my fingertips apply it to my face, eyelids and lips.
Foxbrim 100% Pure Argan Oil is unbelievably light, easily absorbs into my face leaving it feeling nourished. Now that I’ll be spending more time in the sun, this product will definitely be up front and center as part of my daily moisturizing and makeup routine.
Foxbrim 100% Pure Argan Oil can also be used a hair treatment and pre-shave oil, but I think I’ll let my mini men try it for those purposes then I’ll let you know what they think.
How do you love the skin you’re in?

Hello Friends, I have a question for you, what is your favorite night of the week? For me it is definitely Friday nights because after I get home and have dinner it’s time to sit back and relax and have some “pamper me” time.
Pedicures and facials are my all time favorite at home spa treatments and last week I had the opportunity to review the Dead Sea Mud Mask by Pure & Essential Minerals. As part of this Tomoson campaign I received a product code so that I could place an order for a jar of the Dead Sea Mud Mask directly from Amazon.com.
The night before receiving the Dead Sea Mud Mask I got a confirmation email which also contained detailed instructions on how to apply the product. After dinner I was anxious to get started, so I grabbed my head band, removed my make-up with a cleansing cloth then washed my face with warm water.
After washing my face and patting it dry I began applying the Dead Sea Mud Mask. I only put on a medium layer making sure to avoid my eyes and lips, then washed my fingers. I was surprised that it went on smoothly with no gritty feeling which is common in some mud masks.
I immediately smelled the Eucalyptus Oil, which gave me a slight tingling sensation, yet there was no major skin irritation or redness and all the other ingredients are organic in nature.
I kept the mask on for 15 minutes, and while waiting I read the side of the jar which contained facts about the Dead Sea. Interesting fact: The Dead Sea is located between Israel and Jordan and is 1400 feet below sea level which is the lowest point on the earth’s surface.
The Dead Sea Mud Mask is supposed to draw out impurities, toxins and excess oils to leave the skin feeling soft and clean. Dead Sea minerals nourishes and restores skin’s vitality, stimulates and improves blood circulation, resulting in a wonderful glow.
After 15 minutes I rinsed my face with warm water using circular motions to exfoliated the skin, then used the wash cloth to remove some remaining mud. It was a quick and non messy process that made my face feel smoother even the next morning I noticed a difference.
I splashed my face with cold water which seals the pores, used a little moisturizer then poured a glass of Sweet Red. This is definitely going to be part of my Friday night “pamper me” regiment to keep my skin silky smooth all summer long.
What is your favorite “pamper me” time product?

Hello friends, I trust you all are having a wonderful Wednesday. Some of you may or may not know that I have very fine and thin hair which unfortunately has been getting thinner as the years progress. I want to chalk it up to heredity because my primary physician as well as a dermatologist couldn’t diagnose the “root” cause – no pun intended.
At first I thought it was stress induced from being a caregiver to my grandmother, but she has since passed, 5 years now and my hair still hasn’t gotten thicker. I’ve had blood work and thyroid tests completed and nothing out of the ordinary was found, but it hasn’t stopped me from trying various hair re-growth products.
Recently, I had an opportunity to test a Biotin Vegetarian Capsule and Vibrance Vitamins from eunatural.com. Biotin is a vitamin that aids in hair growth and strong nails. I ordered it directly from Amazon.com and am currently in my 2nd week. There are only slight changes in the thickness of my hair, however, I will continue with the regiment and keep you posted on the results.
What do you use to keep your hair healthy and strong?

The Java House Café in Middletown recently hosted two books signings for local authors. The first one was on Saturday with Richelle N. Rodgers, author of Forever Growing A Journey of Trust. This autobiography gives you insight into her life which is filled with joy and sadness as well as near death experiences by both she and her husband, but her strong faith and trust in God has given her more than the world has taken.
Richelle is Philadelphia native presently residing in Elkton, Maryland with her husband of 38 years and is a grandmother of triplets. Her passion for empowering others to be the best they can be in their relationship with God is prevalent throughout the book. As a Franchise Consultant in both the Museum and Insurance industries as well as an Independent Contractor for CCI, she has had the opportunity to travel outside of the United States including trips to Bosnia and Italy. Richelle is currently a Lay Prayer Associate and an Eucharistic Minister and Lector at her church.
Richelle has dedicated her life in helping others and as a Vietnam Vet is currently working on a Women Veteran Leadership Awards Symposium to be held in DC this fall.
It took 3 years of prayer and the encouragement from family and friends for this book to become the first in what I believe will be a successful career of an Inspirational author.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart.” – Proverbs 3:5

Hello Friends and Happy Hump Day Wednesday.
Today is Tayair’s first day of work – Yay, Congratulations and welcome to the wonderful world of adulthood! He was hired as a seasonal employee for Amazon.com and will be packing those wonderful holiday gifts being shipped from Delaware.
Today is also “Preppy Day” at Appo High School and here’s Malik’s version of being preppy.
Today was also the first time I used the tripod and timer and I must admit that it’s harder smiling for a camera when there is no one behind it – lol
