I loved the mini Crock Pots which were just too adorable, and we used them for the veggies but wouldn’t they be cool for holding a bean dip?  All the items in the set, especially the Black Plates are very sturdy and can be hand washed to be used again.

As you can see from the pictures, the frosted, Stem Wine Glasses were our favorites, especially when filled with cold Apple Cider…and then later with some chilled wine!

InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask

When my sons were toddlers they would cry like crazy every time their father would cut their hair.  Thankfully, those days are gone forever, and now they are more than eager to either have him cut it or they’ll do it themselves.  Despite the tears, it did help us save a lot of money because we never had to take them to a Barbershop.

Now that they are older and can cut their own hair, they do know that grooming involves more than just cutting, washing and drying it.  To maintain a healthy head of hair and keep it looking good, they need to use a a good moisturizer.  InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask is a product they both have used several times a week.

Argan Oil Hair Mask

The InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask is a deep conditioning treatment that helps to keep their hair moisturized and healthy.  InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask has a pleasant smell because it contains Argan Oil, Coconut Oil, Amino Acid Complex, Shea Butter and Vitamin B5, all ingredients that work together to nourish and moisturize the hair. 

Argan Oil Hair Mask

Tayair likes to put just a little of the InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask on his hair before showering.  First he rubs it through his hair, massaging it into his scalp, then waits 10 minutes before showering to rinse it  out.  However, it can also be used as a daily conditioner and as you can see, it gives his hair a nice shine without any heavy residue.

Hair Care Product

If InstaNatural Argan Oil Hair Mask is a hair care product that you or someone in the family might like,  it can be ordered and quick shipped directly from Amazon.com.

Limm iPhone Armband Review

Hello friends,

I don’t know about you, but when it comes to exercise I have to admit that I don’t get enough of it.  I don’t run or jog but I do like to walk both outdoors, weather permitting and in the evenings on my elliptical, energy permitting – lol.  

However, my favorite exercise of all times is working outside in the yard.  During this time of the year hubby and I spend our Sunday afternoons outside doing yard work. He mows the lawn, trims and edges the walkway, while I cut back the Spring and Summer foliage and pull those weeds which never seem to stop growing!

Limm iPhone Armband

Autumn is the best time of the year to work outside because it’s not too hot nor too cold, and listening to music makes it even more enjoyable.  While hubby rides the lawnmower, he is listening to music from an iPhone in his pocket and headphones on his ears.  

While I trim trees and hedges I’m listening to music with an iPhone nestled securely in a Limm iPhone Armband with buds in my ears.  The Limm iPhone Armband keeps the iPhone safe and secure with an adjustable and stretchable strap that doesn’t interfere with my arm movements.

Limm Iphone Armband

The Limm iPhone Armband is made of a material that keeps the phone protected from sweat and has a built in pocket to hold a single key, so if you are out for a run or walk, just tuck your house, desk or car key inside.  If your exercise regiment also includes working outdoors and you want to listen to music while you work, try this Limm iPhone Armband, which would also make for a great stocking stuffer, you can order one today from Amazon.com

iGotTech Magnetic Screen Door Review

Hello friends,

Now that the heat of the summer is over the Stink Bugs have started looking for a warm place to call home, and I need to make sure it’s not mine!  We used to have a screen door installed in the laundry room but last year the wild Winter winds grabbed and tore it off.  Not wanting to install a new door I decided to try the iGotTech Magnetic Screen Door.

Magnetic screen door After ordering and receiving the Screen Door from Amazon.com, I watched the installation video and read a few of the reviews.  Here in Delaware, we have some seriously cold winters and hot humid summers so the Velcro strips and tacks that were included may not be strong enough to hold the screen in place for more than a season.  If we still had an awning, which was also torn away, (see the frame pieces in this picture), it would provide additional protection over the screen making it last longer.

Our house is also located in a “wind tunnel” so we will need to add metal strips around the door frame before attaching the screen.

Hubby agreed to help me with the install, but he had to leave town for the weekend, but if you want to see how to install the iGotTech Magnetic Screen, watch this YouTube video.

100% Natural Konjac Facial Sponge

Hello friends,

 

as you know, I am always on the look out for beauty products that are not only made of natural ingredients but are also non-irritating to my skin.  I remember using puffs and scrubbers when I was younger, but now I tend to shy away from them because they can be too harsh for my face.  

I recently ordered this pureSOL 100% Natural Konjac Facial Sponge from Amazon and my first impression was one of concern because it was very hard.  However, after soaking it for a few minutes in the sink it became fully soft.

pureSOL Konjac Facial Sponge

Soaked in the sink for a few minutes turned this hard sponge into a very soft one.

softened in water

pureSOL Konjac Facial Sponge is 100% natural and eco-friendly, free of parabens, sulphates & chemicals, is biodegradable, cruelty free and vegan.

soft after the soak

I only needed to use a small amount of my favorite facial cleanser and along with the pureSOL sponge it cleaned my face gently with no irritation.

add your favorite cleanser

The pureSOL Konjac Facial Sponge gently exfoliates while deep cleansing and removing any toxins and impurities, leaving a radiant complexion. It is extremely soft and gentle for everyday skin care. Great for all skin types.  

The natural woven fibers of the sponge gently massage the skin and stimulate blood flow. It detoxifies and encourages skin renewal while balancing the skins pH, leaving your skin extremely clean and refreshed! 

The added BAMBOO CHARCOAL contains activated carbon and essential minerals to deeply cleanse and absorb excess sebum, toxins and other harmful chemicals from your skin.

hang to dry

 

pureSOL Konjac Facial Sponge comes with an EASY-TO- HANG SUCTION HOOK, perfect for hanging in a well-ventilated space so it’s dry and ready for you to use the following day. It is recommended that you replace the sponge every 2-3 months and because it’s biodegradable, just throw it into your plants or garden soil.  

You can order your own pureSOL Konjac Facial Sponge today from Amazon.com and it will ship to arrive quickly to your home or place of business.

EatSmart Precision MaxView Digital Bathroom Scale

 

Hello friends,

well it has been a little over two weeks since I started my weight loss journey and am proud to report that I am down 4 lbs already – Yay me!  I’m not one who likes to weigh in every day even if it’s thought to be more of a motivator if you do.

Product Review - EatSmart

We keep our bathroom scale downstairs in the powder room which is another reason why I don’t step on it daily – “out of sight – out of mind”   Now that we have the Eat Smart Precision MaxView Digital Scale I am more inclined to do so not only because it’s so precise, but because it has a large LCD display that I can read without my glasses.

Product Review - EatSmart

I let Tayair try out the scale first and was shocked to see that since his surgery he had lost 8 lbs, but was more shocked when I stepped on it and realized that I must have found them!  That is definitely more of a reason to put down the wine and bread and pick up the dumbbells and jump rope.

Product Review - EatSmart

I like this EatSmart Precision MaxView Bathroom Scale and have decided to move it upstairs into our bathroom as more of an incentive to reach my goal weight before my 53rd birthday on the 20th.

Product Review - EatSmart

 The EatSmart Precision ViewMax Bathroom Scale has a 400 lb capacity, and comes with 2 year Guarantee.  The scale requires 2 AAA batteries which are included and it was ordered and shipped quickly from Amazon.com.

What motivates you to keep your weight in check?

Olixar OmniHolder Universal In-Car Mount

Hello friends,

you know that saying, “big things come in small packages”? Well that is how I would describe this Olixar OmniHolder Universal In Car Mount.

Olixar OmniHolder Review

 

It’s small, lightweight and is the perfect size for “Bloggy Buggy’s” dashboard yet it’s sturdy enough to keep a grip on my Galaxy S4 Smartphone.  It has a padded extending arm to fit other phone models so I can let one of my mini men use it on occasion. I used the adhesive plate to mount it onto the dash but there is also a suction cup so they can put it onto their windshield.

Olixar OmniHolder Review

It’s also small enough as not to be a distraction while I’m driving and can be rotated or tilted in case I want to use the GPS feature on my phone.

What I like most about the car holder is that once I put my phone into it, it stays put. I don’t have to worry about my phone falling onto the floor on sliding off the seat when I need to brake hard. It stays visible yet out of reach which keeps me from checking email and social media at stop lights, which is a bad habit that I need to break.

The car holder was ordered and shipped quickly from Mobile Fun.com and I am seriously thinking about getting one for my mini men as a Christmas Stocking Stuffer that way I’ll always have mine in the car.

Let’s Chat, do you check your Smartphone when stopped at a red light?

The Amazing Miracle Cleanse


Hello friends,

most of you know that hubby was diagnosed with small intestinal cancer for which he had surgery on March 31st.  His last two appointments have shown no signs of it, but he will still need to have blood tests taken every few months.

He actually started having digestive problems at the age of 45, hence the annual colonoscopies before the cancer was detected.  However, even now with the removal of it he still experiences bowel problems.  

Varies laxatives, both prescribed and over the counter fill our medicine cabinet but nothing seems to work all the time.  He eats plenty of fruits and veggies, very little to no red meat and is back to exercising, however, the problems still exists.  

Now that I’ve the opportunity to order Green Tree Life Sciences “The Amazing Miracle Cleanse” from Amazon.com, I’m hoping it might actually be the miracle cleanse that works. This all natural detox and colon cleanse dietary supplement is supposed to provide results in 12-24 hours to those suffering from constipation, gas and bloating.

The Amazing Miracle Cleanse  

The Amazing Miracle Cleanse can be taken as needed or as a 15-day cleanse detoxification when taking 2 capsules a day for 2 weeks. I’ll check with hubby to see if he wants to give it a try, who knows, this just might be just what his colon needs.  If he does and it works, I’ll come back to this post with the results.

Have you ever tried a cleanse?  If not, but are interested, use the code TOMOSON5 to receive a $10 discount on your order of The Amazing Miracle Cleanse.

Pure Raspberry Ketones


Hello friends,

if you’ve spent anytime in the car listening to the radio, I’m sure you’ve heard the commercials for Raspberry Ketones.  They are advertised as being a proven fat burner and appetite controller, even Dr. Oz has labeled them “Fat Burner in a Bottle

raspberry ketones I now have an opportunity to try them after ordering a bottle from Summit Nutritions via Amazon.com.  I plan on beginning the regiment on August 20th, exactly 1 month before my 53rd birthday at which time I will post the results.

Raspberry Ketones are FDA approved and are designed to burn body fat which is then converted into energy.  One tablet taken twice a day, 30 minutes before a meal will act as an appetite suppressant.  This combined with a balanced diet (no more brownies and cakes) along with regular exercise I should lose weight, wish me luck!
