I was completely shocked to read yesterday that a company actually plans to make perfumes for babies. WTH??? Babies already have such a sweet and unique smell. Why on earth would you want to cover up that deliciousness with an artificial scent that comes from a bottle? Why would you want your child to smell like the noxious perfume isle of a department store? Well, I guess this is a case of "to each their own right"? Well, no it shouldn't be in this case because perfumes are notorious for … [Read more...]

Staying Warm in Winter with Pellet Stoves
When I moved to Ohio some eight years I was not used to cold winter weather. I was raised in Phoenix, Arizona so I was a delicate desert flower. But upon settling into our first home here in Ohio we had a rude awakening to what winter is really like. We were living in a super drafty old place that had a very large addition build onto the original house. The main section warmed up just fine, even if the price of heating oil for the furnace was enough to send me into cardiac arrest each month. The … [Read more...]
Bacon Wrapped Shrimp with Garlic Oil
Another meal success with eMeals! I wrote about them a little over a week ago and how their service is helping me plan some yummy meals. This particular meal was on their special Paleo Valentine's menu that was a bonus perk of membership. They have a regular Valentine's menu too but since I am on the paleo menu plan I got the paleo one. I thought that was very nice bonus. My husband will be working on Valentine's Day most likely so we went ahead and made one of the meals today for a cozy … [Read more...]
NutriPro Cold Press Juicer Review
I have made no secret that I am not really big on juicing. I have a Vita-Mix and we just seem to prefer whole foods juices and smoothies, with all the pulp and juice combined. That said it can be very nice though to have a cup of fruit or veggie juice without all the frothy pulp and the full tummy that comes after drinking a whole foods juice. My kids especially like juices and we are loathe to buy them at the store because of all the unsavory ingredients (like lots of added sugar) that often … [Read more...]
SodaStream Super Bowl Commercial Rejected
I admit to you that I did not watch the Super Bowl. It did not play anywhere in my home and we attended no parties. My husband and I could give two licks about football so why bother? I guess this also means I missed out on all the wonderfully entertaining commercials but I will survive I think. Because I didn't watch I don't care to get irate about the inappropriate content of the commercials. I have two eyes that are capable of looking away when I see stuff I don't like anyway. I see no … [Read more...]
