One of the hardest parts of being a grown up is making sure you are prepared for most 'catastrophes'. One I always had a tough time with is rips/tears in clothes. For myself I hate shopping so a hole means bad day. For my kids they damage everything so quickly I would go broke trying to keep up. So I do what my brain tells me a responsible mom would- I make sure I always have a thread cut handy. The only problem is they always coming in either plastic cases that break and dismantle or apart. I cannot seem to keep all pieces in one place at the time I need it. That is until I got my hands on 'Quick Stitch' . The kit has everything you would need for quick fixes including scissors, thread, needles etc. It comes in a pound similar to a CD case. It is very well built with each tool coming with it's own holding spot. When I price compared the 'Quick Stich' beats everyone else by at least a $1. You can carry the pouch where ever you go with it being so compact. You can even use the scissors for stray hairs if it floats your boat. It is a great buy that saves you from lost parts and misplaced items. With 12 colors and thread of several needle options it will definitely become your go-to pouch.
I received a full size sample of Foxbrim's 100% Organic Argan Oil. If I had to come up with one word to describe it would be FANTABULOSIS. Yes I would need to create a new word. I have used almost the entire bottle in less than a month. Not because the bottle isn't big but because I use it for EVERYTHING. If you walk into my house you get a courtesy drop. If you have read other reviews of mine you'll notice my skin has been a issue. Instead of using lotion I decided to see how the Argan oil worked. Honestly it felt good! I was shocked, I was worried I would be glistening from the oil but my skin took to it very well. It worked differently then a moisturizer in the sense it didn't feel like it sat on top of my skin it felt like it became part of it. Because it worked so well I started using it for my split ends and eventually to tame fly aways. My daughter's acne gets some daily now. A friend of mine had a nasty looking finger where the cut looked like it was inching towards infection and was white-literally after two days it was normal color! I am posting pics below to give you a idea of a scratch my cat gave me to show you how quickly you see the difference. I cannot provide enough rave reviews to do this product justice! Easy to use and fast results-great buy. Foxbrim is quickly becoming my go-to company for health and beauty.
For those of you who have read the People Speaks Series a 7th book is not surprising. Those who haven't should know this: The stories are individual so there is no overlap. Lucky seven brings us more of the emotional stories we have gotten accustomed. Rabbi Walder has a great way of making us feel we are hearing these stories firsthand as if by a family member. Brutally honest it is a great book and series for those who are looking for a emotion tug. The book is available on Amazon . Try just one and you will be hooked! Thank you Rabbi for allowing us to travel this emotional journey with you. And thank you to those who shared their stories it takes guts.

One of my to-date most favorite products I have reviewed! My little one's gum's have been hurting him. When I initially seen the price for this teething ring I wondered how it would differ from the less expensive ones you can buy in the store. And quite honestly thought all teether's were created equal; that is until this one came in the mail. Beabie's teething toy texture was great! It has a bend to it but was strong and sturdy so a baby can chew on it even with a few teeth and you do not have to worry about it breaking. It also was on rings which made it great for my little one to be able to hold it at his hearts content! The best thing if you can attach a pacifier to the toy and whala you do not have to worry it will get lost or the binky will get lost because it makes both easy to find. This is a great product to give as a gift or buy for your own bundle of joy. And look at how cute is it packaged! Love it
Lately I have had the honor of testing lots of various products. I have decided to share my experience with you when I find one I can't live without!!!
I have been struggling to find a moisturizer that I felt hydrated my skin. I had wasted a lot of money on ones that left a good on my face, white flakes or were too watery. This one was perfect. Right when I put it on my skin took it in and felt very soft right away. Throughout the day I did not have to reapply because it felt dry again. Not only is it a great product excellent customer service. Jill (VP) kept in touch with me every step of the way making sure I knew where my order was at from purchase to following up after shipment. I have purchased many high end moisturizers but they never left my skin as happy as this one did. I would highly recommend this as a treat to yourself or a gift for a loved one. Even though the product was provided in exchange for honest unbiased feedback this is my true experience with the product! Try it out and you will agree.

I had the honor of reading a new children's book called Isecas the Dream Cat by Preston Squire.
This is a children's story but not the kind I was used to! It was much more than that. The story is about Sahar- a girl I think we can all relate to at some point of time in our lives where we didn't quite fit in. It is a great story about tolerance, acceptance, confidence and hope! Dixie Albanez did a great job with the illustrations. She is a very talented artist. The pictures were part of the story and helped put you in the mind of Sahar. The character is so relatable that I think it transcends gender and ethnicity. It is a perfect book to use to provide a opportunity for open dialogue with your children to find out if they are having a tough time at school with peers or if they know someone who is. I think the greatest thing is the moral of the story which is believing in yourself. I can't say enough how great this story is. This book is one of those where you want to follow the character's life after the story ends! To find info on the character check out the dedicated Facebook page! Order a copy on Amazon and enjoy! Let me know what you thought of the story in the comments below. I have a major issue with the skin under my eyes getting extremely dry. It is hard for me to find a eye cream because on top of that I have bad allergies! Since I do not sleep that often throw in a mix of heavy dark circles and it just isn't a good look. Because of this I need to make sure I use products that are as close to natural as possible and do not run off when my eyes water. I tried Foxbrim's Youthful Radiance Eye Cream to see if this could be the answer to my prayers!
I have been using Foxbrim's eye cream for about a month and a half now. I have noticed when I wake up I do not have flaky skin under my eyes and the skin feels plump. The only thing that bothered me at first was there was a bit of something that I could only describe as minty. It only bothered me when I applied it for the first time and it may have been that I applied it too close to the corners of my eyes. The darkness has gone away slightly I will keep using it and post before&after pics on my Instagram page for results! I would definitely recommend the product for those who have dry under eye skin and darkness. My only advise would be to be careful when applying and let it set before you put on makeup. Great price and you do not need to dab on a ton to get the effects. Also it is all organic ingredients include: Aloe, Jojoba Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Rosehip Seed Oil, Green Tea, Vitamin C + E, Tamanu Oil and MORE. The company also has a satisfaction guaranteed clause so you can try at no risk! ***see Amazon details I was introduced to the People Speak series at #5. Even though I hadn't read the other 4 it didn't anything from book 5; instead it made me eager to catch the first books in the series.
The People Speak books dedicate a chapter to a life. It reminded me of one of my favorites HBO films 'If these walls could talk'. The book is written by Chaim Walder and are stories told to him which he has then put his flair on in his series. The cool thing is even though he put all the stories together in book form you still feel as if the story is being told to you firsthand. I was able to read through the book during my work travel trip; the book set up was perfect for this because I could pick it up and start a new story at each stop. This really was a good book that I would recommend to anyone who likes getting in the mind of others. You can check out the book on Amazon I received the Fraser scale to review. The first thing I liked about it is the durability. It was compact which is great when you are cooking and do not have a lot of room left on your counter and thin where it is easy to store. Of all the food scales I have used this one has been the sleekest design and easiest to use. The weight is easy to read and big enough for kids, busy moms and even older parents to use. I would definitely not only recommend this product but purchase as a gift for my family and friends who can use this for recipes and healthy eating.

I was asked to try out a new product from Nature meets science. It was for their fractionated coconut oil they are now offering. I jumped at the chance not only because coconut oil is one of my favorite products but I love dealing with this company.
If you haven't tried coconut oil before let me tell you a few things I have personally used it for. Chicken strips- the coconut taste is not at all overwhelming. They add just a hint of sweetness. Skin Moisturizer- from cuts to dry winter skinn Hair- This leaves your hair super soft! and smelling great Fist Aid- This is really helpful for cuts and minor burns. Leaves the skin soft. I was totally jazzed when this came in! Total excuse to ask for a massage :) This oil was great. It didn't dry up fast, the smell wasn't overwhelming and it didn't leave me feeling sticky the rest of the night. It comes in a great 'super size' bottle that will last for more than just a few massage sessions. My skin has been extremely dry this winter so I dabbled on my skin and it worked AMAZINGLY. If anyone has not used coconut oil you should know once you try it you will never go back!
