Gluten Free Brownie Thins Review

Image
Yum, Yum and Double Yum!! A lot of gluten free products taste gluten free. This products is the best gluten free product I've ever tasted!! Every one in the house kept taking them. My sister who can only eat Gluten free in her diet, wanted more. I was able to point her in the right direction to get herself some. My sister dreads going to parties and get togethers due to barely being able to eat foods out. Since she has started only being able to eat Gluten free products, I have been trying to make sure there are many different options for people. We have friends who are gluten free, my daughter is lactose intolerant and can only have foods made with skim milk. It is hard. You never know what person might have what. My whole family has been watching out for these problems. My son came home with the need to bring a candy for Halloween party at school. 1 of his little friends was a child who can only have gluten free. We read every container of candy. We finally found a couple.

MagiKuchen's Stainless Steel Fine Mesh Strainer Review

<a href="http://www.tomoson.com/?code=TOP9eb03684da49f75cb731a22aa72a2fef" rel="nofollow"><img style="display: none" src="http://www.tomoson.com/images/front/pixel.png" /></a This is a great strainer. We can use this one when we are not cooking for the whole family. With 10 people in the house, we have a HUGE strainer. The metal mesh in this strainer will not allow food to slip through. You can choose from a green or a black handle. I chose green so that it is easy to find in the cupboard. All my pots and pans are black handled. We don't make ramen noodles like most people. I don't eat it as a soup. I have used this strainer to dump out the water and then put the noodles in a bowl and pour the seasoning pack on top and stir. This is the perfect size for about 1lb box of spaghetti noodles. Or you can use for Quinoa, Rice, Noodles, Juice, Spiced Drinks and much more. 20 cm size is perfect for sifting any quantity of dry

Matcha Tea Ceremony Gift Set

Image
This is such a neat gift set. My daughter LOVES Matcha tea. She prefers it cold and blended with milk. But you can make it into a nice hot tea. Just use the wood scoop and put 2 large scoops into your bowl, pour half a cup of hot water, stir with the wood whisk, set the wish into the green "bowl" and drink. Not only does it taste good but the Matcha powder smells good! Lots of people trying to lose weight use green tea. The antioxidants alone are great for you. You can purchase this gift set for $49.99 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OI1SZOK/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8&qid=1430443383&sr=1&keywords=matcha+tea+ceremony+set Why not add a little Matcha to your day?

Lunchbox Buddies

Image
When kids go to school, sometimes even before lunch they have had a terrible day. Forgot their homework at home or a kid wasn't being very nice. Whatever the reason, they might need a pick me up. When I was younger, my days went so much better when I would find a little note tucked into my lunch box. The note didn't have to say much. Just a simple "I love you" or "have a good day" was enough to help me make it through the rest of my day. Lunchbox buddies are just that. A simple and quick way to make your child's day. Each packet has 20 characters. Each one with a little pick me up. "flex those smile muscles" or " I'm proud of you kiddo". My son loved that they are blank. He got to color them however he wanted. Different characters and designs. There are Goofballs 1 and Goofballs 2, Space cadets and Super Weirdos. Something for each child. Each 20 character pack is only $3.99 http://lunchboxbuddies.com/products.php

24 Ct. Hot Chocolate For Keurig K Cup Type Brewers Review

Image
Keurig machines are the newest coffee machine fad around. Great for those people that need a quick cup of coffee in the morning. Saves making a whole pot while on the way to work. There are so many more options for the little K cups. They now have iced tea's, energy drinks, coffee's and now hot chocolate. I love to sit, at night, with a good book and a mug of hot cocoa. There isn't much out there more peaceful than that. This hot cocoa is all natural. Most hot chocolates have fake sugars and more stuff that you can't pronounce. But Black Bear Market is made in the U.S.A. with all natural ingredients including pure cane sugar, non-fat dry milk, cocoa, whey, natural flavor, salt, locust bean gum and stevia. It's nice to be able to sit down with a nice cup of hot cocoa. You can purchase this box of 24 cups for $15.95 http://www.amazon.com/Black-Bear-Market-Natural-Chocolate/dp/B00U33A39W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1430232188&sr=8-1&keywords=Bla

Meat Claws By Cheff Arts Review

Image
Everyone says that my oldest son looks like Wolverine..well now holding up the Meat Claws, he really does! We got a big kick out of this picture last night. We are so excited for grilling season to be coming back around. We love to grill. Rarely do we ever have anything like ribs, so this was perfect timing. My son was really excited to try these out. Normally is tongs and a plate very ready to grab the meat off the grill. Just jab the meat claws into the meat and lift. You can't get any simpler. These claws are very sturdy. You do not have to weasel the claws in. If the meat is tender and ready to be served they will slide right in. You can also use these when you want to pull meat apart. Use the claws like a bear would pull apart its meat. HEAT RESISTANT - Withstands temperatures up to 450*F/230*C -Unlike inferior products, you never have to worry about the tips melting To wash just toss in the top shelf of the dishwasher. Very handy, very sturdy and so easy to cle

Professional Pastry Blender Review

Image
My 14 year old is a baking freak! She is constantly baking us something. Whether it be cakes, cupcakes, brownies or pies. She liked this product a lot. She said it was a lot easier to use than a whisk or spoon. We have been trying to buy her products that would help her in fulfilling her passion of baking. Victorea would love to own a bakery one day. Although, I love this idea she is making us all gain weight. She is great at what she does. She gets terribly made when her treats are gone so quickly. We have to remind her that the reason they are gone is due to them being so yummy! Super easy to clean! Either with just hot water and soap or you can toss in the top rack of the dishwasher. The picture shows her making some of her great tasting frosting! Product Description •The professional dough blender is one of the heavy duty kitchen gadgets made from stainless steel construction that will not break, bend or rust. A hand blender that was meticulously designed to serv

Silicone Heat Resistant BBQ & Grill Gloves Review.

Image
These gloves are totally awesome! I could not imagine picking up the grate of the grill with a pot holder. Check out the end of this video where my son is wearing the Silicone Heat Resistant BBQ gloves. These gloves can fit me who has a really small hand and my son who has quite the large hands. I wasn't sure they would fit over his "mitts" due to them being so big. But guess what? They did! My daughter loves to bake and she has been so skeptical about these type gloves. She has a phobia about getting burnt. (as most of us do) She is able to take out cookie sheets and muffin tins with no problem at all. With her hands being as small as mine the gloves cover quite a bit of her wrist and arm too. That helps in case you accidently bump the side of the stove when you are removing your baked item. I love the lime green color! It is my daughters favorite color that is why I was excited to get these for her to try. BUT, if you watch the video of my son handling the BB

Lunch Bag Hango - Set of Two Sizes (Small &Large) Review

Image
This polyester bag set is very handy. There are so many use and possibilities. Diabetics usually carry a bag with all their insulin needs. The smaller one is perfect for that. We have a friend whose little girl has a Mic key feeding tube. She carries all her daughters blends around in a cooler bag. The bigger bag holds plenty of blend, syringe and water tub. My daughter is breastfeeding. She stores her pumped breast milk in the fridge or freezer. When needing to take a bottle along the insulated lunch bag is a must! Are you going to be taking a short road trip and need to take a lunch? Maybe not a long enough trip for a cooler? These Hango bags are perfect for this. We go see family 3 hours away on a semi regular basis. Not enough to pack a cooler. Its so much cheaper to pack bologna and cheese, then to stop and feed 6 kids Mc. Donald's. As you can see, this bag fits a lot of stuff and still zips close very comfortably. With its Zipper made of stainless steel you sh

Veggie Go's Review

Image
Veggie Go's are delicious! Great, healthy, on the go snack. Our 2 year old loves to snack all day, instead of eating 3 meals. We have found that keeping snacks on hand is the best help. Problem today is most kid friendly snacks are filled with tons of sugar and are not healthy. Veggie Go's are: 1. Gluten Free 2. No GMO's added 3. Organic 4. Vegan 5. Kosher 6. Dairy free 7. No preservatives 8. No added sugars You can feel great about feeding your kids Veggie-Go’s, that is if you don’t eat them first! The following are just a few of the reasons to choose Veggie-Go’s for your fruit and veggie strip. 1/2 serving of fruit AND 1/2 serving of veggies in every strip Less than 1/3 the sugar of the leading fruit strip (no added sugar or fruit concentrates) You can rest assured that when feeding your child or yourself Veggie Go's that you are eating a healthy snack. These are great for a quick snack break at work, take in the duffle to sports events, send

BBQ Grill Mat Review + Giveaway

Image
This product is great! We have tested a couple items lately that my kids swear will not work. Low and behold, when we test it, it works! This is one of the products. When my 16 year old, grill master, son pulled this out of the package he swore it was going to be too thin to use on the heat of the grill. After using on the hamburgers last night, he stands corrected. Just lay it on the rack of the grill and put the food that you are wanting to cook, on top and grill. Too wash it off just turn on the hot water, toss some dish soap on it and rinse and let air dry. So easy to use and so easy to clean! Great to take it on camping trips for those grills that you have no idea what has been on them. We love this product and fully recommend it! Father's Day is coming up and would make a great gift! A great item to use with this is the BBQ Silicone heat gloves: You can purchase this BBQ Grill Mat from Amazon for $12.99 http://www.amazon.com/BBQ-Grill-Mat-Whiz-Set/dp/B00

2 Premium Silicone Heat Resistant Grilling BBQ/Baking/ Review

Image
My 14 year old, is the baker in the family. She can't make treats without them disappearing asap. We tell her she puts drugs in her treats so we can't stay away. She kept telling us that the silicon gloves couldn't work. That they would be too thin to block the heat. So I jumped on the chance to review these. She was very surprised that they work so well. You can wear these with baking and or barbequing. These are heat resistant up to 425 degrees. So go ahead and bake those yummy treats and take them out with confidence that you will not get burned. You do still feel that it's warm but no burns. Product Description AYL Silicone Heat Resistant Grilling BBQ Gloves Set - One Size Fits All ★ Perfect For Use As Cooking Gloves, Baking, Smoking, Or Potholder ★ For Use on Hot Food in High Temperature In The Kitchen, Use As Grilling Gloves, Oven Gloves, Or Even Camping! ★ Protect Your Hands And Avoid Accidents With Insulated Waterproof Five Fingered Grip ★ F

Purex Power Shot Review

Image
My oldest daughter, who has laundry duty more than any of the other kids, loved this Power Shot bottle. It was so easy to use. All you do is open the can and then turn the bottle upside down. Each time that you do this you get one powerful shot of detergent. Once the bottle is turned upwards again, the shot top refills itself. That way you are ready when the next load is ready to be washed. There are 2 scents available at this moment and they are mountain Breeze and Natural Elements Linen and Lilies. I like the Mountain Breeze the best, but that is my opinion. Since we have such a large family we have to use 2 shots instead of just one. Our loads are large and demand more detergent. The slogan for the Power Shot is Flip. Dose. Done. there is no measuring, no guesswork and no mess As a mom, the no mess is my favorite part! It never fails that while doing the laundry you pour the bottle over and detergent leaks out...It is a mess! We only buy detergent and soaps that ar

Now Gluten Free Product Review

Image
- This Gluten Free actually tastes good! We got to make pancakes and brownies without the worry of tummy issues. My sister had to start going gluten free when she was going to the doctors regularly for pain and they couldn't figure out what the issue was. Finally she started reading about gluten allergies. She decided to go gluten free and the pains went away. It isn't always easy to find Gluten Free products. I have 3 stores within 50 miles of me that sell this product. Now is definitely a product to travel for. Check out how perfect these pancakes turn out Everyone loved them! Ultimate Fluffy Pancakes Ingredients: (Serves 4) 1 cup Living Now™ Gluten-Free Baking and Pancake Mix 1 egg (or substitute 1 tbsp applesauce + 1 tsp baking soda) 1 tsp melted butter (or substitute 1 tsp vegetable oil) 1 tsp NOW® Organic Vanilla Extract 2 tbsp sugar 1½ cups milk (or substitute 1½ cups rice milk) Directions: 1) Place lightly oiled pan or skillet on medium hea

Best Nut Milk Bag

Image
I had never heard of a nut milk bag before I got to do this review. I had heard of straining milk and other items in cheese cloth. This is a really fine meshed bag. I read a couple reviews to see what it was. It is a super soft mesh bag. We get milk from the farm and it sometimes needs to be strained. This is the perfect strainer for this. I have heard of people straining almonds for almond milk. I haven't tried this before. This is also great for straining fruit that you get at the farmers market here in town. We have a 21 month old who loves to eat fruits. She tends to eat the whole piece if we don't watch her. If you put the fruit inside the Nut Milk Bag and squeeze she only get the juice and not all the seeds and leaves on the top. We think this item is super neat! Just wash it with warm water and a little bit of soap to get it clean and ready to use again. Do not put this in the washing machine or the dryer. Great to have around for healthy eating! You can pur
