Dad can remember Mother's Day too :)

-

Mother's Day is almost here. In our home, Daddy takes the kids out to buy a gift for me for Mother's Day. In recent years, he also has a gift for me from him. Normally flowers. It's very nice that he acknowledge me and says thank you for being a Mother of our children.

With toys for couples, sexy lingerie, sensual products, Dad can remember Mother's Day too!

While gifts from EdenFantasys aren't what you might typically think of as Mother's Day gifts, they certainly can be. Flowers can't give massages!

Create a romantic evening, or just purchase products for Mom's me time.

EdenFantasys offers free shipping on orders $59 and over.

Hurraw! All Natural. Organic. Vegan. Raw. Good. ~ Sun & Moon Balms ~ GIVEAWAY!!! ~ Ends 5/13 ~ 2 Winners!!!

I like many of you, am a self confessed lip stuff addict. I have one in my jacket pocket, two in my diaper bag, one in my purse, tons in my make-up dish, one on the bar in the kitchen, several in the bathroom, and I must always check my jeans pockets as I've ruined many pieces of clothing forgetting.


I can't think of many girls I've known who haven't been equally addicted. Several years of not seeing my cousin, we meet for drinks to catch up. I'd say 1/4 of our conversation was about what makes the perfect lip gloss. I asked my sister in-law in England for gift ideas - she says lip goodies that she hasn't tried from America. It's a common denominator, a bonding agent, the smooth, shiny, slickness that binds us. Ok, I'll stop - you get the point.

Hurraw! is to lip gloss what Jelly Belly is to Jelly Beans. So many fun flavors - the only bad thing is trying to choose!

I have licorice, lemon, grapefruit, root beer, & cinnamon. The balm is a treat for the lips - smooth & creamy, no pull, no goop, natural shine. The flavor is a treat for your mouth - who needs candy!

The ingredient list is raw, organic, Gluten Free, No GMO's, Kosher, & non-toxic. No petrol products. Lots of good for you stuff like olive & coconut oils, and naturally derived flavors. It's healthy & you can tell. I  <3 Hurraw! Balms :))

From the site:


Why Hurraw! is unique:

We hand mix and individually pour each tube of Hurraw! Balm. We truly care about the quality and integrity of our product and feel Hurraw! is the finest all natural, vegan, raw balm available...a great product to be used by everyone regardless of lifestyle or eating habits!


Sourcing honest, fair trade, organic, vegan and raw ingredients from reputable suppliers was difficult at best. We finally did it and we are thrilled to share the labors of our hard work with other balm lovin' individuals. Your purchase supports legit fair trade, organic farmers and suppliers here in the States and around the World. Thank you!

I'm excited to share with you -just launched today, Hurraw!'s Sun & Moon Balms!

We love the Sun. It's amazing. We believe limited, smart exposure is actually pretty o.k. for the skin. But for those long exposure times, our Sun Balm will give your lips the extra protection they need.


It glides on silky smooth (and clear) like our regular balms but we formulated it to be extra thick and creamy for longer staying power while out in those shining rays! Juicy Tangerine and calming Roman Chamomile extract make it super delish for your lips. Did we mention it is packed full of amazing cold pressed oils to moisturize, protect and heal your lips?

Red Raspberry Seed oil: Exceptionally high in tocopherols, this lovely oil nourishes the lips, is anti-inflammatory and proven to help in the absorbance of the Sun's rays.

Sea Buckthorn oil: Super rich and off the charts in essential fatty acids, carotenes, tocopherols, and phytosterols which are great for healing sun-damaged lips.

Pomegranate Seed oil: Deeply penetrating and an anti-oxidant powerhouse; remarkable for the outer epidermal layer of the lips.

We use non nano Zinc Oxide in our Sun Balm. Zinc Oxide is the only all natural, broad spectrum (blocks both UVA and UVB) sun screen available today. Zinc Oxide is a mineral. It protects your lips by sitting on top of them and thus, provides a physical barrier against UVA and UVB rays. It actually deflects the rays away from the skin to prevent any harm. For adequate protection it must be applied often.

A good night's sleep can be the best thing ever. It's even better when you have lip balm on! We have been using our Moon Balm Formula for years and thought other lip balm lovers would dig using a Night Treatment Balm as well.


Extra thick, creamy and rich; this balm has some serious staying power. The Vanilla and Peru Balsam scent will lull you to sleep. Azulene packed Blue Chamomile lends a gorgeous green-blue color and soothes your lips for some true beauty z's!

Check out what it's packin'...

Avocado Oil: Thick and vitamin rich, exceptionally high in Vitamins A & E. Highly recommended for sensitive and problem lips; rich in essential fatty acids.

Rosehip Seed Oil: Combats dry lips and has amazing anti-aging and rejuvenation properties. Proven to regenerate skin, reduce scars, knock out wrinkles and UV damage.

Meadowfoam Seed Oil: Amazing moisturizing and rejuvenating capabilities. Loves to adhere to lips making it a great assistant in preventing night time moisture loss.

Argan oil: Berber women Fair Trade harvest this amazing oil while the profits go back into preserving the argan forests. Super restorative; perfect to use at night!


Just in time to welcome the rays of the sun - protect & restore!

Let NMEDA put your loved one on the road to independence

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of NMEDA for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Can you imagine how difficult it would be to be a caregiver to a disabled person. Most of us cannot. NMEDA is here to assist.

NMEDA is a non-profit organization that educates people on buying safe driving products for disabled people from qualified dealers.

NMEDA does not sell anything. They promote safe driving and equipment.

No two people with a disablity are the same. No two needs are the same. This is where NMEDA comes in. Don't fall into purchasing low quality wheelchair adapted vehicles online of through catalogs. Make sure to contact NMEDA for a personalized, in person evaluation to ensure you're getting the right driving solution for your specific needs. Also, more training or further adjustments are available. This is what your NMEDA dealer can do for you.

There are also Quality Assurance Program ( QAP ) dealers. This is the only nationally accredited organization for the Addaptive Mobility  Equipment Industry and is based on the principle that in order to satift customers consistantly, there must be a systematic and documented approach to quality.

An NMEDA dealer can help the elderly or disabled back on the road to independence.

I found two dealerships within 50 miles of me. Stop by NMEDA for a location near you.

Happy Earth Day 2011

LOVE YOUR WORLD

Go outside, soak in the sun, take a deep breath, lay in the grass, plant a seed, watch the birds, get your hands dirty.

Revel in the just how miraculous the Earth is - all it's systems, it's life sustaining abilities, the seasons, gravity - it's quite something if you really think about it.

Then truly realize it's the only one we have.

Love your world

Home Ec 101 — Skills for Everyday Living ~ REVIEW

Whether it's cleaning grout, stocking a pantry, reducing a recipe, dealing with chocolate in the carpet or retrieving jewelry dropped down the drain, Home-Ec 101 will help readers feel confident in managing the domestic challenges of everyday life. The information will be easy to use and written with the same witty style and attitude readers love on the blog, home-ec101.com. Charts, tips, sidebars and "Dear Home Ec 101" letters cover all the details readers need to know to keep their homes clean and in good repair.

In this book, Heather teaches us how to Clean it, Wash it , Fix it , Cook it. She walks us through getting started, tools we'll need, scheduling it, when to do what, techniques, and pep talks :)

Who is Heather? She's the author. Heather Solos created home-ec101.com in 2007. The site had nearly 400,000 visitors in 2009. The website and the author have been featured by StrollerDerby, ParentDish, Lowcountry Parent, The Post and Courier, and ReadCharlie. The website was also cited as a reference in Woman's Day Magazine. Solos has served as a featured blogger on Type-A Mom and Blissfully Domestic. Hidden by her monitor, Heather Solos is charming, a little snarky, and can answer household questions with the greatest of ease. In public, she's a little shy and happiest at the nerd's table riffing on web tech and shiny toys over beer and nachos. At home in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, she's a writer and blogger. She stays busy with four kids and a patient husband who doesn't seem to mind living in a test kitchen where food must be photographed before it is served :))

Home Ec- 101 is fun & easy to read. Feels like you're reading a cheat sheet that my Grandma & Betty Crocker sat down to create. In fact, you feel like you're learning a dieing art - practical care of all things to do with home. The only thing I would have like to see in this book that wasn't there - gardening & canning/pickling. Everything else is in there.

There are wonderful charts - homemade cleaning solutions, dangerous chemical combinations, emergency preparedness checklist, & measurement conversion chart.

A plethora of tips.

It's one of those books that is fun just to flip though the pages randomly and see what you find. Last night I was flipping through and found a helpful tip that I wish I would have known before and I imagine will be helpful to some of you at some point. Ok - Baking Powder - a leavening agent used to increase the volume and lighten the texture of baked goods. Without it, your muffins will be flat as a pancake. Have you ever had that happen? Making muffins , cakes, or biscuits that are just flat? I have - it ruins the recipe & wastes all the other ingredients. To solve the problem, write the purchase date on the lid when you buy it. Typically a tin should last four months if stored in a cool, dry place. If there is a question, put a teaspoon of baking powder into a cup of warm water - if it bubbles, it's active. If not it's time for a new tin but at least you save wasting a batch of whatever you're making.

In between all of this wonderful information, are reader questions - sent in by people just like us. Some are common question, others not so much. Always a smart answer with a bit of humor thrown in for good measure!

* Vacuum Regularly - vacuum deeply a minimum of once a week. For each person or pet in the household, add an additional day to sweep though quickly.

* Sorting Stripes - when in doubt what color to wash with, wash in cold with the darker of the stripe colors.

* Never use water on an electrical or grease fire!

*Don't adjust the temperature - increasing the oven temp is not a shortcut - you only end up with burnt or over cooked outer & raw or undercooked inner.

For these and many, many more tips to help improve your skills for everyday living, grab yourself a copy! Makes a perfect gift for a new home owner, new Mother, or child going off to college!

Thanks to One2One network for the review opportunity!

I am really excited to share this wonderful company with all of you. I feel like I'm offering you one of the nicest, most versatile, touching gift ideas I've seen in awhile.

When I say nicest, I mean high quality with great attention for detail. I'll start with packaging - my care package arrived temperature controlled, packed securely with shredded paper, each item was topped with a cheery yellow ribbon, and upon opening there was a pretty paper wrap. The whole presentation was very pleasing to the eyes. Then, there's the products - I received a family size glass jar of old-fashioned chicken noodle soup, 6 oatmeal raisin cookies, & 6 made from scratch rolls. Everything was highest quality and so yummy.

When I say most versatile, I mean that this package would make a wonderful & thoughtful gift for almost any occasion. Get Well, Sympathy, New Baby, House Warming, Holiday, or a simple "I'm Thinking of You" gift.

By touching, I mean that any recipient of this gift would truly be touched. This allows them to relax and enjoy a home cooked meal of favorite comfort foods without having to lift a finger. It screams I care about you. The packaging alone will brighten anyone's day.

I am just so happy to have found Spoonful of Comfort - it really is a wonderful, healthy ( all natural, no preservatives)  way to say I care.  Like a big hug :)
