Oilogic Essential Oils~A Mom’s Must Have!

I have said it before, and I will say it again, I love essential oils and the power they pack. I use them for many things. One brand that I am extremely fond of is Oilogic. Oilogic Essential Oil Care always uses 100% Pure Essential Oils that are sourced from around the world. Each of their blends include the right concentration of each powerful oil, diluted appropriately with a carrier oil, to create a safe, yet effective formula for your little ones. My family has seen the benefit of essential oils, and we can’t say enough good things about them!

The Secret Life Of Pets~ 2 Paws Up!

My kids are big animal lovers! So when we had the opportunity to screen The Secret Life of Pets, we jumped at it! The previews were a good tell of how much we would enjoy this movie. It was cute, relatable, and provided lots and lots of giggles!

Red, White, & Bleu Burgers with Litehouse Foods

Most of us grew up reaching for that bottle of room temperature dressing in the condiment aisle. We probably didn’t give much thought to the preservatives in those bottles that kept them on the shelf for so long. There is a better, more delicious way to dress your veggies: with fresh tasting, refrigerated Litehouse dressing. Because real food deserves real dressing. Your family will be asking for seconds and your kids will be eating their veggies in record amounts. Cold is where it’s sold!

The BFG~ 2 Giant Thumbs Up!

There is something so magical to me whenever I see a book I have read come to life on the big screen. You imagine the scenes in your head, voices, and expressions. What takes the cake is when this live version exceeds your expectations. That is what happened when Disney met Spielberg… pure magic!

Flavor Your Life European Olive Oil

I am Italian! So olive oil has always been a staple in our home. We use it in various ways, but one thing’s for sure- quality is everything. My Grandmother would use olive oil in most of her cooking. That passed down to my Father and then myself. One of my kids’ favorite things is when we have pasta with a fresh baguette and olive oil for dipping… yum!

The Magic Blanket

Sometimes falling asleep can be hard to do. My middle child struggles with this on a daily basis. When he was diagnosed with ADHD, we decided to use a mix of natural and medicinal treatments. Finding the right balance for this was difficult. One area that is particularly challenging for him is falling asleep. With lavender essential oil, no screen time, and the discovery of weighted blankets- we found our solution!

Lightlife Smart Dogs

Who loves hot dogs and burgers? I know I do! I love to grill during the summer, and my family loves gobbling up whatever I bring off the grill. I was excited to see what they thought of Lightlife Smart Dogs, the veggie hot dog.
