I was contacted recently to do a test drive on Meaningful Beauty’s new Advanced Anti-Aging Skincare System. After celebrating my 50th birthday with you, last summer, it’s probably time for me to face a couple of the tiny lines asserting themselves around my eyes. Holy cow! Were those there before? I have that “after 40″ [...]
Our family loves Neosporin for healing cuts and scrapes. You would be hard-pressed to ever find our medicine cabinet without a tube. That’s why I was particularly excited to have a chance to review the new Neosporin Essentials kit for treating eczema. As you may remember, from previous posts, my husband battles severe eczema on [...]
Imagine being a thirteen year-old-girl, and in a span of literally only a few months, you gain more than sixty pounds, even though your eating habits and activity level have had no changes. You develop severe and uncontrollable acne over your entire body and wide, purple stretch marks across all your skin. Your body perspires [...]
I recently shared my shock at discovering that one in six children, in my own state of Nebraska, are considered food insecure. Nationally, more than sixteen million American kids, (under the age of eighteen), are unable to consistently access adequate amounts of nutritious food necessary for a healthy life. Does that not blow your mind?!!? [...]
What does it mean to be food insecure? In simple terms, those who are food insecure have no idea when, or from where, there next meal is coming. They don’t have consistent access to the nutritious food which is necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle. As difficult as things have become in our current economy, [...]
Our family loves to host movie nights with our friends and their families! We especially enjoy when the movie is something that old and young, alike, can enjoy together. Cars 2 fits that description perfectly! Combine that with some great gifts and educational material from Crest and Oral B and you have the makings of [...]
Well, it’s official. It’s winter. We had our first heavy snow, this week, hand-in-hand with the first head colds and sore throats of the season. Dry furnace air and having the house closed up through cold winter months always seems to bring on all the uncomfortable symptoms of the common cold. I have my favorite [...]
You’ve probably seen the TV commercials, just like me. Proactiv has been around for years, now, and testimonials from faces we all recognize make it clear that the results can be pretty amazing. While my issues have never been severe, it seems like flareups always manage to happen at the most inconvenient times and products [...]
I’m sure you all remember that I have been testing Arm and Hammer’s Spinbrush Pro Clean electric toothbrush. After four weeks, using the battery operated toothbrush, I’m sold. As a matter of fact, I went out and bought these toothbrushes for every member of our family. That’s huge! We don’t just spend money on every [...]
As much as I love cooking and baking, my husband enjoys eating what I make. Because of lactose intolerance and digestive problems, that hasn’t been as easy for him over the last few years. Eating the foods he loves most, often results in terrible pain and discomfort, even preventing him from being able to sleep. [...]
