Hello friends!
Happy Friday! How was your week? Are you getting used to daylight savings yet? I feel like this has been a REAL struggle for me. Like I want to go to bed at 7pm, but then I also want to wake up late too! I cannot seem to get used to it! Do you have any tricks?
As for me, this week blew by! I went hunting with my husband and his family. Although, we weren’t successful – we didn’t see any elk! I went to a Sprouts Holiday Meat Up with some local bloggers — I’ll share about that soon, and worked flights all over the US — from one coast to the other! It was busy! The crazy part is, I know it will just keep getting busier with the holidays.
Speaking of the holidays, I’ve compiled a few of my favorite things recently! You got to check these items out for some awesome gift ideas!
COOKING: Bamboo Board
I love bamboo products! I rave about my bamboo sheets and clothing, but did you know I also use bamboo in the kitchen? This bamboo cutting board is a very nice product that I have been using for serving up food in my home. I highly recommend this bamboo cutting board because it is thicker and sturdier than you average cutting boards. Bamboo is better for the environment and for your family too – it is antibacterial, antimicrobial and has no toxins (I am talking to you, plastic).
This bamboo kitchen utensil set and bamboo cutting board is a perfect idea for holiday gifts too! This would be great for the new home owner, the student, or the home chef!
Buy this for yourself or as a gift on Amazon ($19.70) or use coupon code “Gift1254” for 20% off at Coolinary Bamboo.
HOUSEHOLD PRODUCT: Molly’s Suds
Molly’s Suds is an all-natural laundry detergent that is safe and eco-responsible. Molly’s Suds has all the dirt fighting power, without the parabens, harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances and dyes! It comes in powder and liquid (new) and makes you laundry routine a breeze!
I really enjoy Molly’s Suds because it is safe and gentle on sensitive skin. I don’t like all the chemicals and toxins that potentially go into my body in various ways – so this laundry detergent is one way I avoid them! Since I wear clothing everyday that touches my skin, I think investing in a quality laundry detergent is key to avoiding toxic and chemicals leaching into my bloodstream!
You can find Molly’s Suds online at Amazon, Target, HSN, BuyBuyBaby, BedBathandBeyond and ThriveMarket.
HEALTH: RESTORE
RESTORE is a liquid supplement that works to increase tight junction function in your gut to promote a healthy internal firewall that helps create a more resilient system by supporting gut health, respiratory wellness, balanced immune function and enhanced mental clarity in the face of environmental factors.
If you have read any of my personal blog posts, you know I have a weak immune system. I have struggled with IBS for years and years. It has been quite the learning process, in which I now know that taking care of my gut is my number one priority. It makes all the difference in my overall health. I have a leaky gut and therefore I must take good care of it – in how I eat and the supplements I take. RESTORE is an awesome supplement because it helps my gut lining by securing and strengthening it. When my gut is happy my whole body follows!
You can find RESTORE in many sizes on Amazon.
TASTY: Yogurtland
Yogurtland is adding 10 colorful new flavors, a new topping and collectible spoons all with the theme of Dreamworks Trolls. The new Trolls inspired flavors include: Poppy’s White Chocolate Raspberry, Branch’s Peanut Butter Caramel, and DJ Suki’s Cranberry Raspberry Tart. This special promotion will be available now through December 21st!
I must say, Yogurtland is my favorite place for fro-yo. My husband and I cherish our Yogurtland outings and always look forward to their new promotions and flavors. This new Troll promotion is just as fun as the rest – and if you like Butterscotch… you gotta get in now and try the limited time Creek’s Butterscotch Pudding Gelato. Add some caramel sauce and chocolate chips for pure mmmmmm…tasty goodness!
OUTDOORS: Pinnacle Gear Hiking Poles
Pinnacle Gear Hiking Poles are perfect for hiking, climbing trails, walking on paths or just around the neighborhood! The handles are ergonomic, made with a high quality plastic material and are 100% waterproof. These poles are lightweight (approximately 10.5 oz. ) and ideal for anyone who wants to decrease the stress on knees and hips because of the anti-shock mechanism that absorbs energy form your upper body and provides stabilization.
I love these poles because they are well prices, lightweight and compactable! They are adjustable which means both my husband and I can use them for hiking. These poles make hiking easier for me, and makes me want to get out and hike more often!
The poles make a great Christmas gift for any active friend or family member! Buy them on Amazon!
