**CLOSED** Organic Liquid Foam Soap { Review and Giveaway }

I'm a big fan of the Tropical Traditions. I received the Liquid Foaming Soap in Lavendar for this review. The kids love to wash their hands in foaming soap, definitely making it easier to wash. Tropical Traditions also sell them in unscented or tea tree. I brought the 32 oz refills in unscented version, too. Handwashing is the best prevention of getting sick. "Wash them for at least 15 seconds, please. Make sure you make a lot of bubbles." I'm always nagging at my kids about it and reminding hubby to do the same.


Ingredients: saponified organic virgin coconut oil and organic essential oils of lavendar
All Natural. Organic. It just doesn't get much better than that! Well, maybe if I can eat it....

Buy it: The Liquid Foaming Soap is on sale now for $8.50. Retail value of $9.50. You can get a free book, Virgin Coconut Oil, when you use my referral numbers (5253786) on your first online order.

TRULY SEAMLESS Completely free of seams, our patented product is knit like a cocoon, starting from the toe up, providing comfort and relief to children who struggle with “bumps & lumps” in their socks. UNIQUE NO HEEL DESIGN “No heel” design allows children to put on socks with confidence and keeps little feet from outgrowing their socks so quickly. “HUGS” LITTLE FEET Stretchy Corespun and Lycra yarns result in a form-fitting design that “hug” little feet and help eliminate wrinkling and bunching. NON-BINDING Non-binding Halo Top™ fits comfortably without slipping down the leg. Regular socks often have elastic bands at the tops of the sock that can often pinch, bind or be a source of irritation. NO “STINKY FEET” High-tech fibers wick moisture away helping ensure a drier and more hygienic sock environment. Antimicrobial benefits help prevent “stinky feet”. SmartKnitKIDS Socks is truely unique! There were so many times my 2 older kids complain, especially when we're rushing out the door, that their sock didn't feel right. "Scratchy", they would say or would just whine about the uncomfortableness until the socks are fixed. "Tantrum" is the best word and then frustration comes! I used to have to make sure the regular socks align just right. SmartKnitKIDS are smart. It's definitely make putting on Bubbie and Baby Girls' socks a lot easier now!

Core-Spun by Therafirm Support Socks Review

I remember back when I was working in the Adult Cardiac Medical Surgical unit, I would have to put on (and off) support socks similar to these Anti-embolism stockings. Brings me back when I first did nursing! That was over a decade ago! Therafirm Support Socks have different level of support for your needs and also different types of hoisery for your style and comfort. I wore the Core-Spun light support to work one night (got sick after that). It's just what I need for working my 12-hours night shift! It was very comfortable and felt like any other cotton socks but much softer and better support for my tired legs! It also fit me better than the Core-Spun Silver medium support (that I wore around the house). The stocking was a little tighter due to the level of support. It was a 15-20mmHg support vs 10-15 mmHg. The length of the footing a little longer but it still was comfortable to wear. Therafirm carries women & men's trouser socks, womens' knee-high stockings (also with open toes), women & men's pantyhose, Maternity pantyhose, Opaque Tights, and Anklet socks Who can benefit from wearing gradient compression hosiery? • Chronic venous insufficiency • Venous stasis ulcerations • PTS • Schlerotherapy • Expectant mothers • Tired, aching, fatigued legs • Swollen feet, ankles, and legs • Mild to severe varicose veins • Stand or sit for long periods • Overweight • Family history of venous leg disorders • Lymphedema You should consult your health care provider to see if gradient compression hoisery is right for you! Choosing Your Support Level 10-15mmHg Light Support Light Support Designed to Help: – energize tired legs and feet – improve circulation – assist in the prevention of swelling and varicose veins 15-20mmHg Mild Support Mild Support Designed to Help Relieve: – tired, aching, fatigued legs – minor ankle and leg swelling – minor varicosities – minor varicosities during pregnancy 20-30mmHg Moderate Support Moderate Support Designed to Help Relieve: – moderate ankle and leg swelling – moderate varicosities – post-schlerotherapy applications 30-40mmHg Firm Support Firm Support Designed to Help Relieve: – moderate to severe ankle and leg swelling – moderate to severe varicosities – lymphedema The company actually has an office located right here in Kansas City, Kansas! Next week I'll be doing a giveaway for the SmartKnitKIDS Socks from the same company. Buy It: There are 4 online or shop at a local retailers here. If you buy the Therafirm Light Red Hot Sock, a portion of the proceeds go to heart health research. Thank you Therafirm for letting me do a review. I received the Core-Spun light & medium and the new Red Hot Therafirm Light at no-cost.

Sick But Now Better...

I've been sick all last week! My flu shot AND mist didn't help me avoid getting sick this year. I haven't been sick this bad...Gosh, maybe, since college! Been having the chills and headache with COUGHING fits. I'm feeling better today with a little coughing. Poor Bubbie has the same cough and chills but he's been sooo congested. The only medications he gets is tylenol for his achiness. He does pretty good, considering. He perks up after taking his meds, sometimes refusing it until bribery comes in! Sissy is the worst when she is sick. She's actually been a little whining this weekend but she's fine if she is outside playing. She wanted to stay up last night because she felt lonely. She didn't want to sleep by herself. I'm always a sucker when she starts crying about being sad, so I left her stay until about 10PM then I made her go to bed. I told her no excuse when getting ready for school and she uphold her promise. Baby Girl has actually avoid getting sick so far...**fingers crossed**

**CLOSED** AntiMonkey Butt Powder { Review and Giveaway }

Congrats to Dina!

Anti-Monkey Butt Powder is a product, invented by motocross riders, designed to treat friction and irritation that can result from excess sweat. Unlike other powders, Anti-Monkey Butt Powder has calamine and talc which gives it a cooling sensation instead of the burning that you might get from other products. "It is ideal for butt busting activities such as truck driving, motorcycling, bicycling, horse back riding, and extreme sports. May also be applied inside footwear, under sports pads, and other areas prone to chafing." Definitely horseback riding! I experienced chaffing when we were in our honeymoon some 9+yrs ago. I thought it would be a relaxing experience but the guide made the horse gallop and run! Thank goodness, it was on our last day. Anti-Monkey Butt Powder would have come in handy!
I have never even heard about this Anti-Monkey Butt, if I wasn't doing a review for it. I was informed that this was a popular gag gift. Anti-Monkey Butt also has a new Lady Anti-Monkey Butt to absorb sweat and provide cooling effective relief of irritation on the inner thighs and other areas of the skin prone to rubbing.







Buy it: Retail for $5.95 + shipping at their online site or at your local retailers.
Win it: Mandatory entry: Tell me what type of activites you do that would require the Anti-Monkey Butt Powder. Mine is sitting at the computer desk too long !
