Probar Fruition Review & Giveaway

I have to say, I have tried my share of “healthy” bars and snacks in my day. Yuk. Most are so dry and just taste like sticks and vitamins. So I was a bit hesitant when I received the latest addition to the PROBAR family called Fruition, to try out.

Fruition is a fruit-based gluten-free snack bar that is designed to be satisfying on-the-go without the extra fat and calories. It is a blend of dates, gluten-free raw oats, chia seeds and cashews in 6 real fruit flavors! Every product made by PROBAR is 100% vegan, certified organic, certified non-GMO and raw.

The taste test:

WOW!! PROBAR’s Fruition has completely changed my thinking about “health bars”! I actually have developed a slight addiction to them! The texture is amazing, it’s so chewy and moist. Regardless of the flavor, every bar has a fruity, nutty taste that almost reminds me of a fruit leather. Just delicious! I really cannot say that I liked one flavor better than another, I truly loved them all! It’s no wonder that PROBAR has been the recipient of numerous national magazine and industry awards for healthiest and most delicious packaged food!

The PROBAR Fruition comes in 6 amazing flavors: Chocolate Orange, Lemon, Cherry, Strawberry, Blueberry, Peach and Cran-Raspberry

Ray’s of Colorado Product Review

I have such a weakness for great quality, all natural bath and body products! I recently had the amazing opportunity to try products from Ray’s of Colorado! Ray’s of Colorado pride themselves on providing their customers with the finest natural soaps, lotions, and bath products. They also sell herbal relaxation sachets, lip balms, linen spray and more, all made with the highest quality, all-natural ingredients.

I received three of Ray’s of Colorado’s amazing products to try including:

Lavender Fields Goat Milk and Honey Lotion with Shea Butter, which was my absolute favorite. The lotion’s fragrance was light and so fresh. It made my skin feel like silk. The lotion went on very nicely and absorbed quickly. Ray’s of Colorado Goat Milk and Honey Lotion contains goat’s milk extract, honey and shea butter. Goat’s milk is high in protein, triglycerides, Vitamin A, B6, B12 and E making it an excellent natural moisturizer that helps hydrate and nourish skin. Honey is a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Shea butter is well known for its moisturizing properties. The combination of these three ingredients produce the finest quality lotion. Available scents include Lavender Fields, Colorado Coconut and Fragrance Free. This lotion comes in a 4 oz bottle and sells for $9.00.

Next I tried Ray’s of Colorado Dead Sea Salt Scrub in Coconut Lime scent. This scrub is perfect for moisturizing, exfoliating and hydrating the skin. It was extremely moisturizing, almost like an in-shower body lotion. It made my skin super soft, even my dry heels felt amazing after using this product. The scent was light and I loved the coconut lime aroma filling my shower, it smelled like a tropical paradise! Ingredients include Coconut Oil, Dead Sea Salt, Fragrance Oil, Glycerin, Palm Oil & Stearic Acid. The Dead Sea Salt Scrub comes in a 4oz jar and sells for $9.95. Available in coconut lime or unscented.

Lastly I tried Ray’s of Colorado Peppermint Tea Tree Foot Spray. This was my husband’s personal favorite and I loved it too. This foot spray is a treat for feet bound in heavy shoes during the winter or going bare in the summer. Spritz liberally anytime of day for a quick, refreshing pick me up. Peppermint oil cools the skin and enhances circulation, while eucalyptus and chamomile soften rough soles and tea tree oil fights bacteria. Ingredients include witch hazel, 100% certified peppermint eucalyptus and tea tree essential oil, infused chamomile and eucalyptus, glycerin, polysorbate 20, potassium sorbate and distilled water to produce a delightful refreshing aroma that helps fight stinky feet. I despise when my feet feel hot and this foot spray has a wonderful cooling affect! The Peppermint Tea Tree Foot Spray comes in a 4 oz spray bottle and sells for $6.00.

Be sure to check out the Ray’s of Colorado website at www.raysofcolorado.com for their line of amazing must have all-natural products. And be sure to check back often for their all new formulas that will be available shortly. Ray’s of Colorado also welcome wholesale and custom orders. Check them out today!

Prince Edward Island Preserve Company Preserves Review

Everything in Good Taste, that is the motto at Prince Edward Island Preserve Company. PEI Preserve Company is located in New Glasgow, Prince Edward Island, Canada. The Prince Edward Island Preserve Company is an purveyor of fine preserves, teas, & teaware, as well as, hosting a beautiful seasonal waterside restaurant. Bruce & Shirley MacNaughton, the owner’s of PEI Preserve Company, say “Since 1984 we have had the pleasure of meeting people from all over the world and it is very rewarding for all of us to have a little taste of Prince Edward Island travel from our home to yours. We wish you and yours all the best”.

To my delight, I was recently given the opportunity to try some PEI Preserve Company’s delicious preserves and loose leaf teas. After a sampling, I could truly taste that PEI Preserve Company put their heart and soul into the products they offer.

 I received a beautiful gift set of three small jars of preserves and two small bags of loose leaf tea. I truly had a difficult time deciding which of the preserves was my favorite because they were all so heavenly!  PEI Preserve Company creates preserves on-site made with only the finest & freshest fruits with no added preservatives.

WILD BLUEBERRY & RASPBERRY
Adding two of the world’s
most favorite flavors together and adding
Champagne to compliment is ambrosia in a jar.
Texture: Smooth

STRAWBERRY & GRAND MARNIER
Using only Prince Edward Island
Strawberries we have created an intense
Strawberry flavored product
complimented by the addition of
Grand Marnier. Texture: Smooth

VERY BERRY CHERRY (if I had to pick, this would be my favorite)
Combining Strawberries,
Raspberries, Cherries, and Wild Blueberries we have
created a flavor that is delicious and unique.
Great topping as well as preserve.
Texture: Loose/ Smooth

The teas are equally wonderful! I enjoy drinking almost any kind of tea, be it cold or hot, black, green, or flavored. It had been a while since I had prepared myself loose leaf tea; the experience and the wonderful PEI Preserve Company’s teas really made my day so much better. Their teas are simply delicious!

JAPANESE GREENBERRY
Japanese green sencha tea flavored with
essences of strawberries & raspberries.

TEA HILL STRAWBERRY
Ceylon black tea, essence of strawberry,
strawberry leaves.

I am overall, above and beyond impressed by Prince Edward Island Preserves Company’s preserves and teas, each product was fantastic. More so, I am impressed by the commitment to excellence displayed by Bruce & Shirley MacNaughton. Not only do they have a riverside restaurant, gift shop, and on-site gardens but through donations of either products, services or finances they support over 40 groups and organizations on Prince Edward Island!

If there is one thing that is a disappointment to me, it is that I don’t live closer to be able to visit PEI Preserves Company myself :)

If you would like to learn more about Prince Edward Island Preserves Company, visit them on Facebook, Twitter or at their website! Also to see the full line of preserves, teas, and gift sets check out the online catalog HERE.

AquaNotes Review & Giveaway!

If you are anything like me, the only quiet time I get is while I am in the shower. A good 10 minutes that I spend thinking of all the important things I need to do or pick up on my next shopping trip. Yes, I forget all those “to dos” by the time I finish dressing and am ready to go. Well, let me tell you about a super cool product I was recently given the awesome opportunity to review! It’s called AuqaNotes!

AquaNotes® - Waterproof Notepad for Writing in Water.  Waterproof paper

AquaNotes® are made of waterproof paper that is totally recyclable, environmentally friendly, and non-toxic. Each pencil is water resistant and is made with Incense Cedar wood, a responsibly harvested renewable resource meeting stringent environmental requirements. Even the ink used to print the logo and company information on the notepad is soy based.

The product is designed to withstand exposure to wet environments. Water simply beads up and rolls off AquaNotes. Each 3.5 by 5.25 inch pad has 40 sheets of paper and each sheet is perforated for easy removal. AquaNotes easily and quickly attaches to any smooth surface with two suction cups that are secured with a stem-based cap. Pencils are secured with a suction cup pencil holder that provides convenient access whenever the need arises to write down an idea while you’re in the shower.
I can not tell you how much I love this product. Just stick the suctioned pad and pencil to your shower wall and voila, a place to jot down your most important notes while you are in the shower or bath! No more soggy, illegible notes or forgotten thoughts!
While in the shower, I always think of all the things I need to do for the day, pick up cereal, pay the water bill, or my brother’s birthday, but by the time I am dressed, I have forgotten it all! AquaNotes even allowed me to write notes to my husband who showers way earlier than myself in the morning. My kids loved drawing pictures for Mom and Dad as well. You could even write the lyrics to you favorite singing in the shower song! All of these notes are easily pulled from the pad and stuck to the fridge, placed in my purse or next to my calendar for easy access, completely dry and in one sturdy piece.

The idea for waterproof notepads came from a Shower Thinker who always generated his best ideas and insights in the tranquility and solitude of a nice warm shower.

AquaNotes® and Aqua LoveNotes® are products of Calmar Consulting Corporation.

He began keeping a standard notepad and pencil outside his shower door to capture those ideas. Invariably, they ended up soggy, torn, and oftentimes illegible before he could get them back to his office. He experimented with a variety of waterproof writing apparatuses before his idea evolved into AquaNotes®….a waterproof note pad with paper that could easily be removed from the pad and taken with him to the office or on an errand.

The development of AquaNotes® made this Shower Thinker’s life more complete. But, after marrying, a new necessity arose…the need to have a special water-proof notepad on which to leave love notes in the shower for his wonderful bride. That’s when Aqua LoveNotes®was created.

If you want to try AquaNotes for yourself check out My AquaNotes.com. You can purchase AquaNotes® Waterproof Notepad for $7.00, AquaNotes® Waterproof Notepad (5 Pack) for $28.00, Aqua LoveNotes® Waterproof Notepad for $7.50, Aqua FunNotes® Waterproof Notepad for $7.00, Aqua LoveNotes® Waterproof Notepad (5 pack) for $30.00, Aqua FunNotes® Waterproof Notepad FunMaze for $7.00 or any accessories you may need.  Such a great product that makes life easier!
