"NoThrow" Review & Giveaway - Ends 9/9

About No Throw (from website):

We are Karla and Karen, twin sisters, from Chicago. When our sons were still babies, we lived within a mile of each other and were able to enjoy taking walks to the park with our children or being able to drop in on each other for a cup of coffee. Early in 2001 Karla and her family moved to Detroit. As a result of Karla's move, we found ourselves traveling back and forth between the two states much more than we ever imagined. During those trips Karla's son Danny kept throwing his bottle around the plane and Karen's son Alex kept throwing his sippy cup all over the car. After one particularly embarrassing flight Karla called Karen and said "there has got to be something out there to stop this embarrassment". That was 8 year ago!

Tropical Traditions Review & Giveaway - Ends 8/28

~Guest Post~

Review by Earth's Delights

About Tropical Traditions

The founders of Tropical Traditions are Brian and Marianita Shilhavy.

Brian W. Shilhavy, BA, MA
Brian earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Bible/Greek from Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, and his Master of Arts degree in linguistics from Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago. He is currently the CEO of Tropical Traditions, Inc., and the Editor of Health Impact News.

Marianita Jader Shilhavy, BS, CND (Certified Nutritionist/Dietician in the Philippines) earned her bachelor of science degree in nutrition in Manila. Understanding the nutrition of Filipino foods, Marianita worked for over eight years as a hospital dietician and nutritional counselor in the Philippines.

In 1998 Brian  and Marianita returned to the Philippines with their three children and renovated Marianita's old family farmhouse. By this time the coconut industry was severely depressed due to the negative U.S. campaigns against tropical oils in the 1980s and 1990s. Coconut farmers could no longer support their families on the income generated from harvesting coconuts.

Tropical Traditions is America’s source for coconut oil. Their Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil is hand crafted in small batches by family producers, and it is the highest quality coconut oil they offer. You can read more about how virgin coconut oil is different from other coconut oils on their website: What is Virgin Coconut Oil?


Tropical Traditions also carries other varieties of affordable high quality coconut oil. Visit their website to check on current sales, to learn about the many uses of coconut oil, and to read about all the advantages of buying coconut oil online. Since the FDA does not want us to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil on a page where it is being sold or given away, here is the best website to read about the health benefits of coconut oil.

My Thoughts:

Wow I never knew how much you can use coconut oil for until I actually searched it.  Coconut oil is not just for cooking, you can use it for so much more!

First thing I used/tried Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil was for cooking.  I decided to give the old fashioned fried chicken a try.  Not only was the fried chicken healthy, the taste was out of this world!!  I then tried the oil for various other reasons.  Poor Louie (my little cat) has an eye infection, so I spoke to his vet about the coconut oil and he said it was a good idea. I dabbed a small bit of the oil onto his tear duct to help clear it.  Louie actually love the taste of the oil, it's sweet, and it seems to be helping with the infection.

If your looking for a great cooking oil,  Tropical Traditions Virgin Coconut Oil is the way to go and the only oil I'll be buying in the future.

Giveaway:

One luck reader will win 1 quart of Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil!  To enter, simply complete the Rafflecopter below.

Good Luck!

My Thoughts:

When I received the Greenies box, my cats (Bodhi & Louie) knew what it was before I did!

I (or should I say they ) received 5 packets of Greenies Smartbites...2 hairball control, healthy skin and fur, digestive care.... and had a very hard time getting them into the cabinet before they could get to them.  As you can tell from the picture above the Smartbites were a very welcome addition.

Both Bodhi and Louie love the Smartbites and I love how they are packed with great ingredients my fur-babies need.  All of us highly recommend Greenies Smartbites to all our feline friends!

Hicural - The New Shape of Hiccup Relief {Review}

From Hicural website: 

"Finally, a serious solution to stop hiccups. Whether you get hiccups occasionally or suffer from them more frequently, you’ve come to the right place to stop them. Because this revolutionary, patent-pending hiccup stick is a must for everyone! You’ll be amazed as will your family and friends with this new fail-safe and simple method that stops hiccups in seconds.

Why try all those silly, half-hazard and messy stunts like standing on your head, holding your breath, swallowing endless amounts of sugar, drinking water upside down or shoving lemons in your mouth? The lists of old wives’ tales are endless. But do they really work? You tell us.

But we’ll tell you, the hiccup stick is more than a home remedy. IT IS THE REMEDY!"

My Thoughts:

You can tell from my picture above, I received my Hicural on July 30th and finally today someone in the house had the hiccups. As it turned out, it was me that had them, which is really rare!

All you do is place the hiccup stick in your mouth, gently bite down and drink water. Really it is that simple and I was totally surprised at how well it worked and the water didn't drip all over me.

Hicural is a must have for all families and you can purchase yours at their website.

Eraselet Review & Giveaway - Ends 8/15

How many times have your children lost their eraser? How many pencils are lying around your house with little or no eraser? How many children love to wear bracelets? Now, there's a solution! Eraselets provide a fun, fashionable, and functional way for children to wear their eraser, like a bracelet. Eraselets are the world's first bracelet eraser, invented by Bryan Ricci, because his youngest daughter kept losing her erasers. "I'm going to tie an eraser around your wrist" he said. Then he thought, "why not create a rubber bracelet that functions as an eraser? An Eraselet!" He then gathered his resources, found a manufacturer, and the rest is modern history.  Learn more about the owners and how being homeless inspired them HERE.

Battery Night Lights with Motion Sensors

Stick Anywhere LED Night Lights turn on brightly when motion is detected. No wiring required. LED never needs replaced. Simply insert batteries and attach sensor night light to any surface inside and outside of the home. Light sensor night lights are great for lighting your hallways, bathrooms, bedrooms, and more!

The light was very easy to put up. I put the batteries in and the light comes with a sticky tape or screws. I put mine up with the sticky tape. I put one of the lights in my back door entry way because there is no light by the door and it was always hard to unlock the door. Now the light helps out to see the door knob. I now can get in my house with out trying to the key hole in the dark. This was very simple and easy to put up. I gave one of the lights to my mom to put in her bathroom so she don't have to blind her self by turning on the bathroom light. The only bad thing for my mom is that her cats love playing with the sensor on the light by making the light go on threw out the night lol.

The light really works. You can see the door know & dead bolt with no problem. I love it!

Now for the giveaway: 


One lucky person will win a $25 Gift Card to Mr. Beams (free shipping is only offered in the US). This is open to US & WW and ends 8/15/12 @ 11:59 pm est.
