Mom deserves the world

Mother's day will soon be here and what do you get for the woman who gave you life? The one person who loved you first and will always be in your corner?? Yea, I ask myself the same question, year after year. I just do not know what to get. My mom deserves the world, and my grandma too.... Unfortunately I just cant afford the world. I wish though, however, I can take their favorite photo of my kids and put in a Beautiful Canvas Print! Canvas Pop is no doubt the only choice in printing companies. Canvas Pop is my go to for Canvas Prints and Framed Prints! I love the quality of the photos and the frames are incredible. They are strong, and well made!

Canvas pop has a few locations, They print in the US and in London and their head office is located in Canada. So worldwide they are rocking it! Making Moms and other customers happy world wide! They have printed over 450,000 canvas prints! You have got to check out their site! Like right now!

As a mom myself, and a mom who is obsessed with her pictures, canvas prints are my favorite! I love to see my family photos hanging on my walls in such a simple and elegant beautiful form! I think they add such a level of class to any room. They go well with any decor. Canvas pop has so many options to choose from!! You can frame it! You can have it printed in black and white. even how thick you want the canvas!

You can get your picture printed on a throw pillow too! Canvas Pop has such a huge selection of gifts for mom and all the other moms in your life! But why should you give your mom a gift like this? aside from the woman has given you everything ? Because it is personal! It is unique and special. It is something that will give your mom a gift for year to come. Rather it be an old photo of you and mom when you where little, or a photo of you and your family now! This is the best best gift I could ever recieve!! For mother's day instead of taking a photo and texting it to her get started with canvas pop and give mom an incredible canvas print!

Meal Planning and Grocery Shopping!!

I am really making an honest attempt go grocery shopping and not buy half of the snack aisle! This is almost impossible every time we go grocery shopping, I find that I have left with only half of what I need on my grocery list and I have spent double what I would have had I just stuck to my list!! 

Here is my real problem though, I do not plan meals. I usually find myself in the grocery store on tuesday night planning my meals in the middle of the aisles! After the shopping trip I decided enough is enough!! We are spending way to much on groceries! 

So being the pinterest fiend I am I found these!!

This awesome meal planner

and this great shopping list!


hopefully this will help you, and me! Wish me luck!!

Turn Gram Review

I live 1400 miles away from my family, and we video chat all the time but I always want to print pictures and send them to my son Oma and Pop-pop and great grandparents,but I either forget to have them printed. So typically I just stick to sharing them on social media. What Turn Gram is, it is a monthly subscription you can purchase, they will go to your instagram and select, edit, print and send your pictures to those of your choosing. You can do 1 photo a month or 5 photos a month. You get to basically tell them what you want.

This is what I stated that I wanted...

I want Pictures of my children and my family. I DO NOT want photos of food, products, memes, follow loops, and selfies of just myself. pictures of motorcycles and my friends are acceptable as well

I suppose I should have stated I just do not want any selfies.... because this is what I got. Now I can not really complain because it is not just a selfie of me, however it only has the top of my sons head. So I am really not to pleased.

This post is not something I am to excited to do. I was really super excited to do this review at first but now I am just not super pleased. Turn Gram is not a terrible service, The idea is actually fantastic, but I think the huge down fall is that you do not get to pick what photos you want printed. You can tell them what you do not want but in the end it is really up to turn gram what you get.

I always reccomend that you give something a try and not rely solely on my opinions because they can differ from your own opinions! I really hope that throughout this six month subscription, I will get better photos, ones that I could send to my family back home.

Body Lotion so Good it is Sacred!

For a lot of my life I have lived with aches and pains, back pains mostly. A bad back, bad knees, over weight, flat feet, none of this is helpful in easing pain. Also having my son did not help my pain any. over the years I have learned to just push through it, However I am always looking out for new products to help ease my pain and make the day more bearable. 

I try to avoid taking Ibuprofen, Aleve and other pills to help with my pain just because I really try to aim for a more natural method. Something that will not be harsh on my body and possible give my liver a break!

I have found a company called Sacred. they create Hemp Oil infused products, along with essential Oils and other natural oils great for skin! These are great! I typically would turn to a certain cold/hot roll on product, but my skin has become super sensitive over the last few years and those other products make my skin feel like its on fire! But not with Sacred. They last a lot longer than those other products, and since they are primarily oil based they do not absorb into the skin as quick! Which is great, it gives you a long lasting effect and goes such a long way. Since it does not absorb as quickly, you use less product and it goes so much further!  They have quite the selection of pain relief balms and lotions! 

For this review I was also provided with a Salt Soak. I was provided with the Original Formula. Let me tell you. Fill your bathtub up with warm water, use half the container, and relax this stuff is incredible! I Used it in my bath before bed, and afterwards I laid down in my bed and snuggled up next to my husband and I am pretty sure I may have briefly died last night. I was so relaxed and so content with my body not being in so much pain i just slipped into a peaceful sleep. 

The ingredients on both products are super simple. Sacred tells you exactly what is each of their products. I really think that is a bonus in any company. If it has 10 thousand names I cant even pronounce I am weary of using it at all, but with sacred they keep it super simple! 

In addition to using all natural ingredients, the products are not tested on animals and all made right here in the USA! What makes this company even better is that 10% of all sales are donated to preventing and curing breast cancer! That is something special in my book!


Don't just take my word for it! Try it! go to https://www.hempsacred.com/ and give it a spin! I really loved working with this company!

Blu Apple Review and Giveaway!!

I work long ten hour days, three to four days a week. So I take these giant salads to work with me so that I can have something all day long. My weeks are kind of odd because me and D2 get paid in the same week, so we shop twice in one week, which makes keeping veggies and fruits good for longer than three or four days is rough. I can not stand brown lettuce. ICK!!! I partnered with blu apple in a review to help save my fruits and veggies!!

Some quick science behind blu apple.

Ethylene Gas is given off by all living plants, especially when it comes to Fruits, Veggies and Flowers. The release of this gas is thought to cause the ripening process. When you store these fruits and veggies in the fridge it speeds up the ripening process even quicker. Which sucks, because your fruits and veggies are not cheap. 

Blu Apple helps absorb and neutralize that ethylene gas in turn making your fruits and veggies last two to three times longer! Each Apple contains a packet of NON TOXIC pellets, each packet lasts three months, and after three months you can actually open up the packet of pellets and use them for fertilizer in houseplants or your garden!! 

Blu apple also creates another product called veggie zips, food storage bags used to control humidity for perfect types of fruits and veggies!! VeggieZips are vented with the patent-pending U-Vent technology, which allows fresh air in and helps the ethylene gas escape through the small flaps that cover the bag. Each bag comes with a HydroLiner, which is a soft, cloth-like towel that can be used wet, dry, or not at all depending on the needs of the produce. When storing produce that needs additional moisture to stay fresh, like lettuce, cilantro, or green onions, dampen the HydroLiner, gently wrap the HydroLiner around the produce, place in the VeggieZips bag, store in the refrigerator, and re-dampen the HydroLiner as necessary. If you are storing produce that needs excess moisture absorbed, like mushrooms, berries, and cauliflower, wrap the produce in a dry HydroLiner, place in the VeggieZips bag, and store in the refrigerator. There are some produce types that do not need excess moisture added or absorbed, like peppers, eggplant, and nectarines. With these, just place the produce inside a VeggieZips bag without a HydroLiner and store in your refrigerator

If you visit Blu Apple you can find some nifty Storage Tips

 As you can see the apple itself is not very big so it does not take up to much space. So I stuck this apple in my fridge almost two weeks ago. Let me tell you this little apple is going to save me a ton of money! that head of lettuce there was an extra one I had purchased as my experiment.....Below you can see it is still beautifully green, I checked it over not one single brown Spot! Thank you blu apple!!

Blu Apple was kind enough to sponsor a giveaway as well! Three (Yes I said Three ) Lucky winners will receive a two pack of blue apple and a box of veggie zips and liners!! 

So lets get to it then!!

Buncha Farmers review and giveaway!

So you have this adorable white shirt, and you love this shirt. Naturally because you are wearing white you will stain it. That is just how it goes, You never spill anything on that black shirt, but that white one you will, because opposites attract. The other day I was applying my Charcoal face mask while I was wearing my white shirt. It is funny because before I started to open my face mask,  I thought to myself  I should take my white shirt off. Then my second thought was I never spill my face mask. It is like liquid gold, it will be fine...... By now you probably get where I am going with this. So it happened. My charcoal face mask is now on my favorite white shirt that I can no longer wear in public because it now has two dark grey splotches. Charcoal stains everything so why would it ever wash out of a white shirt. Then Like a Beacon of hope, UPS Shows up with this glorious package from Buncha Farmers! Inside is two of everything. One for me to try and one for you to win!! Yes a giveaway coming! Keep yourself Posted!

This stain stick is pretty simple to use.
1. Wet the stick
2. rub on stain
3. wash as normal
the ingredients of the stick are pretty simple, and it has an essential oil in it, So that is a win for me! So after washing with Buncha Farmers Laundry Detergent, it is gone!

 The laundry detergent has super simple ingredients too! one container will get you 50 loads of laundry. I know that does not seem like much, but to me that is. So typically one small bottle of the small child's old laundry detergent would last us maybe two weeks, 50 loads of laundry is quite a bit for us. The laundry soap comes with a teaspoon scoop for you to measure it out with. Their products have Biodegradable and all natural ingredients!

Buncha Farmers makes more than laundry detergent and stain removers though. 

Lip Balms, Soaps and Skin Creams Too!! 

I have not quite had the chance to check out their soaps, and sadly I did not get any skin creams to try, but I have been making wonderful use of one of the lip balms they sent! I LOVE IT! So making use of honey in my house is a huge thing! I use it in more than just my tea! I use it for cooking, for colds, if you think it up I have probably used it for that reason. I was not to sure what Manuka Honey was, but I looked in to it and I am intrigued by it. Manuka Honey is produced in New Zealand to pollinate the Native Manuka bush. Manuka Hone is used for medicinal purposes more than anything. It is used for treating infections and other conditions.

So now it is my favorite part of the post!!!
