I am always thrilled when I find mom and dad companies that offer organic products that also strive to do something positive for the underprivileged. erbaorganics is no exception. They donate a full 15% of their gross sales from their Baby Body Oil and Baby Body Wash to the WWO, which stands for Worldwide Orphans Foundation. The WWO works with local communities in underdeveloped areas around the world to enrich the lives of orphans through…

Have you ever been to the circus? Not me. Nope. Not once, not ever. Can you believe it? Almost everyone I’ve ever known has been to the circus. Well, the circus is coming to town here and I’ve been given an opportunity to go. Thanks to MomCentral I received tickets for my family and I can’t wait! I’ll be there opening night, hopefully taking lots of pictures. That is if I don’t have to wrestle…

I recently reviewed a sampler of the Little Music Lovers CD Series and we loved it. Most moms have heard that there may be a benefit to playing music and singing for your baby while they are still in utero. I took that advice before my son was born. One of my favorite songs of all time happens to be Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven. I made sure to play it often, and of course I…
Thanks to Progresso I have a new staple in my kitchen. Progresso Panko Crispy Breadcrumbs. Although I’d heard them mentioned a million times on the Food Network I had never actually used them. Last week, thanks to Progresso and MyBlogSpark I received a package containing a box of Panko Breadcrumbs, 1 carton of Progresso low-sodium chicken broth, a measuring cup, slotted spoon, soup ladle and a sheet for baking. I absolutely love to cook but…

As a user of the original Simple Green for more than 17 years I wanted to do a review for a company that I was familiar with. When I noticed Simple Green had a “new” Naturals line I approached them about it and they graciously provided me the opportunity to test the products out. Not All Natural Products Are Created Equal Most of the time when I receive things to review I use the item…
Back in March I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to review a few products from Ecostoreusa. When I did, I absolutely fell in love with their Citrus Spray Cleaner and their Pure Oxygen Whitener. You can read why HERE. Once again I’ve been given the opportunity to review their products and just as last time I found a few that I’m very fond of and will definitely continue to use on a…
A few months ago my son started getting picky about what he would eat. He had moved far beyond pureed foods and was on to eating almost all the same foods that we ate. At first he was all for trying new things, but much to my surprise, out of the blue he decided he didn’t like bland foods anymore. I tried spicing things up a bit but I have to admit that I have…
