You know when you are using a product that makes what you already enjoy, ten times better.. you stop to think, Why wasn't I using this product all along, it makes my life so much better moment?
When it comes to a product you may never have purchased for yourself.
Recently I received Ozeri's Frother. The Frothers handle fits perfectly into the palm of my hand as if it was made just for me.
Every day I have tea, sometimes coffee, and a latte. I own a coffee machine that grinds, and brews fresh coffee beans all in one. I never thought hey! I need a frother. But when given the opportunity to review one, I figured why not.
Let me just start off saying, this is more than just a Frother. It comes with 4 attachments. 2 are Frothers, 1 a drink mixer, and the other an egg beater.
I honestly use the frother attachment the most. I love it to froth milk, for my coffees, and even my teas.
It's my teas that I use it more often for, almost 4x a day. I have an electric kettle, that I use to make different types of tea depending on my mood. Sometimes Green, sometimes Chai, then at night I do Night time Tea with Chamomile, and peppermint. I add honey to the hot water after the tea has steeped, and then add stevia powder sugar too. I use the frother to mix the honey, sugar, and milk with the tea.
The Ozeri Frother blends the tea perfectly together, no spoon can do what this does in just seconds.
Where has it been all my life? Why did I not own one before. The tea just tastes better!! Everything is just perfectly blended together. The best part.. I didn't have to do anything really, just hold the frother up right, and let it mix.
When I hold it exactly in the middle of the cup, it makes it's own whirlpool in the center.
I truly believe this is one of the perfect gifts to give someone that likes tea, lattes, and mixed drinks. You can find my review for the Ozeri Frother on Amazon.

Ozeri CardioTech Pro Series Digital Blood Pressure Monitor #Review.
The Ozeri Pro Series Digital Blood Pressure Monitor was extremely easy to set up, and use. The price is also reasonable. If you know some one that should be monitoring their heart rate, and blood pressure this is the Gift that has purpose, to monitor health.
It comes with a hard plastic case for storage.
The monitor itself is voice guided, it tells you how high to hold your arm. It has to be aligned with your heart. If you are off, it tells you to move your arm. It will not read unless it is where it has to be for a proper reading. Which makes it more accurate.
My husbands reading was 131/77,
Mine was 129/57.
Check out Ozeri CardioTech Pro Series Digital Blood Pressure Monitor on Amazon. There are always great deals for Ozeri products on Amazon.

Plan Toys Wooden Toys #Review. #HolidayGiftGuide
PlanToys has some of the cutest, educational, recycled wood from expired rubber wood tree toys we have had the honor of reviewing. Not only are the Wooden Toys, fun, but they are also educational along with playful colors, and activities.
The first Educational Wooden Toy my little one wanted to play with (Yes he saw the boxes, and immediately wanted to play with them.) was the Stacking Wooden Bear. What I found unique about this toy was that each stacking circle piece, had a different shape wooden piece inside too. It's like a puzzle instead of a puzzle.
Once put together, the Stacking Bear Wooden Toy looks like this.
Then we played with the My Mood Memo. What is different about this wooden toy is the vast face/emotion shapes that come with it. Also an Emotion Color wheel. It is helping a lot to show my Sy his different emotions, and expressions.
Like this one, He was upset that I would not let him climb the TV, so I showed him what the angry one expressed. He is learning, which makes me happy. He has sensory problems, and toys like these mean a lot to us. He is great at figuring things out in front of him.
For over 30 years, PlanToys® has been recycling the wood from expired rubber wood trees to create beautiful wooden toys that inspire children’s imaginations and promote a commitment to sustainable play for generations to come.

Allens Beans, and Vegetable Coupon!! Printable!! Get yours #Coupon #ExtremeCouponing
My family likes to substitute beans for meat, I also like to put Veggies, and Beans into my Rice as a meal. We rarely ever eat Red Meat. So meals like this with canned beans (We just drain them, wash them off, and add to our meals. I'm a believer in you can turn anything into an awesome meal.) Plus this time of the year, we all need a little good luck where I live. The roads are Icy, snows falling, and the negative windchill sets in. Bring on the Luck!
The practice of eating “good luck” foods is commonly observed throughout the South and around the country as a fun superstition. Traditions vary from culture to culture, but there are striking similarities in what's consumed throughout the United States. Specifically, however, the blackeyed peas are thought to bring prosperity, especially when served with collard greens and other greens variations –which are thought to bring wealth and money. This time of year puts a relevant slant on vegetables and the campaign, encouraging families to eat better, eat as a family and to hopefully gain some good luck along the way.
Allens, a company based in Arkansas, offers a range of “good luck” vegetables and recipes enlisting good luck vegetables for good luck planning. Consumers are invited to visit Allens.com recipes as well as more information on better eating, overall.

Tired of Leftovers?! Check out my Tandoor Chef Review & #Giveaway for Authentic Indian Cuisine.
I know there's a bazillion ways to prepare leftover Thanksgiving Turkey, and side dishes, but I get sick of eating the same kind of thing, all the time. Plus, I like to spend time with my family, not hours in the kitchen cooking.
My local Giant Eagle carries Tandoor Chef prepackaged Indian Cuisine. I decided to try the
Chicken Tikka Masala with Cumin-Infused Basmati Rice,
and the Chicken Curry with Seasoned Basmati Rice.
The sauces are all Authentic in seasoning, and the chicken was moist, from soaking up the seasoning. Also, the rice was just right! I can't stand overly cooked, mooshy microwaveable rice. This rice did not do that, at all.
Here are the Tandoor Chef meals right after they come out the Microwave. I split each in 1/2 to have a nice little buffet with the Hubby. If you are craving something different, and don't feel like eating out, or cooking, you should really check out TANDOOR CHEF.
Tandoor Chef makes appetizers, naan, and meals. Some are Veg, and even Gluten Free.

LeapPad Ultra Review! Sy loves it.
LeapFrog LeapPad Ultra Kids' Learning Tablet, Green (Toy)
Absolutely love our LeapPad Ultra. We received ours a day before a storm knocked power out, and I was beyond glad that we had purchased 3 series of Backyardigan episodes. We also like the preloaded pet games, and draw pad. I can't wait til he gets older, and this grows with him. Connecting the wifi was easy, and Youtube loads fast. The picture app has some fun things to do too.
From the moment it arrived, my Son was intrigued with the Leap Frog Ultra. I wasn't even allowed to touch the box. He was too busy reading it.

Doesn't he make the cutest bear cub EVER!? This is one of the pre-loaded apps with the built in camera. There are two cameras. One in front, and one behind. Other critters to change yourself into.
Go read the specs, and find out more about The LeapPad Ultra by going here to Amazon, Lots of great Black Friday Deals going on!
All that matters is if he likes it, and he really does enjoy the New LeapPad Ultra.
Oh, I also wanted to mention, he has thrown it during numerous Melt downs, and so far, so good. Maybe it's built Sy tough.

Make the Switch To JENNIE-O Oven Ready Whole Turkey , The Better Alternative for Socialites, minus the time to prepare, but still the same great moist, plump, white meat.
I am a huge fan of Jennie-O Turkey. In my experience Jennie-O has always been delicious. Even my picky 2 year old likes it. We are just a family of 3, so we don't need a huge Thanksgiving meal, but just one that we can be more thankful for, and spend time together, instead of sweating it out in the kitchen.
Have you seen Jennie-O's Whole Turkey Oven Ready Birds? You literally just take the frozen bird out of the bag, and bake it. No digging your hands into holes, you fear like prepping other birds. If you don't feel like baking, There are even Jennie-O fully cooked Turkey Breasts. I found these in the Bakery Section next to the Rotisserie Chicken to go. While the Whole Turkey were in the Frozen Turkey Section. Both are more than enough for a family of my size.
Jennie-O Says,
Thanksgiving dinner preparation can be overwhelming –even for a seasoned cook. If you’re new to the world of Thanksgiving entertaining, turkey preparation can be the most daunting task of all. From thawing and cleaning to seasoning, preparing the turkey can be a time-consuming and messy process. With a house full of invited guests and six or more other dishes to prepare, who has that kind of time?
A recent study,conducted by Harris Interactive, showed nearly 1/3 of Thanksgiving hosts spend 2 hours or fewer socializing with guests on the big day (is that even enough time to eat?). Furthermore, 27% devote 8 hours or more just to cooking.
This infographic provides a snapshot of America’s time-stressed holiday preparation.
For busy women (and men!) assigned the task of preparing the Thanksgiving turkey, especially those who are newly married, first-time hosts, juggling work and home, hosting extended family, or have small children tugging at their apron strings, there is a delicious and easy alternative. JENNIE-O® OVEN READY™ Whole Turkey is a foolproof shortcut that takes turkey from Freezer to Oven to Perfect!™
Step 1: Remove the outer wrapping.
Step 2: Place the frozen turkey in a pan in the oven.
Step 3: Roast, cut and serve.
This juicy, tender turkey never disappoints because Jennie-O has done everything for you. JENNIE-O® OVEN READY™ is the only turkey that goes directly from freezer to oven with no thawing, easy clean up and no worries. Jennie-O helps hosts to serve a flavorful Thanksgiving turkey without the stress or mess, giving time-strapped entertainers more time to give thanks this season.

More than just a princess.
Girls to build the spaceships!
I love the concept behind GoldieBlox, and better toys. I was lucky that my mom embraced whatever toy I wanted, and didn't name things boy/girls.
The video is catchy, and I am a little disappointed to find out that The Beastie Boys are taking GoldieBlox to court for copyright infringement. The beat is similar but not exactly, and none of the lyrics are are the same at all. Of all things it really is a cute play on words, and a fun parody.

Innobaby Din Din Smart Bus Platter 5 Compartment Tray with Lid Review,
Innobaby makes some of the best re-usable products I have seen. Recently I received the Din Din Smart Stainless Steel Bus Platter with Sectional Blue Lid.
What I liked is there were five different sections for my 2 year old's food. My little one is one of those picky eaters. He will fling food if it is touching each other. That was not the case with Innobaby Din Din Smart Sectional Tray.
I also liked that when he didn't want anymore of his fruit for lunch, I just put the lid on the tray, to put into the fridge to save to go with Dinner. I'm all for easy, and no unwanted effort. So this was perfect.
To clean them out its easy easy, theres no hard corners that food sticks in. Also thought it was convenient that if you have more than 1 tray they stack neatly on top of one another.
Din Din Smart™ Stainless Bus Platter with Sectional Lid / Blue
Kid-friendly fun shape to make mealtime fun even for the picky eaters Five separate compartments – perfect for introducing the five food groups
Divided compartments prevents food from sliding and mixing
Sectional lid prevents food from sliding and mixing
Sectional lids are designed to stack easily
Nontoxic, worry-free mealtime solution
Made with highest quality food grade type 304 stainless steel
Stain resistant

What I liked is there were five different sections for my 2 year old's food. My little one is one of those picky eaters. He will fling food if it is touching each other. That was not the case with Innobaby Din Din Smart Sectional Tray.
I also liked that when he didn't want anymore of his fruit for lunch, I just put the lid on the tray, to put into the fridge to save to go with Dinner. I'm all for easy, and no unwanted effort. So this was perfect.
To clean them out its easy easy, theres no hard corners that food sticks in. Also thought it was convenient that if you have more than 1 tray they stack neatly on top of one another.
Would I recommend Innobaby Din Din Smart Bus Platter to others? Yes I would! It makes meal time a little easier by preparing, and putting away.
