Review: Team Mule Borax

 For over 115 years, 20 Mule Team Borax has helped the world get their clothes smelling fresher and their households looking cleaner. Borax has long been, and will continue to be the natural way to clean.

Christina's Voice:
As growing up my mother had always used Borax for tons of thing for different cleaning uses. Laundry was one of them. You can add a 1/2 cup of Borax to your regular everyday detergent to help brighten your clothes and wash them better.

What is Borax?

• 20 Mule Team Borax 100% natural mineral from the earth. Once removed from the ground it is washed, dried and boxed for consumers.
• Borax is the common name for sodium tetraborate: naturally occurring substance producted by the perpetual evaporation of seasonal lakes.
• Asolutely nothing is added. No phosphates, chlorine, or other additive chemicals. 

What is hard water?

• Over 85% of homes have what most people call " Hard Water." Hard water is defined as water that contains calcium and magnesium (ions).

 How does hard water affect laundry?

• When you add detergent to hard water, some of the compounds attach to calcium and magnesium granules that settle on the bottom of your washing machine, eventually retreating down the drain without actually cleaning your clothes. What waste of detergent right?

 20 Mule Team Borax naturally softens hard water:

• 20 Mule team Borax naturally softs softens hard water, which protects your detergent- so it can maximize cleaning power.

Review Pine Bros - Soft throat drops-

 In 1930 Pine Brothers was sold to the Life Savers Company and continued to flourish. Known for its 'soft drop consistency,' Pine Brothers lozenges became a favorite of adults and children alike. Read more

 Christina's Voice:
Pine bros make the softish throat drops since 1870. They are an american made throat drop. They look hard, but they are not they are really gummy.They are for temporary relief of minor discomfort and protection of irritated areas in sore mouth and sore throat. There is only 5calories per drop so that is good, and you don't get that menthol taste like you do a normal cough drop. But i have to admit the wild cherry flavor was my best, and you can tell a difference when sucking on one, when your throat is feeling itchy.

Review/Giveaway PB Crave all natural peanut butter

 PB Crave is a subsidiary of Sweet Harvest Foods, a nearly 90 year old company located in Minnesota. A new and separate plant was built to craft the dizzying blends of premium peanut butters using cutting edge technology and innovation to insure that top quality ingredients reach the package and the consumer in the form they were blended. When you open a jar, you’ll see the pure Belgium chips, yet when you spread the product on bread, it will spread deliciously smooth with little to zero chunks. This craft has been perfected and consumers have given the product rave reviews for taste, quality, and price, especially when you factor in, No Jelly needed.

Christina's voice:
 PB Crave is an all natural peanut butter which means its all natural oils are from peanuts and pal fruit oil, which is where is separates from the peanut butter and other ingredients over time. Since its all natural you can see the oils settling on top, so i just got a spoon and stirred it up and then it looked normal. I loved the Choco Choco kind while my daughter went bananas over the coco banana flavor. We tried it out over toasted wheat bread, but i am sure it will be good over many of other things.

•  Now available at The Fresh Market, Earth Fare and at some Whole Foods grocery stores.

Review: Biokleen Automatic Dish Gel

 Biokleen offers a unique line of over 30 sustainably-made, biodegradable, non-flammable cleaning products that are free of harsh chemicals and synthetic fragrances.

 Christina's voice:
Automatic Dish Gel from Biokleen  is a product that removes tough baked on food and grease. It is made with out all those toxic chemicals all while leaving your dishes, glasses and flatware spotless. I washed a pretty big load, and it was pretty messy. When the cycle wash load was done there was no residue left on the dishes at all. This 64fl oz bottle is 3X more concentrated than most dish gels. It came out pretty thick which is a good thing because it's suppose to be a gel. The smell isn't so bad either. The scent of grapefruit seed and orange peel extract had my kitchen smelling good. I was very satisfy with this product! I would recommend this to anyone who is trying to get away from all those bad chemicals, but still get the same clean.

Review/giveaway: Dentisse toothpaste and oral rinse

 What makes Dentisse Natural Reflection toothpaste and Natural Solution oral rinse more effective than other products on the market today? Simply put, their unique formulas. Many years of research and development, plus the natural ingredients in both, are combined in a proprietary way that enhances your smile—effectively, safely, naturally!

 Christina's voice:
I got to try out some samples of Dentisse natural reflection toothpaste and dentisse natural solution oral rinse. The tooth paste was really minty and left my mouth feeling really refreshing. I was shocked it being that refreshing and all natural because most all natural product doesn't leave that clean taste or smell behind. The Oral rinse was nice to, it wasn't as mint as the tooth paste but left my mouth really bubbley when using the product. I would recommend this for anyone who looking to go all natural and get a healthy happy smile.

Namaste tote bag full of one Pasta Meal, Baking Mix, Coating Mix

Christina's voice:

•  Cookie Mix- I made some sugar cookie with this cookie mix and it tasted really good. We just had plains ones but you can always add your favorite macadamia nut or even chocolate chips. All i had to add was egg,oil and water.

•  Italian Herb Coating Mix- This product is made with nutritious flax meal and whole grain flours so its actually really good for you. In the box there is two seasoning packets along with two bags to mix the product up in. We used some boneless chicken but you can also use pork,fish and even veggies. I got my chicken moist in buttermilk and then added the coat with the Italian herb mix which gave it that crisp taste and flavor. I didn't use the bags that came with it i just used a pan and poured the mix on top you can do either or as well. My family enjoyed it.

•  Say Cheez Pasta meal.we had with our chicken that night, but you can alone to, like as a meal itself. To be a non-dairy cheezy pasta it was actual good. You just shake on the cheezy seasoning packets and your done, that simple.
