Bora Bora Foods Review and Giveaway!


If you are like me you are always looking for healthier ways to snack. That's why I am so excited to share with you Bora Bora Organic Foods! Their bars are gluten-free, organic, refined sugar free, non-GMO, vegan, and kosher. By virtue of the fact that they're vegan they're also dairy-free. And as best as I can tell, the bars are also largely a raw product, comprised of nuts, seeds, and fruit (using either agave nectar, honey, or brown rice syrup as a sticky binder and natural sweetener).

Their bars are grouped into three different families  get going "Energy", feel great "Superfood", and live long "Antioxidant".

I received five bars: Exotic Coconut Almond, Pacific Mango Macadamia, Wild Pomegranate Pecan, Paradise Walnut Pistachio and Volcanic Chocolate Banana. Without tasting them, I already loved the fact that the names of their bars are very exotic and sound so very tasty. Its amazing how these bars have huge chunks of nuts and dried fruits. Their bars, by far, are the best eye candy I've seen in a while. I also received a really cute shirt, a super-adorable tiki mug, some fake tattoos and a chapstick.

I tried them all and will say by far the Wild Pomegranate Pecan was my favorite. This bar has cherries in it with pomegranate and peacans. Talk about a great combo! I wasn't really wild about the coconut almond as the coconut seemed too dry to me. The Pacific Mango Macadamia and Paradise Walnut Pistachio where both very good. I love the big chunks of dried fruit in them. The only thing I didn't like in the Pacific Mango Macadamia is the coconut as it seemed dry.Then their was the Volcanic Chocolate Banana which was very good. It doesn't taste like regular chocolate. It has a different taste but is very good. My kids of course loved getting to try this bar.

Now on to the lip balm. It flavor is Wild Pomegranate and smells yummy. It not only smells good but it makes your lips feel oh so great!

Bora Bora Foods is offering one of my lucky readers a prize pack like I received!

Trim Treads Review and Giveaway!


You always hear that walking is great exercise! Well add Trim Treads to the mix and you get toning as well!
 Trim Treads were designed by a medical doctor to improve circulation in her ob-gyn patients. The shoes do that, but through research and study they have found they offer many other fitness benefits as well.


They say if wear your Trim Treads just 30 minutes these will be the benefits you will see:

  • lifted buns

  • toned legs

  • a stronger core

  • better circulation

  • perfect posture

  • improved balance

  • burning calories
I received a brown pair of their sandals to try. I have to say I was skeptical at first. These look like flip flops with a wedge underneath. So, I tried them on and started walking around in them. It was hard at first to balance but after awhile I got the hang of it. I then decided to try some of the different ways to use them. Oh my gosh after workng my calves for about 2 minutes I felt the burn! I really can feel and tell a difference in my legs and my balance. 

 A good thing about these is the quality of the foot straps, they were extra plush like a terrycloth robe, and wide enough to not cut into the feet when walking. Which is a big plus as I have had some flops that after a couple hours leave a blister inbetween the toe. That wouldn't be fun in these for sure.

If you're trying to tone your leg muscles, but don't want to do all the hard work, definitely check out Trim Tread! You can purchase the same sandal I reviewed for $39.99 and it comes in seven different colors to choose from. Aside from sandals, Trim Treads also have clogs and boots.

Trim Treads is offering on of my lucky readers their very own pair of sandals.

Hearth Song GBOP Review and Giveaway!


HearthSong’s motto is toys you’ll feel good about giving and boy are they right. Just by looking at their unique line-up of toys for kids of all ages, you’ll be sure to see something that you will feel good about giving to that little special somebody on your gift list.

HearthSong has a selection sure to please.Their are many different ways you can shop by your child’s interest, their age, or by price, or even browse by bestselling products making your shopping much simpler!
 
I recently got to review their Great Big Outdoor Playball (GBOP)! My kids loved it! They spent hours playing in it outside this past weekend. I had to make sure the big kids got to play in it first because once Faith got in she didn't want to get out. 

 This was the 52" GBOP and is recommend for ages 6 and up! Even I could fit in this ball and be comfortable. I tried to get my husband to get in their to see how he fit in since he is 6 feet tall. But he wouldn't. This also comes with a electric pump to pump it with. It does take some time to pump up the ball but it's well worth it! I promise your kids will love this!
 
Hearth Song is going to give one of my lucky readers their very own 52" GBOP with pump like I received!
