My kids love “tenella” on toast for breakfast, lunch, or even a late night snack. My husband will eat huge gobs of it out of the jar with a spoon. It is so rich and delicious, and one of the few treats I can actually eat. Straight chocolate and peanut butter both give me migraines, but the heavens have smiles upon me and allowed for the consumption of this delightful Italian gem. I oftentimes bake with it, and have even bought Nutella Gelato to surprise everyone with this Valentines Day! We really do love it in this house. I have my own Nutella spoon (with a scraper on the back end) to extract every last precious drop of it from the jar, and will fight my large husband or small children for it if need be. -
Mott's Fruitsations +Fibre Unsweetened Raspberry
Mornings are crazy for moms. I don’t know if getting them to eat breakfast and get ready or packing lunches they will actually eat is more stressful- this delightful little product helps ease that stress in so many ways. Got a picky morning eater?... +
Mornings are crazy for moms. I don’t know if getting them to eat breakfast and get ready or packing lunches they will actually eat is more stressful- this delightful little product helps ease that stress in so many ways. Got a picky morning eater? I do. I toss one of these bad-boys at him, and it’s gone within seconds.
Trying to pack a lunch that won’t come home exactly as packed, or wanting to circumvent some of that Mom-guilt where you want to pack healthy things but “all the other kids eat to have treats at school”. Give her her one of these. She feels like she is getting a treat (because they are sweet and delicious), but you know a he’s eating something healthy with no added sugar and extra fibre. As a mom with a kid who has gastrointestinal issues, getting that added fibre into them in a way that doesn’t require medication or something they hate, makes the world of difference.
Now if only I could stop eating them before the kids can...

Lysol Disinfecting Wipes Citrus

I am someone who makes all my own cleaners. I use essential oils around the house, and try to do things as naturally as possible. This is the ONLY cleaner I will by. Lysol is one I trust to kill the salmonella after dinner prep, truly clean up kid and pet accidents, and eliminate any mystery messes. I trust no other product like this one. Having taken a course on best practices for health and safety, the rep who ran the course (from my municipal Health Department) recommended this product to kill and preventatively eliminate both
Rotovirus and bacterial influenza. That’s enough of a recommendation for me!

Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm with Vitamin-E & Peppermint
The is the only lip balm I can get my husband to use. I know that doesn’t seem like a big thing, but men get dry lips in the winter too. Other lip balms are too greasy, or too chemically, or too “girly” for my boys. But Burt’s Bees is the... +
The is the only lip balm I can get my husband to use. I know that doesn’t seem like a big thing, but men get dry lips in the winter too. Other lip balms are too greasy, or too chemically, or too “girly” for my boys. But Burt’s Bees is the one lip balm I can safely buy for the whole family to use, and it doesn’t break the bank. The invigorating peppermint flavour makes me want to kiss my hubby’s soft Burt’s Bees covered lips even more than usual ;) And my little guy has no problem carrying around his lip balm in his backpack. I never have to hear “I don’t want a girly one Mama!” or worry about all the harmful chemicals that they put in the other lip balms they’ve tried to gear towards boys by using superheroes. No gimmicks - just natural goodness for the whole family. -

This is one of the first beauty products I bought as a pre-teen 20 years ago. It really stands the test of time. I’ve used it through my acne covered awkward years, as my go-to for girlie spa nights in my twenties, and as my deep cleaning “mom-budget” bi-weekly facial. It’s like one of my oldest friends, with me through it all. Still love the scent the reminds me of my youth, and the absence of microbeads as a heath conscious Mama. -
