We tried these during a snack break after a walk, and they definitely packed a punch. I enjoyed the mix of sweet, tangy, and slightly spicy flavours. It’s a bold chip with lots of personality. My daughter gave them a try too, but she found them a little spicy for her taste. The texture is just as strong as the flavour, with a rugged crunch that makes each bite feel hearty. The bag was a bit tricky to open, but the flavour made up for it. Great for anyone who loves a snack with attitude.

My daughter and I had these during a break after our walk, and they were an instant favourite. The crunch is loud and satisfying, just what you'd hope for in a kettle-cooked chip. The seasoning is simple, just a light touch of sea salt, which really lets the potato flavour come through. They’re easy to enjoy, not too salty, and feel like a reliable classic. We both kept reaching for more. No frills, just really good, loud, crunchy, and rugged chips.

As a mom, finding a great water bottle for my daughter is a game of trial and error. I recently tried the new Contigo Aubrey Juniper 14 Oz water bottle, and it's a winner!
Taking my daughter out for a walk, the AUTOSPOUT® lid was impressive. One-handed use is so helpful, and my daughter easily pushed the button to flip up the straw herself, which she loved.
The "leak-proof" claim is true! We had it in a backpack, then just holding it, and not a single drip. The straw folds down securely, keeping it clean and preventing spills. "More play, less mess" indeed!
Cleaning is typically a headache, but this Contigo bottle makes it easy. The lid hinges open wide, allowing simple access for cleaning. Plus, it's dishwasher safe, a big time-saver. The silicone straw feels durable, and the easy-to-carry handle is perfect for little hands.
The Contigo Aubrey Juniper 14 Oz water bottle is clearly designed for active kids and busy parents.
If you need a durable, truly spill-proof, and easy-to-clean water bottle for your child, I highly recommend it!

I’ve been using Blue Lizard Sensitive Sunscreen Stick and it’s quickly become a favourite for mess-free, everyday sun protection. This SPF 50+ mineral formula glides on smoothly, rubs in clear, and dries without any greasy feel.
It’s made with Zinc Oxide and nourishing ingredients like aloe vera, shea butter, sunflower seed oil, and vitamin E. It protects and moisturizes at the same time. With no parabens, no fragrances, and no chemical active ingredients, it’s ideal for sensitive skin.
It’s also water and sweat resistant for up to 80 minutes and fits easily in a bag, backpack, or pocket. I use it before heading outside or playing with my daughter and I know I’m covered.
Quick to apply, kind to skin, and easy to carry. That’s a win.

What I appreciate most is that it provides broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection using mineral ingredients like Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide. It’s gentle enough for my daughter’s sensitive skin and works beautifully on mine too, making it a great pick for all skin types.
The texture is smooth and easy to apply without that heavy, greasy feeling. I also love that it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes, so I don’t have to worry the minute she jumps into a sprinkler or starts running around in the sun. The new formula with Blue Algae feels like a little extra care for her skin.
An added bonus is that it’s reef-friendly. No Oxybenzone, no Octinoxate. I can feel good about what we’re putting on our skin and what’s going back into the environment.
Blue Lizard is a brand trusted by pediatricians, and now it’s trusted by our family too. If you’re looking for a reliable, family-safe sunscreen this summer, this is a great one to keep close.

Spaghetti night is a big deal in our house, and I’ll admit I was nervous to mess with a classic. But Catelli® PROTEIN+™ Spaghetti totally delivered and no one even noticed the switch.
It cooked in about eight minutes, which is a huge plus when I’m juggling homework help and a hungry kid asking when dinner will be ready. The texture was spot on, firm without being chewy, and it held up really well under our go-to tomato sauce.
The best part is the protein boost. With 17 grams of plant-based protein per serving, I feel good knowing this meal is more than just carbs. I didn’t need to add meat to make it filling, and that makes dinner prep a little easier and a lot cleaner.
This has become our new go-to for pasta night. Same comfort food taste with added nutrition that I don’t have to sneak in.

Dinner is always a race in our house. Between after-school activities and a never-ending to-do list, I need meals that are quick, healthy, and kid-approved. Catelli® PROTEIN+™ Penne checked all the boxes.
I used it in a simple baked pasta dish with tomato sauce and some veggies I needed to use up. The penne held its shape beautifully and had that perfect al dente bite. You would never guess it’s made with plant-based protein from peas, chickpeas, and lentils. It tasted just like regular pasta, which is exactly what I need when cooking for a little one who notices everything.
What I love most is the 17 grams of protein per serving. It gives me peace of mind knowing I’m feeding my family something filling and wholesome without having to add extra meat or complicated sides. And it's ready in just nine minutes, which saved me on a night when I barely had time to think.
This pasta is officially on our weekly rotation. Easy, nutritious, and actually gets eaten. Total win.

As a mom juggling school pickups, work calls, and a kid who can detect a chickpea from a mile away, finding a nutritious meal that actually gets eaten is a small miracle. Enter Catelli® PROTEIN+™ Elbows; my new weeknight lifesaver.
I’ll be honest, I didn’t expect much. High-protein pasta made from peas, lentils, and chickpeas? That usually means rubbery texture or odd aftertaste. But not this time. It tasted just like the classic elbows I grew up with: smooth, just the right bite, and zero weird flavours.
I had dinner on the table in under 15 minutes (including boiling and a quick mac and cheese sauce). My daughter devoured her bowl and even asked for seconds. Seconds! From a kid who once cried over whole wheat spaghetti.
Knowing it’s packed with 17g of plant-based protein and certified vegan just adds peace of mind. No compromise on taste or texture; just a nourishing meal we all enjoyed.
I’ll be stocking up on this. Especially for those days when dinner needs to happen fast and feel good.

This serum might be my favourite of the three, even with very short hair. A tiny bit goes a long way, and it gives my hair a smooth, polished finish. It helps with flyaways and makes my hair feel more resilient. I like applying it right after towel-drying—my hair feels instantly softer. The texture is light and gel-like, and it doesn’t feel greasy at all. Over a few days of use, I could tell my hair looked shinier and healthier. Even with a low-maintenance cut, this gives a nice boost. It’s a small step that makes a big difference. -

I wasn’t sure if I needed conditioner with short hair, but I’m glad I gave this one a try. It’s light and doesn’t weigh my hair down, which is a big plus. Just a small amount softens my hair and makes it feel more nourished. I noticed less frizz and more definition in my short cut. Even though my hair is short, it can still get dry from styling and weather, so this added moisture helps. I also love that it’s free of harsh ingredients. It leaves my hair feeling soft and touchable without any buildup. It’s now part of my regular routine. -
