Urban Accents Gourmet Gobbler Turkey Brine and Rub Kit- Review and Giveaway

Thanksgiving is only two and a half weeks away, so it is time to begin planning our menus! As I have mentioned before, (I think?) I eat gluten free, so this year it will be all gluten free recipes for me.
The first item that I would like to share about the Urban Accents Gourmet Gobbler Turkey Brine and Rub Kit. If you haven't tried a brine kit before, PLEASE start this year, with this kit! I will never go back to not brining again. The turkey comes out so much juicier, and absorbs and retains the flavors of the spice kit. And I have to say, the spice kit was a perfect blend, flavorful, but not overwhelming (which is rare in poultry spicing kits, I know!).

You can buy it online at urbanaccents.com. It is actually on sale right now, so now is the time to buy! You can enter to win a kit yourself in the Rafflecopter below! Subscribe for updates on the next giveaway, and for my upcoming gluten free Thanksgiving Recipes!

It's time for another giveaway!!

Recently, Isla has been having problems falling asleep in her stroller and in her carseat. I couldn't figure out what the problem was, until one day when she was in her stroller pointing at EVERYTHING and making the adorable (but slightly frustrating when it is supposed to be nap time) excited OOOH noise. That's when it hit me-I need to try a car seat canopy!!

Blue Baby Bum has the cutest patterns I have found! And it works so well to shade babies from the sun, and external stimulations. The Car Seat and Stroller Canopy is made in the U.S.A. by parents who understand babies' needs!

Isla has resumed sleeping soundly during her stroller and carseat naps thanks to the Blue Baby Bum Canopy!!

Giveaway AND Promo Code!!-Simba Flip-It Straw Training Cup

Hello Again!

I am really excited to post about the Simba Flip-It Straw Training Cup! My favorite feature about this cup (aside from how cute it is!) is that the straw is actually flexible and has a weight at the bottom, so it will bend according to how Isla tries to drink, and she is able to get every last bit of water by herself! It also doesn't leak around the lid, so I don't have any more random puddles scattered through the house where Isla leaves her cup!

Simba is going to be running a discount code for 15% off this Training Cup on Amazon for us, as well as one reader giveaway! Woohoo!!  Check it out on Amazon, by using the link below with the promo code YNXN4VT8:

Dolphin Organics-Product Review

The more I post, the more you will all see how obsessed with lavender I am! I am basically a sucker for anything lavender scented (truthfully, I love most all essential oil smells!). And as you can also tell, I use natural products whenever possible on Isla. So it's no surprise that I am officially a huge fan of Dolphin Organics baby wash.

Naturally, the scent that I currently am using is Norfolk Lavender. It makes Isla's hair smell so sweet, and feel incredibly soft! They are safe for sensitive skin, since they are made of natural ingredients, paraben-free, gluten-free. And they are PETA Certified cruelty-free and vegan! All of my favorites packed into one product! Try them out at dolphinorganics.com, and let me know what you think!!

Giveaway! Nawgum by Mello & Co.

Isla's teething so far has been nothing short of a nightmare. Not only has she been EXTRA clingy to me, but we are constantly searching for ways to soothe the pain. I have tried so many remedies, from a frozen washcloth for her to chew on, to little vibrating teethers. The problem was she refused to keep anything but her fingers in her mouth, then she would bite her finger too hard and cry.

Enter: The Nawgum. This is an amazing teething toy that she will actually keep in her mouth, and it really seems to relieve her pain! She puts it in her mouth, and her whining turns to content baby babble noises! It is shaped like a finger, so Isla can chew it and have the same relief without biting herself (or me!).

I wish I knew about this sooner, because it can be used on babies as young as 3 months old (with parent's supervision of course), all the way through older children (up to 10 years) with oral aversions. It's non-toxic, BPA-Free, and CPSC compliant.

Enter below through the Rafflecopter to win a free Nawgum! And don't forget to subscribe to this blog to be notified when new giveaways start!

Bundle Organics Juice- Discount Code!

Recently, I have become a huge proponent of juicing. I am trying to juice on a regular basis, at least once a day, but to be honest, making your own juice takes a LOT of clean up time that I don't always have. Bundle Organics has been a life saver on my juice quest! They make SUPER healthy juices that have no added sugar, no preservatives, and is made of straight fruits and veggies, with some added vitamins and minerals like Folic Acid, Calcium, and Omega-3. I have tried all three flavors, and they are all delicious! Dark Berry Veggies is the sweetest, so I use it to make Isla's teething ice pops! They are actually the first line of USDA organic juices recommended for pregnant and nursing mothers, and they were created with an OB-GYN and Dietitian, so I know that Isla and I are getting our vitamins! Try them out and let me know what you think! Go to bundleorganics.com, and type in TELLME15 at check out for a 15% off discount until Sunday!
