Spiral Light Candle #Review

This is a “sponsored post.” The company who sponsored it compensated me via a cash payment, gift, or something else of value to write it. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”

Spiral Light Candle is a North Dakota based business that was founded on an innovative idea nourished and strengthened by its passionate entrepreneurially-minded team. Today Spiral Light Candle is located in its newly designed and constructed manufacturing facility in Hillsboro, North Dakota. Spiral Light self-filling candles are a new twist on an old staple.

The self-filling candle is first lit using the horizontal wick on the upper edge. The candle burns around the hollow center with the wooded wick allowing the wax to drain inward, filling in the center. The horizontal spiraling wick then self-extinguishes when the inside wax level reaches the top of the spiral, preventing any spillage and thus resulting in a solid pillar candle. You  then light the wood wick to allow the remaining pillar to burn down. GENIUS RIGHT!!! 


Watch 

~


I let my spiral  burn almost all the way to the end...the melted wax was nearly covering  the wood wick-so observe carefully--A burning candle should never be left unattended anyway!  The scent I received is Cranberry Mango...Fragrant yet not too overpowering for a 12X10 room. They carry so many other great scents I cannot wait to try.

 TOP 3 for me are 

Tropical Sunset

Orchid

Buttered Rum

If your sensitive to scents they even offer unscented!

Starting under $10 these make beautiful and unique gifts 

for any occasion.

Zevia #Review

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

 I was given the opportunity to sample a natural soda called Zevia- AND I'M LOVING IT!!!! They use Stevia... unlike Aspartame, Splenda, Sweet N Low and similar sweeteners, Stevia is natural. A plant native to South America, the extract from the Stevia leaf is 300 times sweeter than sugar, but has 0 calories and does not effect blood sugar.

There are a great variety of flavors like  Grapefruit Citrus,  Grape(our store didn't carry this one) Cola, Caffeine Free Cola, Orange, Cream Soda (couldn't find these two either) Black Cherry, Ginger Ale, Mountain Zevia, Lemon Lime Mist, Dr. Zevia, Root Beer,

"its not so bad"

"I like -NO SUGAR!!"

I made myself a fruit smoothie and added a splash of the black cherry for a fun fizzy smoothie!!!

I'm not HUGE on giving my kids lots of soda but when I do IT WILL BE ZEVIA.

Add a little SPICE to your Valentines Day

We'd all love to SPICE UP our relationship just a little...you don't always need Mr.Gray to do it.

A great way to your better half's heart is to spice it up in the kitchen. How about attempting a new light authentic Indian dish this Valentines Day. Normally I'd back away from  this sort of complex cuisine, but I was introduced to Kitchen Curry Master kit and I can feel confident I can serve  up a wonderful dish.

The presentation of the box is gorgeous filled with 12 essential spices that make up the foundation for Indian cooking.There is an accompanying cookbook that is bursting with vegetarian, meat, and seafood recipes. I love that each recipe has a video online as well.

The recipes have been developed by Neena Patel Williams  a home cook who grew up helping in her family's Indian restaurant in London.Each recipe has a shopping list, and what spices will be needed from the kit. There are simple prep steps and easy cooking instructions. The back has a super spice guide!! Believe me this is a simple way to unlock a whole new world and it couldn't be any easier!!

You can purchase at kitchencurrymaster.com, Amazon , or Etsy.com and just under $60 this will be a great investment. It also makes a wonderful housewarming, wedding or any occasion gift.

Lost My Name Book #review

If in the new year you are expecting a new bundle of joy, or if you are looking for the perfect baby shower gift I've  got  great idea for you.



Lost My Name Book

Lost My Name is a must-have, magical gift for children - a personalized book like no other, packed with fun stories and beautiful illustrations. But the real magic lies in the personalization. The child is given the first letter of each character’s name, finally putting together their own name. Every name creates its own unique, personalized tale featuring an incredible cast of different characters. The books: “The Little Girl Who Lost Her Name” and “The Little Boy Who Lost His Name.” 

The books are so beautifully done. They will take your child on a grand adventure.

They tell the story of a child who sets off on a spectacular adventure to track down all the missing letters of their name. Kids will love to meet the glamorous Ostrich, sleep-deprived Bear or  Zebra torn between spots and stripes – and many, many more. No need to worry if your kids have unique names or if their names are spelled differently than mainstream names. Each book can include the letters you want with thousands of possibilities! Each book is printed on thick, environmentally-friendly paper and bound by hand. Suitable for children aged 2-7, $29.99 and shipping is free! www.lostmy.name
