"Outlast"ing The Cold Season 6 Hours At A Time

     I do not have enough good things to say about Outlast Long Lasting Hand Sanitizer. I was very excited to try it out after some other rave reviews I had read.  I would like to thank the nice folks at Outlast for allowing me to review such a great product. (*) This product did even better than what I had expected. It was very smooth and not greasy.  I also really liked that the smell was not over powering, nor was the amount of sanitizer you needed to apply excessive.  It dried very quickly and I didn't have to do the "dry the hands" fanning motion, or wipe the excess on my pant leg. :) The best part was knowing that I didn't have to re-apply tons of times during the day since Outlast lasts for up to 6 hours.  I worry about germs constantly especially with being pregnant and having a lower immune system, but when I used Outlast I didn't worry about running my errands and being around the cold and flu shoppers, as the season is rapidly sneaking up on us.  I also rest assured that I will not be passing anything on to my son during the sick season. Keep in mind that Christmas is just around the corner so instead of sharing germs, stuff your stockings with Outlast for a happy healthy flu season. Once we run out I will definitely be ordering more, I recommend that you do the same.

Terry Washcloth Bunnies, Frogs and Mice WAHM Review

A lovely Work At Home Mom made these adorable teething and boo boo soothing wash cloth animals. I snagged one up as soon as I came across the tester forum. Currently, she makes bunnies, frogs and mice. My little one tested the the frog. The pro's: its a washcloths, so its easy to clean, rinse off. I am also a fan because if you feel uncomfortable with putting an ice cube in for teething you can wet the bottom half and pop it in the freezer for a little bit, leaving the bottom end frozen but the top part (the head) not too cold to hold onto. The con's: The ribbon was too long, I had expressed my concerns and she told me that she had no problem making the ribbon shorter. The neutral: I have yet to try it in the washer and dryer, but since it is a washcloth I would imagine I may just have to reshape a little after its washed and dried. As a whole, I was very pleased with this product and wish her all the best of luck. For more details please check out  Monkey Beans at http://hyenacart.com/glitterandgumdrops/

Garbage Pickens

I am a frugal momma. I love great deals and we are a self proclaimed "semi-green" family. I was going to a mommy meeting last night and while driving down a local back road I hit the garbage "jackpot"! I <3 GARBAGE DAY! If only my car trunk was bigger. :( I had to choose between a little tikes picnic table and a little tikes car. I then realized the picnic table would not fit in my trunk, so, I chose the car. It is structurally sound, I truly don't know why anyone would just throw it away. But now Mr. Mack has a super cool cruiser for the awesome price of FREE! I do need to clean it off though. I was very pleased with the evening from there on out. But I did leave it in my trunk last night because my dear husband hates, I mean really, really hates when I bring home free stuff.
But pictures speak a thousand words and Mack had fun "driving" up and down the sidewalk....with some help from me of course.



My "Official" review of the Little Tikes Blue Push Cruiser:

The price was right for me since I had gotten it from someones garbage, but brand new the car retails for about $50. In normal circumstances I would deem that overpriced and not purchase the car brand new. That being said, the car is very durable, very easy to clean and will last from your first child to your last and then on to your grandchildren. So all in all, you would be getting a great deal for a product that will last. In this case I would not mind purchasing the Little Tikes Blue Push Cruiser brand new. You will pay a little more in the beginning but the product you are purchasing is high quality and worth every penny. 

My Mind Is Made Up!

Today is the first day of, well, its a new day anyway. But I think that I should be more consistent in my blogging. Besides the fact that I find it funny to read past entries I also find it to be calming. Kind of like my knitting.... or lack there of lately. lol. I tried to knit a hat. I mean I gave it the good 100% college try, and ended up taking out my crochet needle and making the first baby hat ever crafted by my chubby little fingers. I felt accomplished until I looked at it. LOL. It is the "wonkiest" hat I have ever seen in my life! Mack was in good spirits so I had him model for me. Poor little fella. He has been subjected to the wrath of modeling before, only last time it was a little girls dress.LOL. I had found a pattern and decided to sew a dress just because. Needless to say there are no pictures of that event. Now it is time to get off this lovely machine and get some housework done.... and make some brownies. Until tomorrow!

LOVES!
