Uncommongoods.com, Zoku Quick Pop Maker Review & $50 Gift Certificate Give-Away!!!

Great gift ideas at UncommonGoods

The other day, when I was out shopping, almost every store I went in, had Christmas Trees, Wreaths, and Lights on display and for sale. There is no denying, despite the unseasonably warm weather we are having here in NY, that the holiday season is coming upon us fast. Many of you have started your shopping, and I have a great place to tell you about for unique and creative gifts for the people on your list.  I was recently asked by uncommongoods.com to do a review of their site.  They generously provided me with a gift code, and after looking a long time at their great inventory, I saw the Zoku Quick Pop Maker and ordered that.  I am a huge VitaMixer and I thought this would be great to make healthy and delicious pops for my family.  I put frozen pineapple, mango, strawberries, and raspberries in the VitaMix along with some water and a little honey and blended that all up.  Then I got the Zoku Pop Mold which I had washed and stuck in the freezer for at least 24 hours.  I put the sticks in (remember not to take the sticks out to reposition or for any reason or it will not work).  Then I poured in the blended mixture and waited about 7 minutes.  I was able just to use the tool provided to screw on the end of the pop stick and it released perfectly, even the one I had overfilled.  You can then unscrew the tool and pop on a drip catcher and you are ready to enjoy.  I made 6 from the same mold without refreezing and put the extra in zip lock bags in the freezer for later.  The pops were delicious and healthy and my kids loved them, as did my husband and myself.

uncommongoods.com has great gifts such as cool Gifts for Teens, Teen Girl Gifts, Unique Jewelry, Decorative Accents, Kitchen Tools and much more.  Their site is easy to navigate and place orders on.

Have you ever forgotten your cell phone when you go out?  If you did, you know what a pain it can be.  My smartphone is not only my connection to my family, but it allows me to check my business email and respond if I need to.  My husband is forever forgetting things, and when I had the opportunity to review this great gadget, I knew who my tester was going to be.  When it arrived, I gave it to him and in a few minutes he had it set up.  It was super easy to pair with his smartphone and now he has one less thing to worry about forgetting. Just leave Bringrr plugged in and never forget your phone again. Bringrr searches for your phone when you start your car.  If missing, light turns red and alarm goes off.  It also includes 2 detachable Micro-USB and Mini-USB cables.  Bringrr will also alert you if your phone battery dies.

Amber Artisans,Baltic Amber Baby Teething Necklace Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

In the past few years, I have heard a lot about how Amber Necklaces help ease teething pain.  I was recently sent a beautiful Baltic Amber Baby Teething Necklace from Amber Artisans to review.  I have learned so much about how this necklace can be used to relieve pain, even on adults as an anklet.  Amber Artisians has a great selection of Amber products on their website and everything is lovingly made by Lithuanian amber artisans who have generations of experience.

These beautiful, handmade Baltic amber baby teething necklaces glow warmly against baby’s skin. Made from high grade 100% natural Baltic amber. Oval amber beads are extra rounded and polished for comfort by Lithuanian amber artisans with generations of experience. Befitting these priceless and timeless treasures, each comes with its own complimentary natural Lithuanian linen bag.

Amber teething necklaces are made to wear but not to chew! Teething jewelry should be removed when child is sleeping or unattended! Learn more about amber teething necklaces .

Baltic amber baby teething necklaces have been used as the single best teething pain solution throughout Europe for generations. Today they are a common household item in European families that are considered one of the most important items used to care for a baby.

How Does It Work?

Natural Baltic Amber has many therapeutic qualities and provides natural pain relief. Baltic Amber releases healing oils which when warmed absorb into the skin. These oils reduce pain caused by teething, red inflamed cheeks and stimulates the thyroid glands to reduce drooling! Amber is known to boost the immune system, reduce inflammation, accelerate healing, and reduce throat, ear and stomach infections and respiratory disease as well as simply maintain healthy living. Read more about the many benefits of Baltic amber .

Features:

*A natural analgesic, amber helps remedy restlessness, irritability, sleep trouble and pain.

*We only use the BEST QUALITY, GENUINE, ANCIENT AMBER from Lithuania where experienced hand-crafters create intricate necklaces designed to follow the centuries old European style so you receive an absolutely unique necklace unlike any other.

*The amber beads are smooth and round so they are nice and comfortable for your baby’s skin.

*Amber is non-toxic (fossil resin produced by pine trees) and used in medicinal mixtures by many cultures.

*The beads are knotted before and after each bead so that in the event that the necklace does break only one bead will come off and the remaining beads will stay intact.

*A safe and effective homoeopathic remedy for teething. A perfect alternative to teething drugs, medication or gels.

*Baltic amber is very light and warm to the touch and transmits a relaxing smell when worn in your hand.

*We offer a complete range of sizes tailored specifically to our customers needs.

Are they safe?

The teething necklaces are DESIGNED FOR SAFETY of your baby. As a safety feature there is a knot before and after each bead, so that even in the extremely unlikely event of the string being torn, no beads are lost and there is no risk of choking. Our amber teething necklaces are secured with a traditional screw clasp that opens and closes easily.

Check out our matching parent’s amber necklaces for healing .

Care Instructions for your Amber Teething Necklace

*Wash necklace gently with luke warm water.

*Avoid rubbing or scrubbing the necklace.

*If beads come in contact with any harsh soaps or other substances wash immediately with luke warm water.

*Polish the necklace with olive oil to restore its original shine.

*Do not place necklace in direct sunshine or direct heat.

*Ensure that your baby does not chew on the necklace. This will ruin and necklace and weaken the thread. The necklace is meant only for wearing against your baby’s skin.

*If your child has a tendency to pull on the necklace place it under his/her clothing.

Parents have found amber to relieve swollen gums, enflamed cheeks, drooling and nappy rash, and improve their baby’s mood and wellbeing.

I have some great news to share, Amber Artisans is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings and one lucky blog reader will win their own Baltic Amber Baby Teething Necklace.  Thank you Amber Artisans for the review necklace and for sponsoring this great give-away on Mommy Ramblings!!!  Open Worldwide.

Lillibands Review and Discount Coupon Code!!

We recently connected with Lillibands, and they generously sent us these clever Mommy and Baby headbands and Messy Girl dress to review! The colors on the dress and headbands are so vibrant and pretty, I was excited to see how they looked on my nieces! The Messy Girl dress is an ingenious concept, being reversible with matching colors, so if your daughter makes a mess on one side, just flip it around and she is clean once again! It comes with a Lillibands headband that looks great with, and coordinates with both sides of the dress! I really love the idea of two outfits in one, my kids are constantly getting dirty and I always have to pack an extra outfit when we go anywhere. The Messy Girl dress fit my niece very nicely, and as she grows, the dress will still fit as a tunic, and she looks just adorable with the headband!
Lillibands headbands are made of fabric and elastic, so, unlike the hard plastic headbands, there is no “ouch” factor involved and they stay in place after hours of wearing! All of their products are proudly made in the U.S.A, and are made out of unique fashionable fabrics! I love the idea of Mommy and Baby headbands, it is so cute to see babies and their mamas with matching headbands! They are very comfortable, not too tight or loose, so you may forget you are wearing it!

Lillibands donates their comfortable headbands to the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta each month, helping to brighten the day of many young patients who are fighting cancer and other serious diseases.

I am happy to tell you that readers of Mommy Ramblings are invited to take 25% off of anything on Lillibands.com with the promo code “FF25“! Offer good from Oct 10-Nov 10 and open to US and Canadian residents. Thank you Lillibands for this great review and promotion!

The Protein Bakery Review & Give-Away!!! {Give-Away Ended}

I was recently sent an assortment of goodies to taste and review from The Protein Bakery.  Even in the wrappers they looked delicious. For 10 years the Protein Bakery has  expertly been creating delicious and healthy snacks that make your body’s engine work better. Their idea is simple: use the highest quality, natural ingredients, baked to perfection. Don’t add any preservatives or flavors. And as their name suggests– they use the purest whey protein isolate available. Each cookie, brownie, blondie has more protein and a few less carbohydrates than most snacks available. This nutritional balance prevents a heart rate change and won’t spike your blood sugar. Also of note: for people with wheat allergies, their products are wheat free. They do this by using rolled oats, which in turn adds dietary fiber. (Which is good for every body.)

Okay so all that sounds great right?  However, does it taste like a bird seed cake or does it taste decadent.  I can tell you their goodies were delicious, the blondies, the cookies were just so moist and rich, the kind of dessert you would eat at a party and beg the host for the recipe.  Definitely not something you would think was enhanced with whey protein.  Oh my gosh, as I am writing this I am fighting the urge to go into the kitchen for another snack form The Protein Bakery.  They definitely have a new customer.

The Protein Bakery does not believe in mass production.  They  produce all their baked goods in small batches. Which ensures they’re always sent to you fresh.  They have lots of great assortments that are perfect for gift giving and don’t forget to get some for yourself.  Once you have tasted their blondies, brownies and cookies, you will not forget to get some for yourself.

I have some great news to share.  The Protein Bakery is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings.  One lucky blog reader will win a sample pack from The Protein Bakery.  The sample pack will include an assortment of 2 brownies/blondies, 2 colossal cookies and 4 cookie 2-packs, a $45 value.  Thank you to The Protein Bakery for the review assortment and for sponsoring this delicious give-away on Mommy Ramblings.  Open to US residents.

Snow’s original line of Natural Soda + Vitamins is lightly sweetened with natural cane sugar, lightly carbonated and loaded with vitamins including Vitamin C, B3, B5, B6 and B12. Their new Light Snow line is also Naturally Refreshilicious and loaded with vitamins but it is sweetened with a combination of natural ZERO calorie sweeteners!

I like that the soda is made with natural ingredients.  If you are going to have a soft drink, then it is great that you can have one with vitamins and great taste.

Soda is not a “health drink.” Drinking Snow soda will not make you brilliant, live forever, or give you the power to fly. It is about fun and exuberance and it’s an indulgence. However, unlike most traditional sodas (which are loaded up with unhealthy ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, phosphoric acid and chemical preservatives) conversely, there is NOTHING in Snow products that is unhealthy. That’s a huge difference and it is one that you and the people you care about deserve.

Snow Natural Soda + Vitamins is lightly sweetened with cane sugar and contains less calories than most juice and traditional soda. The new zero calorie line, Light Snow Natural Soda + Vitamins, is sweetened with a blend of natural no-calorie sweeteners including Stevia.

Great news!!!  Snow is sponsoring a give-away on Mommy Ramblings.  One lucky blog reader will win a case of Snow Natural Vitamin Soda to try for themselves.  Thank you Snow for the review soda and for sponsoring this refreshing give-away on Mommy Ramblings.  Open to US residents.
