Heat Resistant Silicone Grill Gloves Review

Disclaimer: I received the product described for free or reduced cost to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.

I cannot tell you how many times I have been cooking in my over and had a hot pad slip out of my hand or an oven mitt slide right off my hand. There have also been countless times that I have used a hot pad and bumped the top of my hand on an oven rack. OUCH!

When I originally was given the opportunity to try out the silicone heat resistant gloves, I had no expectations. Once I used them, all of my oven mitts went in the trash and all of my hot pads turned into trivets for my table.

I instantly fell in love. They slide on just like a glove and protect your hands from hot objects. No sliding off my hands and no bumping exposed parts of the hands on oven racks with these little babies!

Oh did I forget to mention that these are dishwasher safe? OMG! Heaven! No need to worry about getting greasy goo in your laundry. Rinse them off in your sink and toss them on the top rack of the dish washer and you are good to go. Well, you may want to actually run your dishwasher too.


The only downfalls I could find:
They come in orange
They may not fit really large hands

There you go. If you don't have giant hands and do not care that these amazing gloves are orange, these belong in your kitchen!

Growpetz Retractable Dog Leash Review #Retractabldogleash

Disclaimer: I received the product described below at a reduced cost or at no charge to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own and may differ from your own.




Oh my god, where have you been all of my life? I have raised labs my entire life. And to answer your next question, Yes I am over 20!
I currently have a 4 month old lab that is full of spunk. I would like to tell you she is full of something else, but that may be for another site ;)

Needless to say, I had not started to leash train my puppy until I received the Growpetz Retractable leash. First off, all puppies get the leash clipped on and immediately go into reverse. I am not sure why, but they all seem to. My sweet little monster, err angel, was not even phased by this leash being clipped on. She sat like she did not recently rip open most of the flesh from my legs with her nails and razor sharp teeth just a few minutes before. Then she saw the flash of neon yellow and in her mouth went the leash. This is not a wrapped cord that those razor teeth will quickly shred. It is a nice nylon type material that is very well made and apparently holds up very well to sweet little angels that chew....a lot....with sharp teeth.

The leash itself is light weight and easy to handle. This makes it nice for even a young kid to grab and keep a hold on. Locking the leash is as easy as pushing the button. No fumbling required.

I cannot say enough about this retractable leash. It may look similar to the one sold at your local store, but trust me, it is NOT. I have had many from the local stores that I no longer own because my dogs always seemed to be smarter that the person that designed them. This is one that will stay and might even multiply in my home.

Baby Proofing U Shape Edge Guards


In my home I have heavy furniture. The is a set of marble topped tables in my living room and a glass top table in my family room. For some reason they seem to be magnets for my children, I cannot tell you how many times my kids have bumped into my coffee table or end tables causing little goose eggs to form on the little foreheads. It has been a never ending battle.

I had a change to receiving a set of baby proofing edge guards for free in order to give my honest opinion of them. So here it goes:

First off, let me commend this company for knowing that not everything in my house is black and white. There is a full array of colors available to attempt to blend in, or even stand out from your everyday furniture.

The edge guards are a soft foam material and easy to slide on to the edge of most surfaces. This particular edge guard is a "U" shape so it does not fit easily on to a wider surface. This really requires a thinner table top. It worked perfectly on my glass top table that is about 1/2 inch thick. It did not work well on my marble top tables that are closer to 2 inches thick. It was stretched a little to much and just did not provide the security that I was looking for on the marble table.

The edge guards go on easily  but that means they also come off easily. Little fingers grab and pull then the edge guard will end up being not so effective. I found that the opening (where the two ends meet) should be away from the reach of my children at all times. Less access o the opening, meant the edge guards stayed on.

All in all, I think that this is great product to protect from unwanted bumps and bruises. i would like to see a way to keep it in place a little better though.


Product description from the manufacturer:

Baby Proofing Table Edge Protector
The glass coffee table at home maybe one of the most dangerous furniture for the baby. This U Shape table edge protector guard gives you excellent impact absorption and protect your loved ones against bumps, bruises, cuts from hard, sharp edges and corners. With the 3M double side tape included, this product can be easily applied to the glass table. This product is completely toxic free, which is ideal for baby proofing purpose.

Stainless Steel BBQ Grill Brush Review

Disclaimer: I received the product described below at a reduced price or free of charge. However, all opinions are my own.

When it comes to cleaning my BBQ, I buy a new grill brush every spring. It never fails that I manage to gunk up my brush by the end of summer. Well, sometimes I am just flat out lucky that my grill brush lasts that long.
When I received the stainless steel grill brush from EliteChef, I figured it would be the next one on the garbage pile. But boy was I wrong.
I handed the grill brush to my hubby, and I sent him out to our grill. First off, let me just tell you that my grill had been sitting all winter covered in grease and a few other things I am sure that I do not want to think about.
The very first think out of my husbands mouth was, "This thing is nice! Look how clean the grill came." However, the first thing I did was look at the grill brush. I wanted to know what it looked like after scrubbing my 6 month old grime off of my BBQ.

Needless to say, the brush held up better than well. It looked untouched. Okay, so there were a few greasy fingerprints on the handle. By the way, those fingerprints wipes right off. But, the bristles were still intact and were not smushed flat!
I cannot say enough about how well this has held up to my caked on greasy BBQ and the absolute roughness that we have put it through over the last couple of weeks. This is a product that truly deserves a pat on the back!

Disclaimer: I received the product described below at a reduced cost or free of charge to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.

It is my lifeline to my family, my GPS, and my way to communicate while I am just flat out bored when driving. I quickly realized that I can not use my phone for GPS, let alone see who is calling with the phone sitting in the seat next to me or flopped sideways in my lap.

That is where CJs Dash Mate cell phone vent clip came to the rescue. The Dash Mate easily just clips on to your heater vent and voila, phone is right in front of you! It just does not get any easier than this! Oh wait, yes it can.

My Little Big Pillow Review #mylittlebigpillow

Disclaimer: I received the product described below at no charge or a reduced price to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.


Before receiving and trying the My Little big Pillow
I never thought about a pillow for my toddler. She always snuggled up to her blanket and appeared comfortable.

Now that I have introduced the My Little Big Pillow to my two-year-old, I will never get it back! She loves it. She immediately took to the pillow. As a mom, I was a little nervous giving a pillow to a toddler, but so far so good. Besides, how can I go wrong with an organic memory foam pillow.

The case that comes with the pillow is soft! I actually thought that there was not a case since the zipper was so well hidden. The pillow really is the perfect size for a little head. It is really too small to fit in a standard pillow case, but in order to coordinate and keep the pillow clean, I tucked it inside a standard case.

Product Description from Snugg Organic:
Organic premium shredded latex pillow for toddlers and children age 2+. shredded latex is the most premium filling for pillows and that's why we have decided to use it as a filling for our children's pillows. 'My Little Big
Pillow' has been designed to provide the optimum sleep for children. Its perfect size means it is not too small like most other toddler pillows, yet still the right depth to provide the correct support for your little ones head, neck and spine. It comes with an organic soft cotton case, is hypoellergenic, dust mite resistant and durable. Each pillow has a lifelong gurantee.

MeasuPro Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor Review #MeasuPro


Disclaimer: I received the product described below at no charge, however all opinions are my own and I only recommend products that I feel are suitable for my family and readers.




I always look for the best products for my family. That includes making sure that my family remains healthy. As a nurse I look for high quality products that will hold up to continuous use and the occasional drop on the floor.

I spent the last two weeks using the  MeasuPro Wrist Blood Pressure Cuff on my patients and my family. I made sure that I put it through a rigorous test. Here is what I found.

For patient use, it is quick and easy. Since my patients are all in the geriatric population, I would like to see that the wrist cuff is a little more flexible. The stiffer material inside to hold the shape can pinch thin shin and I had several patients verbalize it was uncomfortable putting it on. The accuracy was perfect. Considering that this is going on a wrist, I was impressed.

For home use, I loved it. I immediately tested it on myself. Just like anyone else would, right? I set myself up as patient #1. Then I went and popped it on my husbands wrist. he was patient #2. After placing it on my husband and hitting start, I walked away. When I returned, the MeasuPro was sitting on the counter. I immediately asked my husband what his blood pressure was. His reply, " I don't remember and the machine turned off." I hit the #2 button and his blood pressure popped up. 153/97. BUSTED! For those of you that may not know, that is too high.

My final test was for a young child. The namesake of this blog. He is currently 7 years old and was placed on a new medication that is regularly used to decrease blood pressure. No he does not have high blood pressure at 7. He is being treated for epilepsy with chronic insomnia and ADHD. This is all new to this family as we have dealt with sleepless nights for the last 5 years. Even though I work in the medical field, does not mean that I want to shove medications at my child. But we were convinced to start a trial of medications.  The first 10 days of the new medication were a low dose, but I was still panicked. The doctor set up all sorts of rules stating things like, no fluids after 6pm. Take the pill and climb right into bed. Make sure to use the restroom before taking the pill to ensure you do not need to get up after taking the pill. If any of those are not a red flag, I am not sure what would be. So for the first night, I check his blood pressure throughout the night to make sure he did not drop too low. After day 10, the dose doubled and I repeated the same process. They may have started treatment for insomnia for him, but they may be treating me next.... ugh.

Overall, the MeasuPro Wrist Blood Pressure Monitor is a great unit to use in your home. It is accurate, easy to use, and holds up to continuous use well.



Product Description:
The BPM-50W allows you to monitor your vital blood pressure and pulse rate readings while providing you with the knowledge you need to maintain and improve your health. This automation blood pressure monitor is equipped with 2 user storage profiles, which makes it easy to store and organize readings.

Vitamin C Serum Review #vitamincserum

Disclaimer: I received the product described below for a reduced cost or at no cost to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.


As I get older, the change in my skin scares me. Yes, I said it. The wrinkles, the lines, the dark spots, they are all there.

I have tried many products that claim benefits, most of which I never experience.  So I thought that I would try something new. Why not a Vitamin C serum?

I used the Naturalico Vitamin C serum each morning and night before bed. I made sure to apply a thin layer to a clean dry face and allow the serum to thoroughly dry before going to bed or applying my normal make-up routine.

After two weeks of daily use, here is what I noticed.
  1. More even skin tone. It was Not drastic, but I figured if I continued to use the product, the over evenness would get better.
  2. Healthy glow. My skin no longer had its normal dull appearance. I now have a healthy all over glow to my face. As a younger woman, I would have disliked this look, but as I get older and the natural oils fade, this is a look that I aim for now.
  3.  Minimal reduction in fine lines. Yes, just minimal. In all fairness, this is only after 2 weeks of use and to see real results, the product should be used for 6 to 8 weeks. Maybe with continued use, I can see fewer lines. Wouldn't that be nice?
I did not notice any reduction in the couple of brown spots that I have developed from sun exposure over the years, but again, I remain hopeful that these may fade, even slightly, with continued use.


Product Description From the Manufacturer:


You Won't Find A Better Higher Quality, More Potent Effective Vitamin C Serum On The Market - with Pure 98% Natural 72% Organic ingredients

100 Glow Stick Bracelets Review.


Disclaimer: I received the product described below at no charge, however all opinions are my own and I only recommend products that I feel are suitable for my family and readers.


Who does not love glow sticks? Pull one out, crunch the thin glass layer, and you can have loads of fun.
With this package of 100 glowstick bracelets the fun lasts for days! Each container has five different colors to choose from and each color is super bright!

My kids and I ran around the house for hours shutting off the lights and making colorful trails of light. By the way, I think I had more fun than the kids.

These are also a must for outdoor use. Are you going out on a camping trip soon? Maybe you are going to an outdoor bbq now that the weather is starting to change. Grab your glowsticks! They can help you locate your kids in the dark to ensure that they do not get lost.

Get creative, find a way to use them other than the traditional bracelet or necklace! I promise you will find yourself having just as much fun as your kids.

Deluxe Aneroid Sphygmomanometer Review #AneroidSphygmomanometer

Disclaimer: I received the product below for free or reduced price to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.



For those of you that do not know, a Sphygmomanometer is more commonly called a blood pressure cuff. They are great to have around the house for those loved ones that need to have their blood pressure checked on a regular basis.

Of course there are the electric blood pressure cuffs out there. But, let me tell you, as a health care provider, I prefer not to use electric cuffs on all of my patients.  Yes, a manual sphygmomanometer takes a little more time, but know that electric blood pressure cuffs can provide inaccurate readings on people with heart abnormalities such as atrial fibrillation. 

TheSantamedical Adult Deluxe Aneroid Sphygmomanometer with black cuff and Carrying case has

1. Precision crafted manometer exceeds industry standards for accuracy
2. Nylon cuff

 Not only is this an easy to use and read sphygmomanometer, but it is more than affordable for those that need to check up on their family members health regularly. If you think that it would be better to spend more money on the electric cuffs, you may be surprised at how much more you will really be paying. 

If you do not know how to take a blood pressure manually, seriously YouTube has a video for everything! Besides practicing is half of the fun.

Dead Sea Mud Mask Review #deadseamask

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.




Sometimes I feel like there is nothing better than the feeling of fresh clean skin.  Well, for a change I found a small addition to my fresh clean skin routine that I loved.



I needed to be thorough when reviewing the Instanatural Dead Sea Mud, so I recruited a few friends. Why not right? So not only did I gather my data, but I used the data of 3 generations to see if it worked the same on all of us.

First off, the ages of guinea pigs, err, I mean testers, ranged from 10 years old all the way to 72. We all sat around and slathered mud on our skin, let it sit until dry, and rinsed it off to discuss or thoughts.

To start, lets discuss the mud itself. The texture of the mud is unlike any mud I have ever used. It is lighter going on the skin and feels a little more like a smooth gelatin than a traditional mud. I thought it was unusual at first, but it was so easy to apply that I realized this texture is amazing. The was no pushing and pulling to get it on my skin.

Hurry up and wait.
Do you every feel that way? With the Dead Sea Mud I started to feel like it was not going to dry out. Not knowing everything about the product, it was possible that it wouldn't. But I remained patient and it finally dried out. I am not sure that it really took any longer than a traditional mask, I really think that holding a conversation for more than 5 minutes with my sister was starting to make me feel like I needed to crawl out of my own skin. Normally it takes longer than five minutes, but keep in mind we had been under the same roof for three days already. That should be a worlds record for the two of us.

Get it off me!
Okay, now it was time to wash my face. I forgot how much of an effort it can be to get mud off. Okay so it may not be hard for you, but I may have put mine on a little thick. It tool a washcloth and a small effort to clean the mud off of my face. Then Voila! I had clean skin!

The much awaited outcome.
Now that I had gone through the entire process with three other people we gathered our thoughts. The 10 year old was useless. I think she would have told me she liked the mud from my backyard smeared on her face. But all of the adults agreed that our faces felt better. No, they did not "look" better, but all of us agreed our skin felt softer. Usually after a mask I feel like my skin is tight or slightly sticky. I did not get that feeling from this. Just a lightly refreshed feeling and a feeling I needed to apply a mud mask more often. If she is lucky, I might even allow my sister to join me.


Pet Stain Remover and Odor Eliminator Review


Disclaimer: I received the product described below free of charge. All opinions are my own and have not been influenced in any way.



Being a pet owner sometimes means cleaning up things we really do not want to. If my carpet could talk, I am sure you would run away plugging your ears. In fact, my husband's feet would have some great stories to make you cringe too. He is the one that usually "finds" the unwanted items left on the floor by our dogs.

Not only did I want to test this product in my home, but nearly two years ago, we had a BIG mess inside of our car. Our large dog fell ill and while in transport to the vet, lost the entire contents of her bladder. I thought that I had managed to clean it up, but the car still smelled. I even took the car to have it detailed, but unfortunately the detail shop advised me that he did not have pet odor removal products available for the car.

So my problem was not limited to the carpet in the car. The back seats were folded flat to allow the dog to rest comfortably while being transported and her lovely little gift ran between the sections of the seats. So I not only needed to get the smell out of carpet, but the actual seats needed to be cleaned also. The biggest problem, there is no visible stain to locate. The auto detailing took care of that for me. So on a stinky hunt I went.

The product could not be easier to use. I followed the instructions for an older stain and saturated the area I thought the stain was. I allowed the product to stay on a little longer than one hour, just for good measure. To completely saturate the area, I used about half the bottle. But, remember that I was "guessing" at where the odor was coming from.

After my extended "hour" passed, I used a dry towel to absorb and excess liquids from the car seat and carpet. Then I waited. I allowed the car to air dry with the windows cracked for 2 days. I had to do this in my garage since I live where the sky leaks ALL of the time.

After my two day wait, the car no noticeable foul odor. I could smell a hint of the scent of the Pro Vet Choice but it was not strong or overbearing. It is a light clean scent. As I ran my heater and warmed my car up during driving, I noticed a light foul odor again. I repeated the sames steps as before and have not had the scent return. It has been over 2 weeks and I have heated my car up and cooled it back down again.

I honestly could not be happier to have a clean smelling car again. I was beginning to wonder if I would ever get the stink out.

Silicone Heat Resistant Baking Gloves #SelectCulinary



I cannot tell you how many times I have been cooking in my over and had a hot pad slip out of my hand or an oven mitt slide right off my hand. There have also been countless times that I have used a hot pad and bumped the top of my hand on an oven rack. OUCH!

When I originally was given the opportunity to try out the silicone heat resistant gloves, I had no expectations. Once I used them, all of my oven mitts went in the trash and all of my hot pads turned into trivets for my table.

I instantly fell in love. They slide on just like a glove and protect your hands from hot objects. No sliding off my hands and no bumping exposed parts of the hands on oven racks with these little babies! Ieven gave them an unexpected test, that I would not recommend. I managed to pull them off and toss them on my stove top. No big deal, except my burner was on! EEKS! I looked at the cute little white blisters that formed on my new found love and almost cried. Then I noticed the blisters started to fade. Really?? When the gloves completely cooled, there was no evidence of my stupidity anywhere. They went right back to looking brand new! 

The only downfalls I could find:
They come in orange
They may not fit really large hands

There you go. If you don't have giant hands and do not care that these amazing gloves are orange, these belong in your kitchen!
