Every home should have a hot water bottle for numerous reasons! The most common known uses of hot water bottles include keeping you warm in bed at night which makes having one another step in being more energy efficient! I can’t imagine the cost you’d be saving on using one instead of electric blankets and heating pads!

Hot water bottles are  great for soothing aches and pains of all kinds. And are known to assist children to sleep soundly and help calm colic in babies and so much more! I’m all for products that specifically can help children to feel secure, cozy, and comfortable whether they are using it to keep warm or to cool off in the summer time.

If you are thinking about reducing your carbon footprint even more, you can use the left over water in the water bottle for feeding your plants, cleaning floor, flushing toilets, and whatever else you so happen to think up. I for one will be using my left over water to quench the thirst of my patio garden vegetables and flowers.

And with all this talk about water bottles, I’m going to point you in the direction of Warm Tradition. This company offers a large variety of hot water bottles perfect for adults and children! I really enjoyed browsing the selection of fun designs, colors, shapes, and patterns all readily available for purchase!

Warm Tradition water bottles are reusable, made out of recyclable thermoplastic, odorless, and 100% guaranteed to last! I was able to review review Plush Moo the Cow for my children but I have a strong feeling they won’t be sharing it for long! Good thing there’s many more adorable character designs available such as a giraffe, camel, lamb, a puppy, and more!

Moo the Cow has been a wonderful addition to our home! Both my son and daughter love this water bottle character a lot. And what’s not to love? Moo is quite cozy and super soft! I like that if Moo gets dirty (which she will) that I can easily slip the water bottle out and put the cover in the wash.  The extra large opening of this water bottle prevents spills when filling and the joint-less neck prevents leakage. It’s overall a design that’s made to last! Moo cost 29.95 and is worth every penny! This product is hands down a number #1 in my book!

Previous to the Norelco, I had a plug-in ConAir clippers. They cut my hair fine, but the cord was a bit of a bother. I’d normally have to use an extension cord to be able to use it where I would make the least amount of mess. The case it all came in wasn’t all that huge, but it contained a myriad of attachments and finding the right one was a bother. Cleaning the inside of the clippers was a real chore and took  far longer than it should. You had to remove the blades to do it. Enter the Norelco.

First thing I noticed was the size. It’s much more compact than my previous clippers. It plugs in to charge, so when I used it, I didn’t have to worry about the cable limiting me or getting in my way.

There are also only a total of 6 attachments, and all are small. There are two sized (width) of clippers, and one adjustable sizing attachment for each. No more digging around for that #2. The clippers and guides work together in harmony, with a pair of designators on the clippers that align with the guides so it’s very easy to see what setting it is on.

The clippers are also super easy to clean. You just take them off and can blow them out and use the included brush to remove the hair waste material. The brush has two different sides that reach and clean all the various bits you might want to clean.

There’s also a nose hair clipper attachment, and a mini shaver. I suggest keeping the latter on when you store the Norelco and attachments in the handy bag. If somehow the clipper gets turned on, it’s least likely to cause any damage. You should keep at least one attachment on to keep the Norelco clean and to keep the moving part grease on the moving parts from getting all over stuff.

The Norelco is a dream. There’s less bits to mess around with, and the bits there are all work fantastically. I cut my hair and beard in no time with none of the fuss of my previous clippers. I adore it.

If you are thinking about purchasing, The Philips Norelco Qg3270/41 Multigroom Pro, Silver can be bought for $39.99  & this item ships for FREE with Super Saver Shipping on Amazon.com.

Recently I was introduced to a really neat skin and body care product called Spongeables! This product most definitely has the ability to make your shower or bath experience that much better for many reasons!

So what is a Spongeable? It’s basically a one of a kind all in one sponge that’s infused with cleansers and skin care ingredients that make for a superb cleansing, exfoliating, massaging, and moisturizing experience unlike any other!

Each Spongeable is formulated with the finest skin care ingredients that include:

OLIVE OIL: The perfect hydration for all skin types.
GLYCERIN: A gentle cleansing agent that prevents moisture loss & helps skin maintain a good moisture balance
SHEA BUTTER: The optimum daily moisturizer for dry skin
VITAMINS A & E: Two powerfully healing antioxidants prevent premature aging and skin damage
each chosen to enhance the body’s complexion from neck to toe.

My Experience…

I was sent a Spongeables® Lavender Nectar in the 20+ uses 3.5 oz unit and a 1.2 oz, 5+ use travel size to share my thoughts on.  I found that this product lathered well and left my skin looking and feeling great. It made for a great shower experience and smelled so good without being over the top. I am usually pretty sensitive to smells so the fact that this product didn’t bother me was wonderful.

The exfoliating part of the sponge worked great on rough spots and I was really happy with the fact that I didn’t have to use multiple products while showering. Usually I have to reach for my body wash, sponge, and exfoliating things . The all in one properties of the Spongeables makes for great convenience in time saving and it’s perfect to carry a long when traveling! In fact, I am planning on taking a long the travel size Spongeable I received next month when we are on vacation!

Spongeables® come in variety of designs and scents to meet the needs of everyone in the family. I’d be interested in trying out the Grapefruit Spongeable and perhaps getting the Ducky Duo for my kids!

If you are interested in purchasing Spongeables® for yourself you can purchase them from their website and also from many well known retailers such as Walgreens, Amazon, and more. These products also are offered in already pre-made gift baskets that are great for giving to someone you love!
