Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Art Therapy Review

Enjoying the relaxing power of coloring

Coloring is very relaxing.

I think this is an awesome gift for yourself or someone that loves to color, relax or needs something calming in their life. It's a good deal for what you get. Each page is a full size sheet of paper. Hard card stock type paper, so you won't tear the pages when taking them out of the book and the pens don't really bleed through. 
This is so relaxing, so much fun and you can make some beautiful prints to frame and add your own personal touch to your home, bedroom or office. 

Below is one print I colored. I used the pens and colored pencils included in my introductory set plus some pens I already had. It was so relaxing and the few days I took to color what you see below I slept better at night. Allowing my mind and brain to calm down in the evening allowed for a really good nights sleep for me.  

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Sugar & Spice Market Giveaway

Picture

I try my best to eat Gluten Free. I get horrible migraines and stomach issues. But when I eat gluten free I don't have those issues at all. 
There's allot of choices out there for gluten free products, but not all are good. Most gluten free baking mixes I have bought are really dense and lack flavor. Making you not want to eat them or wasting your money. I was so happy when I came across Sugar & Spice Market
They sell a wide range for Gluten Free Baking Mixes and Flour.
The mixes sure aren't short on taste, texture and quality. 
I was lucky enough to try the 
​Gluten Free Brownie Mix
Below I will tell you all about it. 

Delicious Gluten Free
your whole family can enjoy!

When your craving something chocolate and only eat gluten free you can't just stop in your local store and pick something up or grab something out of your cupboard. 
But if you keep some Sugar & Spice Market Gluten Free Brownie Mix on hand you can whip up a batch of yummy brownies in no time. 
I liked these brownies so much and I am not a big sweets eater, that I forgot to take a picture of the end results. But believe me they were yummy. My boyfriend who usually will never eat anything gluten free, he says it all tastes gross, loved these. He said they were moist, flavorful and delicious. I have to agree with him. 
Picture

These rich, fudgy, and moist brownies are irresistible.
This 22.4oz package makes a “family size”, 13″x9″ pan of brownies.
All you need to add is eggs, butter and water. 
If you eat/cook gluten free you know that eggs and butter are both gluten free products.
​So this mix and finished product is 100% gluten free. 

After baked the bag makes about 22 brownies that are 152 calories each. 
But 152 yummy calories, so well worth it =)

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Biggest Little Popcorn Co. Rhode Island Review & Giveaway

Picture

Biggest Little Popcorn Co Rhode Island has the most delicious English Butter Toffee Baked PopCorn that is air popped and baked in a process that sets them apart. The PopCorn is light, crunchy and tender. They achieve this by cooking and baking in small batches in their Warren, Rhode Island kitchen.  Using only the finest ingredients; sweet cream butter, pure cane sugar, non - GMO PopCorn, the best oils and spices to achieve this oh so scrumptious PopCorn.
Picture

Biggest Little Popcorn Company was so kind to have sent me 5 of their different flavors to sample. They sent me 5 bags of their delicious flavors. I received Season's English Spice, Sweet Masala Curry, Rhode Island Coffee Milk, Mexican Vanilla and Original Butter. My very favorite is Mexican Vanilla......yummy toffee and hint of delicious. All the flavors are very subtle so even the Coffee Milk flavor is not over powering. Its a very wonderful mixture of sweet butter toffee with a hint of coffee aftertaste.

Picture

The Season's English Spice taste like the holidays. It is a delicious blend of spice, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, ginger. I taste the apple and so it reminds me of warm cinnamon apple cider or pie. 

​If you are a lover of Curry then your favorite will be the Sweet Masala Curry for sure. You will taste the sweet butter toffee at first and then get a spicy curry aftertaste.

My next favorite by far is Original Butter. I could eat the entire bag of this popcorn. Holy cow it is soooooo good. I love that Biggest Little Popcorn Company coats each perfectly popped kernel with their English Butter Toffee and then adds the different flavors on top to enhance it.

The flavors I did not get to try are Lime Light, Traditional Banana Toffee, Orangetine and Hot Cinnamon. They are special orders and each requires a minimum of 14oz per order.

The price of these heavenly bags of popcorn are $5 for 3.33oz, $7.50 for 5oz, $10.50 for 7oz and $20 for 14oz. If you order in advanced they also do special orders for parties.

Aurorae's collection of eco-friendly aromatherapy candles come with the intention of helping you concentrate on a particular state of mind while meditating or creating a calm personal space in your bedroom, bathroom, office or living space. Light the candle, breathe, and focus with an open mind. 

This candle will actually work in a small room with just the lid off. I had mine sitting in the bathroom before I lit it for two days. I could smell the wonderful lavender scent every time I walked into the bathroom. 
I finally lite it the other day. Now I can smell it not only in the bathroom but in the living room as well. 

This candle is not too overwhelming. It's also non-toxic.

First I have to start off by saying I really like the way they package the products. 
Your name or the name of the person you get this for will be printed on the front of the bottles. Making it a very personalized gift. Second, it's a really good deal for an excellent product, that works. 

I was nervous about when I wanted to start using my morning and night serums. The directions state that it may cause your face to break out a bit in the beginning. Since holidays were approaching and I was going to see family I haven't seen in some time I didn't want my face looking bad. But I went ahead and gave it a shot, since I had a good 2 plus weeks to go. 
To my surprise I had no breakouts. Only wonderful beautiful healthy looking skin. 

No matter if you have dry, oily or combination skin, this will work for you. 
Just rub into your face 2-3 drops morning and evening. You will wonder like I did about putting oil on your face, especially if you have oily skin. But don't panic it won't make your face oilier. It actually evens it out and helps dissolves the oils in your skin. Leaving you with a beautiful. softer, smoother face. 
This serum is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL

Picture

Picture

All this for less than $15.00 a month*
When you purchase the AM/PM 2-bottle set on Autoship for $29.97, every other month,
your cost is only $14.99 per month for both bottles (each bottle lasts about 2 months).
The 3-Step Amazingly Beautiful Skin Care System Skin care has been revolutionized with “Amazingly Beautiful” the world’s first “skin supplement”. It actually feeds your skin what it needs in order for it to be luminous, beautiful and healthy.

We know that it is unconventional to apply oil to your skin, but we guarantee you will have the best skin of your life by following these simple instructions:

Step 1 – APPLY

  • Your skin recognizes Amazingly Beautiful as food and therefore will be hungry for it and may require more drops initially.
  • Place 2 to 3 drops in the palm of your hand each morning (AM Moisturizer) and evening (PM Revitalizer) and, using your middle finger, gently spread over your entire face including neck and forehead in a circular motion. Do not rub in. (You will need more than 2-3 drops for the first few weeks.)
  • If there is any excess after 3 minutes, blot your face with a tissue or damp cloth. There shouldn’t be any excess, so if this happens you may be using too much product.
  • When used as a make-up remover, place 1-2 drops on a Q-tip or cloth and wipe away make up.

Step 2 – DETOX

Your skin is probably used to name-brand products made from creams, chemicals, and other toxic ingredients that give your skin results, but by shocking your skin into submission.

If you’ve used makeup or commercial skin care products for any length of time, your skin is probably clogged and burdened with the build-up of excess oils and environmental junk that comes from the ingredients in these products. Amazingly Beautiful takes about 30 days to detoxify your skin from these chemicals and ingredients so that your skin can thrive naturally. Results vary for each person.

What to expect during detoxification…

Within the first 30 days of using Amazingly Beautiful, you may experience a brief blemish breakout. This typically lasts from 1-2 days, possibly up to a week. The botanical oils in Amazingly Beautiful gently and naturally remove toxins and build up that have accumulated over time from the use of chemical-laden skincare products and cosmetics. If a breakout does occur, this is actually a really good sign, as your skin will be ridding itself of toxins that have built up over time. It’s important not to get discouraged during this brief detoxifying period, because once it ends, your skin will emerge with a more beautiful, young looking, radiant appearance. Results vary for each person.

Step 3 – THRIVEWhile most people experience noticeable changes within a few days, even greater benefits are achieved in the first 3 months, and then with continued use thereafter. Amazingly Beautiful will take the place of anti-aging creams, cleansers firming creams, exfoliaters, moisturizers, day/night creams, make-up removers, body lotions, nutrient pacts and more.

Picture

We have developed a product that is ALIVE – made of cold-pressed botanical oils from fruits, herbs and nuts. This formula has the correct species of each herb, fruit and nut with the exact properties needed for each and the precise amount of each ingredient to give us a perfectly designed product to beautify and work in harmony with our skin.

A. M. Ingredients: 100% Pure Botanical oils of almond, orange, lemon, avocado and olive.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Tastee Apple Review & 10% off on Cyber Monday 11/30/15 ONLY

Oh my!
These were SO good. 

I received 3 YUMMY apples covered in the most wonderful sweets with a wonderful crisp apple in the middle. 
This family owned business knows that they're doing. 
I am a huge fan of apples and when you add a not too sweet but wonderful/interesting topping you get one of the BEST apples you could ever have. 
Perfectly-ripe apples are “sticked” in made-from-scratch, small-batch, kettle-cooked caramel or a candy coating. After the apples cool, they are rolled in gooey toppings like milk, dark or white chocolate and then rolled in fresh peanuts, pecans, cookies, or pretzels. The candy and caramel apples are then carefully packaged, stored and shipped to stores throughout the country. The company continues to grow and create new and delicious, apple treats each year to satisfy both new and loyal customers.
Tastee Apple’s extensive quality control process is very hands on and eyes on. This is how we ensure that no apple earns the Tastee label unless it as fresh and perfect as it can be for your complete enjoyment and 100% satisfaction (our guarantee). From our state-of-the-art processing facilities in Ohio, we have been crafting the #1 selling Caramel Apple for four decades—that’s about 290 million apples sold! But it’s quality that we are most concerned with. That’s why each and every Tastee Apple has not only a generous coating of our mouth-watering caramel and lots of other complimentary confections, but the most important ingredient of all: family pride.
Step 1: Selecting
Because it would be virtually impossible to self-grow all of the sizes and types of apples we depend upon to make the best quality products, we partner with some of the country’s finest and most reputable apple growers. We are so choosy about the apples we pick, our experts reject about ten percent of the apples that arrive at our facilities. These apples aren’t wasted, however; they find a good home with other companies who find them marketable for their purposes or need raw apples for juice or cider. 

Step 2: Testing

A trained eye can tell a lot of about an apple just by feeling and looking at it, including type, size, and potential damage or decay. Whereas most—if not all—of our competitors are satisfied to stop there, Tastee goes a critical step further. That last thing we want is for our customers to bite into an apple that’s not perfect. By that, we mean either hard (not ripe enough) or mushy (overripe)! So we measure the firmness of our fruit to determine which meet apples meet our crispness requirements and which do not. Only those that pass go on to Step 3.
Step 3: Cleansing
Tastee Apple recognizes that reducing food safety risks is a responsibility shared by everyone involved in the food system. We take our responsibilities in this area very seriously. In addition to keeping our facilities immaculate, we follow a very thorough process to ensure that the fruit we use is clean. This includes water washing and brushing, as well as sanitizing, while demonstrating the utmost diligence to prevent bruising and maintain the integrity of the fruit.
Step 4: Decorating
Next, our shiny clean perfectly ripe apples are “sticked” and readied for the decorating process. You probably already know that every Tastee Apple is dipped in one very special ingredient: our made-from-scratch, small-batch, kettle-cooked caramel. After the caramel-enrobed apple cools, we take the next steps, depending on the type of apple we are creating for our discerning customers. Our Fantasy Gourmet Apples get rolled in lots of goodies, like milk and white chocolate morsels and fresh peanuts or pecans. Our Super Premium Gourmet Apples, after being coated with caramel, are also hand-dipped in premium milk, dark or white chocolate, then tumbled in yummy nuts, chocolate morsels or pretzels. After that, they are drizzled in more chocolate. Our traditional Caramel Apples are generously dressed, too, to enable customers to enjoy four great varieties (Caramel, Candy, Turtle, and Jelly, as well as Plain Caramel).
Step 5: Packing
Each finished Tastee Apple is carefully packaged for optimal product freshness and protection. The packaging design of our Fantasy Gourmet Apples and Super Premium Gourmet Apples are pretty enough to gift!
Step 6: Shipping
After spending a very short time in our 45-degree warehouse, Tastee Apples are on their way to your local grocery store, in refrigerated trucks, usually arriving in 24 hours or less! When refrigerated at home after purchase, Tastee Fantasy Gourmet Apples can last up to 45 days; Tastee Super Premium Gourmet Apples can last up to 30 days; Tastee Caramel Apples can last up to two weeks.
Step 7: Enjoying
The best step of all, we leave completely up to you!

Fantasy Gourmet White Pretzel Wonder is the first Tastee Apple I tried. It was so good. I am a big fan of pretzels. 
So you take this wonderful and crisp green apple, cover it in caramel, white chocolate and crushed pretzels. So delicious. Since the apple is so big you could cut this up and serve it at a  party.
You would get 8 or more slices to share. But I was not about to share.
I did have to share with my boyfriend, but he didn't like the white chocolate very much so gave me most of his half. 
I savored this and made it last 2 days. 
Excellent mix of not too sweet toppings on a crisp apple. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hmmm. Not sure if you want something smooth, healthy, sweet, or crunchy?
Tastees Fantasy Gourmet White Pretzel Wonder Apples have you covered!
With its pretty bow and fancy appearance, you may want to wait and admire your Fantasy Gourmet Apple before eating it. But don’t wait too long! Someone may not be able to resist it, and if that happens, you will miss out big time. Why?
We start with a jumbo apple that is guaranteed fresh and crispy then coat it in our delicious, small-batch, handmade caramel. After that cools, we roll it in mini-white chocolate morsels AND crunchy, pretzel pieces.
It’s a taste sensation of crispy toppings, smooth caramel and a sweet apple all rolled together! 
Whether you give these apples as gifts, share them with friends and family members or keep them all to yourself, get ready for pure enjoyment and satisfaction!
I am not a fan of cookie. Too sweet for me, so this one I let my boyfriend have, the whole thing!
I was surprised he wanted it, since he didn't like the white chocolate on the pretzel apple. I think it just wasn't sweet enough for him. He ate this whole Fantasy Gourmet Cookies ‘N Cream Apple after dinner. 
I took one small slice, remember you do need to slice these and before you do that they need to sit out for a bit or you won't be able to slice through them.  It was good but a little too sweet for me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Crunchy cookies, a creamy white-chocolate coating, smooth caramel and a crisp apple on a stick… all wrapped up in a bow. Whats not to love?
If you are celebrating a special occasion, or just want to savor a delicious treat, Tastee’s Fantasy Gourmet Cookies ‘N Cream Caramel Apples are the perfect treat.
First, we pick perfectly ripe, crisp apples that go through our 7-step, rating process. Then, we coat the apples in our home-made caramel made in small, kettle-cooked batches. Next, we add a special, white-chocolate coating and then dip the apple in chocolate cookie-crumbs. For a final touch, we add a big bow and carefully pack the apple in our unique packaging to keep it fresh and protected during shipping.
If you want something a little different, these 8 or 9 ounce Cookies ‘N Cream apples offer just the right amount of sweetness accompanied by a crisp, healthy apple. They make great gifts and are the perfect snack any time!
YUMMY!
Fantasy Gourmet Double Chocolate Delight
This apple is sweet, you can't sit and eat the whole thing at once. 
This one is perfect for a few people. Perfect for your next holiday party. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Are you looking for the perfect gift or a nice, chocolate break for yourself?
Let us introduce you to our Fantasy Gourmet Double Chocolate Apples.
More than just chocolate, this tasty treat-on-a-stick offers a combination of caramel,
white and dark chocolate and crunch!
The perfect gift. This chocolate apple is wrapped in a bow and ready to eat. We start with a crisp apple guaranteed fresh. Then we coat it in our special kettle cooked caramel. When it is cooled we dip the entire apple in dark chocolate and then drizzle white chocolate over the top.
The apple looks absolutely delicious, and tastes even better when you bite into it!
Now, are you ready to treat yourself to some chocolaty goodness?
Jelly Apples
This is a smaller red apple, not as crisp as the others but still very good. 
It has a totally different texture and taste. I LOVE coconut. I wish this was on the big green apples. 
It would of been my favorite. 
The outside is covered in a soft caramel with yummy flaked coconut. This apple you can just eat off the stick. I did cut mine up so I could share, but ended up getting the whole thing to myself. Was so excited. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Have you ever had a jelly apple?
While it may sound strange to many of you, this is a well-known treat on the East Coast of the United States.
Jelly apples have a misleading name as they do not contain jelly, rather a soft caramel like shell. Jelly apples will surprise you and here’s why.
You bite into the apple expecting a crisp taste, instead your teeth sink into a gooey caramel with a sweet candy flavor. The coconut topping adds a crunchy texture and combines with the flavor of the fresh apple underneath.
Even if you don’t like candy apples or coconut, you may like this treat because the flavors combine together to create a unique taste sensation unlike anything else.
Jelly Apples Do Not Contain Jelly!
A popular, Coney Island seaside-treat, we received many requests to make these jelly apples as they were simply unavailable. Because of this, we conducted research and tested many different flavors and consistencies in 1980 to create our unique recipe for jelly apples that we sell today.
After selecting apples through our 7-step rating process which is backed by our SQF certification, we add our family-recipe, jelly-coating that is scratch-made and kettle-cooked. Then, we roll the fruit in a fresh, coconut topping. There is no jelly or jam in the apple-coating!
The jelly apples have an unexpected consistency and delicious, sweet taste the whole family will enjoy.
Want to try something different and surprise your friends with an unexpected, tasty (and healthy) treat?
Tastee apples would make for a perfect holiday gift giving idea. 
Or serve them at your next holiday party. 
You get 3 Fantasy Gourmet apples for $24.95
​(4 flavors to choose from)
each apple comes individually wrapped 
so this makes 3 individual gifts. 
Perfect for neighbors, teachers, mailman, or just about anyone. 
The smaller caramel apples (comes in 5 different styles/flavors) are only
$24.95 a dozen, 12 gifts you get out of this one. 
Or you can get the Super Premium Apple for $19.95 each. 
These come in 4 separate flavors. 

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Milk Magic Review & Giveaway.... Got Milk?

Milk Magic is the healthy way to make milk fun. 
I am not a milk drinker at all. I do drink soy or rice milk from time to time, but I never really liked the taste of it.

I thought this would be gross, just the thought of blue milk sounded gross to me. 
I was wrong!
It was really good, the best part is you add as much or as little as you want. Making the milk sweeter with the more you add. The recommended is 1 squeeze for a 8 oz glass of milk. I start with 1/2 a squeeze, for most all the flavors that was the perfect amount for me. The blue raspberry tastes just like it sounds, blue raspberry. I'm an adult and like it, so just think how much kids would enjoy this sweet raspberry milk. The best part is this adds no additional calories to your cup of milk. Plus it's low in sugar and naturally flavored.

I received two other flavors not listed on the website, Cappuccino and Chocolate Candy Cane. 
I use the Chocolate Candy Candy with a cup of hot chocolate. Just be careful since it's hot and your sitting out of a straw, but it turns an ordinary cup of chocolate into extraordinary. 
The Cappuccino is excellent too. 
Just pour a cup of milk/soy milk or any sort of milk you like. 
Add a got milk? straw and sip. 
No need to cut the ends, just start sipping. The small beads inside the straw will melt when the milk passes by. 
This does not change the color of your milk, the
flavor goes right into your mouth from the straw never into your cup. 

These would be perfect for your kids school lunches.
Especially if they aren't big milk drinkers. 
They will surly drink milk now.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Hang-O-Matic 

This is so cool. I wish I had this when I was decorating the house after our remodel. 
It would of come in handy. 
But at least now when I decide to hang something new I have it. 
Hang-O-Matic would make a perfect housewarming gift. 
It's so easy to use. 
Just 3 simple steps

Align two marking points
Level and press on the wall
Use nail, screw or anchor
STEP 1

Align two marking points
First, use Hang-O-Matic’s built-in sliding anchors to measure the distance between two holes or hangers on the back of any item.
STEP 2

Level and press on the wall
​Second, use the built in level bubble to level Hang-O-Matic on the wall. With a firm press on both ends, Hang-O-Matic makes two perfect
​marks on the wall.
STEP 3

Use nail, screw or anchor
Then, use any hardware, any size to hang it perfect, every time.
It truly is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
No more crooked pictures. 
The Hang-O-Matic has a triangle that leaves dimples in  your wall to indicate exactly where the nails/anchors should be placed. This makes hanging a picture so easy. It will always be even since there's a built in level. 
You can measure up to 6 feet with the Hang-O-Matic
Made of high grade plastic that can be collapsed down to nine inches for easy storage and it's even pocket sized. 
The perfect thing is no pencil is needed. This really helps so your not trying to fumble
around with the third hand you don't have. 

Great DIY interior home gift for pretty much anyone. Would make for a perfect stocking stuffer. 

Our Story
Before the creation of the Hang-O-Matic, it was nearly impossible to hang a picture or a shelf on the wall perfectly straight.
One day, Karina was left in charge of decorating her home office and decided to hang a shelf on the wall. After leaving multiple holes in the wall and not getting the nails to match up with the key holes on the back of the shelf, she and her husband Jared were both frustrated. Not only did they have to take multiple trips to the hardware store, but they then needed to patch and repaint the wall to get it ready to try hanging the shelf again. Luckily, Jared took over and successfully hung it in one try.
After the shelf was up, Karina began decorating and put her irreplaceable snow globe on the shelf-surface—she received it from her in-laws, and they customized it to play their wedding song from the 70’s—needless to say it held a lot of sentimental value. Before she could finish decorating, the snow globe fell, shattered to pieces, and water spilled everywhere. They didn’t understand what had gone wrong, as the shelf appeared to be straight. They had to make yet another trip to the hardware store to purchase a level and quickly realized that the shelf was off by just a fraction of an inch.
That was when they thought that there had to be a better way.
The Hang-O-Matic can be purchased online HERE for $14.95 plus shipping or
you can find a store near you by clicking HERE.
I have seen the Hang-O-Matic at my local hardware store.

Each step in putting together Magformers is a part of everyday learning. They break it down to the word "TEAM" it's an acronym for Science,Technology, Engineering, Art and Math Education. 
You child will have to think and use skills that they learn on a everyday basis.
Incorporating the "TEAM" theme is a really good idea. It's a toy that makes you think not just play with. 
I think kids nowadays need more "thinking" besides the learning they get at school, kids don't have to really think like when I was a kid. With cell phones, tv, computers, gaming stations they just sit around, not much thinking is needed for those things. With Magformers you really need to use your brain. 
Not only are these educational toys, they are fun.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Mrs. Renfro's Salsa & Barbecue Sauce Review & Giveaway

Picture

I have done quite a few reviews and giveaways for Mrs. Renfro's salsas but originally I was introduced to Mrs. Renfro's from a man named Huey. We have a vacation home in Rocky Point Mexico and Huey lived a few homes down. He was a full time resident of Rocky Point and a retired tug boat captain from Seattle. He was older and wasn't able to get back the US often and once asked me to bring him a case of Mrs. Renfro's Green Salsa. I always thought it was so odd, your in Mexico where they make wonderful salsa but you want me to bring you something I can just pick up from my local market. After a few times bringing it down (he went through about a case a month) I decided to give it a try, it must be good if he uses that much. 
He was right, thanks to Huey I have been hooked on Mrs. Renfro's Salsa ever since. Green is not my favorite though, like it, allot, but Roasted Garlic Salsa is the BEST! I can eat salsa on just about everything. I put it in my salad instead of dressing, on eggs, chips, in recipes. I  have even made some muffins that had the salsa in them, they were breakfast muffins. Salsa is the best. You can even use it as a veggie dip.  

Then Mrs. Renfro's has to come out with a BBQ Sauce. 
YUMMY!
Spicy and Garlic is my favorite. 
My stomach might not always agree with my decisions but the hotter the better. 
Mrs. Renfro's has a Ghost Pepper Barbecue Sauce that is to die for. 

Picture

This barbecue sauce is excellent on chicken, pork and beef, but best to me on chicken. 
It has a kick to it, so if you don't like heat, this isn't the barbecue sauce for you. 
I really like it, I love things hot!!!
It has the heat and a nice tangy barbecue sauce taste. 

GHOST PEPPER BARBECUE SAUCE
$3.95
Do you love barbecue sauce but crave a lot more heat? Made from one of the hottest peppers in the world, this tantalizing sauce has as much fire as flavor. Use with caution – it’s scary hot!

GO GOURMET WITH MRS. RENFRO And go back for seconds! Now, Mrs. Renfro's BBQ Sauces are GLUTEN-FREE and contain NO high-fructose corn syrup. Grab a jar, or 3, slather on the sauce and fire up the grill!

Picture

HOT! HOT! HOT! HOT!
and don't forget, yes this is VERY HOT, but VERY GOOD, if you can handle the heat, this is an excellent salsa. It's thin, not full of chunks, but full of heat. 
Excellent salsa on eggs and even better on shredded beef tacos. 
I made some cheese enchiladas the other day and drizzled some of the
Ghost Pepper Salsa on top. YUMMY! Yet HOT!

GHOST PEPPER SALSA
$3.95
Not for the faint of heart! Made from one of the hottest peppers in the world, Habanero's got nothing on the Ghost. Try it if you dare, but beware. The heat may terrify your taste buds, while the flavor leaves you screaming for more.
The list of ingredients is great, check it out

Ingredients
Tomatoes, Water, Jalapeno Peppers, Onions, Green Chile Peppers, Distilled Vinegar, Corn Starch, Salt, Ghost Peppers, Garlic, Spices, Cilantro
(I am always a fan of a food that I can pronounce every ingredient in it)
Picture

For those of you that like HOT but don't want to burn your mouth off, this is a perfect salsa. 
Habanero Salsa is also a thin salsa, no big chunks. Excellent anything you put salsa on. I love dipping carrots in this salsa or adding it to my salad. Plus it's only 15 calories for 2 Tbsp. so better then most salad dressings.
Plus so much tastier. 
HABANERO SALSA
$3.95
For the true pepper aficionado, we’ve cranked up the heat on our classic salsa with this famously fiery chili. Not just for dipping, it makes Divine Vegetarian Breakfast Burritos.
Picture

Something brand new to me, is Chow Chow. 
I had no idea what it was so I asked Mrs. Renfro's if I could give it a try. 
They sent me a bottle of Mild Chow Chow. 
I added it to my hard boiled eggs and made a egg salad sandwich, oh my was it yummy!
I am now addicted. So now that Mrs. Renfro's has not only got me hooked on their salsa's and barbecue sauce, they now have me addicted to their chow chow and i'm so happy they do. 
Chow Chow is like a super yummy relish. I think it would be excellent on a hot dog too, or with egg salad (like I tried) or anything you want a mild relish like yumminess on. 
MILD CHOW CHOW
$3.95
It doesn't get any more southern than this! A mix of cabbage, onion, sweet pepper, vinegar and pickling spices, this classic condiment is a tradition in beans and tuna fish salad alike.

Chow Chow comes in Six different styles/tastes from Mrs. Renfro's

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ SmartSilk All Natural Silk Filled Luxury Bedding Review and Discount Code.  ~40% off~

If you want a perfect nights sleep then you need SmartSilks wonderful Pillow Protector. 
It not only wicks away moisture but also keeps your head cool. 
I love sleeping with this pillow protector. Since starting to use it, I have been getting better nights of pure sleep. 

You will NO LONGER need to flip the pillow over looking for cool spots, with SmartSilk Pillow Protector you will have a cool spot where you set your head all night. 

The SmartSilk™ all natural silk filled Pillow Protector made with exclusive patent pending technology ensures an increased level of comfort with its smart blend of breathable and moisture wicking materials.

You will feel the difference the first night you use your SmartSilk Pillow Protectors. I put one on my pillow and my boyfriends. We both laid our heads down to a cool and soft pillow cover. 
We both read for about 45 minutes before going to sleep and both were happy that in that 45 minutes we didn't have to re-fluff or flip our pillows trying to get a cool spot, our heads just stayed cool where we put them. 

I really liked how the Pillow Protectors zip closed and stay closed, unlike most pillow cases that if you toss and turn all night sometimes your pillow case will fall off (iv'e had that happen many times) There's not just a zipper on the side, but it's inside of a flap so you don't really see it and it makes for a nicer looking pillow. This won't only insure the pillow case comes on, it will keep your pillow clean.

The Pillow Protector is
- All natural silk fill liner
- All natural cotton outer shell
- Moisture wicking properties help to reduce effects of night sweats
- Water repellent non-woven material
- Breathable materials: no longer need to flip the pillow around looking for a cool spot
- Keeps your skin moisturized

Feel the difference with The SmartSilk™ Shield Advantage, offering you a cleaner sleeping environment. Simply encase your pillow with our pillow protector that has been certified asthma & allergy friendly™ and you will be shielded against allergens, dust mites, and pet dander.

The Smart Temperature Advantage offers you an incredibly comfortable place to rest your head for an uninterrupted night's sleep. The SmartSilk™ Pillow Protector is constantly, naturally and automatically adjusting to your body temperature, keeping your head and neck at the perfect temperature in addition to its
​ moisture wicking properties.

The SmartSilk™ All Natural Bedding Collection provides all season comfort and the luxury of sleeping in breathable silk fill along with a soft cotton finish, offering a more comfortable night’s sleep. The SmartSilk™ Luxury Bedding Collection is created and produced in-house and was developed and designed in Canada.

HOW THE SMARTSILK™ STORY BEGAN
After more than 50 years of comfortable sleep, Yair (founder) all of a sudden found himself waking up most mornings congested, wheezing, coughing and often with watery eyes. Yair was diagnosed with an allergy related to dust mites. After speaking with a long time friend, Harry (founder), he discovered that he also had developed the same condition. After researching allergy related solutions, they had learnt that with the proper bedding much of their discomfort could be improved without the use of any medication.
Unfortunately, there was not much variety regarding allergy bedding. Most of the options either consisted of synthetics or chemically treated products that were either too stiff, too heavy or felt like you were sleeping on plastic.
Having a combination of 50+ years in the textile industry, they had committed themselves to developing a chemical free, all natural and luxurious bedding collection that would provide a comfortable, clean and uninterrupted night’s sleep.
With these objectives at the center, they had set out on their mission. After thorough product development, focus group trials and extensive laboratory testing, The SmartSilk™ Bedding Collection was developed.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Lovely Candy Co. Review & Giveaway

Picture

I LOVE licorice.
If I am going to eat candy (that is rare) it will always be licorice.

Especially if it's from the Lovely Candy Co.

Holiday Gift Review ~ KuKuRuZa Gourmet Popcorn Review & Giveaway 

                      KuKuRuZa Gourmet Popcorn
                                 ~ Seattle's Gourmet Popcorn Company ~
 

KuKuRuZa popcorn company began in 2004 in their home using a simple kitchen range and then expanded into the garage with specialty popcorn equipment before they opened their first retail shop. Now they have 18 KuKuRuZa shops in Washington, Japan, Korea, Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
Picture

KuKuRuZa offers 18 year-round flavors and 2 rotating seasonal flavors so there is something for everyone. They have delicious traditional flavor as well as some very different flavors so trying something new is never an issue. They were kind enough to send me their Flight Carton to review which includes 7 different flavors. I am a huge popcorn fan so I was soooooo excited to do this review. They sent me their amazing Flight Carton which is seven, approximately 2 cup portions and it included their 2 signature flavors Seattle Coffee and Hawaiian Salted Caramel and then I got to choose 5 flavors. I picked Cheddar Cheese, White Cheddar, Jalapeno White Cheddar, S'mores and Classic Caramel. 
Picture

My all time favorite flavor of course is the Cheddar Cheese. KuKuRuZa Cheddar Cheese is perfection. It's a nice thick coat of cheese and so evenly spread across each large puffy kernel every bite is heaven. Of course I ate all of this flavor first and had a hard time sharing any. The popcorn is super light, fluffy and full of flavor.

I never really ate sweet popcorn other than caramel corn so I decided to try the S'mores since I super love S'mores when I go camping. I was AMAZED at how delicious it was. Oh my gosh!!! It's not just a little drizzle of chocolate and marshmallow like I expected. It's sooo much more!! It has caramel corn that's drizzled in chocolate and marshmallow PLUS pieces of marshmallow coated in chocolate and then there actual chunks of gram cracker mixed it. I can not explain how yummy this flavor is. I'm seriously going to be purchasing this flavor for them on the regular.

Picture

I was also very pleased with their signature flavor Hawaiian Salted Caramel. It is made of their sweet Caramel popcorn but then as you are eating it you get the perfect amount of salty after flavoring. It truely is the perfect blend of sweet and salty.

​I picked the Jalapeno White Cheddar for my boyfriend to try because he is a fan of the more hot and spicy things in life. He really loved it and ate the whole bag himself. I ate the whole bag of regular White Cheddar and it was seriously delicious. Each kernel is light and crisp and fluffy. It amazes me how they get each kernel to pop so perfectly and evenly and all the same size. It never turns out like that at home. LOL

The Seattle Coffee is excellent if you are a true fan of coffee. It's not very sweet and really does taste just like coffee. This company as I mentioned before does have multiple locations in Seattle so of course they have perfected the flavor of their Seattle Coffee popcorn

I really would love to try many more of there flavors, in particular the Maple Bacon and Vinegar Sea Salt. 

This popcorn makes the most amazing gifts for the holidays or any other occasion you might have throughout the year. It's a great pick my up to send to someone who might need a lift or a smile or just to let them know you are thinking of them. There are multiple gifts to choose from including 4 sized tins ranging from one gallon to 6 1/2 gallons.

You can choose many different gift items like their KuKuRuZa Popcorn Pack. This pack of 5, 2 cup bags is a great way to enjoy some KuKuRuZa as an afternoon snack. The small bags are the perfect addition to lunch bags and they make great stocking stuffers. This pack is only $19.

The Popcorn Variety Pack is a fantastic value. The pack contains four half-gallon bags of your choice of KuKuRuZa gourmet popcorn varieties and cost $49.

They also offer favors if you would like to add this as a gift to your guests at either a wedding or baby shower or even a birthday party.


Picture

Picture

I think it is pretty cool that they also offer the kernels by themselves for only $6.99. You can choose from two types of kernels, Butterfly Popcorn Kernels and Mushroom Popcorn Kernels so that you can pop your own perfect popcorn at home. They also sell a very sleek KuKuRuZa Popcorn Mug that comes with a bag of their delicious gourmet popcorn.
Picture

This kind a generous company has offered one of our very, very lucky readers to have a chance to win the same Flight Carton that I received. The winner must provide KuKuRuZa with their email address so they can contact you to choose to flavors of your choice. This delicious prize has a value of $29 and I promise you will dance as you eat your gourmet popcorn.

Over $450 million has been given to thousands of charities since 1982. 

I have been very lucky to do quite a few reviews from Newmans Own over the last few years. 
I love each and every product they send me and I buy many of their products at my local market. 
Some of my favorites are,
​ Newman O's, Cranberry Walnut Salad Dressing & Organic Green Tea ( I take a cup iced to work every morning) and my all time favorite is the Orange Chocolate Chip Cookies, ow my these are the BEST!
Just sitting here writing this review I can taste them =)

Picture

Newman's Own has lots of different product, but not too many that it's overwhelming.
All are very good quality, some are All Natural & Organic. 
Everything I have tried I like. 
You can find Newman's Own products in your local market, they even have a Where-to-Buy on their site to help you find a store near you. 
I have found that no matter what market I go to they have a selection of Newman's Own products. Usually in the health food isles but not always. 
Keep your eye out and try something out, you will love it and so will your family. 

*Below is the products I received for this review*

FIG NEWMANS

Low Fat Fig Newman's are the BEST fig cookies I have ever had. They are so moist, the outside breading isn't dry at all and they have a wonderful not too sweet, just perfect fig taste.
I have always loved the taste of figs, even as a young girl.  I remember begging my Mom to buy fig cookies when my brother was begging her to buy chocolate chip ones. I just love the taste and texture of them.
They are now my after dinner snack or in-between ​​lunch and dinner snack with a cup of hot tea. Fig Newman's are the best brand of fig cookies I have ever had. I am not just saying that because I am doing this review, I am saying it because it's 100% true.
They would be excellent set out on a tray during your holiday par​ties.

These cookies come in LOW FAT & FAT FREE
they taste the same to me, one is just less calories. But looking those calories does't affect the taste at all. 

Picture

Fig Newmans also come in Strawberry, not my favorite but they are good. I came home and my boyfriend had ate the whole bag, so I guess they were his favorite!
Picture

I have not tried these but think I will pick some up. Anything dairy free is always better for me.
Picture

These YUMMY Newman-O's come in more then one flavor. Below are them all......
Crème Filled Chocolate Cookies Made With Organic Flour And Organic Sugar -

My boyfriend loved that other cookie brand like this... I get them for him from time to time and he sits around with a glass of milk dunking them and eating them. I have had maybe 2 in 5 years. I think they are gross and hard. Since I don't drink milk I don't dunk mine.... THEN along comes Newman-O's and now i'm addicted, Thanks Newmans!
These are so yummy, I don't even use milk, the chocolaty shell is just the perfect consistency, not too crunchy and not too soft. The creamy white filling is to die for. I just LOVE these and yes again my boyfriend ate the whole bag, but this time in 2 days. I got a total of 3. So I went to my store and bought more lol but he only gets 4 a day. It's only fair, right? =)

My boyfriend told me I had to mention that he too thinks the
Newman-O's are SO MUCH BETTER
then that other brand of cookies. He said he only wants these for now on.
​He is a cookie monster so if he likes them, trust me you will. 
Picture

Organic Pretzel Sticks
These are good. I have them as a snack when I don't have the Fig Newmans. 

If you read the back of the package of what's in these, you will be very impressed. They are organic, yummy and a great snack for kids lunches, putting out at your next holiday gathering or just anytime you need something good to eat. 
Not too salty or dry. 
Just a good slight salt snack. 

The Newmans Pretzels come in a wide variety of flavors and some with and without salt. This is the first set of sticks I have had. We buy the rods from time to time. They are perfect for a hiking snack. 

This is the ingredients list: Organic Unbleached Wheat Flour, Organic Rye Flour, Organic Brown Rice Syrup, Organic Sunflower Oil, Organic Barley Malt, Yeast, Salt and Soda. (in the salted pretzel sticks)

I am not a big sweets eater. But when I do eat something sweet I prefer licorice. 
My favorite is black licorice. 
Newmans Licorice Twists come in 3 regular flavors and 4 sour flavors.

STRAWBERRY, POMEGRANATE and  BLACK Licorice Twists are the plain flavors. ALL are really good and are made with Organic Sugar. 

SOUR APPLE, SOUR CHERRY, SOUR MANGO & SOUR STRAWBERRY are all the sour flavors. I have only tried the sour cherry, I didn't like it, but then I don't like sour candies. My boyfriend again ate the whole bag in one setting. He has bought Newmans Sour Apple twists a few times. He says they are the BEST!

Newmans Own doesn't just sell treats, food and beverages for humans they also have great treats and food for cats and dogs. My lucky girls, Jacky and Molly got to once again try some goodies from Newmans Own. They were some happy dogs. Even Duncan our big orange cat ate some of the dog treats (he thinks he is part dog). 
Picture

Adult Dry Dog Food - IDEAL PROTEIN-FAT RATIO to support the nutritional needs of Adult Dogs. Made with Organic Grains and Vegetables
Picture

Advanced Formula Dry Dog Food - HIGH PROTEIN levels benefit both young and old dogs. Made with Organic Grains and Vegetables
Tails wag happily when fed our dry food. With its ideal protein-fat ratio and carefully selected ingredients, it supports their needs in all stages of life.
Newmans also has11 different canned dog foods, in larger or smaller cans. My doggies love it. Our dachshund Molly is very picky, but she was very happy with both Newmans Dry and Wet dog foods. 
Picture

Picture

Jacky looks like a crazy dog in this picture & super skinny body with a big head. She isn't that way, she is my adorable black shih tzu.
The treats were of course my girls favorite in their box. Newmans sent my doggies their own box, they were super excited when they realized it was just for them. 
Reward your best friend with dog treats made with high quality ingredients. Tempt them into good behavior with one of our biscuits, sticks, or jerky.
​The sticks and heart shaped biscuits were their favorites. 
Picture

Molly loves her Newmans Adult Dog Food. As you can see she choose it over her regular dog food. She ate the whole bowl, didn't share even a bite with Jacky.
Picture

There is nothing from Newmans Own that I haven't liked. Even when I don't really like it that is more that I am picky and don't like some flavors (like strawberry). Every store I shop at has something Newmans Own for me to buy. When I have the choice of Newmans Own and another brand I always pick Newmans Own. It's always good and so much better for you, in my opinion. 
Next time your grocery shopping, especially for things to put out during the Holidays and dinner parties keep your eye out for Newmans Own. You won't be disappointed.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ The Best Pencil Sharpener in the World, Classroom Friendly Supplies Review

The BEST gift for your kids teacher!
Every holiday season when your shopping for your kids teacher you don't need to look any further.
Classroom Friendly Supplies
has the perfect gift!
and it now comes in PURPLE.
This is the sharpener that all teachers are talking about! 

A unique and practical teacher gift.
There is nothing worse than being interrupted in your classroom by the annoying sound of a pencil sharpener.
It brings teachers lessons to a screeching halt.
Why not help your child's teacher out

I passed my review Classroom Friendly Sharpener on the my Sister.
She is a grade school teacher in California.
(I was hoping to get a video from her, but she is very busy, once she sends one I will include it in the review)
She was so excited to receive this sharpener, she tells me how it saves her classroom
from annoying sharpener noises.
She can keep on with her lessons while kids sharpen their pencils. ​​
​Other teachers are jealous of her, she now has two of these awesome sharpeners.
​She tells me this sharpener is on all the teachers wish list. ​

This is the most quiet and efficient sharpener you will ever own. 
Just think of how that will help a teacher out when in the middle of a lesson. 

The lady that made these is also a elementary school teacher. 
For every sharpener sold she donates $1.00 towards building a school in a developing country. 
I think this is awesome. I hope she sells lots of sharpeners. 

​The sharpener has a cool old-school retro look, reminds me of the sharpener we had at school when I was  younger. 
Except ours were super loud and annoying. 

Very easy to use, works on any standard sized pencil. You don't have to worry about your child over sharpening and wasting pencils it automatically stops once the perfect point is formed. This prevents over-sharpening.
The tray is clear the teacher or student can see when it's full. Plus it's super easy to slide out and clean. 
Children as young as 5 years of age can use this. 
A clamp is included so it can mount to pretty much any surface or you can keep it off the mount and make it portable.

If you have more then one child you can get a discount if you get one for every child's teacher. 
Check out
Classroom Friendly Supplies for the prices. 
The sharpeners come in 
PURPLE
Red
Black
Green
Blue
&
Pink 

Pick up a Classroom Friendly Pencil Sharpener today
not only will you win a Mom of the Year award from your child's teacher
your child will also have a un-interrupted day from the annoying sounds of pencil sharpeners.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Big Feet Pajamas Plush Adult Footed Pajamas with Hood in Leopard Print plus 20% off code

I love to be comfy, warm and cozy in a nice pair of pj's
Sometimes on the weekend I stay in them most of the day. 
Where I live it's very cold in the fall and winter, especially in the evening
so owning a nice pair of pj's is essential. 
I not only own one but two pairs of Big Feet pj's
They are the softest, warmest most comfy pj's I have EVER owned. 
I LOVE them. 
Not only are they my favorite, but they wash up so nice and last forever. I have had one pair
about 3 years now. They still look and feel like the did the first day I tried them on. 
I received these super cute Plush Adult Footed Pajamas with Hood in Leopard Printmine have the drop seat as seen on the girl picture. 
Let me tell you these are the softest pj's you will ever own. 
I have said that I think 3 times now, but they really are, it's like being bundled up in the best blanket you could ever own. Even my dogs fight over who get's to sit in my lap. If I happen to leave these on the floor or bed after taking them off I turn around to find 2 small dogs and a cat sleeping on them. It's adorable. 

The reason why these plush pj's are so soft is They are made of 100% plush, baby blanket-type material and are so durable, they will last for years. These pajamas zip up the front and have non-slip soles. You can opt in with or without the drop seat. I think it's super cute and it makes for easy bathroom trips when in a hurry. 

I am usually not a fan of anything that is "footed" I don't even wear socks unless i'm freezing or wearing tennis shoes. But these feet are super roomy, you can move your feet & toes around in them.
So if your claustrophobic like me you should be fine in these. 
The arms are nice and long, so when you reach up they pretty much stay put. Not too long though that they bunch up. There's a nice cuff on the arm too, it's the perfect tightness, not too tight, not too loose, just perfect. 
The hood just hangs off the back so you can wear it when you want.
I don't usually wear mine but have a few mornings when it's super cold. 


Perfect for both Men and Women
and only $49.98 plus Big Feet pj's is offering all Simple Side of Life viewers 20 % off. 
These would make a PERFECT holiday gift giving item. 
Since they come in numerous prints and styles you can get a pair for everyone in your family. 

These Very Plush Hoodie Footed Pajamas come in Unisex Sizes: XS  S  M  L  XL, they offer a sizing chart on the site, make sure you use it to get the perfect size. The Colors these pj's come in are Red,  Navy,  Pink &  Leopard and you can go with or without the
​Drop Seat (butt flap)
When my kids were younger (up till teenager years) I would get them pj's for Christmas. 
They always got to open them the night before along with one other gift that we choose for them. 
Usually something to keep them busy till bedtime. 
They always knew they were getting a pair of pj's and usually tried to guess what the print would be. 
I was thinking what a cute idea it would be to get the WHOLE family matching pj's especially cute for a New Years Card picture, or get them early and use for your Holiday Card picture. Oh my how cute would that be!!!!!
This review doesn't have a giveaway......but keep your eye out, the next Big Feet Pjs review I post will. It will be coming up here soon. 

Big Feet Pjs does want to offer
ALL Simple Side of Life Viewers 
20 % off ANYTHING and EVERYTHING

trust me they have so much to choose from your will find something for someone on your shopping list.

You will be happy you did.

Just in case you were wondering..... THIS IS LOUD VERY LOUD!
I think this is a great idea for ANYONE that lives in an apartment or a child in the dorms. 
I gave mine to my Son & his girlfriend. 
They live in an apartment near ASU, not the best apartment in town but also not the worse. 
I worry about them at night or when they are home alone, heck even when they are home together, I just worry. 
They have 2 windows one sliding glass door and a front door. 
I told them to put this on the kitchen window (it's large) and the front door when they are inside. 
That way no one can get them, ever!
I don't worry as much with the sliding glass door, someone would have to climb over their porch fence and more then likely step in dog poo, so I don't think they're going to do that. The kitchen window is in the middle of the apartment a room you can't see from both the bedroom or living room. So to me this was the best window to alarm. 

This set even includes a PERSONAL ALARM. I hope that my sons girlfriend takes this with her whenever she leaves the house. It's perfect way to feel save,
​ when that alarm sounds trust me people are going to pay attention, again it's LOUD!

This is SUPER easy to set up and use.

Holiday Gift Giving Review ~ Beanfields Bean & Rice Chips Review

Did you know that beans are the ONLY food that the USDA lists in two different nutrition categories?  Beans are BOTH a vegetable and a protein source!  That’s a lot of nutrition packed into those small little bean packages! 

Beanfields are the yummiest chips I have ever had and since they are gluten free it makes for a perfect snack for me. They have an excellent taste, texture and crunch. Come in all sorts of flavors and aren't greasy like traditional chips. 

Good taste is only the beginning. All Beanfields chips are Non-GMO Project Verified, vegan-friendly, and certified gluten-free. So just about anyone can eat these. I saved 3 bags for my sister in law who can't eat anything with corn in it. I am hoping she loves them like I do and can start adding Beanfields to her lunches and meals. 

Each chip is packed with 5 grams of Protein, 6 grams of Fiber and only 4.5 grams of Fat. 
They are Vegan, Gluten Free & Corn Free..... Even the Nacho and our Ranch chips do not contain dairy as an ingredient and are perfect for vegan diets.

I now take a reusable snack bag of these chips to work daily. I am addicted. I love the Pico de Gallo, they are sooooooo good!

Sea Salt

Made with just Black Beans, Navy Beans, Long Grain Rice, High Oleic Safflower and Sunflower Oil & Sea Salt.... That's it!

This bag of chips will solve any chip craving, just enough salt but not too much a wonderful crisp chips full of protein and fiber. 

I love this chip crumbled up and added to my salad. You can taste the bean in it but not too beany. Just EXCELLENT. 

By far Sea Salt is my second favorite Beanfields Chip.

Nacho

Just like those other nacho chips out there but 100% better. 
These are excellent alone, in a taco salad or with some homemade pico de gallo or ranch type dip. 

These don't leave your hands orange like other nacho chips. Just your tummy full of yummy nacho goodness. 

This chip like ALL Beanfields doesn't contain dairy as an ingredient and are perfect for vegan diets.

If you love Nacho flavor and who doesn't you will love Beanfields Bean & Rice Nacho Chips. 

Pico De Gallo

My FAVORITE of all the Beanfields chips. 

I LOVE the taste, the crunch and just everything about this yummy bag of chips. If I could I would sit and eat the whole bag in one sitting. =) But I can't so I won't....

My boyfriend and I went hiking last week in Sedona and this is what I took in my pack. He packed candy bars and nuts and I packed Beanfields Pico de Gallo chips. 
I was so happy after making it up a large red rock hill 2 hours later to sit down with my water and Beanfields chips. With all the protein I knew it was the perfect hard earned snack for me. 

The flavor is just excellent, it's like eating a plain chip with a scoop of homemade pico de gallo. YUMMY!

Barbecue

I am not a huge fan of Barbecue chips, never have been.  I just don't like how they taste for some reason. But after opening the bag of Beanfields Barbecue chips that I wasn't really to thrilled to try my whole thought on Barbecue chips went away. 
These were excellent. Not too over powering barbecue taste, just a perfect amount of barbecue. 
They still aren't my favorite of the Beanfields chips but they aren't bad. 

I will save them for my boyfriend. He likes them, so this can be his own bag. 

If you are a fan of barbecue this will be for you!

 Unsalted

Black Beans, Navy Beans, Long Grain Rice, High Oleic Safflower and Sunflower Oil....

THAT'S IT! Nothing else is added to this bag of chips. 

How can you not go wrong. 

Plus 4 grams of protein and fiber

EXCELLENT Chip. 

I love these with salsa or even crushed on my salad. 
They are just a simple plain chip, excellent alone or with a dip. 
Plain but nothing plain about them. 

Ranch

The newest of Beanfields Bean and Rice Chips. 

Excellent ranch taste, not too over powering but just PERFECT. Can be enjoyed alone or with a dip. 
I prefer these alone, just as they are, right out of the
bag. 

Yummy ranch flavor and again  doesn't contain dairy as an ingredient and are perfect for vegan diets. Usually a ranch chip would have dairy in it, not Beanfields chips. 

If you like a yummy ranch flavored chip this is the perfect one. Excellent along side a sandwich. 

Salt & Pepper

These are going hiking with me this weekend. 
I hadn't tried them until last night. 
A small bowl became my after dinner snack. I have one of those almost every night to thank myself for going on the treadmill and eating good meals all throughout the day. 

EXCELLENT!

Just the perfect hint of Sea Salt and Black Pepper. 
YUMMY!

Like ALL Beanfields chips these were so good. 

Excellent chips to put out of your next holiday party. 
Since everyone has some sort of allergy and everyone is trying to eat healthier
why not make it easier on everyone by putting bowls of Beanfields Bean & Rice Chips out. 
Your guests will love the taste, texture and flavors of these chips. 
Make sure you leave a little place card in front of each bowl with the flavor and
BEANFIELDS ~ Gluten Free ~ Vegan ~ Corn Free~ plus 4 g of protein & fiber
