<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's been quite some time since I last blogged or hosted a review or giveaway. So when I returned home to find a 'Sorry We Missed You' note from UPS on my door I was baffled. Who was sending me a package and one that required a signature, in person, to boot!? I am in and out all day, carting kids to school and activities so scheduling a delivery with a 2 - 4 hour window isn't the easiest to do. But not knowing who it was from was eating away at me. I couldn't stand it. I called UPS and asked them if they could at least tell me who the sender was. I was told the only thing they had in their system was "Hasty Mail" out of Minneapolis At first I thought they said "Tasty" and thought I was getting some kind of treat but after clarification I did what any normal person would do this day and age. I grabbed an iPad and Googled! Turns out "Hasty Mail" is a shipping service, which was of no help to me.Once again, I was forced to wait, er, be patient.</div>
<br />
The following day I put a note on my front door that said "UPS, we are home. KNOCK HARD!" Heaven knows I didn't want to miss the delivery again! I tracked the package multiple times, despite the fact that the status never changed from "Out for Delivery". Then I heard a big truck stop outside my house. My daughter, who was also anxiously awaiting the delivery, went running to look out the window. "MOMMY, the delivery guy is here!!" she yelled. The delivery guy was here alright, the OIL delivery guy. Disappointed I went and had a seat and tracked the package, yes again, knowing full well the status had not changed.<br />
<br />
Finally, there was a UPS truck sighting one street over. I told my daughter that the delivery man better hurry up and drop off his other packages before we had to leave to pick up her brother. What a way to teach patience to her, right? Then about 10 minutes later the small brown truck stopped next to my house and the man dressed head to toe in brown make the short trek up the walkway to my front door, where I was clearly waiting with baited breath. As I was signing for the package you know I was not paying attention to the little electronic machine, I was trying to look at the package to see who it was from! And there it was, the return label with the company logo.<br />
<br />
CARMEX!!!<br />
<br />
At last, the anticipation of finding out who the mystery package was from was over. Now to uncover the next mystery. What was in the package that I waited so anxiously for? There were two full size bottles, one of hydrating lotion and one of healing cream, plus a bright yellow hoodie for the Carmex Blog Squad members.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I received the products both my daughter and I were suffering from dry skin due to dry heat. My daughters being worse than mine. We both couldn't wait to see if *this* would be the cream to put an end to the dry, cracked skin.</div>
<br />
The first thing I did was open each bottle to give them the smell test. If they had heavy perfume smells that would be it for us. Thankfully we both were pleased with the light, fresh scent. It wouldn't be my first choice in scents but it wasn't offensive.<br />
<br />
We decided to try the healing cream first. Mostly because my daughter is a gymnast and her hands really take a beating. Not to mention how dry they were. They felt like sandpaper - all exaggeration to the side. She doesn't have the typical soft hands of a 5 yr old. The Carmex healing cream felt so good as we rubbed it in to our hands, and elbows for me. Once absorbed we were not left with a greasy residue, just soft skin.We used the healing cream twice a day for several days and had amazing improvement. I started applying it to my feet at night, too, and was quite pleased with the results! I tried to convince my husband to use it but as usual he refused.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next we gave the Carmex hydrating lotion a shot. We were equally happy with it. The difference, to me, was that the lotion wasn't as thick and, well, creamy as the cream. I could foresee us using the hydrating lotion on more of a regular basis and the healing cream when we really need a deeper moisturizing.</div>
<br />
As I close, there is one thing that I noticed that I wanted to point out. After each use of the lotion and cream I couldn't believe the difference in the appearance of my skin, but especially my daughters. The best way I can describe it is like a plant that is dehydrated. Imagine it limp and slumped down but after one good drink of water it perks up and looks healthy again. That was the same results I saw with our skin after using the Carmex Healing Cream and Carmex Hydrating Lotion.<br />
<br />
Now is your chance to WIN a full size bottle of Carmex Healing Cream and Carmex Hydrating Lotion to try for yourself!<br />

This past Friday <a href="http://www.facebook.com/realsteelmovie">Real Steel</a> opened in theaters everywhere. Did anyone go see it? What did you think? I had the pleasure of seeing an advanced screening a few week ago and was blown away. I went into the movie thinking it would be a nice action movie for my hubby and I would get to enjoy the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/realsteelmovie">Hugh Jackman</a> eye candy. My thoughts were that the movie would be something like Transformers or packed with guns, explosions, blood and guts. So not my kind of thing. I prefer the romantic comedies.<br />
<a name='more'></a> That said, I am *so* glad I went because <a href="http://www.facebook.com/realsteelmovie">Real Steel</a> was more than I imagined. (And no, it wasn't guns, explosions and blood and guts!) It's so much more than just an action movie. There's drama, comedy, action, suspense and love. The story is actually quite moving and powerful.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/realsteelmovie">Charlie Kenton</a> (Hugh Jackman) was at one time a big shot boxer but when robot boxing came about he found himself out of the boxing ring and completely down on his luck. Charlie was a high roller and made some gambling bets on robot boxing tournaments that left him out of money and with nowhere to turn. Just when he's hit rock bottom he's confronted with his past and has to quickly learn how to deal with a very witty, and somewhat cocky, 12yr old, Max (<a href="http://www.facebook.com/realsteelmovie">Dakota Goyo</a>).<br />
<br />
This movie is rated PG-13. I would love to take my 6yr old son to see the movie, as I know he would LOVE it. But because some of the language is inappropriate for his age, he's going to have to wait. Other than the language, I think the movie is great for all ages.<br />
<br />
If you have the opportunity to see this movie in the theaters, I highly recommend it. I think seeing it on the big screen will help you grasp just how big these robots are! They're HUGE at 8 - 9 feet tall!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<br />
<strong>Your Name:</strong> Laura Andry<br />
<br />
<strong>Where do you blog?</strong> <a href="http://mommart.blogspot.com/">Mom Mart</a><br />
<br />
<strong>How did you decide on what to name your blog?</strong> I am a stay at home mother with two little boys. My husband always jokes around about how certain "jobs" around the house are mine and fall under my job description. I told him I felt like one of those superstores that is open 24 hours a day 7 days a week, and that he could just refer to me as <a href="http://mommart.blogspot.com/">MomMart</a> from now on.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<strong>Tell us a little bit about you: </strong>I am a stay at home mother with a 5-month-old baby boy and a 2 1/2 -year-old little boy. My boys are 100% boy 100% of the time and I love it! I have been happily married to my best friend going on five years now and couldn't feel more blessed. I am a Christian and thank the Lord everyday for all the blessings in my life. I am a glass half full type of girl who looks for the humor in every situation. I am an organizational neat freak who loves being crafty and creative. I have been blogging since April 2011 after deciding that I wanted to try my hand at writing. So far, it has been a lot of fun.<br />
<br />
<strong>Tell us five of your favorite things and five of your least favorite things:</strong><br />
<br />
<em>5 Favorite Things:</em><br />
<br />
<strong>My family-</strong> I love my entire family, they are my best friends. I have a great relationship with my in-laws and truly love spending time with each and every member of my family.<br />
<br />
<strong>Baby Gear -</strong> I am completely addicted!<br />
<br />
<strong>Vacations where I don't have to drive - </strong>if I have to drive it is not a vacation.<br />
<br />
<strong>The smell of apples -</strong> yummy!<br />
<br />
<strong>Pedicures -</strong> nothing makes me feel more pampered than pretty toes.<br />
<br />
<em>5 Least Favorite:</em><br />
<br />
<strong>Rude People -</strong> I have no idea where manners have vanished to, but they need to make a come back!<br />
<br />
<strong>Heels -</strong> I strongly dislike wearing heels. They hurt my feet :(<br />
<br />
<strong>Long lines -</strong> really, no need to explain.<br />
<br />
<strong>Getting lost -</strong> I feel incredibly vulnerable when I am lost.<br />
<br />
<strong>Asking for help -</strong> I am stubborn and like to think that I can do anything and everything on my own and I rarely ask for help, even when I need it. It is a big fault of mine.<br />
<br />
<strong>When and why did you start blogging?</strong> I started seriously blogging in April 2011 after having suffered from mastitis. I had no idea what was wrong with me and I was frightened. I had a hard time finding information about this subject and decided that I would share my experiences with others and put my information out there. I wanted to write and this was what really pushed me to start doing it.<br />
<br />
<strong>What do you blog about?</strong> I guess it is more accurate to ask me what I don't blog about. I share my experiences and my perspectives as a stay at home mom. I talk about breastfeeding, potty training, family friendly activities, crafts for kids, blog hops, product reviews, giveaways, and have recently started adding quick and easy recipes. I essentially share my life.<br />
<br />
<strong>What is your favorite blog post ever?</strong> <a href="http://mommart.blogspot.com/2011/08/potty-training-william-continued.html">Potty Training William Continued</a> I think my whole potty training experience is too funny. I laugh every time I think about it.<br />
<br />
<strong>What is your favorite item you ever reviewed?</strong> My <a href="http://mommart.blogspot.com/2011/09/product-review-hoover-presto-2-in-1.html">Hoover Vacuum Cleaner</a>!!<br />
<br />
<strong>What are your favorite blogs to read?</strong><br />

Why? Because it's very low in points (2 points plus), yet very satisfying with a whopping 10g of fiber! The question was, how good can cereal so low in calories taste? Pretty good, that's how good!

What I liked: </b>I liked the flavor, nice and sweet. I liked the nutritional values. I liked that it makes for a great filler snack.

<br />
<b>What I didn't like:</b> I did not like how fast it got soggy in milk. I did not like that it left a bit of an after taste in my mouth.<br />
<br />
<b>Would I recommend Fiber One 80 Calories?</b> Yes.<br />

<br />
<b>Your Name:</b> Ashley T<br />
<br />
<b>Where do you blog?</b> <a href="http://andthelittleonestoo.com/"> and the little ones too</a><br />
<br />
<b>How did you decide on what to name your blog?</b> I wanted something cute but also something that would also cover future kids.<br />
<br />
<b>Tell us a little bit about you....:</b> I am a working mother of 2 boys also helping support my husband through school.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<b>When and why did you start blogging?</b> I started blogging a couple days before my son’s first birthday to help my family keep up with how he was doing. In the past year or so, I began doing more writing and dedicating myself to my blog. I dove into reviewing and loved it right away. I’ve been happy with it ever since.<br />
<br />
<b>What does your family think of your blog? Do they read it? </b>My husband is the only one who reads it regularly. It doesn’t bother me that they don’t read it… much. I know that if I wrote something that I wanted them to read and told them about it, they would check it out.<br />
<br />
<b>When do you find the time to blog?</b> I do most of my writing either right before bed after the boys go to sleep or during work. Sometimes its slow where I work and I could write 3 posts in a day and schedule them to keep up with days where there just aren’t any extra hours.<br />
<br />
<b>What is your favorite item you ever reviewed?</b> I have 2 favorite items I’ve reviewed. The first is a post I just published last week called <a href="http://andthelittleonestoo.com/2011/09/luminess-air-airbrush-makeup-review/">Luminess Air</a> and the other favorite is the <a href="http://andthelittleonestoo.com/2011/07/drinking-soda-and-being-green-sodastream-review/">Soda Stream</a> review. There were the 2 I had the most fun with.<br />
<br />
<b>What brand or product would you really like to work with/review?</b> I don’t have a specific company I’d LOVE to work with but I’d love to review a car seat. You can only do so much in the stores and I loved Hayden’s convertible seat but I am always on a lookout for a new one.<br />
<br />
<b>What advice would you give a new blogger?</b> Reach out to other bloggers and interact with them. I have found that I wouldn’t know as much as I do without the help of other bloggers around.<br />
<br />
<b>What widget or feature could you not live without?</b> Commentluv. It makes it so much easier for me to visit other blogs and check out what they write about. Maybe even start following them.<br />
<br />
<b>Where can we find you?</b><br />

My family and I are so excited about the release of Spooky Buddies on Blu-ray & DVD tomorrow. We have been waiting for this since we first saw the ad in the Santa Buddies DVD box. You don't have to be a dog lover to find the buddy movies absolutely adorable. We all have memories of holiday movies and shows we liked to watch every year. My kids are growing up knowing the buddy movies as holiday tradition. We cannot wait to see Spooky Buddies and add it to our Halloween traditions!<br />

DVD SET FOR RELEASE <b>SEPTEMBER 27</b><br />
<br />
<b>BURBANK, CA, July 28, 2011 </b>– A new soundtrack and DVD inspired by Disney Junior's #1 series Jake and the Never Land Pirates, are planned to set sail this September with Walt Disney Records' album release of eighteen hook-filled songs from the series on September 20 and The Walt Disney Studios "Jake and the Never Land Pirates: Yo Ho, Mateys Away!" DVD release featuring seven episodes from the series on September 27. <br />
<br />
Jake and the Never Land Pirates is cable's #1 series among Boys 2-5 and is on track to be Disney Channel's #1 preschool series ever. It is the most co-viewed series among all Disney Junior and Nickelodeon series, with 47% of Moms watching with their preschooler. A music-filled interactive treasure hunt, the series introduces a crew of kid pirates – leader Jake and pals Izzy and Cubby – and follows their Never Land adventures as they work to outwit two infamous characters, the one and only Captain Hook and Smee, from Disney's classic "Peter Pan." Every episode features the animated Sharky and Bones characters as they pop up throughout to perform original pirate ditties, and each episode concludes with a live action music video featuring The Never Land Pirate Band.<br />
<br />
<b>About the Album Release:</b><br />
Written and performed by Loren Hoskins and Kevin Hendrickson, a.k.a. Sharky and Bones of The Never Land Pirate Band, the album features 18 swashbuckling tracks sure to thrill any young pirate. Also included are downloadable activities and games to plan the perfect pirate party, a Sing-Along version of the show’s theme song and a bonus track from a future episode. The deluxe edition includes a pirate bandana. The album arrives at stores and online retailers September 20. <br />
<br />
The album features a variety of songs that kids and parents can enjoy together. Songs include the kooky, comical "Hot Lava," “Aw Coconuts,” "Pirate Password,” and the arrrghhh-rated “Talk Like a Pirate.” Some songs refer to popular characters in the show, such as “What’s Cookin’ Smee,” "Captain Hook (Is A Cranky Crook)," “Tick Tock Croc” and “Bucky’s Shanty.” Others capture the island spirit of Never Land, such as “Castaway on Pirate Island," "Shipwreck Shuffle" and "Never Sky," as well as the "Jake and the Never Land Pirates" theme song. All songs can be heard in episodes of the show.<br />
<br />
Portland, Oregon-based Hoskins and Hendrickson have been creating pirate rock music for kids of all ages for more than a decade. The duo produced four previous children's albums and even led their own pirate band. The pirate rockers also provide the musical score for “Jake and the Never Land Pirates.”<br />
<br />
The Jake and the Never Land Pirates soundtrack will be available wherever music is sold on September 20.

How many times have you had to pass up on a fabulous top or dress because it was too <a href="http://cleava.com/">low cut</a> for you? Everything else about the garment is perfect, except for the neck line. You spend who knows how long in the dressing room trying on top after top (or dress after dress) and nothing compares to that <i>one</i>. You try it on again, hoping to find a way to make the neck line work for you. Your first thought is to pin it, but that makes the fabric lay funny. So your next thought is to get a <a href="http://cleava.com/">cami</a> to wear under it. But that won't work because it will make the top look too bulky or not even fit right. By now you've got sweat beads on your forehead, because Lord knows the stores keep their dressing rooms at 100 degrees at all times. Your frustrated. You settle on a different top and leave disappointed.<br />

<br />
<br />
<b>Your Name:</b> Amy AKA Rockin' Momma<br />
<br />
<b>Where do you blog?</b> <a href="http://www.rockindeals4you.com/">Rockin' Deals 4 You</a><br />
<br />
How did you decide on what to name your blog? My son loves to play Guitar…well any musical instrument and always seems to be rocking out some kinda of (So-called) music. And since I’m on this journey because of him, I only thought it right to name by blog Rockin’ Deals.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<b>Tell us a little bit about you:</b><br />
<br />
My husband, Dave and I have been married for 16 years. A little over 4 years ago we were blessed with the birth of our adopted son, Jace. Jace is a very active 4 year old. I never thought I'd be running my 4 year old around to sports and classes, but he keeps me busy. I worked for 13 years at a local daycare before Jace came along. I've been a stay at home mom for most 4 years. I now work at a local preschool as the preschool assistant 2 days a week. I love being able to get out of the house but I still get to be a stay at home mom!<br />
<br />
<b>When and why did you start blogging?</b> <br />
<br />
My frugal journey started about 3 years ago, after the birth of our adopted son, Jace. Mostly to help off set the cost of diapers, wipes and formula. I had been finding lots of great deals and wanted a place for my family and friends to read about them, too. So, Rockin’ Deals was established on March 16, 2010. I'd been blogging for about 4 years before that on our personal family blog. <br />
<br />
<b>What do you blog about?</b> I mostly blog about freebies, samples, coupons and HOT deals. But I also do reviews and giveaways.<br />
<br />
<b>What does your family think of your blog?</b> My husband was the one who helped me get started. He designed my blog layout. I'm so thankful that I have a husband who is able to do some much on a website!<br />
<br />
<b>When do you find the time to blog?</b> I try to do as much as I can while my son is in preschool and in the evenings after he goes to bed. But as a frugal blogger I hate to miss a good deal, so I'm off and on all day looking for the best deal to post!<br />
<br />
<b>What is your favorite item you ever reviewed?</b> <a href="http://www.rockindeals4you.com/?p=6439">Divvies Bakery</a> and <a href="http://www.rockindeals4you.com/?p=15365">Imagination Movers Concert</a><br />
<br />
<b>What advice would you give a new blogger?</b> Make blogging friends. It's great to be part of a group of people who think like you do and have the same kind of goals. Help out other bloggers and they will help you in return. If it wasn't for other great bloggers my blog would not be where it is today!<br />

<br />
<b>Your Name:</b> Johanna <br />
<br />
<b>Where do you blog?</b> <a href="http://www.mamachocolateblog.com/">Mama Chocolate</a><br />
<br />
<b>How did you decide on what to name your blog? </b>I wanted something short and sweet, but unique. As a chocolate enthusiast, Mama Chocolate seemed fitting for me. :-)<br />
<br />
<b>Tell us a little bit about you....</b><br />
<br />
I've been a busy stay-at-home-mama and wife for about four years now, and God has already blessed me and my husband, John, with two beautiful daughters, Katie (2) and Victoria, (10 months.)<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
We are Christians and plan on homeschooling our little ones. John and I are both homeschool graduates (and successful, well-balanced adults,) and we're excited to be passing on that vision on to our children!<br />
<br />
We enjoy living out in the sticks and raise kids, sheep, dogs, cats and weeds, (the legal kind).<br />
<br />
Like most, our life is hard work, but it's good, and I love it. I'm living my dream: raising beautiful children with a godly, loving husband, out in the country.<br />
<br />
<b>When and why did you start blogging? </b>I had a little private blog for some time to keep family and friends updated before I started <a href="http://www.mamachocolateblog.com/">Mama Chocolate</a> in July 2010. I had officially become a Giveaway Addict and wanted to share the love by hosting giveaways myself, and I knew that if I posted about recipes and such, it would help me actually try new things.<br />
<br />
I expanded on that and hope to bring truly useful information to moms more and more in the future.<br />
<br />
<b>What do you blog about? </b>I write about the ins and outs of mothering and homemaking, share recipes, family-related reviews and giveaways, and occasionally brag about my precious girls.<br />
<br />
<b>What does your family think of your blog? Do they read it? </b>I finally added my husband to my email subscribers last week so that he would actually read it. ;-) <br />
<br />
My mom and sisters read it (and tell me they love it, of course, LOL,) and are actually quite accomplished bloggers themselves!<br />
<br />
<b>When do you find the time to blog?</b> Early in the morning or late at night are my most productive times. I work on blogging sometimes during the girls naps and now and then during the day.<br />
<br />
<b>What is your favorite blog post ever?</b> "<a href="http://www.mamachocolateblog.com/why-we-canceled-our-netflix-subscription.html">Why We Canceled Our Netflix Subscription</a>"<br />
<br />
<b>What is your favorite item you ever reviewed?</b> <a href="http://www.mamachocolateblog.com/teething-tots-amber-necklace-review.html">Teething Tots Amber Necklaces</a><br />
<br />
<b>What brand or product would you really like to work with/review?</b> I would love to giveaway an Ergo baby carrier. I love mine and think every mom should have one!<br />
<br />
<b>What advice would you give a new blogger?</b> Do not try to do it alone! Do whatever you can to network with other bloggers. There are a lot of nice bloggy people out there who are happy to help you out and there is so much to learn. You can become overwhelmed and discouraged if you're trying to do it alone. <br />
<br />
<b>What are your favorite blogs to read?</b><br />

Hi, my name is Melissa AKA Froggy, and I am seriously addicted to shopping at <a href="http://www.zulily.com/invite/mnewstat803">Zulily</a>. Who can blame me? Have you seen the awesome brands they carry? Can't beat the prices, either.

Veggie Tales Princess and the Pop Star is adorable. I knew it would be an instant hit with my 4yr old daughter, who is into all things princess and who loves music! We've seen many of the Veggie Tales shows and have always enjoy them. We can count on Veggie Tales to send good messages to our kids. There is never any concern about inappropriate language (that many kids shows freely use these days). The songs are catchy and are fun to sing along with.<br />

About VeggieTales Princess and the Pop Star: A Story of Trading Places:</b></u><br />
<span style="color: #666666;"><i>Princess Poppyseed’s life on her family’s farm is far from the glamorous but lonely world of her favorite pop singer Vanna Banana. On a chance meeting at a playground, Vanna and Princess cross paths and realize that they look almost exactly alike—which leads to the crazy secret plan where they decide to switch lives! As each girl realizes that the life they longed for doesn’t fulfill all of their dreams, they learn that the life God gave them is the one for which they were uniquely and lovingly designed.<br />

</div><div align="center" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">It's that time of year again, Back-to-School. The stores have been crowded as we all have our supply lists in hand, filling our carts with glue sticks, pencils, folders, notepads etc. Next stop is to shop for snacks to fill the lunch boxes.</div><a name='more'></a><br />
<div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">In today's society there is a huge concern about childhood obesity. More and more parents are finding healthy alternatives to the typical cookies, chips and gummy fruit snacks. Many kids are happy with cut up fruit but how many are really content with cut up veggies? So the bottom line is that we want our kids to eat healthier but it's not always an easy thing to accomplish.</div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">The folks at Peter Rabbit Organics have done their very best to help! They are dedicated to offering only healthy, organic snacks. Peter Rabbit Organics has our kids in mind even when it comes to the packaging. The fruit and veggie purees come in kid-friendly, BPA-FREE, resealable pouches with no-choke caps. </div><div align="center"><br />
</div><div align="center">Peter Rabbit Organics offers 6 amazing fruit and veggie puree combinations:</div><ul><li align="center">Strawberry and Banana</li>
<li align="center">Apple and Grape</li>
<li align="center">Mango, Banana and Orange</li>
<li align="center">Sweet Potato, Corn and Apple</li>
<li align="center">Carrot, Squash and Apple</li>
<li align="center">Pea, Spinach and Apple<br />
<br />
My family and I got to sample each of the available flavors. We sat and passed each pouch around like it was a peace pipe as we tasted each one. I was afraid that the kids would shy away from the pouches that contained veggies in the picture. And I was right. So I gently enforced the "Just give it a little taste. You don't have to like it but you don't know until you try." household policy. I would say 90% of the time the kids end up liking what they try. This was no exception. Surprisingly the kids like the Pea, Spinach and Apple flavor. I wouldn't say it was a favorite but they certainly didn't turn their noses up to it!<br />
<br />
Peter Rabbit Organics is available at a variety of locations nationwide including Starbucks, Whole Foods Markets, Publix and Albertsons, and natural food stores, in all Buy Buy Baby stores, and online at <a href="http://amazon.com/">Amazon.com</a>, <a href="http://diapers.com/">Diapers.com</a>, <a href="http://babiesrus.com/">BabiesRUs.com</a> and <a href="http://spud.com/">Spud.com</a>.<br />

What's a wonderful way to pamper ma? Give her some swanky <a href="http://www.pureblissessentials.com/main.sc">bath and beauty products</a>! What woman doesn't love fresh, clean smelling, <a href="http://www.pureblissessentials.com/main.sc">handmade soap</a>? Or luscious, thick and creamy lip balm? There's something about handmade products that is just more appealing than products manufactured in a factory, don't you agree?<br />

You're probably thinking to yourself, really? "swanky" bath products? That's right. The bar of soap that I received, which smelled lovely, by the way, had a artistic, modern face with a tube of lipstick in it. Don't be fooled, as my family and I were! We seriously had to take a second look to see if Ms. Antares actually put a tube of lipstick in the bar of soap! We were all amazed at how real it looked but was 100% soap! Very impressive!<br />

I am a coffee drinker. I drink it day and night. I get twitchy, although my husband might use another term that rhymes with twitchy, when I don't get my coffee. However, I do like tea. I love Jasmine Green Tea. I love Chai Tea. English Breakfast Tea. My most favorite tea is Earl Grey Tea. Mmm, haven't had that in a while!<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
I believe teas offer different comforts than coffee. You can drink a soothing chamomile tea before bed to help you drift off to lala land. Or when you have a sore throat you can drink herbal Throat Coat that actually really does help - speaking from experience! Peppermint tea for an upset tummy. It's amazing how many holistic healing properties herbal teas provide.<br />
<br />
Presented with the opportunity to sample <a href="http://www.teamotionstea.com/">Teamotions</a> tea I immediately checked out what they have to offer. They have <a href="http://www.teamotionstea.com/our-teas/">6 herbal blends</a>, each offering a unique flavor. I read through each one and ultimately decided I wanted to try <a href="http://www.teamotionstea.com/shop/seek-peace/">Roobios Coconut Chai</a>. What stood out to me is that it contains <a href="http://www.teamotionstea.com/shop/seek-peace/">neem leaf</a>, which is said to calm anxiety. Anxiety has been something I have trouble controlling and with some recent medical concerns it has certainly been at peek levels. Let me share with you what <a href="http://www.teamotionstea.com/">Teamotions</a> has to say about <a href="http://www.teamotionstea.com/shop/seek-peace/">Roobios Coconut Chai</a>:<br />
