Trident Layers Review

When you think of gum what is the first name that comes to mind? I'm guessing one of your top two would be Trident am I right? And why shouldn't it be? Trident has been a leader in this industry for years and with all the yummy flavors available there is not one person that can tell me they have never, in their life, had a piece of Trident gum in their mouths.

Well here is another reason to run out and get your chew on. " Introducing new Trident Layers. It's much more than a gum, it's a gumwich! Try citrus sandwiched between two layers of strawberry or find out how apple stacked on pineapple on apple tastes like". Two great new yummy flavors packed into one tiny piece of gum.

While both are delicious, if I had to pick my favorite I guess I would say the Strawberry Citrus is it. As with the other Trident varieties the flavor lasts a long time, but this new gum is explosive with the two different flavors and as always is sugar free!

Tropical Traditions Moisturizing Lotion Review

So if you are one of my regular followers you have already seen my past review for Tropical Traditions (if not click here). At that time I was reviewing their Virgin Coconut Oil, this time they are letting me try the Moisturizing Lotion, yay me!! So in my last review I told you all about the company and the benefits I saw from using their coconut oil, which I still use and love! I really believe this has to be one of the best companies out there. Not only are their employees sweet and lovely to work with, shipping is extremely fast and the products are simply amazing.

Deciding on which scent to try was tough, they all sounded wonderful. Unscented, Baby Silk, Lavender, Citrus, Peppermint and Arnica...how could I choose? Finally I did, decided on the Baby Silk although Peppermint was a very close second.


Ingredients: purified water, organic virgin coconut oil, organic jojoba, emulsifying wax (plant based, no soy), grapefruit seed extract, virgin palm oil, and organic essential oils of rosewood, lavender, ylang ylang, roman chamomile, geranium, and rose.


Look at that ingredient list. Pure. No fillers, no additives that I can not pronounce, but honest to goodness products. What does it feel like? Silky heaven. I used this lotion for a week straight and my skin was amazingly soft and had a beautiful glow. I then became ill and for a week was not able to keep up with anything extra to include myself. At the end of the week not using the Baby Silk Moisturizing Lotion I noticed my skin was so dry, not smooth, and I just looked older I thought I should. As soon as I got my act together I went back on using my lotion and I am happy to report I am smooth and supple again. Once again I am imaged by the quality of the products from Tropical Traditions.

The smell? Delightful. My hubby who has only used Lubriderm Non Scented for years is very sensitive to lotion scent hence why he only the for mentioned. Even in the past when he has attempted another "non scented" brand he never likes them, says he can still smell "something". So one day after I lathered up with my Baby Silk Lotion I had him smell me...lol He really liked it for a "girl lotion". I then had him feel my skin, he liked the smooth, silky feeling. So I had him just try it for me and give me his honest opinion. He is now a Baby Silk user. He enjoys the very light smell, it's "natural" he says and the softness it gives his rough hands is an added bonus. Plus I caught him lathering up his feet one evening, what does that tell ya?

So am I still a Tropical Traditions fan? Hell yah! The products are amazing and you can not honestly get more natural I believe than what they have to offer. I have tried many "natural" products from so many different companies in my quest to find the best for me and my family. I was always disappointed by an odd smell, strange texture, or hidden "natural additives". We should not have to sacrifice what we want for the sake of trying to be organic or natural and now we do not have to.

MTM - Kebabs

Okay so I am a day late on posting. I was just enjoying my holiday yesterday relaxing watching movies with my hubby and girls all day. However we still participated in Muffin Tin Monday and the girls loved it. C even asked for seconds...I think she just liked the toothpicks.

So we kept snack time simple...chunky chopped pears, oranges and Fuji apples on colored toothpicks with vanilla pudding and little bee's graham crackers. It was "super yummy" C said.

Join me and 30 other blogging mommas who love Muffin Tin Monday. Your kids will love it! Stop by Her Cup Overflowth, the home of MTM and join us next Monday!

Halloween Spiders

Last week the girls and I decided for our craft project it would be fun to make paper plate spiders for Halloween decorations in our home. It's so super easy and the girls loved it.

All you need is paper plates, glue stick, string, markers/crayons and construction paper.

Now if I had found our black paint, I would have had the girls paint the paper plates, but it must still be in an unopened box from our move, so I gave them crayons to decorate the tops of their spiders however they like.

Then accordion fold 8 strips of black paper (for each spider) for the legs and glue stick them to the underside of the paper plate. Cut out a couple pop up eyes, glue to top and tie string through two holes poked into the top for the hanger.

Done, how easy is that and the kiddos will love it!

Eden Fantasys Review

*Sexual Content Disclaimer*

This review is for mature readers 18 yrs and older. If you are easy offended by the topic of sex please skip this post.

Now for all of those of you that have decided to stick around for the review...yay! I know the topic of sex is not a everyday conversation we have in "normal" society. Thank goodness I am not normal by some standards. I am actually very open on the topic and feel that especially we as beautiful, sexy woman should embrace our sexuality the way we want to. I have been thinking long and hard (*chuckle* no pun intended) about how to address this review. Should I be general and coy or straight up honest. I prefer the honest approach so again if you are a little squeeze in the tummy talking about sex or "marital aids" you can stop reading here.

No? Your still with me? Your my kind of people!

I personally think sex is beautiful and I think being sexual, open and honest about it especially with your partner is the biggest turn on ever. Why do we as a society blush when we even think about sex? It's nothing new. It has been happening for centuries and yet we have closed off ourselves to the ultimate pleasure of it. My biggest question is why are we afraid to ask our partners for exactly what we want. I know some of you out there are as open as I am (you freaky girls) about what we want in bed or what we like, but so many are scared. Scared of what their partner may think of them if they bring up a fantasy or something different they may want to try. Why? You trust your husband, partner, lover with your secrets, your heart or even your life right? Why not trust them with your sexual cravings and desires?

"Sex shops" to me have gotten a bad wrap over the years. They are not necessarily a place for only perverts and deviants. Yes there are some less than savory characters I have seen in a few shops I have visited with my hubby, but to me I could not help but laugh because it almost made the persona true. This might be why woman do not feel comfortable about going to a brick and mortar type store. What if someone see's you walking in? What will the people inside think of you?

This brings me to a great place I had the pleasure (pun intended) to review, Eden Fantasys. A place you can visit discreetly and in the privacy of your own home. Eden Fantasys is one of the best online companies I have visited for massage oils, lubricants, adult toys and lingerie. This site is very user friendly and the selection of products available is huge. Anything your little heart desires can be found here. Wanna put some spark back into your marriage? Why not try a fun board game to play or some role playing accessories. Take a peak at their Sex Toys For Couples page. From sexy boards games, books, videos and more it all can be found there.

Need a new or maybe your first vibrator? Checkout the selection from the Vibrator Shop. From the small "pocket" types, to the cute and funny and even some that baffle me that I'm pretty sure I would need a 5 page instruction book to operate.



What if I place my order, how will it arrive to me? Will it be obvious it came from this site? The answer is NO. When I received my package to review, not only did I receive it faster than I expected, but it was so inconspicuous I did not even know what it was until I opened it.

Some other great points I would like to mention on about Eden Fantasys is they have a line of "Green Sex Toys". That's right, this company is also eco conscience. From rechargeable vibes, biodegradable toys, non toxic toys for you latex allergic folks and green balms and oils. They even have eco-conscious manufacturing.

SEXIS is their online magazine for "all things sexual". Whether it be on sex, health, society and more this is a great online tool for people with questions to find answers. Want more? They also have a Community Forum where you can interact with people, see what other people points of view may be or just to chit chat. Stop by their Blog and check out interviews with industry professional, see products reviews and more.

"EdenFantasys invites you to learn from others, share your experiences and re-discover sex. We offer online shopping you can trust, a welcoming community and a wealth of inspiring resources. Eden Fantasys is an internet sex toy and adult novelty retailer. We uphold a standard of quality in the toys we offer to our customers, but we are even more focused on customer service and consumer education. The site has developed an online community of product reviewers, editorial writers, fantasy writers, and sexuality experts, in addition to other educated and opinionated people."
