Soft and wonderful

I have always liked using cocoa butter products from Tone body bar to shea butter lotion. Unrefined shea butter is like other shea butter products but much healthier if you ask me. I love how it melts in your hands and absorbs into your skin. If you are rushed for time you can just place a bit in a small container in some warm water to help it break down more quickly.

This is my second time actually owning pure organic shea butter. The first time I was able to have some of my very own it came in a resealable bag. I loved using it but like the way this one is packaged much better. I love that it is in a jar which is easier to get the product out of instead of having to put my hand all the way into a bag to reach the very last bit of shea butter and getting it all over my arms as well.

You can find this Raw Shea Butter on Amazon.

What Cornucopia Brands has to say about their product.

Pure Organic Raw Unrefined Organic Shea Butter, BPA Free Bottle

Shea butter is one of natures best gifts to the world of organic cosmetics. It can be used as an organic base or ingredient, and in its natural form applied directly to skin and hair. Often times unrefined pure shea butter is the primary ingredient even in national brand moisturizing products.

Accounts from as early as Cleopatra's Egypt speak of caravans bearing clay jars of valuable shea butter for cosmetic use. The funeral beds of early kings were carved in the wood of shea trees. Shea butter has been a staple in cosmetic use for thousands of years.

We are proud to offer you our version of the same pure unrefined organic shea butter that was used by the kings.

Packed in 14oz (although weighing just 1oz shy of 1lb) BPA free bottles, our shea butter bulk is the perfect ingredient or all natural moisturizer.

Just a few uses:

-As a leave in shea butter conditioner.

-As a shea butter cream. Although the shea is firm, when worked in your palm, it can become creamy enough to apply directly to you skin.

-As a raw ingredient in your homemade lotions, soaps, creams, and more.

-Alternative to lotion. Our shea butter is the perfect alternative to harmful and non organic moisturizers. Apply directly to dry skin for unparalleled results.

Coloring is fun for any age

We have a few adult coloring books around the house. They are really fun to color with when the little ones are coloring in theirs. Yes we still color in regular coloring books but have something a little more intricate is always nice .

This is book has lot of pages to color. If you have a scanner you can always just copy and then share with other adults in the home as well. Kind of like a grown up coloring contest if you will. Coloring for other is like blogging to me, very therapeutic. Coloring takes you back to when you were little when the worst thing you had to worry about is what to put on your Christmas list.

T-02S rechargeable motion sensing light

I really like these lights by OxyLED and can't wait to see what they come out with next. This time I am telling you about the T-02S rechargeable motion sensing light. When I first opened this I was happy because they had me at the word rechargeable but then I saw the charging cord and thought well it is nice it is rechargeable but once you stick it to where you need it how do you charge it with such a short card. It would have been nice if they made it so a magnet stuck to the wall so you can take it down for charging.

Well guess what? That is exactly how it was made.  I am in love with this. We put this one in our closet so we can see when we pick out our clothes. Easy to use charge, use, and install. It will go off in about 15 seconds once movement is not detected but  I found it to stay on for close to a minute before it shut off after movement  stopped.

You can find the OxyLED motion sensing light on Amazon.

Family Game Night with Roosterfin

Our family loves to play games and with it getting colder outside this is what we turn to on rainy, cold, or snowy days when the children can't go outside to play. Yes we play games in the spring and summer, just not as much as in the colder months. What can I say we are blessed with children who would rather be outside playing then inside cooped up.

Recently we had the chance to try out three new to our family games from Roosterfin through a featured party opportunity from Tryazon. We were able to try out Rooster Race, Lumpy Cubes, and Mohawks.

What we loved most about the games from Roosterfin is that they were new and different from other games available, which is what we strive for.

Here we are opening and learning about the games while having fun doing it.

First Game up

Mohawks

Mohawks is a really fun game to play. Each player gets two balls of the same color and you have to bounce them on a table into the goal. We had lots of fun with this. You could also play with 6 people with 2 of each being on a team if you want to change up the game a little. 

Lumpy Cubes

Lumpy Cubes is awesome and probably the one we had the most fun with. As you can see I was the big winner tonight. Very easy to play up to 4 people unless you want to do teams. You flip a card over and everyone playing needs to put their cubes together in the same order as the card says. First person with the right combination wins. 

Rooster Race

Rooster Race was really fun as well. I would suggest that there be more corn included because we ran out and had to use slips of paper for corn. In this game everyone is dealt cards with one card being left face up on the table. You then take turns guessing if your card is going to be lower or higher, if you guess right you get a corn, wrong and you lose a corn. When all cards are flipped over the winner will be the one with the most corn.

What we like about all of the games from Roosterfin is that they are easy to set up, playtime is quick, and the games keep everyone involved. I look forward to trying out more games from Roosterfin in the future. 

You can find Roosterfin games on their website or on Amazon.
