Is there anything better than a bite of creamy, dreamy, melt-in-your-mouth milk chocolate? I don’t think so, and when I decide to indulge in a treat, chocolate is usually my first choice. So, when I find a new way to enjoy my favourite flavour, I can’t wait to dig in.
And this summer, there’s a perfect way to do that…new Hershey’s Chocolate Pudding cups! Recently I received some of this decadent refrigerated chocolate pudding to test out for myself and I couldn’t wait to try it.
I’ve always been a big fan of natural products in the house, whether I’m looking for safe and effective cleaning products or bath and body care for my boys. So, when I discovered ATTITUDE last year, I fell in love. The company’s philosophy is simple: parents deserve high-quality products with worry-free ingredients for their families. I’m especially fond of the company’s sun care collection since I don’t care for commercial sunscreen. The mineral-based sun care did a great job of protecting my boys on our Caribbean cruise last year!
But for infants or children that have sensitive skin, even ATTITUDE’s worry-free ingredient lineup may not be enough. Which is why the company has introduced its brand-new ATTITUDE Sensitive Skin Care collection! Boasting products both for babies and families, this new line has been tested in an independent laboratory and received EWG verification and the National Eczema Association seal of acceptance. The addition of up to 3% colloidal oatmeal in the products helps soothe and protect the sensitive skin of babies, children and adults! [Read more…]
One of the very few downsides of loving coffee as much as I do is that I tend to have way too many different devices for brewing that perfect cup. From single-serve machines to drip brewers and everything in between, my love of fancy coffee drinks means I’m either constantly moving different brewers in and out of my cupboard or I’m losing all my counter space to multiple appliances.
But just in time for holiday entertaining, De’Longhi has come to my rescue with a brand-new solution that lets me brew all my favourite drinks with one space-saving device! The De’Longhi BCO330T Combination Machine is a combination drip brewer and espresso/cappuccino machine that lets me choose between brewing a pot of coffee, whipping up a restaurant-worthy gourmet beverage or both, any time I like!

When it comes to shopping for babies, something super soft and super sweet is always sure to be appreciated. And if you’re looking for gifts for a new little one for this holiday season, look no further than the adorable selection of clothing, toys, blankets and more at Bunnies By The Bay! This online boutique created by sisters Krystal and Suzanne carries products that are super soft and cuddly, visually appealing and sure to become beloved family heirlooms. Recently I had the chance to review a few of the products myself, the Peas & Love Quilt and the Bye Bye Buddy. I was even able to personalize the Bye Bye Buddy with the name of my new baby niece!
The Peas & Love collection is one of my personal favourites at Bunnies By The Bay, and this quilt is a great example of why. The colours are perfectly suited for both boys and girls, and the adorable bunnies and vegetables that adorn each piece add subtle brightness to a nursery. But as much as little ones will love looking at the designs on this blanket, they’ll love cuddling up with it even more! The soft velour and plush faux fur make it so warm and snuggly that parents may just wish they could borrow it too! [Read more…]
This past summer, I had the chance to travel to sunny Los Angeles with eOne Films and attend an exclusive premiere of the hit comedy Bad Moms. The movie hit all the right notes in showing off the fun, frustration and outright hilarity of being a mom, and I laughed to tears more than once as I watched. When Bad Moms hit theatres, the response was just as enthusiastic as mine had been and women of all ages celebrated their own inner bad mom!
Now, the hottest comedy of the summer is out on Blu-ray and Digital HD, and eOne Films is encouraging you to celebrate the release by enjoying your own #BadMomsNightIn! Pour a glass of wine, call up your mom squad and pop in the movie for a night that’s sure to be full of fun, laughter and plenty of reminiscing about your own “bad mom” moments! [Read more…]
