Resolve to Improve Your Dental Health in the New Year with Oral-B Toothbrushes

December 13, 2015 by Kathryn 179 Comments

Having dealt with bad teeth for most of my life, I know how hard it can be to transform dental habits. But with the time of New Year’s Resolutions fast approaching, committing to better dental health can be one of the simplest and best goals you can set for the new year! And with a little help from Oral-B, it just takes a few minutes every day to see a big difference in your dental health (and your dental bills)!

Winter White

Start the year off right with a winter white smile. We all know the winter is sometimes dark and cold, but you’ll want to get out of bed to start your day off right with the New Power Brush User Oral-B Vitality Sensitive Electric Toothbrush. Your teeth will feel noticeably cleaner, your mouth noticeably fresher and when you walk out the door in the morning, your day will be off on the right foot with a winter white smile. [Read more…]

New GLAD Disney Sandwich and Snack Bags Make Lunches Fun and Easy

When it comes to making school lunches fun, I have a middle-of-the-road approach. I like adding a little something special to my kids’ lunchboxes to get them excited about their food, but I’m not willing to spend hours creating elaborate themed lunches. That’s why I love finding simple, yet fun ways to make a school lunch fun and this year, GLAD Canada has teamed up with Disney to help me do just that!

New GLAD Disney bags in sandwich and snack sizes feature favourite children’s Disney characters, from Woody to Elsa. Recently I received an assortment of the new bags and a grocery gift card so that I could put together a fun themed lunch for that all-important first day of school. And with these cheerful bags, it was no problem at all! [Read more…]

Make Tropical Mango Yonanas and Other Healthy Real Fruit Recipes with the Yonanas Machine-Giveaway

School is ending, Canada day is quickly approaching and here in Saskatchewan, the weather is hot, hot, hot! I’m feeling that summertime spirit already and that means free time is spent outside in the sunshine as much as possible. But this heat has also been giving me a craving for cold, creamy treats and as much as I love ice cream, it has too much fat and sugar for me to want to feed it to my family too often!

That’s why I was so excited to test out the Yonanas Frozen Dessert Maker. This fun device turns frozen bananas and other fruit into a creamy, dreamy soft-serve style treat. Since our weather’s been so tropical lately, I decided to whip up a Tropical Mango Yonanas recipe using banana and mango!
