I can't wait to play with this amazing set when my nephew comes over this weekend. He is 5 years old and I am sure he's going to have a lot of fun (and so am I being a kid at heart haha).
The set is so pretty and comes packed in a suitcase type box that is light and easy to carry around. The amount of kinetic sand in it is actually quite well portioned at about 2lbs. There were about 5 colors in it, but once you mix and match, it opens up a variety of so many additional colors.
The set is literally a kitchen in a box. It comes with stickers and molds and the briefcase type holder box for it all actually doubles down as a sandbox.
There are so many goodies like scoops and spoons and a frenchfry press, milkshake cup and tons of stickers to create that ultimate unique experience of having all your kitchen tools to watch the little ones whip up a unique meal for you, encouraging their creativity and being a great source of enhancing their sensory development and motor skills.
Burgers are on the menu this weekend with fries and I can't wait to see my nephew's face light up when he starts playing around with it.
The kinetic sand is made of natural sand and doesn't create any messes. Also the playset is very presentable and makes a great gift too for Christmas and birthdays for the little ones.

The key ingredients of Vitamin C, Zinc and Elderberry are key ingredients that help with the strengthening and proper functioning of the immune system and metabolism function
Sambucol's carefully crafted gummies have no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. They taste great and I took one during the evening when I got back from work when I had a slight flu.
It definitely aided in the process of shortening the duration of the flu and it's effects can be felt almost instantaneously.
Definitely recommended and will be buying this for the whole family, especially during the winter months.

I was pleasantly surprised with the build and quality of this frypan. Paderno is know for making quality products and I have to say that I am so happy to have a frypan from a company that knows its customer base and focuses on a state of the art product.
The pan looks like stainless steel, it cleans like non-stick and it has this durable, stick -resistant coating that is so convenient in releasing the food without it sticking.
Also the one unique feature I noticed us that it has this amazing patterned grid that keeps oil and butter beneath the food and the aluminum core with the "hybrid clad technology" ensures a unique cooking experience for the perfect sear with even heat distribution.
It is very easy to clean and works with electric, gas, ceramic, halogen and induction.
It is proudly Made in Canada and has a lifetime warranty.
The handles stay cool no matter how high you cook on and it is oven safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
If you are looking for a frypan that ticks all the right boxes, this is the one for you.
Two thumbs up and totally recommended!!

Aveeno has always been a household brand in our household for quality products that we have used in our family for years. I have not had the opportunity to try this Tone + Texture body scrub in the past.
I have tried many exfoliators and body washes, but very few stand up to the results desired.
This product not only exfoliates and gets rid of dry skin and other impurities, but keeps the skin supple, fresh and nourished. You can visibly see the bumps and even skin go away and it also not harsh on the skin, making it an excellent product for those with softer or sensitive skin.
It is very eco-friendly in its packaging, but above all ticks several boxes for what I look for in a product.
These attributes are its parabens free, soap free, sulfate and dye free etc. and of course uses its specially formulate non-gmo oats method to bring you one of the best scrubs out there.
Totally Recommended!!

When looking for a moisturizer, there are many key aspects that need to be evaluated. Is it fine with dry skin, is it parabens and sulfate free, does it treat sensitive skin harshly etc. This moisturizing facial cleanser is a gem. Made by a reputed brand, it keeps skin soft, healthy and supple unlike things like soap bars that are harsh on skin. The oat formula is pure genius and serves as a sort of a scrub to take off impurities and dirt and oils etc. It is also a very eco conscious move with 30% recycled plastics being used in the packaging.
I would totally recommend this to anyone looking for a healthy, good quality facial cleanser that goes above and beyond in producing the desired results.

I am very particular of the creams, moisturizers and makeup I use on a daily basis as part of my beauty regime everyday. The reason I love this face cream is it is actually made for the customer, keeping their needs as the primary focus.
To begin with, this cream can be used not just on your face, but also on your neck. It is also fragrance-free and parabens free. This is a huge plus in my book.
It is very lightweight and leaves your skin soft, supple and healthy looking.
It is made with non-GMO oats and the tube is made with 40% recycled plastics.
I definitely support a brand that is eco friendly and strives to make a difference, while producing the quality that has been so admired by all of their customers over the years from their brand.

For those of you who know me - Migraines, headaches etc. have been part of a regular thing due to my work and personal life schedules. I also work a lot on the computer due to my job requirements.
Tylenol has been my "go-to" for many years and works wonders.
One thing I did notice though is that I sometimes need 3-4 tablets when my migraine gets really bad.
I always hoped that they came out with something stronger and they sure did with this Ultra-Relief product offering.
Apart from the Acetaminophen which is regular, they have a dosage of caffeine that acts as a pain relief enhancer and within 30-45 mins and just one tablet, you feel instant relief.
I appreciate this as it means I have to take just one tablet and the extra-strength capacity does the job.
It is easy to swallow and I totally appreciate the work they have done with offering this to the market.

I was extremely excited to be trying this 12-piece, 5-ply cookware set that had its humble beginnings in our own backyard (Canada) on Prince Edward Island.
This cookware set has a multi-layer copper technology that provides exceptional performance in the way it distributes heat, for superior cooking results.
I haven't used the whole set as yet, but after using the pan to fry a steak and saute some vegetables, I noticed that it only needed a low to medium setting to cook and got the results needed faster as opposed to the other cookware I own. I never even needed to use the high setting.
Also, it can be used on electric or gas stove tops, so no limitations there.
Some helpful facts for those pondering upon buying this amazing piece of professional cookware can be summarized as follows by me after usage -
1) Do not have this on high heat too many times. It's not needed. You may find the heat travelling on the sides of the pan and also the handles. Only use the high setting for boiling water, reducing liquids etc.
2) Add salt etc. to the food after you heat the food or liquids up so there are no spots that may be hard to remove. It may cause pits too.
3) Remember that this is a high quality cookware set, but also due to the copper material it does need extra care. It is not dishwasher safe due to this - I would recommend handwashing it.
4) If you see any watermarks remain, remove with a sponge - maybe a brush too - You can even dip it in lemon juice or white vinegar. But definitely a simple handwash works wonders.
5) Use scrubbing pads on the interior, but try to use a soft cloth on the exterior surface.
The overall great thing about this set is that Paderno has a Limited Lifetime Warranty. I have never experience a cookware set that made me feel like a professional chef in the comfort of my home. It looks amazing and I definitely plan to take good care of the set so it can last me many years.

This coffee maker is so aesthetically beautiful. It adds an element of elegance to all my kitchenware which is silver and black as well. The 12 cup programmable coffee maker is sleek and fits in compactly into any kitchen space. The stainless steel exterior is really easy to clean and it is very lightweight too.
The main thing which caught my eye was the fact that after selecting the strength of the coffee and the number of cups I wanted to brew into the glass carafe that came with it, I noticed that it was extremely easy to pour into individual cups. It did not drip at all and also entered this really amazing setting that keeps the coffee warm for 2 hours on the warming plate.
It was easy to detach the removable water reservoir that had a water level gauge on it for convenience, and the pause capability allows for no mess or spillage when brewing.
Another phenomenal feature is built in filter basket. It eliminates the need for individual filters and this is much more economical and eco friendly in my opinion.
This exceptional coffee maker is great for everyone, but in my case when it's a family of 4+ people or when we have friends over, it has made the process so much more convenient.
Two thumbs up for a great product that is designed in Canada, has perfect craftsmanship and is a must have for every household where coffee is a daily part of the day.

I had the opportunity to try the ALEX ULTRA Advanced Latex sealant for the first time. I have used many brands over the years for my caulking needs and was looking forward to seeing how this fared against those.
I decided to do up my tiles in the bathroom above my bathtub, as it needed some immediate attention.
After scraping off the old caulk that had shrunk and also got cracks, it was time to get to work.
I cleaned and dried the surface and cut the nozzle for the caulk gun and applied it the normal way as I have done in the past when caulking.
It was really easy to apply and cleaned out any excess caulk on the edges. I was pleasantly blown away by how fast it dried. It does say 15 mins on the packaging, but I left it for an hour just to make sure.
The sealant is brand and mold resistant. This is a big plus point in my books. It is also anti-shrink and offers a lifetime guarantee, which speaks a lot about the brand as a whole.
One thing I noticed is that there is no heavy odor lingering around. It came off very smooth when applying. It is also 100% waterproof and doesn't pick up dirt.
This brand has taught of everything when keeping its customers first and understanding their needs. I can't wait to finish the painting over the caulk next week, without having to worry about underlying cracks and it shrinking, like some of the other past brands I have used.
Two thumbs up and 100% Recommended for all your caulking needs!!
