Manischewitz We loved building the Chanukah House.  It was so much fun for my son, 9, and my mother, to do together.  Everything you need is in the kit, and it’s so inexpensive.  This was a great memory, for my son, doing this, kind of like a home economics class, because he’s being homeschooled this year, with the Coronavirus going on. We dipped right into it, as soon as it was built.  It is delicious!  I can’t believe how good the Sugar Cookie is.  I didn’t even get to take a picture of the finished product, because my son was into it.   I should’ve taken a picture of him eating it, but I missed it…never thought of it, til it was too late. Some information about the Chanukah House, by Manischewitz: Kosher Parve Do-It-Yourself everything included Lactose free, nut free Kwik Build Edible Set Up Board Included There’s even a Star of David Cookie.  This would look cute, next to your Chanukah House!

Absolutely Gluten Free My son in law bit into these.  He said they were a delight.  He ate the entire bag, in one sitting.  He said he couldn’t get enough, and he wanted more, so low and behold, I ordered him some for Christmas.  The Absolutely Gluten Free Raw Coconut Chews were a real treat, to Josh. There are plain, and chocolate drizzled.  “Both were incredible,” says Josh.  The Absolutely Gluten Free Coconut Chews didn’t last around that 23 year old.  I didn’t know if he’d like them, but he LOVES them.  I’m so glad I was able to get him something, sweet, he will love this Holiday season.

I love tea, so this review was a no brainer.  Wissotzky Tea is really delicious!  My daughter, Sarah, age 23, loves all the varieties, as does her mother.  They’ve been drinking it, since we received our package.  “It’s the best tea I’ve had in a long time,” Sarah said.  She says nothing beats a cup of tea, in the morning, while getting ready for work. There’s an amazing box set, and it’s on sale, right now.  You will love it, I promise you.  These teas are excellent, and they hit the spot. Sarah really loves Ginger teas, because they say it helps with upset stomach, and she loves the variety above.  This Ginger and Turmeric Spiced Chai makes her feel better, any time she has an upset stomach.

Mighty Sesame Company Mighty Sesame Company has so many products, that are fantastic.  Everything they sent, was loved by our family.  They have it all covered, everything with sesame, including recipes on their site.  It’s a great site, and great food. My husband loved the Mighty Sesame Vanilla Tahini Bars.  He said, “They’re like heaven”.  He ate the entire box, within a few days.  He said he’d tried nothing like it in the past, but it had a great flavor, and texture.  The bars are only 100 Calories, and Gluten Free, among many other things.  The Tahini Bars also come in Pistachio & Cocoa. A twist on classic tahini. This Vanilla Tahini bar packs a naturally delicious vanilla flavor which partners perfectly with the delicate flavor of ground sesame seeds. This is true bliss! The Organic Tahini Bottle was fantastic too.  I added it to my hamburger for a sesame taste.  It was beyond delicious.  It’s vegan, and 1 ingredient. Delivering superior flavor, quality, and convenience with one ingredient in one bottle. This is surely a gift my family would love for Christmas, this year.  They have been eating it, since I received it, and even asked for more. Connect…

Clorox is one of my favorite brands, so when they introduced Scrubmate, I could resist trying it.  I use it, mostly, on my pots & pans.  It makes them crystal clean.  I love how clean my Kitchen becomes when using Scrubmate.  I even used them on my stove, and I’ve never, in 16 years, see my stove sparkle like that.

Holly’s Photography Holly’s Photography, in Uniontown, Pennsylvania is spectacular.  I needed a picture, the picture below, photoshopped, and she was able to do it.  And, it was done beautifully, and quickly. My Mother-in-law just passed, and I bought my sister-in-law a beautiful frame, but she had no newer pictures of her, with her mother.  So, I asked Holly to provide a service, and she did a super job.  We will be going to her, for all of our photography needs, from this point forward. The picture above is all I gave her to work with, and I messaged it to her over Facebook.  She really had only that!  She did a brilliant job, as you will see below. My sister-in-law couldn’t be more pleased, and proud to have this picture of her, and her mother. You can get this service, at a great price, whether you are near, or far.  She will be able to send you your picture(s) in the mail, or however you prefer.  She’s excellent, and not expensive. She’s been doing this, professionally, for 7 years, but has always had a passion for photography.  She’s friendly, and provides a timely service. If this is the job she…

We love GourmetGiftBaskets.com so much.  We used them for Father’s Day, and sent my dad this amazing crate, called Family Game Night Gift Crate.

My son-in-law loves his audio-technica Wireless Headphones.  He says the sound is so clear, and they fit in his ears effortlessly.   He says it’s easy to pause, during play-mode, and it’s easy to play, again.  There’s ear pieces for every ear size, and the USB charging cable is included.  He said he’s been looking for a good pair of wireless ear buds, and now he has them.  His favorite feature is the charging case!  He will never switch brands!  His next pair will be from this company, too.  He’s even talking about getting his dad some. Audio-technica is a great brand, and I’ve worked with them in the past.  Always great quality products, at a great price.  The wireless ear buds are a great way to prove that you get a great value, for non-expensive ear buds.  I love audio-technica, and will always purchase with them.

Nasopure really worked for my little one.  He’s 9, and it cleared out his, always clogged up, sinuses.  Then I had my 23 year old, daughter, try it, the adult version.  It worked for her even better.  Nasopure is a miracle worker, if you have bad sinuses. Nasopure  uses buffered salt packages, to help clear out your breathing passage.  It’s better than the leading brands.  I love this brand, and will continue to use it for my family.  My daughter said, “the mucous is gone, mom”.  So I know it works.  My 9 year old says it works, as well, but I don’t know that he’s noticed the change.  However, he sounds clearer. Clearing the Air, One Nose at A Time, is a wonderful book.  I’d order it, as well, if you plan on ordering this system.  It’s a great resource to have on hand, when using Nasopure.  You can read the first chapter here. “This book encompasses all of the ailments that are related to the nose. As Dr. Hana clearly understands, the nose is central to all respiratory ailments, from otitis, to rhinitis, sinusitis, asthma, bronchitis, and even bad breath. This is a wonderful collection of useful information,…
