Hango Lunch Bags!


When I saw these cute pink lunch bags, I just had to have them! They look like designer lunch bags! The Hango Lunch Bags come in two sizes inside a Hango duffle bag. They also come in black, if you want a different color.


The large bag is 6X6X10 inches, while the small bag is 5X5X7.5 inches. I like that it comes with two different sizes, as some days I just need enough space for a few snacks and a drink while other days I need enough room for lunch for three people. It is thermal insulated to keep your food fresh, but since I live in Florida, I like to add an ice pack. The set cost $25 (at the time I write this) and comes with a lifetime warranty.

Hango Small Lunch Box : Juice, GoGo Squeeze, Big Slice Apples, Fruit Cup, Ritz Crackers.

When I first opened the bag, it had a strong smell. I let them air out, and the smell was gone the next day. The big bag has a lot of room and is great for taking to work or the park. One day I fit a salad, 3 sandwiches, a juice box for my son, some fruit and an ice pack.  The small one is great for days when you are on the go. I easily fit a few snacks, cut up fruit in a container, and a juice box for my son. I use the small one more than the large one since I'm a stay at home mom and rarely need to pack so much food. The only thing I can think of that could make this set better would be to include an ice pack that fits perfectly in this bag. The ice packs I have are either too long, or too small.

Hango Large Lunch Box : Everything in the small lunch box plus Ice Pack, Orange, Banana, and Starbucks Coffee.

Fibrite Microfiber Mop


Have you ever had a mop that was dirtier than your floors you are trying to clean? Sometimes no matter how good your homemade floor cleaner is, you won't get a good clean unless you have a good mop. Sometimes a good mop gets to a point where it gets too dirty and you aren't able to clean it.



After my mop looked like it's been living in  a dirt hole no matter how much I wash it and drop it in bleach, I decided to switch to a microfiber mop. The Fibrite Microfiber Mop has a removable bristle pad, so I can clean it on a regular basis. This means I can have clean floors as long as I can wash the mop! The telescopic mop stick that can extend up to 49.5 inches and remains 30 inches when retracted. I love this because I can make it shorter for my son to use, while I can use it completely extended. We try to have our toddler "clean up" his messes, and the mop has become part of his tools. Another cool feature is that the base is bendable up 90 degrees, so I can clean under the couch easily.


  • Fibrite offers the highest in quality microfiber products. The Fibrite Bendable Mop's ability to bend 90 degrees at both ends of the mop base allows for freedom to clean tough corners across the room, including stairs!
  • The high-quality microfiber bristle pad leaves smooth surfaces spotless and shiny, removing residue that generic mops cannot.
  • This mop is perfect for dry cleaning and dusting as well as wet mopping. Dust tables, television, wall units, blinds, anything around the house or office!
  • Included is the telescopic mop stick that can extend up to 49.5 inches! The stick is 30 inches when retracted
  • The microfiber pad is washable and reusable. The high quality material accounts for its longevity so it can be used time and time again!

Bulu Box - January

I'm so excited to get my first Bulu Box after reading so much about them. Bulu Box is a monthly subscription box that cost $10 per month. You get to try health, nutrition, and weight loss products catered to your profile. When you sign up, you fill out a questionair so the products fit your lifestyle better. To get 3 months for $10, use code WOWZA and click here. (Code valid until January 31st, 2015)


This box came with six awesome goodies. This box was great for Hubby and I, as we were able to share everything in the box. This box came with different types of products; some products were preworkout, some were for weightloss, a few snacks, and motivational support. Bulu Box is great for people who want to achieve fitness goals, such as gain muscle, lose weight, or live a healthy lifestyle.

Bulu Box - January : Succeed At Weight Loss



Axis Labs SMA5H Compound 5 : This Preworkout was claimed by the Hubby. SMA5H helps you build lean muscle and burn fat. Hubby said it is not as good as other preworkouts he takes but it was decent.

Nutrex Research Lipo-6 Black Ultra Concentrate : Another sample claimed by the Hubby. This fat burner is also a appetite suppressant and energy booster. Hubby loved the LIPO-6 Black, and has tried older versions as well.

NightFood : The Cookies n' Dreams bar was a great alternative to high calorie snacks. I shared these with my toddler who hogged most of it. It was a very chocolaty crunchy bar.
Mediterranean Snacks Baked Lentil Crackers : These Gluten Free chips are great to pear up with some salsa! The Lentil Crackers are low in calories and sodiun, yet high in protein and fiber.
Magnet Motivation : This was my favorite thing in the box. It is a great way to write yourself a reminder, a compliment, or motivational boost. I keep these on the fridge!
Miracle Tree Organic Moringa Wellness Tea : This tea was also a favorite. Organic Moringa has over 90 nutrients, 47 antioxidants, and 25 vitamins and mineraks. It is great for energy and vitality, and taste great! It was very fruity.

I loved a lot of the items that came in this box, but I do not think it is worth $10 per month for such small samples. What I do like about it is that you get to try samples without having to buy so many different products. Most of these items I haven't heard of until they arrived to my doorstep. The deal I mentioned above where you get 3 months for the price of one is a great deal. The good thing is that you can review the items you receive for points. You can exchange those points in their online store.


Use code WOWZA to get 3 months for the price of one. To use the code, click here. (Code valid until January 31st, 2015)

Loaded Baked Potatoes with Hippie Dust


On my quest for a healthier New Year, I have come by many products to add to my diet. A few of them haven't tasted that great, a few haven't interested me, and quite a few of them have become staples of my diet. I decided to give Sari Nutritional Yeast a try since it is a B 12 super house. Nutritional yeast is a cheesy flavored Superfood that is vastly used by vegans and health conscious individuals.


It is not a secret that I take a lot of medications and supplements. My medicine "cabinet" takes up about half of my kitchen counter because I take many of these pills and drops on a daily basis due to many health problems. So whenever I can find a way to add these supplements naturally into my diet, I give it a try. What attracted me to Nutritional Yeast is the high content of B 12. As someone who is deficient in B12, this seemed to interest me. I was a little afraid of trying out the Hippie Dust, as some people call it, due to the original name of it. So I decided to make some loaded potatoes with it to ease into the world of Nutritional Yeast.

Decorating with Toddlers : Bobee Wall Decals


Here's another section of our Toddler Section. Within the next few weeks, I will be putting another Page on the Menu Bar above, so you can easily find these. Please remember to pin these to keep them handy!


The Bobee Wall Decals are so adorable! They are a great way to add an extra touch to a nursery, kid's room, or if you are like us - the living room. We have a little area in our small apartment for Aiden's toys in the living room. On way I make each area distinct is by decorating his side. He has a carpet, on top of our tiled floors, a lego toy bin, and a small Ikea table that he can easily play on. After the holidays, I decided to switch around the room and the decals. These adorable vinyl decals added a nice touch to his area.  Aiden will look at them throughout the day and make an elephant noise!


These American made Bobee Wall Elephant decals comes with two elephants. As we have called them, Momma Elephant and Baby Elephant. Momma Elephant is 9 inches tall by 12 inches wide, while the Baby Elephant is 7 inches tall by 9 inches wide. They are easy to install and are transferable, so if you want to change things around like I often do, go for it! Wall decals are such an inexpensive way to decorate a room and to even let your child decorate with. It's not permanent, and you won't need to paint over it! If we weren't moving soon, I would paint a green landscape with trees and have the Elephants roaming about. That would be pretty neat!

In fact,  I might just switch them around and place them in the bedroom, and place the polka dot wall decals back into his play area. But then again, we might be moving in the next few months, so I'm looking for fresh new ideas to spice up the new place. For example, I have my eye on the Bobee Polka Dot decals in pear and baby blue for wherever we place his play area in the new apartment.


Check out the Bobee Website.
Buy the Elephant Wall decals here.


I will be having more Toddler posts coming up, specially with the new move. I can't wait to come up with some new decorating and organization ideas to make his play area amazing! Thanks for reading and make sure to leave a comment!

Yes, my son eats hemp seeds too. I add it to his peanut butter sandwiches sometimes. Its a great source of protein, so we have learned many ways to enjoy it!


What's my favorite way to add hemp seeds into my diet? Smoothies! Make a powerful smoothie and add a serving of Hemp seeds! It's such an easy way to incorporate them, I can experiment with many different flavors. My favorite smoothie mix is:

1/2 cup Lactaid milk or almond milk
1 cup frozen strawberries
2 bananas
1 cup spinach
2 tsp PB2 with Chocolate
2 tsp Super Hemp Seeds


This smoothie is such a great start to the day, or as a post workout drink. You can add more milk or water to make it smoother. I add some more depending on my taste buds that day.

Yalmeh Glory Eye Bright Gel


After loving the Yalmeh Super Youth Eye Cream a few weeks back, I decided to try another of their products. Like the other Yalmeh Cream I tried, this one also works for dark circles and wrinkles.


I got the Yalmeh Glory Eye Bright Gel for my dark circles and for my wrinkles. Ok, I'm 23 and I don't have eye wrinkles, except I do! On my forehead.... They are from laughing, and while most people don't really see it, It makes me self conscious. This cream has helped smoothed it out a bit over the past 10 days. I simply apply this cream all around my forehead and eyes. Kind of in the shape of a sleep mask. I have to say, I love how it doesn't have any strong smells, oiliness, and is made with natural ingredients. I don't need to smell like peppermint, have more oily skin, or extra chemicals on my skin.

This little container is small. Extremely small. I highly recommend getting a bigger aize. The 0.5 OZ won't last a month. The gel is great, I just don't find this container big enough. Mine is half empty already.
