Pumpkin Pie Fruit Leather #Recipe #FoodDehydrator

It's Fall!! 
Time to whip up all the pumpkin goodies.


I was staring at my abundance of canned pumpkin thinking "hmm what is something creative I can whip up with this that is not already all over the net." Then I looked at my Excaliber Dehydrator and it all came to me. Pumpkin fruit leather. I decided to take it one step further and turn it into Pumpkin Pie Fruit Leather.
So delicious even my 7 year old chowed them!

Pumpkin Pie Fruit Leather

Ingredients
  • 3 cans of pumpkin puree
  • 1 can of unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 package of unflavored geletin
  • 2t vanilla
  • 1C firmly packed brown sugar
  • 3T Cinnimon
  • dash of cloves
  • dash of nutmeg


Directions Are Wicked Easy!

  • Mix all ingredients EXCEPT gelatin in a pot.
  • Place on Med and simmer for about 10 minutes
  • Make sure you keep stirring
  • Lay the parchment on your dehydrator trays

#coverplug electrical outlet cover #Review #Giveaway





They are not kidding when they call this "The Better Outlet Cover" 

It was super easy to install and so versatile!








Have you ever used those small plastic pronged plugs that insert into each individual outlet? I have and hated them!  Not only do they stick out like a sore thumb, but they are so outdated. I remember putting them all over my mothers house when she had my son there. After a few days I would find them a strew. The cat was smart enough to get them out and he does not have opposable thumbs! This always scared me. If my cat can get them out, so can my son.


CoverPlug has the right idea. Make the outlets unnoticeable. If they do not even notice it is there, the least likely a finger or toy will get in. Just out of the box the solid white plates already reduce the appearance of the outlets If anything they look like the squares you screw in if you have a hole from a previous outlet. 

The coolest part about the CoverPlug Electrical Outlet Cover is the ability to paint it to match your wall. Super, wicked cool! If you have leftover paint from doing your walls, just slap some on the outlet cover and it makes it almost invisible to the passerby. If you have wallpaper with a busy theme, do not worry. you can just use the wallpaper on the outlet cover as well. Maybe you are creative like me. Take your paint and do a whimsical design, or animals to match a zoo theme. The possibilities are endless!

#instanatural Deep Cleansing Facial Oil #Review








 I am not going to lie I mainly use this as a makeup remover. The facial oil gets off even my super duper, hardcore, waterproof mascara. No streaks! Seriously none of that annoying under eye black makeup residue. Just nice, smooth clean eyes.





When I first got the InstaNaturals Deep Cleansing Facial Oil I ran to my bath room right away. I had fallen asleep with 100 pounds of makeup on and realized I had no more facial wash left. I used WAY to much. I was washing oil off my face for ten minutes. Good to know that all you need is a tiny drop to wash your entire face and neck.

I have dry skin and rosacea so as far as a cleanser goes I need something with an exfoliating element. This Deep Cleansing Facial Oil did lack that so I ended up using it as my daily make up remover. It is so easy. All you do is put a drop onto a cotton disc and wipe away. If I use a bit too much and there is some oily residue on my face I just wet a wash cloth and it wipes away clean. I really love this stuff. Check it out!

Phytoceramides #Review #SanoPhytos





Besides all of the health benefits, my favorite thing about Sano Naturals Phytoceramides Is the packaging. 









      Instead of looking like a medicine bottle, they designed it to look like a skin cream container. Every time I go to take one it reminds me how incredible Phytoceramides are for      my skin. I love that. Such a small thing for Sano Naturals to do, but had a huge impact on                my decision to stay with them versus other phytoceramides companies. 




I do use a serum and cream regimen on my face and neck every night before bed, but it feels great to know that I am helping my body retain its natural young skin from the inside as well. If you can do it right on the inside there is less need to work so hard on the outside. Your body does it for you!.

#Adovia Facial #Moisterizer #Review






The winter is coming! Which is great for everything but my dry skin. There is nothing more important then a good moisturizer Adovia nails it with their Facial Moisturizing cream.







I love Adovia, I am pretty sure you have heard me talk about them over and over again. The dead Sea minerals they use in their products help leave you with radiant skin. The Facial moisturizer did just that. I love it! When I put it on my face it went on kind of thick, but then absorbed quickly and left no oily residue. Just the tiniest bit covered my entire face and neck.




Adovia says you can use it as a makeup base, although I have not tried that yet myself. I just put it on before bed every night after cleansing my face. I am seeing a noticeable change in the tightness of my eyes and the wrinkles.

 Good news.. I decided not to give up. I am just starting to establish relationships with you all and love it! I am going to slow down a lot for a while until I get settled so My facebook page might not flood your wall every day, but I promise, I am still here... I just need to relax a little.


Any tips on how you manage 1000000 things in your life. I could really use some advice.

TRUE SOL Omega 3 Fish Oil #Review #Giveaway #truesolomega3








Omega 3 Fish Oil is a must have addition to your daily nutrition routine.



My girlfriend has the hardest time swallowing any pills or vitamins. It is escruciating to watch lol. So when she told me she decided to start taking fish oil because of all the benefits I laughed. Those vitamins are always so huge and hard to swallow. We had tried quite a few different brands ad while she did manage to get some down the benefits didnt really show. Plus they were expensive!

Lastly We gave True Sol Omega Fish Oil a go. I have used TrueSol before and have always been satisfied with their products. What I loved most about these was the enteric coating. The coating made swallong the Fish Oil so much easier Not to mention there was zero nasty, fishy aftertaste.

I am one of those crazies who are looking for my glasses when they are on my face. I lose things two minutes after finally finding them. It still happens, but not nearly as much as it used to. I have noticed in both of us an increase of energy and a general more relaxed, smiling household.  



Research has proven that Omega 3 essential fatty acids are essential for optimal health.
Studies have shown that Omega 3 benefits can include a decease in the following ailments 
  • Promotes Heart Health - heart attack, stroke, coronary heart disease, arrhythmia

Pure Body Nature 80% HCA Pure Garcinia Cambogia Formula #Review



Garcinia Cambogia gives your body the extra boost it needs to kick your weight loss into gear.


Pure Body Naturals has a variety of supplements and healthcare products. I am lucky to review  their Garcinia Cambogia.




I have been struggling with weight loss for the past 5 years. When I stopped drinking alcohol I gained almost 100 pounds. I know they say you will lose weight when you cut out the alcohol , but I eat while dealing with addiction problems so that was not the case for me. 

Anyways I know you guys want to hear about how awesome Pure Body Naturals Garcinia Cambogia Is so here goes. It was the boost I needed. I lost about 65 pounds just eating healthy and working out, but could not seem to knock the 35 extra down. I started taking Garcinia Cambogia 80% HCA 30 minutes before each meal and have noticed a difference in my pants already. I am not hoping on a scale because its against my rules right no but The waistband does not lie!






I know there are a lot of different garcinia cambogia out there, and I have used quite a few of them. This one has giving me the fastest results. I believe it is because the HCA content is a full 80% that is 3000 Mg every day.

Summit Nutrition #raspberrykeytones #review




Raspberry Keytones are the key to burning body fat and giving you an energy boost.


Summit Nutrition has quite a selection of health and beauty supplements. I am reviewing their Pure Raspberry Keytones.






The first thing I noticed when I opened my bottle of Pure Raspberry Keytones is that they smelled delicious! Nothing is worse then having to swallow something that smells all funky and gross. Plus they were red which is a color I most associate with raspberry. I liked that they were capsules as well. Capsules for me are much easier to swallow then tablets and do not get stuck in your throat which that nasty chalky taste.

What I like the most about Summit Nutrition Pure Raspberry Key tones is that there are no fillers or additives. 100% extracted from natural resources. They help break down fat and maintain a healthy digestive system. I did not a change in my bathroom habbit the first week, but it stabled out shortly after.

#excaliber #fruitrollup Peach and strawberry #pinterest

Everyone needs a little sugar in their life right?







Browsing Pinterest like I always do, I found so many recipes for natural,healthy DIY fruit roll ups. I love a nice healthy alternative as much as the next person so I got anxious to try it out. Of course I had nothing I needed and my son was in bed so I couldn't go out. I decided to leave it be and go to bed... JUST KIDDING. 

I decided since it was my first shot to just use what ever I could find, no recipe, and see what happens.. This fluorescent red result obviously not 100% Natural, but still 100% delicious!


I used 
  • 1 large can of peaches in heavy syrup
  • 1 can of unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 package of strawberry Jello
  • 1 cup of cold water
First pour the entire contents of the peaches into a saucepan and simmer for a while

I used a potato masher to break it up while it was cooking down.

Then I added the applesauce and brought to a boil for 5 minutes or so.

Turned off heat and added the Jello. Mixed well.

Poured the mixture into the blender with the cold water . blend till smooth

Waited a while for it to cool down a bit and start to thicken.

spread it on my Excaliber sheets and let it dehydrate for about 8 hours.

I would love to show you a completed picture, but they were devoured faster then I could roll them up. I reccomend checking them after 7 hours because some of the thinner spreads were over done.

#garciniadearnature #Review #Giveaway


This is the answer to all your weight loss prayers. 


DearNature has a variety of healthcare supplements. Today I am reviewing the Garcinia Cambogia X





I am a foodie. I love to cook, bake, and eat foods from all over the world. It is hard to lose weight when there is so many delicious options out there! I have tried doing fad diets before such as no carb, high fat/protein, special K, and more. They always work until my mouth gets bored.

I realized it was not that I had to stop eating and cooking all of the foods I enjoy, it was learning when to stop. Dear Natures Garcinia Cambogia X really came in handy for this. It helped me body suppress the appetite feeling full faster. I eat the foods I want ( and work out of course). The weight is coming off!. 15 pounds so far. I love it. 

DearNature's Garcinia Cambogia contains HCA which blocks fat by obstructing a major enzyme called Citrate Lyas. Your body needs this to make fat from carbohydrates.

#ozeri Fresko Duo Salt and Pepper Mill.





This is a highly functional, modern version of the all time classic salt and pepper mill.


Ozeri provides us with an amazing product selection for home technology. I am pleased to review the Fresko Duo Salt and Pepper Mill.




What tastes better then freshly ground spices? Trick question because there is nothing that tastes better . I can always taste what has been cooked with 20 year old pantry herbs and what has been freshly ground.

 I have been using salt and peppers mills for a long time now. The only downside is how big and bulky they are. It is hard to keep them in the cabinet because of the height and huge turning handles and They aren't my style to keep out on the table.

Ozeri's Fresko Duo Sat and Pepper Mill took everything I knew about the Mills and flipped it upside down. Not only is the salt and peeper in one mill, but the entire thing is slim and fits perfectly inside my cabinets.Too.

To fill the chambers all you do is unscrew the small part under the removable cap. Very easy. Also made is super to clean as well in case of long term use buildup. The grinders are ceramic and the plastic is BPA free. Such a great gift Idea!

Pure Shea Butter Review #Adovia #Review




Pure Shea butter leaves your skin softer and healthier then ever before.


Adovia has a variety of mineral beauty products. Today I am reviewing their Pure Shea Butter.






I am a do it yourself junkie. I love the idea of making your own everything! I have always toyed with the idea of do it yourself lip balms and other beauty products. When I saw the prices of pure shea butter I always kind of put it off. Adovia's Shea Butter wa a no brainer. So afordable and amazing quality.

The Shea Butter came in a nice and tightly sealed tub. As usual Adovia shipping came quick and wrapped in Bubble wrap. I have ordered from Adovia about 4 times and the packages always came faster then expected. Anyways I know everyone wants to know about how incredible it worked!

First off I decided to stop using my psoriasis cream and switch to rubbing the plain shea butter on the rough spots instead. Not only did it not come back, but my skin felts so soft. I love a good natural remedy instead of using medications. I went crazy with it I have been using it on my elbows, lips, feet, and knees. Love it.
