My Review:

Made with Dad: From Wizards’ Wands to Japanese Dolls, Craft Projects to Build, Make, and Do with Your Kids is such an awesome book! My 7 year old loves doing arts and crafts so this is right up her alley. I love that this gets Dad involved in the arts and crafts projects! The book is full of arts and crafts that all seem relatively easy to create. The instructions and pictures are detailed and easy to follow even for young kids. A few that my husband and daughters tried were really simple and didn't require much time. I also really like that most of the supplies we already had at home since most of the projects use items commonly found around the house.  My husband really enjoyed creating the projects with the kids and found several more that he wants to do with them. This is a great book for both kids and Dads!

You can find Made with Dad: From Wizards’ Wands to Japanese Dolls, Craft Projects to Build, Make, and Do with Your Kids on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Indie Bound and other bookstores.

Davidson's Organic Dessert Teas Review

Our belief and philosophy revolves around pure and organic teas. To assure our customers that our complete supply chain process as well as product line is free of non-permitted ingredients, pesticides, dairy, GMOs etc., we share a snapshot of the process behind our guarantee for a pure organic cup of tea, the certification process, integrity in our operation and commitment to the general well being. You see, unlike a tomato or an apple, tea cannot be washed after harvesting. Water initiates the oxidation process, which turns green tea into black or oolong tea, and also develops caffeine and other enzymes. The bottom line is that whatever has been sprayed on the tea leaves, herbs, spices or worked into the soil, brews directly into the cup of tea you drink. Hence, we operate with utmost integrity in our sourcing, blending and manufacturing processes to provide a pure organic cup of tea.

Davidson’s Organics is certified organic by the Nevada Department of Agriculture (NDA) and certified Kosher by Kosher Supervision of America (KSA). Here is how we guarantee the purest uncompromised ingredients possible:

We work with farmers and producers in India, Sri Lanka, China, Latin America and Eastern Europe, with strong commitments to organic farming, to the National Organic Program (NOP) Certification and to the Jewish dietary laws of kashrut (Kosher).

All teas, spices, herbs and natural flavors are pre-authorized by our Organic and Kosher certifier, based on supplier certification and labeling. Every Davidson's package bears the USDA Organic seal which affirms that no toxic synthetic pesticides, chemical fertilizers, herbicides or fumigants are used in growing crops, and no artificial colors or synthetic ingredients are used in flavors. The USDA Organic icon also guarantees that no planting of genetically engineered crops or use of cloned animals or GE ingredients in food manufacturing is used. Organic farming, under the National Organic Program, forbids controversial GMO (genetically modified organisms) practices in growing and processing teas, herbs, spices or flavors. When it comes to tea, GE ingredients can sometimes be found in the flavors used for non-organic tea. Davidson’s has a firm policy against the use of GE ingredients, and you’ll never find them in our teas.

When ingredients come into our warehouse, they begin a strict quality control and handling procedure involving a series of tests and lot coding, aimed at absolute traceability. To protect the integrity of our ingredients, we screen for foreign materials, pests, proper sizing per approved specifications and heavy metal, which must pass stringent EPA and FDA levels. We also use a NOP approved sterilization treatment method as opposed to irradiation and ethylene oxide treatments, which compromise the quality and purity of the ingredients. These quality control measures and records begin in our receiving department and end in our shipping department, with strict controls all along the way.

As part of thorough inspections conducted frequently, each product must adhere to every certification rule, documentation audit and lot coding traceability. This process allows us to offer you with certainty that our products comply with all of the organic program and Kosher guidelines.

This process which came from the heart has resulted in one of the world's largest selections of USDA Certified Organic Teas - in over 200 delicious varieties, each one blended with care in our facility. And we're delighted to offer you the best of organic teas!

My Review:
Davidson's Organic Dessert Teas are so good! I absolutely love the flavor combinations. I tried these with and without milk and they were definitely like having a dessert without all the calories. I'm a huge tea connoisseur but I've never tried tea like Davidson's Organic Dessert Teas before. I'm a huge fan. Even the boxes of tea are appealing, they are so pretty. I can see myself tossing a box or two into gift bags for friends birthdays or special occasions. Davidson's Organic Dessert Teas would make a perfect gift for anyone, or a wonderful gift for yourself.

My Review:

I love the quality products that Sunwarrior offers! Despite being the cardio queen that I am I've never owned a blender bottle but it's a purchase any protein lover should make. I absolutely love Sunwarrior's blender bottle because it blends up the protein leaving no powder chunks behind. Sunwarrior's Warrior Blend protein tastes really good and is perfect for adding to your morning smoothies or drinking it on it's own. Sunwarrior's Classic Protein is really good and again perfect for adding to smoothies or drinking on its own. I feel like both the Sunwarrior Classic and Warrior Blend helped me recover from my workouts quickly and kept me full till my next meal. Sunwarriors Liquid Light is awesome for adding minerals into your diet and aiding in hydration. As a runner I love this product because hydration is a must, especially in Arizona. Sunwarrior's Activated Barley is perfect for keeping you full because it contains slow burning carbs. This is wonderful to add to a smoothie in the morning and hit the gym. Sunwarrior's Supergreens are great for adding some greens to your diet and aiding in digestion. I absolutely love these products and highly recommend them.

Hi, my name is Lizzie Brewis.  I founded LT Organics with a vision to stop the madness.  Do you know what I am talking about?  How many countless products have you tried to get smooth - moisturized skin, strong hair that isn't frizzy, nails that don't break every day?

Exotic Moroccan Pure Argan Oil

Why Choose LT Organics (4 OZ.) VIRGIN Pure Argan Oil with Perfected Treatment Pump?

Because when you massage this deliciously natural-scented oil into your face, hair, skin and nails, you’ll experience…

Luxuriously silky, touchable hair

Glowing, naturally radiant, supple skin across your entire face and body

Reinforced, strengthened, long-growing nails

Cleanse and rehydrate (with small application after facial cleansing routine)

Moisturizes and products against environmental factors

Instantly reduces FRIZZY hair, plus ads strength (even prevents it when you apply this miraculous Argania Seed extract 15 minutes before you shampoo!)

PLUS! Aids your body’s natural process for slowing aging, preventing acne, preventing stretch marks, healing scars, and even calming psoriasis and eczema 

Without Additives, Fragrances, Dyes, Preservatives or “Thinning” Oils You’ll Get with Other Brands

What to Expect When You Apply LT Organics Raw Virgin Argan Oil…

TIME: Safely soaks beneath the skin within minutes leaving only silky softness, without the sticky residue you’ll find with other products.

PRESERVATION: The Only Way to preserve RAW Virgin Argan Oil is in an Amber Glass Bottle, because light and plastic negatively react with this fragile gift from nature. Use only the Perfected Treatment Pump (included) to dispense the oil, and do not store this oil in a different container. 

Imported from the Kingdom of Morocco by PLANE Air-Freight (to avoid nutrient depletion, overheating, or rapid cooling that occurs in shipping cargo containers)

SCENT: Our Argan Oil maintains it’s 100% natural earthy-nutty scent. Most customers rave about this scent (as do their partners), and it is a natural indication of freshness. Not to worry if you don’t—it disappears in a few minutes.

ENDLESS USES to Restore and Enhance Your Naturally Youthful Glow

My Review:

I love using LT Organics Exotic Moroccan Pure Argan Oil on my hair, face and body. When I apply  LT Organics Exotic Moroccan Pure Argan Oil to my hair it  instantly becomes less frizzy and looks hydrated and radiant. After using it just one time my hair was soft and healthy looking. This is also a great product for hydrating those cuticles. My cuticles are always so dried out but not when I use LT Organics Exotic Moroccan Pure Argan Oil. My nails and cuticles look healthy and hydrated. when I use this Argan oil on my face my skin glows. I absolutely love this product and highly recommend it!
