Airborne Review

Disclosure - free sample provided.

I want to introduce you to a line of Vitamin C enriched products.  Airborne offers a selection of products that contain Vitamin C.  They make easy to take products.  They offer chewables, gummies, lozenges and more.  I personally like that they offer different flavors.  Not everyone likes the same flavor!  They offer products for kids and adults.  Have you tried any of them?

My kids were excited to see that there was a product for them in the package that I received from Airborne.  They offer Kids Gummies.  My kids usually have an easier time taking a gummy supplement.  I even had to give these a try.  I personally thought they tasted good and my kids liked them too.  These have Vitamin C, but also include 9 other Vitamins, minerals and herbs.  They are available in assorted fruit flavors.

Airborne Chewable Tablets are a product that I found easy to take.  These had a nice berry flavor.  They didn't taste gross either.  They can be taken without water too.  They also contain 13 Vitamins, minerals and herbs.  Have you tried these?

I also received a product that I am very familiar with.  Airborne offers an Effervescent Tablet.  I received the zesty orange flavor.  These tablets were easy to use.  You add one to water, let it fizz up, and then drink.  I personally liked the flavor of the orange.  These can be used at home, work, or when traveling.  The Effervescent Tablets also contain 13 Vitamins, Minerals, and Herbs.  I thought that the easy to grab container was perfect to keep in my purse for when I'm on the go.

These are just some of the varieties and flavors that Airborne has to offer.  You can visit their website to learn more about all of the products that they offer.  You can also connect with them on Facebook and Twitter.

My Hikes - Pant Cuff Fasteners Review

Disclosure - free sample provided.

What do you do when your child is in between sizes for clothing?  This can be a challenge.  We are going through this right now.  I have an 8 year old that has outgrown size 8, but size 10 is too long.  Just rolling the bottom of pants up does not always work.  They unroll and then what happens is they end up walking on the bottom of their pants and destroying them.  I want to introduce you to My Hikes.  These are a great way to fasten pant cuffs!

How do My Hikes work?  They are a fastener that can be used if you roll up the bottom of your pants.  They are easy to put on and they keep pants from coming unrolled.  I love it!  They stay in place throughout the day.  This allows you to get longer wear out of your child's clothing!  My Hikes are a temporary fastener and can be moved from one pair of pants to another.  My Hikes are great for kids, but adults too.  I am 5 feet tall and could definitely use these.  I have struggled my entire life to find cute pants that fit in the length.  

My Hikes are available in styles for both boys and girls.  I received the really cute flower variety, but they also offer a butterfly, train, soccerball and more.  You can save 40% on your purchase of My Hikes by using the code MyHikes40off at the checkout.  This will make them only $11.99.  My Hikes are also available on Amazon and from Sears.  This is a reasonable price considering it will save you money on clothing!  

You can also connect with My Hikes on Facebook too!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Skeeter Snacks began because they wanted to change the way nut free products were made.  They wanted to offer a product that was reasonably priced too.  Skeeter Snacks are clearly labeled too.  I think that is very important.  They are completely committed to nut free snacking.  Pretty neat!  Skeeter Snacks are great for children that have nut allergies, but children that don't have them will love them too.

Cooked Perfect Meatballs Review

Disclosure - free sample provided.

Does your family love meatballs?  We do!  We serve them with pasta and sauce.  We also love meatball sandwiches.  I will say that homemade meatballs can be time consuming.  Many of the varieties from the frozen section are not to our liking.  I want to introduce you to a different kind of frozen meatball.  Cooked Perfect Meatballs are homemade meatballs that are available in the freezer section of your grocery store.

Cooked Perfect offers a variety of different meatballs too.  The meatballs have a really good flavor because they are flame grilled.  They offer Italian Style, Angus Beef, Homestyle, Turkey and more.  I love that these can be easily warmed up and eaten for a quick snack or meal.  They can also be cooked in sauces for a healthy and hearty meal.  These are perfect for appetizers too.  You can put a bag of meatballs in the crockpot with sauce and you are done.

We tried the Cooked Perfect Meatballs in marinara sauce.  I put the sauce in my crockpot and then added the meatballs.  This was a quick and easy meal.  The Italian Style meatballs had a great flavor that went well with the marinara sauce.  I really liked that the texture of the meatball was tender and not rubbery.  These do not taste like they come from the freezer section.  These are a quick way to make spaghetti and meatballs or even a tasty meatball sandwich.  How would you serve them?

You can learn more about Cooked Perfect products by visiting their website.  You can also connect with them on Facebook.
