Review & Giveaway: Tropical Traditions Organic Coconut Flour



As you all know by now, I just love all of the products over at Tropical Traditions! This time our family got to try the Organic Coconut Flour! There are many health benefits of using coconut flour. For those who are allergic to wheat or gluten, coconut flour is a great alternative! Since the coconut flour contains natural sugar, you won't need as much sugar for baked goods to taste sweet!

There are tons of free recipes on the Tropical Traditions website using Organic Coconut Flour!



Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour is fiber from the coconut meat after most of the oil has been extracted to make Virgin Coconut Oil. It is certified organic, unsweetened, and has not been treated with sulfites. Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour is high in dietary fiber and protein, and is gluten-free. It has more fiber than gluten-based grains. Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour can be added to standard wheat-based recipes to add extra fiber, by substituting 10-30% of the grain-based flour with our coconut flour. Some recipes, such as muffins and quick breads, can be accomplished with 100% Tropical Traditions organic coconut flour and therefore be 100% gluten-free! (See some free recipes below.) Since organic coconut flour contains natural sugar from the coconut meat, baked goods need less sugar added. The organic coconut flour has a mildly sweet coconut taste!

Review: Snuggle Exhilarations: White Lilac & Spring Flowers

We love Snuggle products in our house! Snuggle helps me to have great smelling, soft laundry! I recently received a bottle of Snuggle Exhilarations: White Lilac & Spring Flowers to review. Snuggle Exhilarations: White Lilac & Spring Flowers is Snuggle's newest product & it definitely measures up with other Snuggle products we know & love.

I normally use Snuggle dryer sheets, but Snuggle Exhilarations: White Lilac & Spring Flowers smells so good I've made the switch to liquid! My husband has noticed how great our laundry smells now!

Snuggle has other scents in their Snuggle Exhilarations product line. I'd definitely love to try the White Lavendar. With all of the time I spend in the laundry room, it's nice to have the fresh scent of Snuggle Exhilarations!

This game is VERY fun! Over 25 hit country songs are included in this game. Artists include: Blake Shelton, Trace Adkins, Miley Cyrus, Carrie Underwood, Zac Brown Band, and many more!

Review: Cars 2 on DVD/BluRay Combo Pack

Cars 2 was just released on BluRay and DVD! My boys were super excited when this showed up on our doorstep to review! We of course saw it in theater, and they've impatiently been waiting for it to arrive on DVD so they can watch it whenever they want (& they've definitely been taking advantage of that!)

This DVD/Blu-ray combo also include two adorable shorts - Cars Toon "Air Mater" and Toy Story Toons "Hawaiian Vacation". This is a great family movie and a definite must have for your Disney/Pixar Cars fan!


From the creators of Cars comes a new, laugh-out-loud, heart-warming adventure geared for the entire family. Star racecar Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) and the incomparable tow truck Mater (Larry the Cable Guy) take their friendship on the road from Radiator Springs to exciting new places when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world's fastest car. But the road to the championship is filled with plenty of potholes, detours and hilarious surprises when Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage! It's turbo-charged action and thrills and "even better than before," raves Peter Travers of Rolling Stone.

Review & Giveaway: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Space Adventure DVD



Disney has recently released Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Space Adventure! My kiddos love this show and I love the preschool skills they learn while watching. This DVD would make a great gift for any preschooler on your shopping list!

It’s Adventure Day and Professor Von Drake is sending Mickey and pals into the far reaches of outer space. The team blasts off in their Clubhouse Rocket in search of Treasure Stars that will point the way to the Out-of-this-World Treasure, their ultimate goal. The interplanetary trip takes preschool viewers first to the Moon, Mars and the Rings of Saturn. Along the way, the gang gets help from friendly space aliens Moon Men Chip and Dale, Martian Mickey and Pluto from Pluto but they also encounter sneaky Space Pirate Pete, who wants the Treasure all for himself. Eventually the Clubhouse Rocket’s crew and Space Pirate Pete manage to become friends, and they all follow the trail of the Treasure Stars to the mysterious Planet Mickey where they discover the location of the Out-of-this-World Treasure. It turns out to be a futuristic, space age version of the Clubhouse -- the perfect meeting place for all pals across the universe!

Review: The Littlest Angel DVD


Recently released to DVD from Anchor Bay Entertainment is The Littlest Angel. This movie is based on the 15th best selling children's book of all time! We received a copy of this DVD to review and we just loved it. All the kids all enjoyed it and so did I!

The Littlest Angel is a heartwarming story of a young boy who arrives in heaven before his time. He must return to Earth in order to earn his wings. I love the message of this movie. This would make a wonderful gift for any little ones on your list this holiday season!

Click on the activities below to print!


Some Angels soar the skies, and some fall a little short. Anchor Bay Entertainment presents the DVD release of the new animated feature film, The Littlest Angel, heading to retail on Tuesday, November 15th. A colorful adaptation of the fifteenth best-selling children’s book of all time, The Littlest Angel takes us on a rousing adventure with a young, and sometimes mischievous, Angel, who must return to earth and earn his wings, a task that doesn’t prove to be easy. Experience the love, laughter and magic of one of the most popular children’s stories of all time. From the classic book by Charles Tazewell, comes this lively CGI animated version filled with both humor and heart.

The Littlest Angel tells the story of a young boy who arrives in heaven before his time. Home-sick and lonely, he will travel back to earth, with his friendly pup Halo, to retrieve a most selfless and precious gift for The Baby Jesus. First released in book form in 1946, The Littlest Angel became popular for its ornate words and phrases paired with beautifully muted oil paintings. Tazewell’s book was adapted into a TV musical in 1969 starring Johnny Whitaker, and theatrical versions continue to be done by schools and church groups today. The author would follow-up with another childhood favorite, "The Littlest Snowman," that would be read annually on the “Captain Kangaroo” show.

“This is a story that has made so many people happy over the years,” says Lance Thompson, one of the producers of the film. “We’ve added some new elements to this production, but this is still The Littlest Angel everyone remembers from their childhood, and one that parents will enjoy introducing to their kids. I think Tazewell would enjoy knowing his work lives on.”

It’s a modern twist on the timeless tale of an Angel that discovers the greatest gifts in life are faith, friendship and doing the right thing. This new version of The Littlest Angel features wonderful animation and great vocal talent, including Ron Perlman (“Beauty and The Beast,” Tangled), and is sure to become a holiday favorite, much like the book it’s based on. The Littlest Angel is a motion picture that will put a smile on everyone’s face, and what better gift is there than that.

You can purchase The Littlest Angel on Amazon for only $12.49!
