The Sapadilla Soap Co. is another company I discovered through Expo West (which I am looking forward to next month, by the way!) This Vancouver-based company is dedicated to making eco-friendly cleaners for a naturally clean home.

I had the opportunity to try the Grapefruit + Bergamot Dish Soap, Lavender + Lime Countertop Cleanser and Rosemary + Mint Hand Soap. Don’t those scent combinations sound lovely? The scents come from 100% pure essential oil blends, with no artificial ingredients. In addition all of the Sapadilla products are plant-based and biodegradable, making them a smart choice to use in your home.

It seems like I have been washing my hands more now than ever, so the Sapadilla Hand Soap came just at the right time. I like how this soap cleanses, but does not dry out my hands. It has a refreshing scent that makes hand-washing a joy.

The Sapadilla Dish Soap is also a wonderful product that makes cleaning kind of fun! I prefer to hand wash most of my dishes, so it is important that the soap I use is not drying. I really like citrus scents, so the Graperfruit + Bergamot scent is perfect for me.

Finally, the Sapadilla Countertop Cleanser has effective cleaning-power, without the chemicals. It cuts through grimy messes while delivering an uplifting scent. Isn’t that what we all need while going through our cleaning routines?

It seems like I am constantly in search of new organizing products, especially for the kitchen.

This 11-piece container set includes:

• 1x 3 cup

Why Choose Natural Deodorant?

If you have been contemplating switching to a deodorant that is free of aluminum and parabens, now is the time! In our quest to live toxin-free, it is important to take a close look at the products that we apply directly to our bodies, including deodorant.

WildRoot natural deodorant is a new product that only uses simple ingredients and is aluminum and paraben-free. This is important because sweat is a way for our body to expel toxins from our body. Aluminum, which is often found in antiperspirant, prevents the sweat glands from expelling these toxins.

No Chemical Fragrances

WildRoot deodorant does not contain chemical fragrances. Instead, the scents come from safe, pure essential oils. Check out their selection of formulations and scents:

Performance Line:

• Wildflower (Lavender and Ylang Ylang)
• Tall Pine (Cedarwood and Pine)
• Citrus Leaf (Lime and Sage)

Sensitive Line (no baking soda):

• Wildflower (Lavender and Ylang Ylang)
• Meadow (Lemongrass and Mandarin)
• Unscented

I tried the Citrus Leaf and Meadow scents. My favorite was Meadow because the scent was so light and fresh. I do not have a baking soda sensitivity, but it is nice that there are baking soda-free options for those that do. I have used other natural deodorants in this past, and I was impressed with the consistency and texture of the WildRoot deodorant. It went on nice and smooth (not grainy like some other brands I have tried).

An Easy Resolution For 2020!

Making the switch to a natural deodorant like WildRoot is a simple step to take for living a healthier life. If you have been using antiperspirants with aluminum, you will probably experience a “detox” period while your body makes the adjustment. However, if you stick with it, you will see that your sweat glands will regulate back to “normal”. Allowing your body to expel toxins naturally is worth it!

Giveaway Time!

There are actually two giveaways that you can enter to win. First, sign up here by January 11 to receive a coupon code for 30% off your entire order during WildRoot’s initial official launch from January 13th-January 17th. You will also be entered to win free WildRoot deodorant for a year!

During our recent travels, I have noticed that a growing number of restaurants are getting rid of plastic straws. We have all heard how those single-use straws are bad for the environment, so not using them is a step in the right direction. However, sometimes a straw comes in really handy. Enter the Zoku Pocket Straw!

The Zoku Pocket Straw is a reusable stainless steel straw that includes:

• 1 telescoping straw
• 1 carrying case
• 1 cleaning brush

I really like the simple design of this straw. It has a lightweight, “telescope” design which makes it compact and easy to carry on the go. I also appreciate how everything fits in the small carrying case, which features a loop hole for a key ring. The cleaning brush makes it easy to clean, and it is dishwasher-safe. It is also reassuring to know that this straw is BPA and phthalate free.

The Zoku Pocket Straw is available on the Zoku website, Amazon and Target.

Do you prefer your coffee hot or cold? I’m actually a fan of both, depending on what mood I am in. Within the past couple of years, I have been drinking more cold brew coffee at home. I enjoy the taste because it is smoother and less acidic than regular hot coffee.

The process to make cold brew coffee is fairly simple; all you have to do is add water to ground coffee, let it steep for about 12-18 hours and then strain the coffee grounds. However, my method was kind of messy, since I would use a large plastic container, a metal strainer, a coffee filter and a pitcher. There would often be spills or extra grounds that would sneak in to my coffee. Whether you have never tried making cold brew coffee at home, or you make it all of the time, the Zulay Kitchen Cold Brew Coffee Maker streamlines the process. It makes cold brew coffee with minimal effort and mess!

I really like the quality of this cold brew coffee maker. It is made of thick and sturdy glass and stainless steel. The silicone seal at the top ensures freshness, and the silicone bottom provides a sturdy base.

It also features a beautiful, classic and neutral design which I appreciate. Isn’t it pretty?

To make cold brew coffee, all you have to do is fill the stainless steel filter with coffee grounds about 2/3 full. Add water to the 32 oz. line and let it sit in the refrigerator for 12-18 hours. Remove the filter and the cold brew coffee is ready to go in the carafe. It can then be stored in the refrigerator for later use if there is extra. So easy!

The cold brew coffee is pretty concentrated, so I like to add milk. You can also add non-dairy milk such as almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk, to taste.

The Zulay Kitchen Cold Brew Coffee Maker can also be used to make hot coffee and hot or cold tea. Check out the rave reviews on Amazon!
