Meals are just better with Cattleboyz



Cattleboyz sauces and seasonings are all you need to get barbeque season started!

Or, if you are like my family, barbeque season is year round.  It's true.  There is nothing better than the taste of barbequed foods, maybe even more so in the winter.

My hubby is a barbeque enthusiast.  He finds firing up his grill to be a source of enjoyment and relaxation.  He was beyond thrilled to see a package from Cattleboyz arrive at our door.

Cattleboyz originated in Alberta, Canada and has now grown to distribute all across North America.

To get us started on the road to great taste sensation, we received a starter kit full of amazing flavours.


 Original BBQ Sauce
  • full of flavour & versatile
  • use as a glaze, marinade, dip, or condiment
Sweet Chili Sauce
  • sweet & spicy
  • also use for glaze, dip or condiment 



Seasonings 
  • Gourmet Seasoning/Smokey Southwest Seasoning Rub/Big Country Garlic/Smokin' and Grillin' Rub
  • seasonings are gluten free & will liven up all meats, vegetables and seafoods

Everything we received from Cattleboyz is fantastic!  The sauces are fresh and have a non-commercial taste.  They are more like homemade sauces, then something you would purchase in the store.  The seasonings are also very good.  I love that they aren't just powders, but rather shake out substantially.

My hubby has often taken the time to go buy individual spices to make up his own rubs.  Receiving, Cattleboyz has given him the liberty to no longer spend time getting his rubs assembled.  He thinks that Cattleboyz are that good.  (and that is saying a lot)



We celebrated on Family Day with a little barbeque.  My hubby fired up ad grill and put on some homemade burgers, made with Cattleboyz sauce & seasonings!


We highly recommend taking a look at Cattleboyz and find out how they came make your meals go from good to better.  You will not be disappointed.

Beat dry winter skin with George's {#giveaway}

Living with dry, itchy skin isn't much fun.

Living with year-round dry, itchy skin is even worse.

Over the years, I've been willing to try just about anything to relieve the itch.  Recently, George's Cream entered my life.  George's Cream is dry skin relief.



George's Cream doesn't have any fancy tag lines or gimmicks - it simply does what it is supposed to do...Work!

George's Cream is Canadian made and formulated by Canadian pharmacists and business partners, and is available right across our country.  George's provides relief from many annoying common conditions.

  • winter itch
  • dry hands/cracked cuticles
  • windburn
  • eczema
  • cradle cap
 I can't say that I really have any specific areas of dryness.  I feel it all over.  In the warmer months, it will subside a bit, but for the most part I find myself using a moisturizing lotion the whole year through.  I'm not a fan of greasy or perfumed moisturizers, and I want a lotion which is hypoallergenic.  Over time, I've come to learn that not all moisturizers are created equal, nor do they do what they claim to do.

George's Cream is recommended by dermatologists, physicians, and pharmacists alike.  George's is fragrance free & paraben free, making it perfect for even the most sensitive and delicate of skin.


With thanks to George's Cream, I can say that I feel dry skin relief.  I am so excited to have a found a product which was produced out of love and need, and not by some large corporation who is just pumping out creams in search of profits.  The maker of George's Cream is none other than George himself.  George saw a need for a non-prescription cream that would aid people and combat the effects of winter dryness, (or all year-round if the case may be).  George knew that moisturizing creams didn't have to contain all kinds of preservatives or chemicals.

I am your newest fan, George's Cream! In only a couple of weeks, I've found my skin to look and feel better.  I love that you are fragrance free and non-greasy.  You make my skin feel soft and smooth.  I am so happy to have found a cream which works.


Now is your chance to be a George's believer as well!  One lucky (Canadian) reader will win a gift bag of George's Cream!

FunBites make lunch time easy {#giveaway}

Lunch with young children can often become a struggle and a battle of the minds.

Being a mom of three, I often found myself in a lunch time rut. It's a feeling of defeat to see the lunches you pack your children return at the end of the school day, untouched.

Receiving FunBites has not only been a lunch time rescue, it has also saved me money.  Lunch isn't just going into the garbage anymore!




If you have children in your home, FunBites is a must have in the kitchen!

FunBites is a kitchen tool to use for cutting food into fun shapes.  Shapes which kids love and are more likely to eat.    FunBites has a curved blade that is no match for food.  It can quickly, easily and cleanly cut through all kind of lunch favourites without any need to touch the food.

FunBites is available in two shapes - Cube it & Luv it.  

In my kitchen my kids love sandwiches, cheese and lots fruit.  FunBites quickly became the kids choice for preparing their meals.  Using FunBites doesn't take any extra time or effort, and FunBites get results.  My kids eat their lunches with success and I feel much better when cleaning out the lunch bags at the end of the day.

FunBites are a hit with not just my own children, but other students in the classroom.  Other kids like to check out what my children have in their lunch, with interest.  It isn't that I have anything exotic in their lunch, it is just made interesting with FunBites.



FunBites are made in North America and are dishwasher safe.  FunBites are very sturdy and withstand daily use without an issue.  I've tried using cookie cutters in the past and they do a really lousy job of cutting shapes out of food.  Get the job done right the first time with FunBites.

Purchase FunBites individually or buy both at a bundle price.
