National Ice Cream Month

Did you know that July was National Ice Cream Month?
Nope neither did I, but Tupperware did.

They have put together a great sale along with some interesting ideas on how to have a great celebration.  You can check these out on my Tupperware site, and so much more.

I really really like my Quick Chef Pro for all kinds of things ... including ice cream.  Our ice cream scoop is the BEST, even hubby asked if we could replace the one at our Florida condo for our tenants with the Tupperware one ... because he wanted them to have the best!

Now these ice cream sandwich makers are the bomb!
I couldn't wait to make a bunch when I got my sample.  I actually have a few in the freezer right now just waiting for us to devour.  

Here is a quick recipe to make using those products in the flyer.  

Keep in touch for even more to come.
Remember there is always something going on at Tupperware and you can check them out on my Tupperware site at any time - even in your pjs if that's how you like to brows or shop!

Check it out ... I even set up a July party for you to place your orders .. Made it as easy as I could because I loves ya!
And don't forget to check out the mid-July specials that start today too.

Walk with Purpose

I saw this one and thought this needs to be part of what we teach our daughters from the very beginning, not just when they are older.

But then I thought all our children need to be taught this.  Because our future leaders need to recognize that a woman who succeeds is not to be feared but embraced.

Too many times, woman who succeed, or are in a position of "power", are still thought of a "pushy" or "sleeping her way to the top" or are the ever popular "b" word.  Sometimes that stops them from trying to do better, to be better, to succeed.

Ok Ladies, its time to start walking with purpose.  EVERY day.

Let's make it our "mission" to walk in PURPOSE so that people WANT to be with us, to BRING things to us so that they can also do better, be better, to succeed.

Turmerex Turmeric 95% Extract #vitavana

I received a bottle of Turmerex Turmetic 95% Extract to facilitate my review.  I received no further compensation for my honest review.

I have heard that Turmeric is a wonderful thing for your health, and  I have been looking for quite awhile for different ways to get more of the healthy benefits of Turmeric into my daily plan.  Unfortunately I just couldn't find a way to incorporate it into my cooking on a regular basis.  You see curry is not a big hit in this house, so that was out, and how many times can you have rice flavored with Turmeric?  

Enter Turmerex Turmetic 95% Extract.  What I thought was great about this product is that I got all the benefits of Turmeric in my daily diet without a lot of fuss or muss.  No hearing about having the same thing for dinner or not liking what I made because its "yellow".  

I can have the benefits in a way that was suggested without any aftertaste.  The little pill (capsule) is perfect for me.  And of course I like the orangy yellow color.  Just don't be leaving it sit outside the bottle - the cotton in the bottle was "stained" yellow where it had touched the capsule for an extended period of time.

Each Turmerex capsule contains 712.5mg of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, that has been studied for its ability to support the body's ability to fight many health related issues.  It also contains 5 mg of BioPerine, an extract from black pepper, which enhances the absorption of the curcumin.  It containes NO added artificial ingredients or flavors - another added benefit.

The bottle holds a 2 month supply which is great.  You have an adequate supply in one purchase to know that it is working for you without having to make 2 or 3 purchases, another benefit.  

I haven't used this product for very long, so I still have a little more than half the bottle yet to use, but I will most definitely be finishing the bottle.  And if things continue, I will be purchasing another bottle. Yes I am finding that it is working for me.   I came down with a "summer cold" or something similar to that description that started right before I started taking Turmerex.  I thought that I should wait until I kicked this but then I thought no this would be a great test.  Does it help support your immune system?  I think it does.  I was done with the cold or whatever it was in less than 5 days after starting! 

Now I'm not saying that this was the sole reason  this cold or whatever was gone in such a short period of time, but I really didn't take anything else except for a cold tablet the first night.   So I am continuing to take my daily capsule to see if come winter I won't be worried about a low immune system.  And of course we could all use support for our joints and cognitive function.

Tacos al Pastor

This one looks interesting. 
We don't do a lot of Tacos here, hubby is more of a meat and potato kind of guy.  

He has gotten a bit better, trying "different" things but I'm not sure he's ready for tacos. This may be a Jenn and I meal when he has a dinner meeting.

Although this is for the Stack Cooker (which I love) I bet you could make this in the Pressure Cooker too.  Either way I'm pretty sure it will taste spectacular!

Don't have a Tupperware Stack Cooker or a Pressure Cooker?
Check them out on my Tupperware Site.
Yes, they are a different kind of Tupperware from those "burp" bowls.  Yes they are a little expensive, but they are worth their weight in gold.  And if you purchase them on my site, I will send you a file I have with recipes for whichever you get.  You just need to leave your email address.

The Tea Love Co Slender Blend Tea

I received a package of the Tea Love Co's Slender Blend Tea to assist in my review, I received no other compensation.  These are my thoughts on this product.  I hope it will be of use to you in your search for new products.

I have heard on more than one occasion that Green Tea has some pretty strong properties that assist in weight loss.  I think every plan I have ever read (or used) before have proclaimed that Green Tea is THE best thing to drink - right behind water!  This is also proclaimed in the company's description of their product.

The company notes that the tea's assistance in weight loss comes from the synergy of 3 of its main ingredients: natural caffeine to stimulate the metabolism, L-theanine which neutralizes the harmful side effects of caffeine and acts as an appetite suppressant, and EGCG which causes you to burn fat faster and more efficiently. They say that these ingredients are naturally occurring in our teas and not synthetically added.

One of the things that I really liked about this tea pack is that it gives a good supply of loose tea, that had a nice aroma when the package was opened.  It had one of those "zip/snap" closure so that it could stay closed and fresh once it was opened - sometimes tea packers seem to forget that and you either have to find something to put your loose tea in or have one heck of a large tea party.

If you have had Green Tea before, and I'm sure you have, you know that it has a much "lighter" taste than the usual Black Tea as well as being a much lighter color when it has been brewed.

One of the things that I was a bit discouraged by was the lack of "directions".   Yes the package notes that the serving was 1 tsp. but it neglected to mention how hot the water should be, how long it should be brewed.  Or even how many "cups" you should drink a day. So it was a learning process for me.  I know that different kinds of teas require different temperatures of water to brew correctly as well as how long.

I used a brew basket that I had (we really like loose teas) and added water that was just below boiling (or let it cool a little if it started to boil) and let it sit to brew for 5 minutes.

I can't say that it has made a difference with the weight loss or not. I'm not sure if it is because of the heat and humidity here in NJ or if I'm not drinking enough, but I do like the light flavor of the tea and will continue to it drink daily. Who knows, I could be really surprised when the weather changes here in the East and need to replace a few things in my closet.
