I’m loving the clean and simple ingredients of The California Naturals products. It’s vegan, Sulfate-Free, Gluten-Free, Dye-Free, Phthalate-Free, Paraben-Free, Aluminum-Free and made from recyclable materials. The shampoo and conditioner has a pleasant scent. The shampoo lather very well. The Avocado & Coconut Milk made my dry hair feel soft. My hair felt clean after using the shampoo and conditioner. I had no tangles and my hair was feeling silky smooth with using The California Naturals. Check it out, Available at Target stores.

Chickpea Tikka Masala and Madras Lentils are tasty. I enjoyed the bold flavors very much. Chickpea Tikka Masala has carrot and corn with a creamy tomato sauce. It’s a good mix. Madras Lentils is made with lentils, red beans, and spices mixed in a tomato sauce. My favorite is Madras Lentils but both flavors are great. I enjoyed the hearty dishes with Basmati Rice. You can also have it with naan or roti. The rice and chickpeas are easy to make by microwaving them or heat on stove top. It’s ready quickly in just minutes. I like that the products are made with organic ingredients and free from Artificial Ingredients, Vegetarian, Kosher, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO.

Thanks to @bzzagent for sending me this IMUSA pot to try out. I used a 9Qt Blk Stone Caldero from IMUSA to cook Chinese rice for my family. The pot warmed up well (I used medium/low heat). No food stuck to the bottom of the pan. I like the stone exterior look. A benefits of owning this product is the size. It’s wide enough to cook large portions of food at a time. I would use a pot holders for the heat of the handles as it gets warm with time. The pot has a nice color and the tempered glass lid gives it a fancy look. It’s great to show off for a party or get together when you have to cook large portions. I used a wooden spoon for stirring so I do not scratch the pot. It’s easy to clean just hand wash the pot and dry it completely after. I would buy another product from IMUSA. I would also recommend this pot to others. Check it out!

I’m loving Alec’s ice cream chocolate chocolate chip ice cream. I like it’s made with A2 milk which it’s the only milk my son can have and it won’t upset his stomach.

I would definitely buy it again. I recommend it to others.

I got to try Bonne Maman Fruit Spread and I’m loving it. I tried the strawberry spread on my toast and on my peanut butter & jelly sandwich. I liked the rich fruity flavor. The fruit spread taste delicious. I also like that it’s made with clean ingredients and it’s not too sweet. I found Bonne Maman fruit spread at my local Publix. I can’t wait to try the other flavors of Bonne Maman fruit spread.

I just picked up OREO Frozen Dairy Dessert Scoopable Tub & OREO Frozen Dairy Dessert Bars using Walmart Pickup. The Oreo tub was tasty and filling with Oreo bites. The ice cream is creamy. I loved the Oreo bites mixed in it. The Oreo bars is dipped in a delicious coating made from crushed OREO cookie wafer pieces. As for using Walmart pickup, it was easy to use. I just add all the groceries to the cart, pick a time & date + pay the order. Walmart will send a notification when groceries are ready, the day of pickup. I pull up to the Walmart store curbside pick up, pop the trunk of the car, and Done! Check out these Oreo dairy frozen treats available at Walmart stores and using Walmart Pick up.

I was so thrilled to hear that I had to review a2milk. I’m very glad to say I’ve been buying this brand of milk for my son that has milk allergies for several years now. He can finally drink milk without having an allergic reaction. He likes to have cereal with milk or a cup of milk with cookies. He loves the taste and I love that I do not have to worry about breakouts. I like this brand. I would recommend this milk to others. I purchase #a2milk at Publix or in some Walmart stores. I wish every supermarket sold a2 milk. It’s just that good. Thank you @socialnature for sending me this coupon for #FREE to try!
