Airwear Lenses

My husband has been wearing glasses forever.  He often tries out contact lenses, but finds them uncomfortable.  Glasses, however, can take a beating when worn continuously especially when doing the renovation projects of the magnitude we have in our house.  So, he needs comfortable glasses that are durable.

Back in the late fall, we were asked to try out a pair of Airwear lenses.  After a few complications, my husband has declared these lenses super comfortable.  Airwear lenses are 30% lighter and 10 times more impact resistant than standard plastic lenses.  This comes in handy when wrenches are falling when he's working under the car or as he bangs his head on the boards he is cutting for the new porch railing. 

Since it's Earth Day, we can celebrate Airwear lenses because of their green quality.  100% of the product waste from Airwear lenses is recycled reducing their environmental footprint that occurs during production. 

We did have some issues with the company.  It took a very long time to receive our lenses, and when we got the first set of lenses, there was a flaw in the lenses that made it blurry for my husband.  They rectified the situation and my husband is now comfortably wearing his lenses.

Triscuit Home Farming Movement

When I moved into my first home, I was so excited to have a place to start a garden.  This first home was my grandparents' home and right next to the rectangular side porch was a small square garden in which my grandfather yearly grew his tomatoes.  Using the soil that he had so lovingly tended, I created my first garden, tomatoes and a small basil plant. Thus began my love of all things basil.

This is why I am so excited about the Triscuit Home Farming movement.  Triscuit, in collaboration with the non-profit organization Urban Farming, has launched the Triscuit Home Farming Movement.  The purpose of the movement is to encourage home farming and to bring novice home farmers together with seasoned farmers. 

Let's face it, fresh is better and healthier.  There is nothing like warm tomatoes, fresh picked off the vine, or fresh herbs taken right from your own garden.  And in this economy, there's nothing cheaper and easier than growing your own food. 

Triscuit has made it even easier to grow your own garden by placing plantable herb seed cards in four million boxes of Triscuit.  So, it's time to get farming, America.  Be sure to pick up a box of Triscuit and check out their website

Olay Total Effects Body Wash

I am a connoisseur of body wash. Just ask my husband. I rarely come home from the grocery store without some kind of body wash. I am always trying new ones and hoping they will actually do what they say they will. I am one dry skinned girl during the winter and nothing ever seems to help.

Olay Total Effects Body Wash totally does help.

Olay Total Effects is supposed to improve elasticity, relieve dryness, deeply condition skin, brighten dull skin, even skin tone, smooth rough skin and minimize the appearance of dry lines.

After receiving a sample from Olay via MyBlog Spark, I paced myself and used the entire bottle over the course of several weeks. The wash itself is a thick one. In other words, you won't end up using half the bottle after just one use. It lathers nicely and a little really does go a long way. Not only does it smell really nice, but the results when it comes to my skin were pretty amazing. Dry patches completely disappeared and even the scaly parts on my hands were greatly improved. After a month of using it, I don't know if I'm younger looking (I'm fairly critical of my wrinkles), but I can definitely say I'm more moisturized than I've been in a very long time.

After only one use, I can definitely agree with their claim that my skin was softer. It's one body wash that is going to go on my list for repeat usage. It's not simply a soap people. This stuff is serious.

Because I like the results so much, I'm going to give one lucky reader a $10 Walmart gift card, courtesy of Olay and MyBlog Spark, so you can try it for yourself. All you need to do to be entered to win is leave a comment telling your best secret for staying young. Knock my socks off people; now it's your turn. . .

Leave a comment by April 15th for your chance to win.
