Add butter to your grilled foods without the buttery mess with the Biem QX3!

I received this product from Biem from review.


Put an end of the mess you get when you try to butter your food during a BBQ.  When you put a stick of butter on the picnic table, or even a tub of spreadable butter, it always ends up turning into a melted mess from the heat of the day or the sun shining on it.  Once this happens, it is extremely difficult to butter your corn on the cob or your dinner rolls.  This is no longer a problem when you have a Biem QX3 Butter Sprayer.



Just drop a stick of butter in your Biem and you're ready to go!  Biem uses heat and air, not chemical or artificial propellants, to spray the butter.  You can store it in the refrigerator if you want, but it is perfectly fine to leave it sitting on the counter.  It is faster and easier to spray the butter than it is to spread it with a knife.  An added bonus is that you will use less butter, making it less expensive!  Although it uses heat to melt the butter, it doesn't overheat it to do so.  It has an automatic shut off and a patent pending nozzle that is designed to prevent clogging as it sprays your butter.  It's easy to use and easy to clean.

 


The Biem Sprayer is perfect for buttering toast, grilled cheese sandwiches and vegetables.  You can use it as a non stick cooking spray in your frying pans, muffin pans or cake pans.  Make the perfect buttered popcorn without making it soggy or messy.  


The Biem Butter Sprayer is approximately 10 inches high and 2.4 inches wide.  It weighs approximately 1.5 lb. and is powered by a high density rechargeable battery.  You can purchase the Biem Butter Sprayer V2 - Standard (which includes the Biem Butter Sprayer, one Biem rechargeable battery pack and one charger) for $129.00 on the Biem website HERE.

Add some delicious Teriyaki flavor with this sauce from San-J Sauces!

I recieved these products from San-J Sauces for review.

This delicious Teriyaki sauce is gluten free, non-GMO and kosher.  It has a mild sweetness in its rich flavor, and you can taste a hint of ginger and garlic.  Use it as a marinade, in stir frys or in fried rice.  Marinate meats, fish and vegetables in this for 30 minutes and then cook as desired.  It will give your foods the most delicious flavor.  It is made with 100% soybeans and zero wheat.  It gives delicious flavor to meat cooked on the grill, so it's perfect to use for your 4th of July BBQ.  Or take it along with you on your next camping trip or your next day at the beach.  It can also be used when cooking indoors, so it isn't just for summer!  You can purchase it HERE for $6.54 for a 10 oz. bottle.  

The Tamari Black Sesame are oven baked brown rice crackers that are gluten free, certified vegan and non-GMO.  They have a deliciously rich nutty flavor from the black sesame seeds, and the teriyaki glaze which makes them irresistable.  They are baked, not fried, and are great with dips, spreads or even by themselves.  They conveniently come in a stay fresh package, so they won't get stale.  They would be perfect to serve as appetizers with your dips and spreads at your next BBQ, camping trip or day at the beach.  You can purchase them HERE for $5.56 for a 3.7 oz. package.

Enjoy delicious iced coffee on a hot summer day with Grady's Cold Brew Kit

I received this product from Grady's Cold Brew for review.


My husband loves his coffee.  But during the hot summer, he often doesn't want to drink anything hot.  A great solution for that, while still allowing him to have his coffee, is iced coffee.  Unfortunately, it isn't convenient to make iced coffee when you are camping or spending the day at the beach.  But thanks to Grady's Cold Brew Kit, that problem has been solved!





The cold brew kit is a reusable pour and store pouch that has a built in spout for pouring.  You can easily throw it in the cooler and take it along with you on your camping trips and beach days.




The kit includes 12 of these 2 oz. bean bags that contains ground coffee beans, chicory and spices.  You can purchase additional bean bags on the Grady's Cold Brew website.


To make your iced coffee, just drop 4 of the bean bags into the pouch, add your water, seal it up and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight.  In the morning, remove and discard the bean bags and then fill your cup with iced coffee.  Add milk and sugar, or any flavorings that you desire and enjoy!  Once the pouch is empty, rinse it out and make some more!  It's that simple!
Needless to say, mu husband is addicted!  And if you like iced coffee, I think you will be too!  Purchase your own Grady's Cold Brew Kit for $30.00 from their website HERE.

Try IcyBags and Bibkins this year at your 4th of July BBQ!

I received these products from IcyBags and Bibkins for review.


IcyBags are convenient pouches with a freezable gel insert that will keep your lotions, cosmetics, sunscreen, baby products, medications, etc. chilled.  The IcyBag has a thermal insulated lining and is small enough to fit inside a purse, diaper bag or beach bag.  It also has a clip that allows you to clip it to another bag for easy access. 

  

You know how it is, you're at the beach and need to reapply your sunscreen.  So you open the bottle and pour some into your hand, only to be shocked at how warm it is.  If it is in the sun, it can get hot and is very uncomfortable to apply to your skin.  Or maybe you have a medication that needs to stay chilled.  It's inconvenient to store it in the cooler with your foods and drinks.  And what a disaster it is to pick up your favorite lipstick to freshen up your lips, only to discover that it has melted in the sun!  

When you use an IcyBag, you don't have to worry about things like that.  Simply put the gel pack in the freezer and let it freeze.  Then place it inside the IcyBag, along with the items that you want to keep cool.  The IcyBag will keep them cool for hours!

You can purchase IcyBag HERE, in your choice of blue, pink or black for $18.99 each with free shipping.


Do you suffer from SED?  The telltale signs of Sed, or Sloppy Eating Disorder, are spots and stains on the front of your shirt or dress.  

Chronic SED sufferers have tried to hide their condition by avoiding eating in public or by always carrying with them a duplicate, identical shirt or dress to the one they are wearing.  When they inadvertently drop food on their clothes, they quickly sneak off to the bathroom and change their soiled clothing.  They hide the evidence and no one is ever the wiser.  But it can get very expensive having to buy all of your clothing in duplicates, not to mention the inconvenience.  But I have a better solution.

   
This is the Bibkin.  Created by Marc Polish and Associates, a small New Jersey based company, the Bibkin allows you turn any napkin into a bib to protect your clothing.  Bibkins adjust to fit the smallest child or a large aduly.  Whether worn by an adult, or a child, it will function the same.  Just place the bipkin around your neck and attach the two clips on the ends to the corners of a napkin.  This will hold the napkin in place so it can protect your clothing.  

You can purchase Bibkins HERE.  Get 2 Bibkins for $9.95 plus shipping and handling or get the Friends and Family Pack of 6 Bibkins for $19.95 plus shipping and handling.  If you need larger quantities, you can purchase in bulk.  The more you purchase, the lower the price for each.

Thanks to Bibkins, people with SED no longer have to suffer in silence!  

I just want to add that, although this review is written with a focus on humor, Bibkins is a genuine product.  It is great for those of us who are prone to getting food stains on the front of our clothing.

You need these products this summer!

I received these products from BugBand Insect Repellents and Grease Monkey in exchange for an honest review.  These products are available online from amazon, walmart.com and target.com.  They are also available in most major retail stores nationwide such as Walmart, Bass Pro, Cabela's and most other stores where outdoor supplies are sold.



Summer is upon us, and with the warm sunny days we are spending more time outdoors.  Unfortunately, the mosquitoes, flies, gnats and bees have come out as well.  Nothing can spoil your fun as fast as a swarm of mosquitoes or other insects.  They can make camping miserable, they can make a family BBQ intolerable and they can make your family want to just stay inside to avoid them.  But these DEET free products from Bug Band can help save your summer plans while protecting you from the danger of contracting the West Nile Virus, the Zika Virus and other bacteria and parasites that are often carried by these insects.  The spray lotion pictured above will help keep those flying, biting pests away.  Just spray a little on your exposed skin, or even on your clothing, and you're good to go.  Re-apply every 2-4 hours as needed.  These products contain naturally derived Geraniol, a natural substance produced by honeybees, and this is what repels the insects.





It is also available in the form of wipes, which you can get in a canister of 40, or in individual packets that contain 2 towelettes.  Just wipe the towelettes all over your exposed skin to repel the insects.  The suggested retail prices are $12.95 for the canister and $4.95 for the 2 pack towelettes.

If you don't want to use the spray lotion or the towelettes, you can choose these wrist bands.  They are available in several different colors including olive green, blue, yellow, red, pink, black, purple, orange and glow in the dark.  Each band comes in a resealable plastic "pod" to store your band in between uses.  The bands are designed to break away if it gets entangled in something, so there is no danger of anyone getting it caught on something and not being able to get loose.  You can wear these bands on your wrist, belt loops or hat bands.  You can also attach them to pet collars to protect your pets, hang them on your tent or from a baby carriage.  The suggested retail price for the band is $4.95 each or $14.95 for a family pack of 4 bands.


If you are camping or hiking in a wooded area, or an area with high grass, you need to worry about ticks as well as flying insects.  As you know, ticks can carry Lyme Disease, which can cause severe health problems if contracted.  The Bug Band Tick Plus Insect Repellent Spray Lotion will help keep the ticks away.


When you're camping, or just outdoors having fun in the summer, you can often get your hands really dirty.  Maybe it's the greasy gunk that gets on grills, maybe it's grease you picked up changing your kid's bicycle chain, and maybe it's road tar from changing a flat tire on your car.  Things like this usually happen when you are in the middle of nowhere with no soap and water handy to wash it away.  Grease Monkey Wipes are easy to take along with you because they come in both a canister and in individual packets.  And they will clean away nearly anything.  They are designed to clean grease, grime, oil, road tar, adhesives and even permanent marker.  It won't dry out your hands either.  They even smell good with their citrus formula.  They are perfect to take along for any activity that might get your hands dirty:  bikes, motorcycles, boats, ATVs, tractors and mowers, cars and trucks.  The suggested retail price is $5.49 for a canister of 25 wipes, $7.59 for a box of 12 individual wipes and $11.99 for a box of 24 individual wipes.

BeatBox Beverages make a perfect drink for a day at the beach!

I received these beverages from BeatBox Beverages to review.



When you take your kids for a family day at the beach, you might pack some juice boxes for them to drink when they get thirsty.  These Beatbox beverages are the adult version of juice boxes.  They are not for children, they do have alcohol in them.  They come in brightly colored containers and have 11.1% alcohol by volume.  They have only 8 grams of sugar per serving and 130 calories per 5 fluid ounce.



Referred to as "The World's Tastiest Portable Party Punch", it is wine based and comes in 4 delicious flavors:  Blue Razzleberry, Pink Lemonade, Fruit Punch and Fresh Watermelon.  They are all equally delicious and can be served cold or frozen into a slush.  The single serve tetra paks that they come in are perfect to take along with you when you're on the go.  You can reseal them after they are opened and they are completely recyclable.  Pick some up and try it today!

The Kestrel Disc Golf Set is Awesome!

The nice people at Kestrel Outdoors gave me this awesome Disc Golf Set to review.  They have also been kind enough to provide a second set for a giveaway, so one of our lucky readers will win.  Will it be you?  Watch for the giveaway and when it goes live, get your entries in!  Now on with my review!



Disc Golf is a really fun game for the whole family.  It will get you outdoors  and active instead of sitting behind a computer screen.  It would be a wonderful activity for a Birthday party, for a tween, teen or any age, actually. 



To play disc golf, you throw a flying disc at a target basket using rules similar to golf.  There are usually 9 or 18 of these targets (or holes) spread out over the course.  To complete the hole, throw your disc at the target from the tee area, then throw again from the landing spot, and so on until you land your disc int the target basket.  The number of throws it takes you to land your disc are counted, and you want to complete the hole (and the entire course) in as few throws as possible.  There are disc golf courses in nearly every American City, as well as in many countries worldwide.



The Kestrel Pro Set Bundle includes 3 discs (distance driver, mid-range and putter) and a disc golf bag (available in several different colors).  It is PDGA approved.  They are made with flexible plastic to give you bend and distance.  172 grams with perfect molds for distance, accuracy and flexibility.  They fly further and straighter than ever before.  It is very reasonably priced with a suggested retail price of $42.99.  You can purchase it from their site, or from Amazon.

Show Your Patriotism With A Beautiful Flag Shirt

With the 4th of July coming up, many people are searching for something that is red, white and blue to wear to their Independence Day celebrations.   There is an extensive variety of 4th of July shirts available, but my own personal favorite is the flag shirt.  

Men, women and children all love to show their patriotism.  And nothing is more patriotic than the American Flag.  Whether the shirt has a flag alone, or paired with another American symbol (like an eagle or the Statue of Liberty), you can't go wrong!

I personally have several flag shirts, but I still want more.  There are just so many to choose from!  I especially like the ones that have a flag paired with an eagle.  

I love seeing all of the various patriotic shirts that people choose to wear on the 4th.  All of that American Pride is a sight to behold.  And nothing is cuter than a small child dressed up in red, white and blue!
