All in all I think it's a great affordable option. I got to try free, an array of Comforts for Baby products. I tried the lavander baby wash and lotion and have nothing but good things to say about it. Lavander helps to calm and relax so thats a plus. The lotion is thinner and silker which is something I like. If your baby has very dry skin you may prefer something a little thicker in consistancy.
I wanted to try the training diapers but they were out at my Ralph's. I ended up trying the size 4 Comforts for Baby instead. We really only use diapers at night. They diapers themselves are very thin and have a cute bee design. The elastic around the legs is soft and stretchy and seems sufficiant to hold in any messy accidents.
The fit was nice and trim on my daughter. After sleeping with it on overnight, the diaper did not leak. She was however wetter than she would normaly be when I took the diaper off. Huggies and pamers all contain an absorbant gel powder than really wicks away the moisture away from baby. Even though this could pose a problem for one who's baby in in this diaper all day, I found it to be a helpful quality in potty training because the other diapers are so good that she does'nt "feel" wet. With these, she has been waking up and having to go to the bathroom. The wipes that Comforts for Baby makes a pretty great. The box itself does'nt hurt my fingers as some do. The wipes are soft and stretchy. They could have made them a little thicker but other than that,they are fine. I like them for taking off makeup. The price is right and the products they make are pretty good. I would say be aware that your baby may need to be changed more often though because of the thiness and lack of wicking ability. #gotitfree

Kashi Hummus Crisps
I have four kids and loving being a Bzz agent because I get to try great products that I may not otherwise have tried. I get to discover new snacks that my kids will eat in their lunch boxes or for a healthy after school snack. MY kids enjoyed these and I liked that they were not filled with HFC or MSG. I was disappointed that they have not gone onboard and made their product Non-GMO and 100% organic. I tried them myself and was disappointed in the lack of flavor. They had a great texture and were very light and crunchy. I had a few tastes of what the seasoning tasted like at the bottom of the bag and it was great. If only it had actualy stayed on the crisp. All in all I think its a great snack option. I do wish the size was a little larger since our family is so big, but I have this problem with pop chips and food should taste good brand as well...they could all use more in the bags. It pairs great with hummus but I found dipping it in salsa took away from the crunch and made it almost soggyish. I would stick to cheese, onion dips, and hummos dips.

Food Should Taste Good
It's a honor to be a bzz agent. I got a great product to try free! Having 4 snack monsters and lots of neighborhood kids in the house this summer, I was excited for the
Food Should Taste Good Campaign!! It came with lots of flavors to choose from and we being hot cheetoe addicts, ripped open a bag of jalapeno right away. The first thing I noticed was how light and crunchy they were. They have a lightly sea salted crunch with a perfect touch of spice to give it a nice kick! The kids gobbled them all up. They come in 15 varieties of tortill chip flavors including kimchi, sweet potato, and a kettle corn flavor! They use whole ingredients and are certified gluten free and Kosher. They also carry Kettle cooked chips and crackers. A huge plus for us as a family of 6 is that they carry a easy to pack and go snack size for lunch boxes or as a quick snack paired with a healthy dip. There are tons of great recipes for fantastic dip ideas! http://www.foodshouldtastegood.com/our-products/recipes/dip-recipes. I can't wait to bring these to the next party, it's always nice to bring something you know everyone will love.
| Will you look at that!! I can actualy read and comprehend every single ingredient and it isn't 10 miles long!! |
| Light, crunchy, and bursting with flavor! |
| This one is the Jalepeno. It has just the right amount of heat. |
| Snack size option for lunch boxes. |

Private Selection's Maple syrup, it's not just for breakfast!
As a bzz agent, I was able to try private selection's wide array of products. I love finding new ways to use their products in new ways. I knew as I was serving my kids the PS brand belgiam waffles and 1005 pure maple syrup, that I was going to do something with it and our bbq. My husband got excited and of course already had a recipe in mind. And then comes the birth of the best maple glazed bbq ribs that we have ever make and our new twist on a asian chicken using the PS brand marmalade! The first recipe featured here are the maple glazed ribs. We slow cooked these bad boys for 4 hours using just the private selections Texas BBQ rub. They then got a bath in a mixture using the rub and maple syrup and were grilled to prefection. They fell apart and were amazing with the sweet and tangy flavors that blended with that great grill flavor! Just amazing! bzz agent fortytoes #gotitfree!
The next recipe we used Private selections marmalade and mixed it with equal parts honey, soy sauce and added 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, and a dash or two of seasame oil. Brown all your chicken first and then just pour this mixture over the top and let it simmer and reduce until the chicken is done

Private selection has me getting creative!
Once you try some of the Private Selection products, your creative juices get stirring. As a bzz agent I get to try new products and we are particularly excited about this campaign! We started our food adventure by choosing a meat. I had no idea PS brand make so many prducts! We opted for the ground lamb as I was feeling inspired to try some thing different. Boy was I in for a surprise! I used my favorite burger press from Avon and got to work. Boy oh boy were we surprised when we sunk our teeth into these! Incredibly juicy and full flavored. We served them on top of a crispy bed of spring lettuce, organic colby jack cheese. We decided not to pile on the toppings on this one so that the truely wonderful flavors of the lamb shine through. I'll definately make this one again. I may try doing a mediteranian lamb skewer or even another burger using a feta instead. The options are endless and lamb is a meat you should'nt shy away from. Nutritionally speaking, lamb is an excellent source of a nutritionally complete protein, meaning that it contains all 8 essential amino acids, as well as vitamins and minerals. Specifically, lamb is an excellent source of several B vitamins, niacin, zinc, and as with all red meats, is an excellent source of iron. In addition, lamb is one of the richest sources of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), a compound manufactured naturally in the stomachs of cows and sheep (but not humans) that is thought to spur antioxidant activity and may also have anti-cancer properties.bzz agent fortytoes #gotitfree!

Skinny Girl Cocktails Rock!
Private Selection and What a Selection there is!
As Bzz agent's, this family of 6 enjoy's trying out new product's and sharing our thoughts with you! When given the chance to review Private Selection products, we were very eager to get our free sample kit. It included an artisan bread, our choice of spice rub, a jar of preserves, bread crumbs, maple syrup, and our choice of beef (either ground or steak). I knew right where I was going to start, breakfast! Private Selection also happens to make delicious belgian waffles. My kiddos gobbled these up so fast! We topped the hot toasted waffles with butter, fresh whipped cream, blueberries, and Private Selections Medium maple syrup. This syrup takes you on a journey to where the north american maples grow and this sweet golden liquid is hand tapped and delivered straight to your famlies table. 100% natural and in a glass bottle. I can only imagine some of the other culinary uses this will have....I'm thinking something smoked....stay tuned for more PS product reviews, we'll be cooking up something special for dinner. The Texas BBQ Rub is going to come in handy tonight:)bzz agent fortytoes #gotitfree!
We'll-- all the kids got kidnapped for dinner at The Soup Plantation by some "friends with kids".....that's my kinda version of "friends with benefits"!! LOL , so the hubby and I ended up just eating a nice big salad along with the Private Selection Artisan bread he picked up. It was great with the Rondele soft spread cheese that we happen to have in the fridge and a chilled bottle of Skinny Girl Magarita. ( My husband opted for beer since the game was on :) It had a great crunchy crust to it and a soft chewy bite inside. I'm going to get another loaf to make some brushetta with the fresh tomatoes and basil in the garden...a little Pompeian Olive Oil and.....BAM! I will be getting this again. The price was right for the superb quality at only $1.99.
