    Laptop Lunches

    No wonder Laptop Lunches has thousands of fans! With the smart Lunchbox to The Laptop Lunch User’s Guide with recipe ideas, this company has taken 90% of the stress and work out of the morning “get ready” ritual. Lunches on the go couldn’t be easier, or trendier to say the least!

    My laptop lunch kit came in a super-cool black and red carrying case with a black and red lunchbox, but the color choices are varied. With a canvas case, a lunchbox complete with water bottle, four individual serving trays, utensils and even a User’s Guide full of great recipes for quick, tasty and healthy lunches, where could you go wrong? There’s even an extra small container with a lid for sauces and dips! Not only will any child be hip, yet organized, with the Laptop Lunch, this lunch service is primo for adults that prefer healthy, quick lunches over greasy fast food or daily restaurant jaunts.

    The only downside I can see to this lunch pail experience vs. brown-bagging it would be the daily cleaning. If you’re a typical lunch carrying person, you’re already used to this. If you’re a newby to packing your grub (to save dollars and improve your health of course), then give yourself a few days to acclimate to the new cleaning routine. Believe me, it’s better than 4 different “to-go” containers you may already be slouching around!

    Other than that, this eco-friendly lunchbox will satisfy every quick-meal need you have. From the sleek design to all the necessary components, your lunch preparations will be so easy you might actually have time for that morning walk!

    Warning about opening the lunch box container: You may need a 5 year old to assist you. It’s not mechanical, but it’s one of those “The harder you try, the harder to open.” Just get basic, use a lighter touch and it’s 1-2-3 simple.

    Love It!

    Scent to Sleep Spray

    Luscious Lavender or Green Apple and Vanilla. The thought of these fragrant aromas alone are enough to entice you to close your eyes, put a smile on your face and relax. Imagine how you’d feel with these natural fragrances actually lulling you to sleep!

    The concept here is simple. Scent to Sleep offers an easy solution to insomnia sufferers and restless sleepers alike. Just spray and sleep. Yep – and it’s great. Especially if you are an aromatherapy lover like me.

    The bottle, (which is very affordable by the way), boasts enough Scent to last for many dozes. And, the process is simple- with just a few sprays on your linens, you rest your precious little head onto the pillow and drift off into la-la land. Sounds too good to be true? With a history of sleep issues for the past year, I've tried all of the potions, pills and eye pillows. I can say that this natural remedy ranks as one of my favs.

    The bottle recommends to pump 5-6 sprays onto your pillow and bedsheets, but honestly, I think 3-4 will do the trick. The first night I tried Scent to Sleep, I started with 5 and found the aromatherapy to be a little strong. This tidy sleep-aid is potent. With the natural ingredients of essential oils and a bit of alcohol, too much was too much, but just enough was, well, just enough. Within minutes of using 3-4 sprays the following nights, I was relaxed with eyes closed and a mind that was cranking down from over-drive to neutral. My favorite scent, the Luscious Lavender, has a hint of peppermint to create a smell that isn't overly flowery. Their Green Apple and Vanilla is nice too, but I'm not a dire vanilla fan and was side-tracked with the scent more than the therapeutic benefits.

    More great advantages: No sleep-aid hangovers. No lingering scents on your sheets or hair. Non-toxic. Nothing to swallow, wear or rub-in. Just keep the classy bottle next to your bed, spray and sleep. And, it feels nice to take care of your body – especially when the benefits include fresh, wonderful smells and a vibrant mind in the morning. I'd say, give it a spray.
