I wanted to capture the moment when my youngest daughter lost her second tooth. When I asked her to smile she gave me this goofy smile exaggerating her toothless grin.
I have been singing,
“All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth” and that’s all I can remember of that song!
Without Googling it, who can tell me the next line? The first person to answer correctly without cheating will win a prize! Honor system here, it’s not going to be some flimsy whimsy prize, ok?

About Ningxia Red
Ningxia Red is made of wolfberry puree, blueberry juice, pomegrantate juice, apricot juice, raspberry juice, grape pomace and a proprietary essential blend of blue agave nectar, lemon rind and orange rind. The Ningxia wolfberry has long been considered a national treasure in China. The wolfberry is native to the Ningxia Hui Autonomane Region of Northern China. This potent little red berry offers medicinal and healing benefits.
One ounce of Ningxia Red only has 34 calories!
My Review(and it’s my 5th post in my Losing Weight Series too)
We have used Ningxia Red over the past few years pretty infrequently. However, this past January we started using it on a daily basis. Most of our children like it. It has a different taste, not bad, but different and it definitely tastes better cold!
Over the months I have noticed that I do not have to wear my glasses all the time, especially while reading or doing things on my iPhone. This is strange because ever since I got glasses I have worn them all the time because I am near sighted and hate to see things blurry, so I even wore them while reading. Improving our eyesight is actually what we hoped would happen for as there are seven of us who wear glasses. However, so far I am the only one seeing any difference in my eyesight. Time will tell. The wolfberry is suppose to be very good for the eyes for some reason that I can’t remember.
My second oldest daughter likes to take Ningxia Red to ward off migraines.
We have also drank an ounce or two for a boost of energy too. I have taken as much as 4-5 ounces when I have worked long hours at trade shows so I could stay alert to talk to people and be able to remain awake when I drive home. (This happened back in December!)
Ningxia Red Sorbet
½ c. water
¼ c. agave
2 c. NingXia Red®
2 12-oz. bags frozen raspberries, blueberries or strawberries
1 orange
In a small sauce pan, simmer Blue Agave and water for 1–2 minutes or until agave mixes easily with the water. Set aside to cool slightly. In a blender, puree NingXia Red and one bag of raspberries. Transfer mixture into a metal bowl and stir in the zest of half the orange. Next, squeeze half the orange into the mixture. Place agave and water mixture into blender along with the remaining bag of raspberries and puree. If mixture becomes too thick, simply add a cup of the mixture in the bowl. Pour into bowl and fold in until well mixed. Place in freezer and freeze for two hours. Serves 12–15.
Refreshing and yummy summer treat compliments of Young Living!

It is important to do some marketing for your business. For the longest time I only marketed my business when I needed to, silly eh? But I have learned that I get far better results if I am continually marketing my business(es). After all a business does not always grow itself, it needs to be watered – garden analogy since it is gardening season.
If you are a mom in business, then you probably use business cards in your marketing plan. I have used a number of different companies to purchase business cards and have even received them free on rare occasions. This is one occasion I get to be the source of helping moms market their businesses by offering a giveaway of 250 Free UPrinting business cards! You’ll also get a chance to share your business (or blog) as one of the Rafflecopter options!
UPrinting offers some cool looking business cards. I have used a try fold, but like the look some of the ones UPrinting has to offer and will be ordering some for our farm or blog.

I love comfy clothes. Unlike my oldest daughter, I usually go for comfort over fashion, that’s not to say that I do not like nice things, I do. I just happen to like them to be comfortable while looking good. My mother always said I had expensive taste, which I admit that I do, however, I am also very practical so usually practicality outweighs/out wins my taste. For that my husband and our bank account thank me.
By now you are all wondering what that has to do with Body Bark and comfort and probably asking, “What is Body Bark? Get to the point already!” Ok, if you’ll stop shouting, I’ll oblige. Hee hee.
Body Bark
Nope, I am not going to recommend that you wrap your body in something but I am going to talk up a wonderful line of Body Bark clothing that is wonderfully comfy. Invented by moms, for moms, the Body Bark is a luxurious brand to make us feel good! This women’s clothing line may be worn alone, as underpinnings or a layer piece. It is the missing piece in your closet!
All of Body Barks products are made in the USA. Bonus!
Body Bark Tank
I received a Body Bark Tank in the color navy, size XL to review and it is one of the most comfortbable tops I have worn. It is very soft and fits to my generous curves. “95% MicroModal®, 5% Spandex. The secret to Body Bark’s luxurious feel is its natural-fiber fabric derived from beech wood. (Hence the name “Body Bark”) Made by Lenzing Fibers AG, the MicroModal® fiber used in Body Bark products is sustainable.”
I don’t usually wear tank tops so I tried wearing this to bed and loved it! It will be easy to wear this luxurious top beneath other clothing, but I haven’t personally tried it yet. Nor have I washed my top yet since I have just worn it to bed a couple of times. So I cannot tell you how it washes up.
It fits me great and falls a little past my hips because of my short stature, but is actually the length I prefer.
Prices are on the higher side, but when you think of the money saved by wearing Body Bark under other clothing, eliminating putting those clothes in the laundry pile and your dry cleaning bill will be lower when you wear a Body Bark piece beneath a dry clean only article of clothing. Added bonus, eh?
Mompact is offering a giveaway package, which includes one Body Bark product so be sure to enter if you want to try this luxurious top too!
I don’t know what I get myself into sometimes but I have enough on my blogging plate to keep a couple people busy! Good thing my daughters know how to or are learning how to promote givewaways, enter giveaways or I’d really be up the creek without a paddle! This is another awesome giveaway if you are JC Penney fan. I love their towels! We have had them all our married life and I finally had to replace some of them a year ago. We still use the old ones, but I’d love to replace more of them. This next giveaway would be an awesome Mother’s Day gift idea for yourself, your mom or even your mother-in-law, so without further adieu….
