    National Oral Health Care Month #ChurchandDwight

    April 10, 2017 /

    Did you know that April is National Oral Health Care month? It’s also the perfect reminder that it’s important to pay special attention to our teeth and overall oral hygiene, which can have a tremendous impact on our overall health. Did you know that poor oral health can lead to gum disease, which left untreated, can lead to the loss of teeth…and sometimes heart disease? Now that my kids are teenagers I discuss the impact of poor oral health care on them more than I ever used to do.  Both my girls are old enough to understand that there are no short cuts to good oral health care. Skipping brushing,…

    March 15, 2017 /

    Spring Forward: Schedule These Six Daylight Savings Time Tasks #ChurchandDwight

    March 6, 2017 /

    Spring Forward with Daylight Savings Time Daylight Savings Time can be a good news, bad news kind of event. Good news – it stays light later at night. Bad news – changes of any kind can throw the kids for a loop and sleep sometimes is completely messed up due to the time change. But, regardless of whether you love it or hate it, Daylight Savings Time can be a reminder to manage certain household tasks that you sometimes neglect or forget. March 12th marks Daylight Savings Time this year – the day we welcome a much needed extra hour of sunlight after winter! For some people the extra hour of…

    Oral Health – Don’t Let the Kids Neglect Their Teeth This Halloween

    October 26, 2016 /

    Oral health is so important to our overall health, and it’s vital that we make sure our children have good oral health habits like brushing and flossing 2 to 3 times daily. This is even more important when Halloween rolls around. All that candy coming in may be tasty, but it’s also terrible for the teeth. This Halloween help your kids remember their oral health with Philips Sonicare and Furball Pal Sparkly. Oral Health for Better Health Oral health is key to keeping our entire body healthy.

    Enjoy Coffee Time Without Worrying #ChurchandDwight

    September 28, 2016 /

    Coffee time is simply essential. At least, it is for me. I love coffee. I cannot start my day without it. I need that jolt of pure go juice induced energy to get me started on my day. I used to be one of those people who had a pot of coffee ready to go pretty much all day. When my blood pressure started to be too high for my comfort though I trimmed right back. Note – trimmed back. I didn’t quit entirely because I love coffee time too much and I need it to power through busy days. That’s why September 29th, National Coffee Day, is one of…

    My Five Favourite Travel Necessities

    June 14, 2016 /

    I have been giving travel a lot of thought this year and trying to up my game. That got me thinking about my five travel necessities. You know, those things that you have grown to love as a frequent traveler or a travel blogger? We each have some products we love and rarely leave home without. These are my favourite travel products that keep me sane on the road. I have been consistently traveling once a month and that has made me more conscientious about what I need to travel, and what I can live without when I am away from home. Recently I took stock of my five travel necessities…

    On What Planet is Toothpaste Compensation for Work?

    April 16, 2014 /

    Today I am feeling ranty about Blogger Outreach that just didn’t hit the mark. And I am a little bit stabby. But yesterday was worse. Let’s start with the why. Yesterday, I landed two amazing absurd, totally missed the mark, offers to blog about dental products. So far so good. Teeth are important and that kind of blogger outreach program could be done well potentially. These pitches came from two different boutique PR agencies. Well, clean teeth and healthy living are subjects I love to write about actually and I am heading to the dentist this evening because I have a sore tooth and it’s that time of year. The teeth…

    Saving Money at the Dentist with DentalPlans

    August 10, 2012 /

    No secret that dentistry, planned or unplanned, can leave the average person out of pocket for hundreds, perhaps even thousands of dollars. If you don’t have insurance, what’s a family to do? Luckily DentalPlans has some answers to your dental needs. With plans that start at $79.95 a year, you can help your family save. I am all about the savings here, so this is one service that caught my eye. Plans start at the low price of $79.95 for single patients and $129.95 for families. That’s a good deal less than many dental insurance plans.  As a mom of two girls who have both needed costly dental work this…
