Force of Nature is a FORCE to be RECKONED With

Tryazon is an amazing company that gets innovative products into the hands (and mouths) of consumers in fun settings like product sharing parties. This party, Clean Home for the Holidays, featured one of the greatest products I have ever had the opportunity to try. As a mom and pet owner, I am constantly thinking about the chemicals in cleaners and products used throughout our home. I have tried different brands of "green" and organic cleaning products, but never really had the results I wanted. That is until I tried the magic behind Force of Nature. Force of Nature is super simple to use. With its little chemistry show each time you make it, your budding scientist will be captivated!

Because there are no federal standards for “natural” cleaners, many contain harmful ingredients like dyes, fragrances, preservatives, SLS/SLES, phthalates, formaldehyde & thymol. With Force of Nature, you don’t have to worry about exposing your family & pets to harmful ingredients. It is seriously made with tap water and a little capsule containing a proprietary blend of salt and vinegar. The countertop device then electrolyzes the formula, creating the most effective cleaner I've ever used in about 7 minutes. Force of Nature compares to all the national big brand cleaners without the harmful or dangerous chemicals.

I put Force of Nature to the test on a grease build-up on my stove and oven. My son sprayed on Force of Nature, we waited a couple minutes, and then I simply wiped with a paper towel. Most of the grease came off in one swipe; I did go back over it to really test the cleaner. The results are amazing! I am sold on the effectiveness, the affordability, and the user-firendly nature of Force of Nature. This cleaner is definitely a Force to be Reckoned with!

Relax with Rituals #RitualsUSA #Tryazon #ShareYourSlowDown

WOW! When was the last time you took a minute to truly pamper your mind, your body, and your soul? Rituals is a luxury body care company focused on ancient traditions for the body and home. Rituals encourages "slow downs" for the mind, body, and soul.

Rituals is more than a pretty box of body care products. A fine fragrance holds the power to transform your mood, conjure up long lost memories and embrace you with a sense of comfort and well being. Designing a new perfume can be compared to creating a work of art: Rituals carefully uncover and combine all the right ingredients in order to compose the uniquely appealing character of every single fragrance created.

The Ritual of Happy Buddha has a warm, earthy scent of cedar and orange. The subtle scent and the luxurious feel of the "Happy Foaming Shower Gel" and "Happy Hands Hand Wash" make these products my absolute favorites. The "Buddha Belly Body Cream" packed hydration into my legs and feet. The sweet, but warm scent lasted throughout the day. "Let Your Skin Smile Body Scrub" is the perfect finishing touch to a hot, pampering bubble bath. My skin had a warm glow and felt incredibly soft after just the first use!

Top Trumps: Games for All Ages

I recently received Top Trumps and Lexicon-Go! from Tryazon in a Top Trumps Game Night.

I was excited to try Top Trumps because of the different categories I received: Star Wars, Harry Potter, Friends, and Wonders of the World. ">Playing Top Trumps The game that had me revved, though, was LexiconGO!It's like Scrabble without all the stuffy old-guy rules. You can change people's words, you can sabotage opponents, and you can even swap tiles. Playing LexiconGo! #LexiconGo #TopTrumps #Tryazon

Slow Down with Rituals

Rituals is an amazing bath and body company that leads the way in luxury personal care products in Europe. I tried The Ritual of Ayurveda, which is an ancient philosophy based on restoring inner harmony through the old practice of cleansing and nurturing the body and soul. The products use Indian Rose and Sweet Almond Oil and Cinnamon and Ginger to invigorate and harmonize. Learn more about them HERE. The dry oil is absolutely wonderful. I used it on my hair to tame frizz and flyaways in the humidity and used it on my body to nurture my sun-kissed skin. I love that it didn't leave a greasy feeling and left my skin soft and gently scented.

The foaming shower gel is one of the best lathering shower gels I have ever tried. The scent is slightly floral but completely unique and beautiful.

I received free products through Rituals and Tryabox/Tryazon. @RitualsUSA #ritualsusa #shareyourslowdown #tryazon

Game Night with #Telestrations by #USAopoly and #Tryazon

I was fortunate enough to get to try the game-lover's game Telestrations by USAopoly through Tryazon! Telestrations has sold over 1 million copies in over 17 countries and 14 languages and been awarded: 2010 BoardGameGeek Golden Geek Award for the Best Party Game, Creative Child Magazine Game of the Year in 2011 & 2013, National Parenting Center Seal of Approval and more. If you haven't yet heard of Telestrations, let me give you a quick overview. The game combines the classic Telephone Game with a familiar sketch and guess game. The fun part is that no two people would draw a clue the same.

You cannot use words or numbers. One person rolls the die; each person then writes down his/her code word. Then, when the time is up, each person passes to his/her neighbor to begin the guessing. The guess becomes the next person's secret word. The real fun begins when everyone shows the original code word and just how off-track it got. The laughs continue for as long as the game continues!

Goddess Garden Pool Party #Tryazon

Summer is here; with that, comes the warm rays of sunshine and endless hours in the sun. We all love to soak up the rays, but doing so puts us in grave danger without the proper protection. Sunscreen is a must! Conventional sunscreens can take up to 20 minutes to become effective, and they can also be absorbed into the bloodstream. They can wreak havoc on sensitive skin. Meet Goddess Garden!

Goddess Garden was developed by a mom for her daughter, whose skin reacted poorly to conventional sunscreens and body products. Founder and CEO Nova Covington began making her family's skincare in the kitchen, using all-natural, food-grade botanical ingredients that were effective and safe for her daughter. One of Goddess Gardens founding principles is that people should spend more time enjoying life and less time reading labels, so Goddess Garden makes products that are free from synthetic chemicals that can cause skin reactions, hormone disruption, and contribute to the destruction of coral reefs.

Goddess Garden is a company, but more than that, it's a group of people who believed in what they were doing and wanted to help. Goddess Garden is family. It's friends. It's neighbors. It's everyone who knows it's a big world, but we can all make a difference. Goddess Garden sunscreens are effective immediately. For best application, apply to small areas of skin. Rub until it is no longer white on the skin.

Ozobot Edu Party #Tryazon #OzoSquad

As a high school teacher, I see it as my obligation to prepare my students for the future. While I teach English and perform instructional coaching across the curriculum, one of my major focuses on is STEAM. I want to provide my students with the best possible education. Coding and technology are an integral component of a well-rounded education. My school doesn't currently have specific coding classes or clubs, though after my Ozobot Edu Party, that should rapidly change. We have a lot of interested students. Coding inspires great learning. and Ozobot Evo makes coding simple and fun!

Pi Day with PIE! #numbersalive #tryazon

We held our annual Pi Day celebration on 3-14-18. Students did an activity where they brought in a sphere or something round. They then measured and used the formula to come up with an average to get as close to Pi as possible. This year the average was 3.145!

We then celebrated with few different kinds of pie a la mode. The students learned that Albert Einstien was born on Pi Day. We talked a lot about how Pi has helped in the development of technology. Our math teacher is amazing and always does such a good job celebrating.

To end the Pi Day celebration, we celebrated with pizza pie! Thanks, Numbers Alive and Tryazon!

#SagaformUSA - Herbs and Italy Party with Tryazon

I was fortunate enough to be selected for the Trayzon Sagaform - Herbs and Italy Party. I love to cook and I love to share food with my friends and family. My fiance is full Italian, so we have pasta frequently. We also love to use fresh herbs and make homemade sauces.

For my party, I made lasagna to share with my guests. I made a homemade sauce form fresh tomatoes, peppers, basil, onion, and garlic.

I loved the Pasta Spoon with the built in grater. I used it for a meal with my fiance and son. We made chicken alfredo.

I also made a braised steak with couscous and kale. I used fresh chives, rosemary, and garlic.

Sagaform USA offers high quality products. I cannot wait for my herbs to start growing with my Sagaform USA Herb Planter.
