Tealightful Teas

Tealightful Teas
I love these teas. They are extraordinary teas
There are so many to choose from and best of all they are all gluten free. I spoke with the owner of the company and she explained that they thoroughly check out each of their teas to make sure their is no gluten in them and if there is any other type of allergen they clearly list it . They are very much health conscious. They are all natural and organic.
I love them so much that I decided to become a representative for the company
My website is www.tealightfultea.net/1183
I hope you will try out these teas and see for yourself how great they are.
I have one other company that I wanted to let you know about this is not a food or skin company but a very unique clothing company.
I found them by accident and love love them. They have fleeced lined Leggings leg warmers arm warmers and jewelry.
It is like one stop shopping for all your needs.They have all sizes including plus sizes. The products look great even on a plus size woman like myself and the prices are fantastic like Leggings for the price any where from $ 9.00 - $ 13.00
My website is www.endlessxpressions.com/rep/#Ellensshop
Starting today they are branching out and having clothes for toddlers and young girls.
I hope you will think about trying these great companies

FRENCH TOAST MUG
FRENCH TOAST MUG
I usually do not do recipes on my blog because there are a million or more recipes out there but this one I could not resist . I figured I could easily do this recipe gluten free and even safe for diabetics.
I tried it and I not only liked it i loved it and it is so simple to make
2 pieces gluten free bread
1 egg
a quarter cup of milk
1 Table spoon butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon more if you like cinnamon
1 table spoon sugar
Syrup or jam of your choice
Melt the 1 Tablespoon of butter in a mug that can go into a microwave for 30 seconds take out of the microwave. Put the 1 Tablespoon of sugar or sugar substitute then the quarter cup of milk the egg and the cinnamon
Then crumble the two slices of bread into the mixture and stir . Now they say microwave for 5 minutes for my microwave it is 3 minutes so for the first time it might be trial and error but this is so good. Then just put your choice of syrup or jam on it and there you have a hot breakfast with protein that taste great and no fuss no mess. Just sheer enjoyment. I was thinking about this and you could mix the wet ingredients in a mug with a lid to it bring two slices of the gluten free bread in a plastic bag . bring your syrup or jam with you to work and you could just microwave it there when you get to work or for your break and there you have a great meal
Thank you

Norwex products
11/08/2015
I just wanted to let you know about the Norwex company. Love love their products . My favorite products are the Kitchen Cleaning Products . These are all natural organic environmental cleaning cloths that make cleaning a snap and almost fun to do.
For the kitchen I love love the Kitchen Cloth for 9.99 this is so amazing I can clean almost all my dishes with just the cloth and water . I do not have to buy any dish detergent. Just hot water and the cloth even stuck on food comes right off without any elbow grease
If I feel that I need a little more help with a pot or pan such as my son forgetting to clean a pot out or pan and leaving in the sink until the end of the day. I just break out my Kitchen Scrub cloth and in no time flat clean as a whistle with out any worry about thinking am I going to have a reaction to the dish detergent. There is no dish detergent needed just some warm water and the cloth and you are good to go. Just rinse out when you are done and hang to dry. Once a week just wash the cloths separately in the washer with a chemical free detergent
You can check out these great cloths on my website . When I believe in a product I like to really get my hands into the company and be a part of it so I am now apart of this company. My website is www.ellengaffney.norwex.biz to get to these great cloths when you are on my web page just hit shop now then go to Kitchen cleaning and you will see them there. I also really like the window cloth this really does a great job on mirrors and windows just like all of their cloths all is needed is water and the cloth
I hope you are doing well
Thank you

Giant Food Stores
09/25/2015
I wanted to let you know that it used to be that only a select few of the Giant stores had lower prices then others. Some even had much higher prices. The sale items in all their stores stayed the same but their every day items that were not on sale had different prices for different Giant Food Stores
Starting this week a majority of the Giant Food stores are lowering their store items to be the same for all their Giant stores.
This will be completed in the next three weeks but the majority stores have had this done starting this week.
So check out your Giant Food store and you will be surprised that the prices are lowered
Thank you

Hint Water
Hint Water
I just purchased this water and love it. It is Diabetic friendly for types 1 and 2 and it is also Vegan and Gluten Free.
It taste great, it is all natural and organic
They have many many flavors to choose from Peppermint, Honeydew, Strawberry Kiwi , and so much more there are about 15 different flavors to choose
On the company website which is www.drinkhint.com you can buy a case of water there other wise Giant food Store do carry it. A bottle of this water sells for 1.39 at some Giants other Giants will be 1.59 for one bottle. I do not know if you know this but not all Giants are priced the same.
Some Giants will be priced higher if they are not near a store that they are competing with. for instance the following Giants are lowered in price then other by more then and it can be 20 50 more cents. Flourtown zip code 19031 is one of the lowest Bluebell Conshohocken and Plymouthmeeting are one of the higher ones.
There is nothing added to this water except the except the fruit essence of fruit
I hope you enjoy them

Tandem TSlim Insulin Pump
05/23/2015
When Asante Snap insulin pump closed their doors last week. I was confused upset and wondering what was I going to do.
I only had supplies for the Snap insulin pump for about another week. I called my doctor's office to explain what had happened. They unfortunately never got back to me. I received from my son's doctor who is a Type 1 Diabetic the rep's phone numbers for Animas and Medtronic. I called them immediately gave them all the information. I also told them I was pressed for time. They took my information and did not get back to me for about 4 days by that time I had already received my new pump. My sister said why don't you call Gary from Integrated Diabetes. She is also a Type 1 diabetic. Gary is outstanding he has a website www.intregrateddiabetes.com and has classes for better control with diabetes being it for type 1 or type 2 Diabetes. His telephone number is 610 642 6055 . I called him I called him and he said if I were you I would call the Tandem company . They have an insulin pump called the Tslim and they have one called the Tflex insulin pumps both are fantastic. He gave me their telephone number and the reps number. This was on Monday morning I called the rep and got her answering machine then I called Tandem. I spoke with Danica she was outstanding her number is 1877 801 6901 at extension 6893. She took all my information told me their insurance verifyer was not in but would be in tomorrow Tuesday. She let me know that she knew how important this was for me and let me know that they would take care of this right away. Ryan called me the next day Tuesday went over my insurance again and doctor's information. He had Angie the rep I left the message for go to my doctor's office and get all the paper work they needed on Wednesday. By 5:00Pm on Wednesday he had it approved and sent out to me over night. I was trained on Friday and I love the pump you can see it on the website www.tandemdiabetes.com The insulin pump is easy to read and easy to use. It has a rechargeable battery so I do not have to have batteries on hand. They say that it needs to be recharged about every 7 days and it only takes 10 minutes to charge. The pump is set up like a Samrt phone you just push whatever screen you would like to get into. I love this pump also because all your important information is right on the front screen Insulin on board how much insulin you have left and if you have any remaining insulin from the last time you bolused
Just wanted to let you know my decision on my new insulin pump.
Thank You
