ALDI GROCERY STORES

05/12/2014

I wanted to let you know that at Aldi Stores they have just had shipped in the US gluten Free Products there are many to choose from.
They are priced significantly lower then  regular super markets
I tried their Live G Free Light & Fluffy Buttermilk Pancakes.  They were really very good .
The price for the Pancakes was 2.69 for a package of 12 of them.  They have all sorts of products
They are trying this out and they say that they will carry a lot of these products but they will be picking and choosing which ones sell better.  These are the ones that they will be keeping but they say that they will be adding more products.
If you go to www.aldi.us   you can put in the store locator , once you have the store in your area put in the search bar Gluten free products and they will have all their gluten free products and the prices for them.  I am very impressed with their gluten free pancakes and will be trying the other products .  There are about 30 different products
I was so impressed that they brought in their product line of gluten free  products and that the prices were so good.
I hope you will try out these great products I know this is where I will be going for my gluten free products now

Sincerely Yours

Skinner's Salve

04/13/2014



Skinner's Salve is fantastic.  this salve takes care of any need you might have for pain relief or even mosquito bites.

I began using Skinner's Salve for itchy skin it was amazing.  It took the itch out right away.   This product is completely all natural.

I began to use it for any type of ailment I  had even headaches.   I would just put it on my far head rub it in and presto no more pain

I have now a frozen shoulder that I  am in pain almost every day
I thought well it worked for my other ailments mind as well  see if it will work for this
The one day I was in so much pain I was seeing stars and crying out loud.
I grabbed the jar and began putting it on my shoulder.  I was not really thinking it would work.  It did and then some, no more pain no more stiffness .  I could move my shoulder

I use it for sinus problems mosquito bites pain in any area and it goes away in a very short amount of time.

I have a friend staying with us, she does not have any dental or health insurance. She  is trying to get some now.  Her wisdom teeth were coming in and she was in sheer pain.  she was taking Advil and a few other things to help the  pain.
She said to me I can not take anything else but I am still in so much pain.  I said to her here take this my Skinner's Salve.  She does not believe in natural products.   I said you have nothing else to lose try it.  I said to her do not put it in the inside of your mouth put it around your sinuses and your jar line and your cheeks .  She said to me you are nuts how is this going to help me?  It is in my tooth.  I said just try it.  She put it on her face where i had told her to put it.   She  looked at me like I had 3 heads.  In about 15 minutes later she said to me what is in this stuff?  It is relieving the pain
There is  no more throbbing pain. I explained to her that it is just petroleum and natural herbs .
  I do not like to take Advil or any type of pain medications,   because of the chance of having gluten in it.  I use this all the time now and it just works
The website is www.skinnerssalve.com
I wanted to let you know about it in case you feel the same way that I do to get products that work and are natural to relieve what ails you

Sincerely Yours

The Happy Mixer new gluten free bakery in Chalfont Pennsylvania

02/07/2014

I  found a fantastic all gluten free bakery in Chalfont PA
This bakery is like a fairy tale land bakery, it is like you just landed in a magical city of gluten free delights.
The whole bakery is gluten free.
The owners did a great job of making their bakery a delight to walk into
The husband of the duo team is gluten intolerant and he really made sure that he knew everything there was to know about having  sweet morsel of his products to  be safe and tolerant for people on a gluten free diet.
He had a very successful bakery and when he himself became gluten intolerant he decided he had to close down his bakery.
He worked for 2 years making different recipes of his baking goods gluten free.  His wife who is not gluten intolerant he had her taste his products.  When she finally said yes to  everything a star was born with the opening of his bakery..  He  called his bakery The Happy Mixer after his wife  ( Lisa )
Tim  Mouer is the baker he has baked all his products to perfection.  I stopped in a week ago and felt like I said before that I  was in a winter wonderland of sweet delights.  When I came into their bakery I  asked them can you tell me what products are gluten free?  They laughed and said everything is gluten free.  I  looked around and I was so excited I felt like it was Christmas all over again.  I felt like a little kid again don't tell any one but I am now 53
When I came in Tim and his wife ( Lisa )  really made me feel special and they explained how their bakery got started and how they are so very particular about everything  that goes into their  sweet gluten free delights.  He does not let any of his employees bring anything into the bakery that has gluten in it.  This is  mandatory that no gluten is able to come into the bakery or eaten in their bakery.  They let their employees know about this when they are hired.
Lisa is a school teacher and after she teaches for the day  she comes to the bakery to help out her husband.  
I bought a few things and they had given me many samples  to try.  These products are in a word perfection.
I love this bakery I hope you will stop in and see how great it really is

Uncle Harrys Products

01/15/2014

I love  love Uncle Harrys all natural products, their website is www.uncleharrys.com
They have virtually everything for skin care, they have simple organic ingredients  in there products.
My favorite products is the African Hair care Organic  Coconut  Oil .  It has in it coconut oil Hemp oil, burdock root nettes essential oils of geranium, lavender lemon rosemary and tea tree oil.  It smells amazing.
I also love their All natural Body Buffer Scrub.  This product is in a word amazing.  I have what you call alligator skin because I  think from  having both Type 1   Diabetes and also Celiac Disease.  This  product has done wonders for me.  I just wash with Uncle Harry's powdered soap then afterwards slather this on while being in the shower.  It smells so good.  I used the Citrus Delight.  It looks and feels like a solid coconut oil but with a lot of salt to it.  You just take a bit out rub it together on your hands and smooth it all over your body but  of course make sure it does not go into your eyes and rinse. This product is also great as a beauty treatment for your face.    Instantly my skin comes alive and smells wonderful.  my skin feels soft smooth and looks great.  Usually after I take a shower after about an hour I  am scratching away and my skin becomes red and hot, not with this product my skin stays well hydrated.  The ingredients are Sea Salt Apricot Kernel oil  orange, lemon and lime essential oils.  This is I feel my favorite of all their products.  My next favorite product is the African Hair Care Shampoo.  This is made with African Black Soap.  The full ingredients are African black Soap Castile  Soap Apple Cider Vinegar Organic Virgin Shea Butter hemp oil and essential oils of lavender rosemary lemon tea tree oil.  They have tooth paste powders that I also love and one of my top favorites is their Oatmeal and Coconut Soap Powder.  This  I love it comes in a small container and you just put a little soap powder in the palm of your hand mix some water  to it and there you have a rich creamy indulgent soap.  It comes in Peppermint and Lavender scents..  I personally love them both but if I  had to pick one over the other I  love the Peppermint the best it smells like a Peppermint and white chocolate scent to me.  This product I also love because if you are on a camping trip or even just in a long car ride you an pull this product out put a little in your hands mix with a bottle of some spring water and you can feel clean and refreshed without having to find a bathroom on the side of the  road or just running into a pit stop some where you have everything you need right with you .    One of the things I love about Uncle Harry's products is that they have a couple different sizes of their products.  So that if you are not sure if you would like a product you can just try out the smaller size and see how great it is and then get the bigger size.  Their products are extremely economical.   Their packaging is simple not fancy but the products themselves are fancy and amazing you will not be sorry.   My advise to you is to go ahead and try out these fantastic products..  The website once again is www.uncleharrys.com.  I do not work for this company at all I wish I did . I just wanted to let you know how great their products work.  I also have paid for every product I tried out.

Thank you again

Laundry Pills





12/07/2013

I think I just found the top dog in Laundry Detergents.  This Laundry Detergent is Hypoallergenic , Unscented Antibacterial .  It cleans extremely well and for an all natural Laundry Detergent is is cost effective.  This Laundry Detergent is not your usual Laundry Detergent it comes in a capsule.
You would use 2 capsules for a small load
                       3 capsules for a medium - large load of clothes
                       4 capsules for a large to extra large load of clothes.
This Laundry detergent also has a built in fabric softener in it.
I Love Love this Laundry Detergent
This Laundry Detergent can be found on the website www.shecology.com and you will want to look for the Laundry Pills.  You get 100 Laundry Pills for 10.00 plus shipping.  When you  want to reorder it again you  would save the jar that it came in and order the Laundry Pill Reorder bag.  Once you get it in the mail you would just open it and put it in the jar.  The reorder bag is even less money it  is 8.00 plus 1.00 shipping.
Mary  Fox the owner of the company has Goat Milk Soaps all natural Micro fiber cloths for cleaning.
and if you  love Soap Nuts like I do she also has them.
You  have to try this out you will not be sorry just go to her website www.shecology.com and order some of her great products particularly her Laundry Pills

Thank you
