The Refresh’n Dryer Towel is an amazing towel that turns an ordinary dryer into a steam cleaner. If you often have clothing that just needs to be freshened up, not completely rewashed, or is even just wrinkled (we have this issue from clothing ending up in piles on the floor), the towel can refresh and unwrinkle the clothes in about 10 mins.

We really love the towel, and especially the fact that it is reusable and 100% natural. You can acheive the benefits of a steam clean, without any chemicals. Just soak the towel in water, toss it in with your clothing, turn on the dryer, and the Refresh’n Dryer Towel does the rest. One towel will refresh 3 articles of clothing at a time. They are good for up to 25 uses, and don’t shrink.

Now that we have tried it, I can’t imagine not having one on hand for those times when we need something clean to wear, but don’t want to do a load. So much of our clothing never really gets dirty enough for a full wash, the Refresh’n Dryer Towel is a great way to save time, water, and wear and tear. We think it’s totally wish list worthy!

Thanks to the Family Review Network for the chance to try out this great product!

We had the chance to reveiw Sensible Sippers recently. First of all, we are a juice loving family. We are always looking for quick and easy ways to get more fruits and veggies into our diets, and juice, especially if it is pure juice, is a tasty way to do just that.

The juice boxes were a really easy way to get just the right amount of juice. And they are super convinent for packing in lunches. And it doesn’t hurt that they have the Berenstain Bears on the boxes! Very cute as well as healthy.

Sensible Sippers juice boxes for kids are 4.23 oz of certified USDA Organic juice, and feature classic Berenstain characters (Papa Bear, Mama Bear, Brother Bear and Sister Bear). Flavors are Fruit Punch, Banana, Apple, and Mixed Berry and contain 40% fewer calories than regular juice boxes, contain no added sugar, artificial flavors or preservatives, and are certified organic in accordance with the USDA’s National Organic Program.

Now, as for the taste. Because they are 50% juice and 50% water the flavor isn’t as strong as other juices. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. For example, with the fruit punch, the lighter flavor was just right, whereas we would have liked the apple to be stronger. Still, it’s a very pleasing flavor all around.

The first drive in movie I remember going to was a James Bond movie! I don’t remember how young I was, but my parents took me thinking I would sleep through the whole thing. I must have slept through most of it, because I only remember a golden woman. Now that I am grown, I have to say that James Bond is one of our favorite movie series.

We especially enjoy the music, so I was really excited to get a review copy of the The Best Of Bond James Bond (CD/DVD). It has all of the themes from each James Bond movies! But not only does it have each song, it also has 5 music videos and a live performance.

Aside from the well known James Bond Theme, my favorites are View To A Kill by Duran Duran, The World Is Not Enough by Garbage, and Die Another Day by Madonna. I actually purchased the Die Another Day single when it first came out, but there are so many other great James Bond themes on the disc, including Live And Let Die by Paul McCartney and Wings. There are 24 tracks in total.

November 14 is the U.S. opening of the new James Bond film, ‘QUANTUM OF SOLACE’. If you are a 007 fan you will defenatly want to add the The Best Of Bond James Bond to your collection so you can listen to it all and soak in the James Bond goodness before going to the new film.

1st Comes Love is an online stationary shop that specializes in personalized stationary. They have a wide range of products, focusing mostly on event invitations, but also personalized note cards. According to their about us page, they “specialize in announcing life’s moments; your moments. We focus on capturing emotions and translating them into designs that find the right mix of ideas, ink and paper.”

They sent some samples of their personalized invitations as well as a set of note cards. I was very impressed by the quality of the printing and the paper that was used. All the designs and photos were crisp and clear, which is exactly how you would want your personalized product to be. The designs are also very creative and varied, which would make it pretty easy to find something to fit your needs. My favorite note card is the Lovebirds, although I loved the floral designs as well.

If you are looking for an invitation to make an impact for your next event, you should take a look through the 1st Comes Love gallery. I especially love the daisy design and the lion! They have a lovely range of holiday designs as well!

I was really excited to be able to try out PictureItPostage personalized postage stamps. I admit, I am a big fan of snail mail, and being able to make my own stamps was something that I had always wanted to try!

The PictureItPostage website made it so simple to create my own stamps. I used a photo of our cute dog,  because who can ever get enough of seeing her? All I had to do is choose which photo I wanted, and if I wanted to change the color of the bar on the side (I did change it to a blue/green color). They did the rest! The stamps came so quickly after my order too!

I can’t wait to use them! And I am planning to order more for our holiday cards as well. What a fun way to add a little sparkle to your snail mail!

I was lucky enough to receive an advance copy of the new Tina Turner CD called Tina! This disc has all of the best Tina Turner songs on it, and even includes two previously unreleased songs as well as four concert recordings. This is the perfect CD for those who enjoy her music, but haven’t bought any of her previous releases.

I really enjoyed it because there were so many songs that I always turn up when they come on the radio. This is my first Tina Turner album, and I have to say it’s a great one! It has all the songs that I enjoy from her, and many I hadn’t heard before but now really enjoy.

Here is a sample of the songs:

• River Deep Mountain High
• Better Be Good To Me
• Private Dancer
• We Don’t Need Another Hero (Thunderdome)
• Proud Mary
• And many others! 18 songs in total.

So, if you enjoy Tina Turner’s music but haven’t taken the plunge to add it to your collection yet, this is the right album for you! For more opinions and reviews about this new CD please visit the Family Review Network.
