CoolCanucks Blog ~ Dr. Lucy’s Yummy gluten free Cookies Review!!

Wednesday, May 15th, 2013

 

 

Dr. Lucy’s Yummy gluten free Cook­ies are made with­out milk, eggs, peanuts or tree nuts, but you’d never know it—they’re deli­cious! Now one can enjoy gluten free cook­ies that taste so good and sat­is­fies the sweet tooth!

 

Heav­enly, gluten-free cook­ies are hard to find, but Dr. Lucy has found a way to beat that by cre­at­ing the most deli­cious, gluten-free, vegan and allergy-free cook­ies on the mar­ket today. This com­pany also sells many delec­table fla­vors that hon­estly tick­les the taste buds!

 

 

 

 

When Dr. Lucy Gib­ney learned her child had severe food aller­gies, she got down to some seri­ous med­ical research — in the kitchen. Today, Lucy’s cook­ies stand as deli­cious proof that no one should have to sac­ri­fice tasty treats because of their dietary concerns.

“Our Qual­ity Assur­ance Pro­gram pro­vides deli­cious treats for you and your fam­ily while doing every­thing we can to safe­guard you from these spe­cific aller­gens: gluten, milk, eggs, peanuts and tree nuts.”

With Dr. Lucy’s cer­ti­fi­ca­tions for gluten-free, kosher and vegan prod­ucts – you’re cer­tain to find the per­fect treat everytime!!

 

 

 

 

These cook­ies come in many tan­ti­lat­ing fla­vors: Sugar Cookie, Cin­na­mon Thin, Oat­meal Cookie, Choco­late Chip Cookie, Maple Bliss, Gin­ger Snap, Hol­i­day Sug­ars and Choco­late Mint! I also noticed a delight­ful snack on their web­site that is new to me, Gluten-free Choco­late Brownie Cakes! Oh they look so yummy!!!

 

 

 

All the cook­ies are made from a sim­i­lar cookie “base” that con­sists of the in-house flour blend (gar­banzo, potato starch, gluten-free oat, tapi­oca, sorghum and fava), evap­o­rated cane juice, soy milk, sev­eral oils (palm fruit, soy­bean, canola and olive), fil­tered water, fla­vor­ing and cit­ric acid from corn, crushed soy­beans, soy lecithin, non-dairy lac­tic acid, beta carotene, bak­ing pow­der, bak­ing soda, salt, xan­than gum, cal­cium car­bon­ate, annatto extract color, sodium car­boxymethyl­cel­lu­lose, and methylcellulose.

Dr. Lucy’s cook­ies web­site describes the cook­ies as “crispy, crunchy,” and they hit the nail directly on the head. There is not a chewy bit to be found in these cook­ies. They’re seri­ously crunchy through­out. If you like your cook­ies crunchy, you’ll love these from the first bite to the last bite (which is often one and the same bite… since the cook­ies are pretty tiny, you can pop a whole cookie in your mouth all at once) and not even feel guilty!!

 

 

 

I received a cou­ple of boxes of these amaz­ing cook­ies. The mouth­wa­ter­ing fla­vors sent to me were Cin­na­mon Thin and Gin­ger Snap. They were extremely tasty and enjoyed by the entire house­hold. No one com­plained, and even walked back for sec­onds. Melyssa is a really picky eater, and so when I am sent food or drink items to review, they must pass her taste test first. She gave Dr. Lucy’s Yummy gluten free Cook­ies a very big thumbs up, and con­tin­ued to snack on them through­out the course of the evening. So if she loves them, I def­i­nitely know that you will love them! I really liked the yum­mi­ness of Dr. Lucy’s cook­ies too. What a great any­time snack, and also a wel­comed addi­tion to everyone’s lunch bag around here!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dr. Lucy’s gluten free Cook­ies gets a huge thumbs up from Cool­Canucks, and I will def­i­nitely be order­ing more in the near future!!

CoolCanucks Blog ~ Nisim® International Review!!

Friday, May 10th, 2013

 

 

 

 

“Nisim Inc. is a Cana­dian Com­pany which has devel­oped many inno­v­a­tive and suc­cess­ful prod­ucts…such as Kalo® a hair inhibitor to pre­vent unwanted body hair from grow­ing back, and Mila­gro a nail strength­ener, as well as F.A.S.T.® For­ti­fied Amino Scalp Ther­apy for the fastest grow­ing hair possible!

 

 

 

Nisim is one of my all-time favorite hair-care prod­ucts store, and Nisim Inter­na­tional get’s brag­ging rights from this CoolCanuck!!

I can­not express how much I really love the F.A.S.T.® For­ti­fied Amino Scalp Ther­apy sham­poo and con­di­tioner, and absolutely swear by these prod­ucts! I have done a num­ber of reviews for Nisim in the past, and they keep me coming back!!

F.A.S.T.® is designed to grow your hair as fast as humanly pos­si­ble.  F.A.S.T.® line includes both sham­poo and conditioner!

Nisim has cre­ated a prod­uct that has been clin­i­cally proven to con­trol exces­sive hair loss and regrow hair. Nisim’s prod­ucts are shipped around the world and also has dis­trib­u­tors in more than 30 countries!!

 

 

 

Nisim’s® prod­ucts are all made with nat­ural herbal based active ingre­di­ents devel­oped using the pro­pri­etary extrac­tion meth­ods devel­oped by Nisim after over 20 years of research on the study of hair growth.

“All of our prod­ucts are backed by a 100% money back guar­an­tee. You can try our prod­ucts risk free know­ing that we will refund your money if you are not sat­is­fied for ANY rea­son.” Nisim® Inter­na­tional sells the BEST Hair Prod­ucts out there!

I absolutely both the sham­poo and con­di­tioner from the F.A.S.T.® line and I hon­estly can­not rave enough about this prod­uct! I just adore it, period! It makes my hair look so shiny, smooth, and healthy —– as well as mak­ing my hair stronger! My hair also grows so much quicker! I love it that much!

Another great prod­uct that they carry is called Kalo. This is a NEW herbal solu­tion to an OLD painful prob­lem — Hair Removal!

“Nisim® began sell­ing the Kalo® Hair Inhibitor prod­uct in the spring of 1997. Kalo has also been sold through hair salons and spas. Kalo® has been very well received in the mar­ket, so much so that there are many knock-off prod­ucts; even one of the large drug com­pa­nies has cre­ated a prod­uct to com­pete with Kalo®.”

 

 

 

This time around I was asked to review the new sul­fate free FAST sham­poo and con­di­tioner 2 pack from nisiminc.ca and I absolutely LOVE IT! Finally, a sham­poo and con­di­tioner that’s good for you! F.A.S.T. sulfate-free sham­poo is unbe­liev­ably rich and full of mois­tur­iz­ing lather, pro­vid­ing extreme hydra­tion to chron­i­cally dry hair while being light enough for all hair types.

Sul­fate, or sodium lau­ril­sul­fate (also known as sodium lau­rel sul­fate or SLS), is a chem­i­cal used in many com­mer­cial prepa­ra­tions. It is often used for clean­ing solu­tions in the kitchen. In other words, it is a grease cut­ter and a dry­ing agent. It is also a surfactant.

 

A sur­fac­tant reduces the sur­face ten­sion so that instead of hav­ing two small drops of water, they will now more read­ily com­bine to make one, larger drop. It will also per­mit the mix of oil and water, which does not hap­pen under nor­mal con­di­tions because sur­face ten­sion keeps each as their own entity.

 

Think about it, if sul­fate can cut the grease in house clean­ers, it can cer­tainly destroy the nat­ural oils that are in your hair. With­out oil, your hair will turn frizzy. Your scalp will also become devoid of the nat­ural lubri­cants. Your body’s response is to make more oil. This becomes a vicious cycle the more you wash your hair. Not only will your scalp become very oily, so will your fore­head where sham­poo is in con­tact with it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FAST sham­poo and con­di­tioner from nisiminc.ca are my all-time favorites when it comes to hair care. This is the only sham­poo and con­di­tioner that I will use, and noth­ing else even com­pares to it! I love the smell of it, and the way that your hair feels after you step out of the shower is great!

The biggest ben­e­fit is that you may actu­ally gain some hair vol­ume because of the health of your scalp and hair fol­li­cles will improve with­out the irri­ta­tion of sul­fate in your sham­poo. So, if you have a sen­si­tive scalp, chron­i­cally dry or brit­tle hair, colour treat­ments or perms, these are some of the rea­sons why sul­fate –free sham­poo is bet­ter for your hair.

 

As usual, nisiminc.ca get’s a huge thumbs up from CoolCanucks!!

CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Two Leaves Tea Company Review & Giveaway!!

Thursday, September 27th, 2012

 

 

Being huge tea drinkers at my house as well as at my par­ents, I just knew that I had to try all of the huge assort­ment of teas that Two Leaves Tea Com­pany car­ries! After com­ing across their web­site, my eyes lit­er­ally popped when I saw many dif­fer­ent mouth­wa­ter­ing fla­vors that I have never tried before!!

I was sent a some of their famous Pais­ley teas, and as expected, they tasted just as good as described! We all had a field-day exper­i­ment­ing all of the scrump­tious fla­vors in that box! These are the most deli­cious teas that I have tried yet!!

 

 

At Two Leaves Tea Com­pany, you will find the best organic tea ever! They offer so many vari­eties of yummy teas that you can try for your­self, or even offer as gifts for your fam­ily and friends! Almost every­one that I know is a tea-lover, and now I have the per­fect gift in mind for that per­son on my hard to buy for list!!

Choose from:

 

jas­mine petal green

assam break­fast

earl grey

tamayokucha

chamomile

pep­per­mint

gen mai cha

three tea sampler

bet­ter morn­ing blend

bet­ter belly blend

bet­ter rest blend

moun­tain high chai

orange sen­cha

 

And so many more!!

 

 

 

“Founded in 2005, two leaves tea com­pany™ began with a jour­ney. Founder Richard Rosen­feld trav­elled the world on busi­ness, where meet­ings are syn­ony­mous with amaz­ingly fla­vor­ful cups of tea. After return­ing to the states, Richard looked every­where for a good cuppa’ tea…but had a hard time find­ing one.

Richard trav­elled to gar­dens in China, Sri Lanka and Japan to estab­lish rela­tion­ships with tea grow­ers in order to bring pre­mium, whole-leaf tea from the best har­vests to tea drinkers around the world. Two leaves tea com­pany™ has been rec­og­nized for the pas­sion, care and effort that goes into cup­ping our tea, with awards such as the Best New Tea award for 2005–2006 from the Spe­cialty Cof­fee Asso­ci­a­tion of the United States, and the People’s Choice Award at the Great Cana­dian Tea Steep Off in 2006.”

 

“Our expe­ri­ences at the gar­dens have taught us one incred­i­bly impor­tant thing — how to rec­og­nize and appre­ci­ate great organic whole leaf tea. Our com­mit­ment to “go there” means we’re pro­vid­ing our cus­tomers with tea that tastes as if it has been plucked and steeped direct from the gardens.

Two leaves tea com­pany™ was one of the pio­neers of the pyra­mid shaped tea sachet that allows tea drinkers to expe­ri­ence whole leaf tea in the com­fort of their own home. The sachet gives the whole tea leaves the abil­ity to expand, yield­ing a rich, fla­vor­ful cuppa’ that can’t be paralleled.”

 

 

You just can­not go wrong when shop­ping at the Two Leaves Tea Com­pany. Their prices are very rea­son­able, their cus­tomer ser­vice skills are phe­nom­e­nal, and their deliv­ery time was also beyond out­stand­ing! I strongly rec­om­mend this scrump­tious tea to every­one!! At this time, two leaves’ pri­mary dis­tri­b­u­tion in Canada is in food­ser­vice (cafes and restau­rants). Some of these cafes/coffee houses may also sell whole boxes of their tea. How­ever, all of their prod­ucts are sold on the web­site twoleavestea.com.

CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Life without Plastic Freezycup™ Ice Pop Molds Review & Giveaway!!

Wednesday, September 19th, 2012

 

Back in 2009 I dis­cov­ered a phe­nom­e­nal com­pany called Life with­out Plas­tic when I had the oppor­tu­nity of doing a review and give­away with them. They sent me a Stain­less Steel Air­tight Water­tight Food Stor­age Con­tainer as well as a Stain­less Steel Hot Meal Con­tainer to test out, and these 2 prod­ucts are still used at my house to this day! These prod­ucts rock, period!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

We know too much plas­tic ruins the earth. And plas­tics con­tain­ing BPA ruin our health. BPA is short for bisphe­nol A, and stud­ies have shown that it can cause can­cer and other med­ical ill­nesses in ani­mals. Well, some com­pa­nies are pio­neer­ing the move to BPA-free prod­ucts, to keep us humans safe.

We’ve seen ref­er­ence to the dan­gers plas­tic poses to marine life and wildlife, garbage that we humans directly and indi­rectly deposit in the oceans or on the earth, but how clearly have we received the mes­sage? Not clearly enough it seems!

Once ani­mals, marine life or wildlife ingest plas­tic, thou­sands of spines lin­ing the throat and esoph­a­gus make it nearly impos­si­ble to regur­gi­tate. The plas­tic can lead to par­tial or even com­plete obstruc­tion of the gas­troin­testi­nal tract, result­ing in decreased diges­tive effi­ciency, ener­getic and repro­duc­tive costs and, for some, starvation.

Plas­tics inges­tion doesn’t always cause death, but there are clearly health risks! The frus­trat­ing, yet hope­ful aspect is that humans can eas­ily begin address­ing the solu­tion, with­out major lifestyle changes. It’s as sim­ple as reduc­ing pack­ag­ing and mov­ing towards alter­na­tive, biodegrad­able mate­ri­als and recycling.

And this is why I am cer­tainly grate­ful for “Life With­out Plas­tic”!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

About this won­der­ful com­pany, a blurb from their web­site:

 

Who We Are: Activists for a Plas­tic Free Planet

“We launched Life With­out Plas­tic (“LWP”) in 2006 after sev­eral years of day­dream­ing about how to make a con­tri­bu­tion to reduc­ing the large quan­ti­ties of plas­tic that are con­sumed every sec­ond of every day around the world.  We played with ideas for rais­ing aware­ness about the issue. We wanted to address the envi­ron­men­tal dis­as­ter that the con­sump­tion of plas­tic is caus­ing, and the dam­age that leach­ing plas­tic can cause to human and ani­mal health.  We quickly real­ized that before we could effec­tively help peo­ple reduce their plas­tic con­sump­tion, we had to be able to point them toward non-plastic alter­na­tives that could replace the plas­tic items cur­rently used in day-to-day life.  When Life With­out Plas­tic was cre­ated, very few alter­na­tives existed in the North Amer­i­can mar­ket, espe­cially for food and drink con­tain­ers.  Our son was born in 2003, and he was the cat­a­lyst. He made us look more actively for alter­na­tives in North Amer­ica and in other coun­tries around the world.  This is how Sanc­tus Mundo, our unique prod­uct brand, came into existence.

Fast for­ward three years to 2009 and here we are.  There are now many more alter­na­tives to plas­tic prod­ucts avail­able thanks, for exam­ple, to the tremen­dous media atten­tion on bisphe­nol A over the past two years.  Yet one thing we are notic­ing is that the qual­ity of these alter­na­tives varies sig­nif­i­cantly.  There are some won­der­ful new prod­ucts cre­ated with a real con­cern for qual­ity, health, the envi­ron­ment, and work­ers con­di­tions. But there are other prod­ucts out there that are unsafe.  For exam­ple, not all stain­less steel is cre­ated equal, and as with many things, price is often an indi­ca­tor of quality.

As we con­tinue to ful­fill our goal of mak­ing avail­able more and more high qual­ity alter­na­tives to plas­tic prod­ucts, we are now able to begin focus­ing increased atten­tion on an equally impor­tant ele­ment of our mis­sion:  rais­ing aware­ness about plas­tics issues by pro­vid­ing solid sci­ence– and experience-based infor­ma­tion and show­ing peo­ple, one per­son at a time, the beauty and sim­plic­ity of a life with­out plastic.”

 

 

 

 

 

This great com­pany car­ries all sorts of alter­na­tives to plas­tic, mak­ing the envi­ron­ment such a bet­ter place.

They sell all kind of sweet prod­ucts, including:

 

Bags

Child and Baby Products

Food Stor­age

Non-Plastic Toys

Table­ware

Water Stor­age

 

 

 

 

 

This time around they sent me some fan­tas­tic Freezy­cup™ Ice Pop Molds to try out and as per usual, Life with­out Plas­tic did not disappoint!!

Sum­mer at the Diotte house­hold means refresh­ing pop­si­cle time. We eat pop­si­cles all through­out the day and the evening. We devour them when we’re blaz­ing from the hot sum­mer sun, like we have been for most of this summer. We chow on pop­si­cles at any old time because they are refresh­ing, fun, and when they’re not loaded with sugar and arti­fi­cial food colour­ing like the ones you might buy in the store, they’re very healthy and also an eco-friendly sooth­ing snack for peo­ple both young and old!

These Freezy­cup™ Ice Pop Molds are made of stain­less steel and come with three reusable bam­boo sticks and two sil­i­cone gas­kets each.

Pop­si­cles are one of the eas­i­est make-it-yourself treats both because they’re quick (not count­ing freez­ing time), and because they use up fruit that might be too ripe to eat but very easy to puree. All you need to make pop­si­cles is:

 

* Life with­out Plas­tic Freezy­cup™ Ice Pop Molds

* a mix­ture of what­ever tin­kles your fancy, (what­ever you would like to eat in your popsicle)

* a blender of some sort to puree the ingre­di­ents so you can pour them into your Freezy­cup™ Ice Pop Molds; and

* a fun­nel so you can eas­ily pour the puree into these awe­some Ice Pop Molds.

 

 

 

 

 

These are the best Freezy­cup™ Ice Pop Molds by far that we have ever tried! No more shop­ping for super­mar­ket pop­si­cles now thanks to these molds from Life with­out Plas­tic! They rock!!!!!
