Amazon Finds

Linking up with Tanya for out latest Amazon finds. I haven’t done a post in a few months, so there is a good bit here!

To-go Condiment Containers

Zoe has been taking hummus to lunch a lot lately and I was using silicone cupcake holders, but they make a huge mess in her bentgo box. I tried the throw away kind, and they always leak or get deformed. Enter these. Amazing! Pretty! Leak proof! Why did I wait so long?

Lavender Syrup

My favorite coffee order is an iced lavender latte, no matter where I go. I decided to order a clean version of the syrup for home so I can recreate them.

Gabby Dollhouse Toy

I grabbed this for Zoe for Valentine’s Day. She loves Gabby and has most all of the characters except Kitty Fairy and Carlita. I thought this was such a cute set to add to her collection. She plays with these dolls all the time.

Organic Pads

I have always skipped over these when sharing our purchases, because I figure no one wants to really talk about them. Maybe it is TMI, but after months removed from the conventional feminine products like Always or Stayfree, I have to share how amazing and life changing these are. My period is lighter, I have less pain, and none of the uncomfortable feelings I had from wearing the other mentioned brands. I will never go back. Ever. They have lots of different sizes based on your needs. Look into the ingredients that are being used by Always and others, and you will see that it makes sense why you have discomfort after wearing them for a few days.

Unbleached Parchment Paper

Basically a monthly reorder. Love this stuff.

Bee Keepers Natural Cough Syrup

I had a lingering cough for over two weeks. I used the throat spray from Bee Keepers and absolutely love it. But when you get about half way through the bottle, the spray stops working because it gets jammed up. My guess is because honey is sticky. I decided to grab the cough syrup instead.

I also got the kids version for Zoe. Allergy season is here and I want to be stocked up! She uses the kids throat spray a lot and really likes it.

Also grabbed these to keep on hand. As you can tell, we really like this brand. I almost got a bag from another brand at Publix, but when I looked at the nutrition facts there was so much added sugar!! These only have one gram, you have to check labels even for cough drops and medicine these days for all the added garbage. So sad.

Play Food Kit 1

Play Food Kit 2

One of Zoe’s favorite things to do is pay restaurant with Chris and I. She asks us nearly every evening if we would like to order from her restaurant, and she gets work “preparing” us “food” from her play kitchen. Chris ordered these two kits for Valentine’s for her and she couldn’t be happier with them.

Scratch Paper

Chris also ordered this scratch paper kit for Zoe for Valentine’s Day. This would be cute for the Easter basket also! I love that it comes with stencils that you can use.

Dance Bag

Zoe’s original dance bag that I had monogrammed for her when she started at 2.5 is too small to holder even one pair of her tap shoes now. I had to get her a big girl version, and this is what I thought would grow best with her. I love all the compartments, and that there is a separate area for her to store sneakers in. It comes with a shoe bag inside that are perfect for her dance shoes!

Children’s Bible

Zoe lost her bible at church before Christmas and it was never turned in. I decided to order her a new one, and wrote her name in it in several places. This one is really cute in person and has some devotionals scattered throughout that I really like that reminds me of the one I have and read daily.

Ultima

Another constant reorder. My chiropractor suggested an electrolyte drink every day and I have to be honest and tell you that this makes a HUGE difference in how I feel. I never knew this could have an effect on my back and hip pain…but wow! I missed two days of it and I was so sore, and the next day I had one and felt better immediately. This really helps me stretch my time between appointments with him. I have tried many flavors from this brand, watermelon is my favorite with blue raspberry and pink lemonade as close seconds.

Baking Powder without Aluminum

I can never find baking powder without aluminum in stores, I grab this on Amazon when needed. Why do companies add aluminum when you don’t have to??

Lanyard

Zoe had a dress up day at school and needed a lanyard since she was a teacher. This is a great quality and we are keeping it for the next time a need arises.

Mario Book

Added this to our library.

Coffee Glass

These are STUNNING and hold a good amount of coffee. They are also short and wide to fit under our expresso machine. Not a lot of mugs fit. The gold spoons are so pretty and dainty and having lids is a great option! Very high quality. There is a $3 off coupon on the date I posted this too.

Glass Straws

I love that this pack has two different size and shaped straws. These are perfection and makes drinking anything you use them with feel luxe. I have been making iced lattes every afternoon, and I love to use these. Easy to clean and an amazing price.

Breville Touch Expresso Machine

We purchased the fancy screen Breville Touch and cannot be happier with it. 100% worth it!!! We can recreate any coffee drink at home with a few easy steps and it is actually fun and sort of a hobby of ours now. Anything we make at home tastes a million times better than the burnt taste Starbucks doles out. Highly recommend this machine!

The next few items are accessories we have collected to use with the Breville. They aren’t necessary but if you are serious about your coffee, definitely things to consider to make life easier.

Tamper

The Breville comes with a tamper, but this one weighs a lot more and makes it easier to get an even pour.

Puck Screen

Expresso Shot Glass

Knock Box

Makes dumping grinds so much easier than running across my kitchen to the trash can, dripping everywhere as I go.

Thermometer

Tap Shoes

It is recital season and time to get the right color shoes for our costumes…and always the time it is time to size up for Zoe’s ever growing feet. We love these tap shoes! So much better than ones with ties.

Ballet Shoes

Again, so much better than ones with ties that never stay tied!

Dance Leotard

Grabbed this to gift Zoe on recital day. This is an amazing price!!! I always get her a new leotard for a recital gift as we head into summer dance classes.

Protein Powder

Constant repurchase. Such a great price for grass-fed whey protein.
