Beehive Cheese Co. Review, Perfect Gift for that Cheese Loving Foodie.


We are a cheese loving family.  We are just starting to get back into doing "Cheese of the Week." We used to do this every week before Sy was born. We did it with Wine also.  So when I tried Beehive Cheese Co. recently, I immediately emailed the company to praise them on the quality of the cheese.  I don't think enough companies get positive feedback when deserved.

The moment I bit into the cheese, I may have started talking dirty to it.  The cheese is THAT good.  The sampler pack I received to review had four different cheeses.



Big John Cajun (Secret Cajun Recipe),Seahive (Real Seasalt & Wildflower honey), Teahive (with Black Tea & Bergamot), and Barely buzzed (Espresso, need I say more? I had tried the Barely Buzzed before, and that is what made me contact the company) are all worthy of experiencing.  Great texture on the tongue, easy to serve.  The tastes are simply amazing.

I prefer the spicy blends.  I also really like the Jams that come with some of the Gift Sets.  I've bought my hubby the set before, and that's how I found out about Beehive Cheese Co.  I like to buy him things he's never tried before, that he can eat instead of a gift that will just collect dust in the closet.  He ate the Hot Blooded Orange Jam on everything.  


Beehive Cheese Co. hand crafts their cheeses, and I can honestly say  that it is seen, and tasted in the cheese itself.  I was impressed by how fast it was shipped, and was delivered in a shipping cooler with ice.

Don't forget to give Beehive Cheese Co. some love on their social medias, 
Like Beehive Cheese Co On Facebook, Follow Beehive Cheese Co Twitter, and check out Beehive Cheese Co's website: www.beehivecheese.com to drool over all the other unique flavors.  I wish I lived near their shop in Utah because I would be there daily, sampling, and taking photos.  Some people dream of Gold, I dream of a cheese shop.  For everyone else tho,  find a retailer near you, or shop online for Beehive Cheeses.  

“What does a little monster take?”…“A Potty Break!” #PullUpsPottyBreaks #Ad



I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to Potty Training.  I also have no problem admitting I am a first time mom either! This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Huggies Pull-Ups.

We all start somewhere right? He will always be my baby, but what I do know is he's starting to take his diaper off after he uses it.  It's time to Potty Train my Big Kid, right? Right!


I keep calling the Monsters U Training pants his big kid underwear.  He has noticed the texture is different than his other diapers already. He also climbed up onto the toilet himself.  Now what? If you have any ideas, or suggestions what worked for you, Please tell me!! I am also learning more by going to Huggies Pullup's Potty Training Tips.  It's really cute, there are timers to download, even to sign up to get a phone call from Mike or Sully.

I am willing to try anything that makes this fun, and interesting for him.  He starts therapy for speech, and sensory soon at Childrens Hospital.  I am always trying to find ways to keep his interest for learning new things.  To express himself (He's non-verbal right now.) and tell me he has to go will mean so much to me.  So far, so good! This is when that No Fear Mentality will come handy.


To get Sy excited about being on the potty we also kept the Monsters U theme going by making some cookies as a treat.  I am proud of him for even sitting on the potty without throwing a fit. I also have a surprise for him when he uses the potty for the first time.  It hasn't happened yet, but I have been watching him like a mama hawk, and ready to put him on the toilet when I see him stop to go (This kid is always on the go, and into something.)


Pull-Ups helps take the scare out of potty training by making it fun and easy with new Monsters U character training pants! You can help make potty training easier by staying consistent and using rituals like the potty break. Make it a game and ask your toddler, “What does a little monster take?”…“A Potty Break!”

Visit Pull-Ups.com and “like” Pull-Ups on Facebook for more potty training tips and resources.

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Huggies Pull-Ups.

Help Hemp Farming, Actions That We As Americans Can Do.

I truly believe farmers should be able to grow hemp.  The essential oils, health benefit, clothing,  even fuel that can be made from hemp is way to beneficial to not have the knowledge.

Instead of believing Hemp is bad, when it is not.  In all actuality,  if consumed, hemp has fatty-acids, that the body needs.  Hemp lotions have more elasticity properties than those overly expensive water based lotions.

I believe instead of hating a plant, more people should be aware of the benefits. Hemp wasn't always banned.  Not until the government wanted them to stop growing hemp, and grow tobacco instead.  I won't even step on my soap box on why they did that.

This is Hemp week, instead of searching mind numbing MeMe's of cat's,  find out how easy hemp is to grow, and how you can support the Hemp Farming Act.
