A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventure: Review

Little Man has been sick on the couch for the last 4 days, so our DVD player has been running nonstop. When A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventure arrived, we were excited to have a new movie to watch.Based on the true course of a sea turtle's life, Sammy's Adventure follows him from a hatchling as he makes a fifty year journey through the ocean. Sammy, an extraordinarily cute turtle, fights his way to the ocean, makes friends, has run ins with sharks, and searches far and wide for his one true love, Shelly.

The animation in the movie is amazing, making you fall in love with all the little sea critters. The soundtrack is upbeat, and the voice talents, including Melanie Griffith, Kathy Griffin, Tim Curry, Anthony Anderson, and Stacy Keach, give each character such personality and spunk.

Rated PG, A Turtle's Tale makes for a great family movie. My 7-year-old dubbed it "awesome," and my hubby and I enjoyed it as well.

Buy It:
A Turtle's Tale: Sammy's Adventure is available on Blu-ray and DVD combo pack April 3rd.

Beanfields Nacho Bean & Rice Chips: Review

Last year we were excited to find out about Beanfields chips. Made from beans and rice, the chips are free of all the top 8 food allergens (plus are corn free).

Until recently I didn't realize just how many people have to deal with food allergies. I've been gluten free for quite awhile, but in the past 5 months have become dairy free as well. It can be so hard to find quick snacks that still taste good.

Beanfields chips are a yummy, filling snack, that are easy to grab on the go. The newest addition to the Beanfields line are their Nacho Bean & Rice Chips. They offer 4 grams of protein per serving, as well as 4 grams of fiber. Plus they are Non-GMO and vegan.I had to laugh when my (non-allergy suffering, hater of all my "free-from-everything" foods) hubby announced how good the chips were. He is by far the biggest snacker in the house, and the hardest to please, but he loved the nacho chips. They have a great flavor and texture.

Buy It:
You can buy Beanfields chips at a natural food store near you or order online. They retail for $2.99-$3.99 for a 6oz bag or $1.19-$1.49 for a 1.5oz snack size.

DiaperPods

Ever been out when your baby decides it's time to fill a diaper? Happens to us every single time we go somewhere. Which really wouldn't be a huge ordeal, except for the fact that I never remember to take a trash bag with us to contain the stink. And I'd feel way too guilty throwing something that potent into a public trash can.

DiaperPods are an innovative solution to the stinky, stuck without a bag situation. The trash receptacle is actually built right into the back of the diaper. It's completely sealed, to maximize safety, but easy for a grownup to access, allowing for easy disposal of a dirty diaper.Want to try DiaperPods? Well, they need your help. DiaperPods aren't in stores yet, but can be, with your vote in Walmart's Get on the Shelf contest. The contest will help three new products land on shelves. Voting is going on now until April 3rd. You can vote for DiaperPods up to twice a day.
