eco-friendly lunch box review from easylunchboxes.com

Eco-Friendly lunchbox review from
I don't know about you, but it seems like every year when school rolls around we are going out to buy another new lunch bag because the one from the year before is destroyed!! I have never been a fan of the bags we have had in the past because they don't hold very much! Here is a solution to that problem :-) http://www.easylunchboxes.com/ A mom just like many of us was struggling with packing her kids healthy lunches for school. She was always using baggies and just trying to make it work. Her solution: Eco-friendly lunch box and special containers to eliminate the use of bags.


I received a sample to try and I was really impressed! The bag itself is very roomy and fully lined to keep things cold or hot! I also received four containers with matching lids. The containers are wonderful because they are divided into 3 separate spaces. There is a large space for a sandwich, salad or other main course and two other spaces that you could put side items into. The food stays separated and fits perfectly into the bag leaving A LOT of room to add fruit, a thermos, or water bottle. I even was able to put more than one container in the lunch bag at a time and use it to take my little boys' lunch to the park!!


Here are some of the specifics from the website: " http://www.easylunchboxes.com/ offers a reusable, superior solution at a much lower price than other companies. Great for large families or those on a limited budges. FDA approved, no BPA, phthalates, lead, vinyl or PVC. Safe for dishwasher, microwave, and freezer" " The cooler bags are made from the highest quality 300D polyester for premium durability and toughness. Vinyl free (PVC free) & lead free, with an FDA compliant PEVA lining."


I LOVE my lunch bag and containers! Head on over to their website and check them out! They have many great colors to choose from. I promise you won't be disappointed!!

Pink Stamper Father's Day Challenge


http://www.pinkstamper.com/ is giving away a Cricut Expression!! All you have to do is create an original Father's Day card or layout and upload it to her site for a chance to win. My husband is a HUGE Cubs Fan so I found this city outline on my potpourri cartridge that kind of looks like Chicago and then used the All Star and Baseball cut on potpourri cartridge! I used gold stickles for the window and the star to add a little sparkle! It will go great with his Cubs tickets he is getting for Father's Day!!
