Blue Sky Family Farms: “Ethical Eggs For The Humane Race” #FreeRange

Disclosure: This is a sponsored post for Blue Sky Family Farms. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Please see my disclosure policy) 

I have heard people talk about Free Range eggs and have always wondered, do free range raised chickens really produce the best eggs? I mean, isn’t an egg an egg? I typically buy the regular white eggs at my local grocery store and have never really looked into the difference between the two until recently.

Why is a cage-free range-free egg better for me than the other caged chicken eggs that I buy at the store? I was so excited to research and find out this information. Not only are these eggs better for you, but you will also be amazed at the taste, quality and texture.

Egg Innovations, an industry leader in eggs, has recently launched a new brand, Blue Sky Family Farms. Blue Sky Family Farms hold to the highest Humane Farm Animal Care (HFAC) “Certified Humane” standards for Free Range and Pasture Raised eggs. The Blue Sky Family Farms brand launched their “Ethical Eggs for the Humane Race ” campaign to help spread the word about how their Free Range and Pasture Raised egg productions create more humane, ethical and higher quality eggs.

Free range raised chickens really do produce the best eggs because the get to roam freely outside with social interaction. On the other hand, many of the eggs that you buy in the store come from chicken who are raised in a coop without social interaction from other chickens. In fact, Conventional Caged egg programs, which make up more than 90 percent of eggs sold in America, produce basic white eggs, and chickens are confined to an indoor cage with just 8 x 10 inches of space per bird for life.

The new Free Range facility outside Fort Wayne, Indiana, that houses Blue Sky Family Farms, provides more than 21 square feet per hen outdoors (compared to the one square foot per hen with typical Cage Free indoor facilities), extended temperature ranges for additional seasonal outside access, along with state-of-the-art barn building, equipment and systems. This is a much more humane approach than Caged chickens, where the hens spend their entire lives inside a barn. True Free Range and Pasture Raised egg production, such as the ones used for Blue Sky Family Farms, provides hens the freedom to roam not only inside barns, but also outside, allowing them to do what chickens naturally do: forage, scratch, dust-bathe, flap wings, perch, nest and interact socially.

“This is another major milestone for us to lead the industry in the humane production of Free Range ethical eggs,” said John Brunnquell, founder and president of Egg Innovations and the Blue Sky Family Farms brand. “And because our chickens get outdoors on pasture, customers keep telling us that our eggs look and taste better. This is amazing information when you really stop to think about the facts and compare them!


In addition, Free Range and Pasture Raised eggs also look and taste great as a result of their thicker shells, high orange yolks and thick egg whites. As someone who loves eggs and considers them a staple in my daily diet, I was excited to try this brand. As anticipated, the first thing that I noticed was the color of the yolks and the size of the egg whites. I have never seen a brighter yolk and thicker egg white before. They are absolutely gorgeous! And the taste – oh my goodness, they are so rich and delicious!

Aside from my favorite protein-filled snack of hardboiled eggs, I love to take a couple of sunny-side up eggs and pile up sauteed veggies for a healthy breakfast. This is a great start to my day. These Free Range and Pasture Raised Eggs from Blue Sky Family Farms are sure to be your new family favorite! 

Where Can You Purchase Blue Sky Family Farm Eggs? You can find this brand at over 750 Finer Natural Grocery and Retail Stores. GO HERE for more information and to find a location near you.

Check Out My Review of Scentsy Products!

Disclosure: I was provided with Scentsy products to facilitate this review. All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.

How many of you are familiar with Scentsy? Scentsy is a Family brand that offers a variety of home and personal fragrance products. 

I had heard of Scentsy before but never used their products before. My friend Jennifer is a Scentsy consultant and sent me a Scentsy warmer and some wax bars to review. I LOVE the Scentsy Warmer! The thing that I love most about the warmer is that it is much safer than a traditional warmer and does not require an open flame. You just plug it into the wall, place your wax bars on top to melt away and voila, your house smells amazing! 

I love how pretty the Scentsy Warmer looks just sitting on the counter as well. The light that is displayed from the warmer really brings a nice glow to the room and the smell is sensational!

There are so many different scents of bars to choose from-in fact, there is something for everyone! GO HERE to see the different fragrances that are available. 

Scentsy also offers other products like Bath & Body Products, Laundry Essentials and more! Jennifer sent me a Scent Pack in Apple Press that smells amazing! These scent packs can be used in your car or any area that you want to smell nice. I actually placed mine on a sconce in my bathroom. Every time that I walk into there it smells like Fresh Baked Apple Pie! 

If you are interested in learning more about Scentsy you can GO HERE to check out the website. Jennifer would be happy to give you any information on hosting a party, purchasing products and more. Please feel free to check out Jennifer’s Scentsy Facebook page as well. Here you can learn of promotional offers, new products and more.

My Review of the Too Faced “Better Than Chocolate” Natural Beauty Essentials

With Cocoa Powder Foundation Only

The Cocoa Powder Foundation glided right onto my face and gave me that flawless matte finish that I look for in a foundation. I loved how it made my skin feel weightless but yet gave me the coverage that I need.

I have never used an eye primer before so I was thrilled to try The Shadow Insurance Eye Primer. I was really surprised how well it made my eye colors glide right on. It also made the colors to appear even brighter. 

The “Better Than Chocolate” Chocolate Bar Eye Palette is filled with 16 gorgeous colors that are cocoa-powder infused. The palette looks like a real Chocolate Bar and the colors smell with a hint of Cocoa – this is a must for any Chocolate lover out there! I loved how the colors blended right in and I was able to mix and match them with such ease. There is a How-To Glamour Guide included with the kit that gives step-by-step instructions on how to create different looks with your eyes. I attempted the Milk Chocolate look and was very happy with the outcome!

I absolutely love the Better Than Sex Mascara. It really made my lashes look so long and thick! I am always looking for a mascara that gives me a dramatic look and this one really fits the bill!

The La Crème Color Drenched Lipstick in Nude Beach is my new favorite neutral colored lipstick. It is perfect for everyday wear and gives me a natural looking color but keeps my lips hydrated and moisturized. 

My Complete Too Faced “Better Than Chocolate” Natural Beauty Essentials Look

Here is my finished look with the products from the Too Faced “Better Than Chocolate” Natural Beauty Essentials. I love how natural the products look on my face, my eyes are sparkling and my lips look natural yet polished.

Review of the New Keurig 2.0 K300 Brewing System #keurig2.0

I was provided with this product to facilitate my review. All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.

I used to be a “Traditional” kind of coffee-pot girl until I discovered the Keurig Brewing System a few years back. My life has never been the same! My husband and I both work from home and use our Keurig several times a day. We find that a Keurig Brewing System allows us to be flexibile and to choose which beverages that we would like to enjoy. I am a huge iced coffee fan, so if I need a quick pick-me-up in the afternoon, I pull out the Keurig and can have a delicious Iced beverage without even leaving my house. 

When I was given the opportunity to try out the new Keurig 2.0 K300 Brewing System, I knew that it was going to be awesome. Well, this new system is beyond amazing! 

What makes the Keurig 2.0 Brewing System so unique is the technology that allows you to brew a Cup and a Carafe. Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology™ enables the brewer to recognize the inserted Keurig® pack and optimize to the recommended, customized setting for that particular beverage. 

Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology™ reads each lid to deliver a perfect cup or carafe every time. This ensures that the Keurig® 2.0 system delivers on the promise of excellent quality beverages, produced simply and consistently, using the best Keurig® brewer technology and new features like strength control.

I love this technology as there are some days that my husband and I would love to have more than one cup of coffee at a time. Or, there are those times when I have friends over and want to brew a larger amount of coffee. Now, instead of brewing each person their own cup of coffee, I can brew up to 4 cups at at time with the Keurig Carafe. It also has a timer so that you can set it at night and have a Carafe of coffee waiting for you in the morning!

 

Some of the other features of the Keurig 2.0 K300 Brewing system include:

  • 60 oz water reservoir
  • 2.4″ Black and White Touch Display
  • Brewer maintenance alerts
  • Strength control
  • Illuminated water reservoir
  • Customizable Settings
  • Includes 4-cup starter carafe, 2 K-Carafe packs and 4 K-Cup packs (All brewer descriptions must mention Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology and the Key Product Features)
  • Model# 114589
  • 10.43″L x 13.63″W x 13.45″H
  • Voltage: 120V/60Hz/1470W

Which K-Cups can be used in the Keurig 2.0 K300 Brewing System? The Keurig® 2.0 brewer will only function with Keurig® brand packs. That means the Keurig® 2.0 brewer will brew both K-Cup® and Vue® packs and the new K-Carafe™ packs. Keurig® brand packs have been specially designed to work with the Keurig 2.0 Brewing Technology® in the Keurig® 2.0 system, which guarantees a perfect brew every time.

I love the fact that I can use the Vue packs in this system as well as the standard K-Cups and the new K-Carafe packs! 

Want your own Keurig 2.0 K300 Brewing System? It was just released in stores on August 25 and is sure to be a popular gift for the Holidays! You can grab yours now while they are in stock at Walmart.com!

I love to keep classic pieces in my wardrobe that are no-fuss yet chic and elegant for those days when I need to grab something, throw it on and get out the door. 

The folks at Cable & Gauge were so gracious and sent me these 2 Gorgeous Maxi Twist Top Dresses in Bright Blue and Rust to review. I absolutely love these dresses! Cable & Gauge has taken the ever-popular Maxi Dress and given it a special flare with the twist design on the front of the dress. 

I love how these pieces can be dressed up or down with some simple accessories and shoes. For example, I was running around town doing errands today and wore the Bright Blue Maxi dress with a cute necklace and flip flops. I felt very put together and chic. In fact, I got so many compliments on my dress! The Rust colored Maxi is going to be perfect as we head into Fall. You can see that I paired it with a brown shrug and pretty necklace and bracelets for a more sophisticated look.

Not only do I love having chic pieces of clothing in my wardrobe, but I also love affordable pieces. Cable & Gauge offers fun, flirty shapes to comfortable classics, and each season they showcase affordable ways for women to update their wardrobes with wearable takes on the latest trends and key basics.
