It’s Friday again, and time to talk about some products that I received this week. I have some good stuff here! I received samples of each of these from the company so that I could use them and talk about them. These range from heartburn relief to a childrens’ book, to vanilla. Let’s get started!

Relief OTC

relief otc

Did you know that 40% of the population of the U.S. suffers from heartburn at least once a month? Does heartburn increase as you age? Are men or women more likely to suffer from heartburn? Whether you or your doctor call it hearburn, GERD, esophageal reflux, it still has the same uneasy, burning sensation in your throat and chest. When it happens, you feel like you can’t get relief fast enough.

Relief OTC is a new, liquid over the counter solution for heartburn relief. It is a drinkable clear liquid that does not leave you with a chalky aftertaste. It works as quickly as you can drink it, for immediate relief of heartburn pain.

The active ingredients in Relief OTC neutralize acid quickly to provide fast relief. Relief OTC does not contain aspirin, gluten, or aluminum. It is recommended that you check with your doctor before taking Relief OTC if you are taking other medications or are pregnant, and it is not recommended for children under 12 years old.

Active Indgredients:

  • Each 2 oz. dose contains: calcium 109mg

  • Each 2 oz. dose contains: potassium 177mg

  • Each 2 oz. dose contains: sodium 320mg

  • Store below 86°F (30°C)

Inactive ingredients: magnesium hydroxide, methyl paraben, natural flavors, propyl paraben, purified water, sucralose

Gluten Free

Distributed by: Tummy Company, Inc, Phoenix, AZ 85054 USA

Relief OTC products are available at most chain pharmacy stores, and at Amazon.com

 

Nielsen-Massey Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Extract

Nielsen Massey Madagascar Vanilla

Nielsen-Massey has been producing the finest vanilla extracts since 1907. The found, Richard Massey, partnered with Charles Nielsen, and the company is still family owned by the third generation of Nielsens today. They take pride in manufacturing only the highest quality extracts for consumer, industrial, and culinary customers.

In addition to Madagascar Vanilla Extract, Nielsen-Massey also produces Organic Madagascar Vanilla Extract, Mexican Pure Vanilla, Tahitian Pure Vanilla, Pure Vanilla Extract, vanilla pastes, powders, and sugars, and whole vanilla beans.

You will be amazed at the difference in flavor of Nielsen-Massey Vanilla and that of other brands. I have used the Madagascar Vanilla Extract as a flavor enhancer in my chili recipe, and my husband has always remarked on how good the chili was, but he couldn’t put his finger on what was different about it. It just IS better.

Other extract flavors include Pure Almond, Pure Chocolate, Pure Coffee, Pure Lemon, Pure Orange, Pure Peppermint, and Orange Blossom Water and Rose Water.

To find out more about the company, their products, and where to buy them,  visit the Nielsen-Massey website. You can also purchase their products on Amazon.com

A Bucket Of Blessings

A Bucket Of Blessings
A Bucket Of Blessings

If you have children ages 4-8,  “A Bucket of Blessings” is a very cute story to teach them determination, and what it means to be a blessing.

this storybook is the perfect way to teach young children about the environment as well as a valuable lesson on determination.

Beautifully illustrated and simply narrated, A Bucket of Blessings tells the story of Monkey in his quest to resolve a drought by helping peacock perform a rain dance. The tale reminds readers that with perseverance and positive thinking anything is possible and helps families recognize that, as Dr. Maya Angelou expresses in her beautifully crafted Afterword, “it is a blessing to be a blessing.”

In addition to a good story for children, the mother & son authors of the book, Surishtha Sehgal and Kabir Sehgal, are donating a portion of the proceeds to charity: water, an organization that provides clean drinking water to communities in developing nations. You can purchase A Bucket of Blessings at Simon& Schuster, or at Amazon.com

By Kabir Sehgal and Surishtha Seghal, illustrated by Jing Jing Tsong  $16.99  ISBN: 9781442458703

Cookies Con Amore

Cookies Con Amore Gluten Free Assortment

If you eat a gluten free diet, and are looking for some really special cookies for a gift or a just as a treat for yourself, then you need to get some of these Italian cookies from Cookies Con Amore!  It is hard to find the words to describe these cookies. Perfect. Delicious. Scrumptious. Do I need to go on? The assortment package contains all of these varieties of cookies:

Biscottini
Our gluten-free biscotti are made with a special blend of wheat-free flours. They are crumbly and crunchy rather than hard, making them edible without the need to dunk them in coffee (not that we don’t enjoy dunking!).

Ricciarelli
The Ricciarelli is a traditional Tuscan wedding cookie that combines orange with almond flavors. Finely ground almonds and whipped egg whites form the base of this cookie. We add sweetened orange peel, fragrant orange zest and fresh almonds to provide a flavor that lingers lightly on one’s palate.

Nonnine
We use a special gluten-free cake flour to give this traditional and much loved cookie a softness with a touch of crunch. Lemon zest tempers the sweetness of the sugar (nothing tempers a grandma’s sweetness!).

Polentine
Made of corn flour, then rolled with raspberry jam for a crispy and slightly sweet treat. One of our most popular gluten-free delights, this traditional Tuscan recipe is naturally gluten-free because the cookie is made with polenta rather than wheat.

Reginette
Our gluten-free version of our popular sesame and lemon flavored Regina has a rich, buttery flavor and crunchy texture.

Amaretti
Amaretti are delicious, chewy almond macaroons made without flour. We use fresh almonds, almond and macaroon paste and almond extract to give our amaretti a full and complex almond flavor. Legend has it that a bishop from Milan paid a visit to the town of Saronno in Lombardy where a young couple presented him with some of their homemade almond macaroons. The bishop was so taken with the flavor of the cookies that he blessed the couple with a happy marriage and the cookies became a local favorite.

Raspberry Linzer Cookies
Gluten-free flour and butter batter combines with fresh lemon peel for brightness and extracts of vanilla and almond for their mellowing qualities.
After a light dusting of confectioners sugar, we add a dollop of raspberry jelly for a festive, slightly tart treat that is traditional for special events such as birthdays, weddings and Christmas.

Wedding
Every country has their own version of the wedding cookie. Our melt-in-your-mouth Wedding Cookies are unquestionably Italian with their lemon zest. But we’ve made the flavor more delicate by using fresh ground pecans rather than almonds in the shortbread.
When the cookies come out of the oven, we dust them with confectioners sugar making them as white as a bride’s dress and as light as her step towards her beloved.

Cuccidati
Our gluten-free Cuccidati are tender butter cookies filled with figs, dates, raisins and chocolate chips. We love Cuccidati cookies so much that we made this gluten-free version so that everyone can enjoy them.
These cookies hail from Sicily where virtually every family has a fig tree in the backyard and winter evenings are spent by the fire enjoying seasonal dried fruits and nuts.

If I had to pick my favorite from the assortment, it would have to be the Raspberry Linzer Cookies. They have a “thumbprint” filled with raspberry filling that is soooo good. I also loved the Wedding Cookies. Whatever your favorite may be, you can be assured of a quality gluten free cookie with an amazing taste. Amore! Love!

To see more about these wonderful cookies and check the ingredients, see the Cookies Con Amore website.
