I have an extensive selection of fragrances. My hubby thought it that would be great if I would feature them on Bubbling with Elegance and Grace.
The goal is to feature a fragrance every other week or discussing fragrance notes and healthy alternatives.
Fragrance has been an enjoyment to wear since I was a little child. My baby books have selections of my mother writing about how I enjoy sweet smelling fragrances.
The funniest thing is that even though I enjoy fragrance, if I have cold symptoms I cannot tolerate the smell at all.
However, as soon as I am feeling better my senses will accept me wearing fragrance again.
Now onto the other side of the coin. What if you are sensitive to fragrance, what are good alternatives for you? I want to really focus on a post about this as well.
I have to be selective about what I wear because sometimes the fragrance may not last long on me or it may be to strong for my senses. I cannot wear every fragrance on the market.
Happy New Year! I can’t believe that 2015 is here already. Weren’t we just talking about 2014? I pray that 2015 will be the greatest year in your life.
For me, a good night’s rest is essential to having a good day. But in order for a good night’s rest to occur, you have a high-quality pillow.
The FORM-FIT Pillow was sent to Bubbling with Elegance and Grace for a review and we both were anxious to try it out.
My hubby and I each sleep with two pillows to get a comfort spot. It is interesting in seeing how much comfort and ergonomic relief the pillow would actually give for a good night’s sleep.

The pillow unzips and inside is a what they call a unique flowable filling:
100% Natural Buckwheat hulls mixed with soft foam
Buckwheat and foam filling
Light, comfortable,, shapeable, breathable, non allergenic
Natural tannins in hulls are anti-microbial and Dust mite resistant (this was awesome to me that this pillow is dust mite resistant)
Light and bulky, triple cleaned, dust-free hulls sourced from North American Farmers
Natural soybean oil-based foam, made in the USA
The pillow ships overstuffed and comes with a cup and bag for you to remove the filling to customize it as you see fit. The pillow fits any standard pillow case and is machine washable. The video below gives a brief overview of the Form-Fit pillow.
One benefit stands out is how the pillow gives me neck alignment and doesn’t deflate. Once I mold the pillow the way I want it stays that way all night long.

Another bonus is the easily understandable directions that are included in the packaging with the pillow that explain how to remove the filling, setting and adjusting the pillow, sleep posture and adjustment period.
It is great that this pillow can work for anyone. My hubby and I both tried the pillow and could immediately tell a difference with the way that our necks left. rr
There’s also a Limited Warranty for 10 years from date of purchase to be free from defects in material and workmanship.
The pillow retails for $60.00 and is worth every penny for a good-night’s sleep. A pillow is a personal commitment so I can only speak from my personal experience of how good I think this pillow really is.

It’s New Year’s Eve and enjoying the evening with my hubby. We are having Chinese Vegetable stir fry and pot stickers. With a meal like this, what a great way to try out the Ozeri Savore Soft Touch Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder that Bubbling With Elegance was gifted to try out and review. The product will be available on Amazon January 5, 2015.
Ozeeri Electric Pepper Grinder
The Grinder takes a little elbow grease to take the top off. However, once we figured that out, it has worked easier and better. The grinder is constructed with a front-side adjustable certamic grinding switch. The battery-powered motor offers an effortless push button dispenser for pepper, sea salt or any of your favorite spices. The Ozeri Savore Electric Pepper Grinder features a small, but ergonomic design.
Benefits
Durable ceramic motor easily grinds peppercorns, salts and spices. The grinding selections are fine, medium and coarse, as seen below.
Left to Right: Fine, Medium and Course Grindings
-Seasons food accurately with a new front-side adjustable ceramic grinding mechanism that never requires inverting
-Features an ultra soft textured non-slip grip with finger-print resisting coating
-Activates via a large push-down button that instantly grinds and releases seasonings
-See-through container makes monitoring pepper level easy and reveals the grinding action
How does the Grinder operate? — The grinder runs on 6 AAA batteries, which are not included. We were surprised it took so many batteries, but we are sure that they will last a long time.
— Select the level of grinding that meets your needs. Slide the notch on the front of the grinder, from left to right for your desired level. A fine grinding is the far-left setting. Medium grinding is in the middle, and the course grinding is at the far-right.
— Push the button on the top of the grinder to dispense your seasoning. The seasoning is released at a slow, but correct speed. Not too much comes at one time, which is necessary if you only need a small amount. The amount of seasoning that is released can be easily controlled.
— Enjoy the aroma of your freshly-ground seasonings in your food.
Overall, we recommend the Ozeri Savore Electric Pepper Grinder. The grinder is small in size, but big in its grinding power. With the slide of the notch, the grinding intensity can easily be changed. The grinder fits well in your hand and with the push of a button, the spices are efficiently dispensed.

Feeling good from the inside out? This really should be a lifestyle and not only used as a marketing ploy at the beginning of the year. Eating in moderation, exercise, getting adequate amount of sleep and leaving the stress at the door all play in important role healthy living. Bubbling with Elegance and Grace recently had the opportunity to review a bottle of the Quality Encapsulations OMEGA 3 Fish Oil dietary supplement. The bottle of highly-concentrated and triple-strength 60 softgels are manufactured in the USA. That is a bonus!!
The instructions say to take two capsules a day, however I took one a day. You do not want to exceed the recommended dosage.
You can purchase the Omega Fish Oil softgels on Amazon. There are over 1,100 review with almost all five-star recommendations. I would recommend this product because adding a high-quality supplement to your diet can be benefit to your overall health.
Benefits of the product
— The soft gels are easy to swallow.
— No after taste.
— Can help support healthy heart, brain, joints, vision, skin, and cardiovascular health.
From my own honest opinion, I didn’t have a fishy aftertaste in my mouth and the soft gels were easy to swallow.
On the back of the bottle, the manufacturer recommends:
“Do not exceed the recommended dose. Pregnant or nursing mothers, children, children under the age of 18, and individuals with a known medical condition should consult a physician before using this or any dietary supplement.”
“Warning: Consult with your physician if you are pregnant or nursing or if you have allergies, use blood thinners or planning to have surgery.”
This is good advice because you never want to take any vitamin or pills before consulting your physician.

I hope you are enjoy the Christmas Holiday season!
As many of you know, I am very particular about the products that I use on my hair and skin. I look for all-natural products without any harmful artificial ingredients. If the product has ingredients that I can not pronounce or have been linked to health risks, then I will not use it.
I expanded this philosophy to other products that I bring into my house, whether it be cleaning solutions or paint.
Bubbling with Elegance and Grace was asked if we would be interested in reviewing one of its green frying pans. Seeing that the pan was PTFE and PFOA free, we immediately accepted the invitation and eagerly waited to try it.
Ozeri 8″ Green Frying Pan
After removing the pan from the box, I immediately noticed the first positive feature for the pan — it is feather light. Being made of ceramic, I expected the pan to be heavier. But to my surprise, it was not. The light-weight is great feature for cookware. I don’t want to working with heavy pans on the stove top.
The second positive feature for this pan is the long handle that ergonomically fits in my hand. I use pans of this size with short handles that makes it difficult to grab a hold of. The handles makes it easy to work with, no matter which burner that I am using on the stove.
The third positive feature of this pan is that is that the non-stick surface easy to clean. All you need is a little soap and water and the pan comes clean in a jiffy.
The fourth positive feature for this pan is the main reason why I wanted to initially try it. It is PTFE and PFOA free. My long-term goal is to eliminate potential harmful products out of my house. Before making any cookware purchase, I want to know what type of coating is applied to the pans to make them non-stick. I want to know if this non-stick coating is linked to any health risks.

Tips for using the Ozeri Pan.
1) The ceramic construction of this pan makes it heat efficient. We recommend that you initially lower the burner’s temperature setting so that you can gauge the proper setting. You may not need turn up the burner as high as you are normally do with your other pans.
2) Although this is a non-stick pan, we used a little cooking spray or oil. This will make the clean up even easier than it already is.
If you are looking to add new cookware pieces, I recommend that this pan be in your kitchen. It is light-weight, easy to grip, easy to clean and non-stick without any harmful chemicals.
