Aroma Foundry sells a very popular line of 100% pure and all natural essential oils. I had the opportunity to try out some of these amazing oils and am quite impressed! My favorite is the 100% Pre Lavender Essential Oil! It smells just like lavender and I love that I can have it handy when I travel or it is the perfect size to have on the night table!

Aroma Foundry has a wide variety of different oils available. I also really like the Peppermint because it great to use around the house. So, if you are looking for essential oils, check them out at https://www.aromafoundry.com/

The year was 2015 and Oregon “mompreneurs” Taya Geiger and Leah Tutin were in the “Shark Tank” to pitch Scratch & Grain Baking Company, their highly innovative line of baking kits featuring individually-packaged and measured gourmet ingredients with such easy-to-use numbered and color coding, even children could feel like pastry chefs. Passing acquaintances before starting their business, the two women were now firmly united in the pursuit of two equally daunting but decidedly thrilling goals: to walk out of the Tank with a Shark in their corner, and to parlay their extraordinary television debut into a brand that would at long last redefine the baking mix category and make homemade baking for the entire family easier, tastier and healthier than ever before.

As fans of “Shark Tank” and Scratch & Grain know well, Taya and Leah not only struck a deal with Barbara Corcoran (entailing a $150K line of credit for 20% equity) and were later featured on “Beyond The Tank,” but have indeed taken their all-natural and organic line of cookie, brownie, cupcake, cornbread, muffin and pumpkin kits to amazing heights in little more than two short years. Today, in fact, what began with two baking-challenged Moms asking the question that’s led to so many entrepreneurial breakthroughs over time – “Couldn’t we do this better?” – is now a beloved, rapidly-growing brand sold online as well as in more 5,000 stores nationwide.

As Taya (who now runs the company on her own as CEO) recalled recently, “Being a lifelong foodie, I had very high standards for everything we ate and served our kids. We thought that each dish or dessert should be amazing and have a true ‘wow!’ factor. If we couldn’t get a reaction along the lines of ‘that’s the BEST chocolate chip cookie I’ve ever had,’ then it wasn’t good enough for us. Fortunately, Barbara Corcoran supported our vision, and I’ll be forever grateful to her, the entire ‘Shark Tank’ team and all of the loyal consumers who’ve taken us so far so fast.”

Home Baking Redefined                                                                                                                                                 

Like Taya, many Moms and home cooks without the time, patience or skill required to bake from scratch relied for years on baking mixes that were bland at best and unhealthy at worst. Launched before meal kits became a $1.5 billion industry in 2016, Scratch & Grain almost overnight redefined the baking kit category by empowering virtually anyone with an oven to experience the fun and mouth-watering satisfaction of creating their favorite baked goods like seasoned pros. Better yet, since its inception, Scratch & Grain has been helping everyone from kids to parents to grandparents share old-fashioned quality family time together and temporarily escape the impersonal lure of TV sets and cell phones perhaps for the first time in years.

Mixing Up Healthy & Delicious As Never Before!

Featuring easy-to-use numbered, color coded, clearly-labeled and individually packaged wholesome ingredients, Scratch & Grain products enable consumers to not only enjoy the timeless pleasures of baking from scratch but to create their very own recipe variations – an option not available with traditional one-mix-fits-all kits.

Scratch & Grain products include Shark Tank Special Packs; Cookie Kits (including such irresistible flavors as Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Raisin, Classic Sugar, Gluten-Free Snicker Doodle and Gluten-Free Chocolate Truffle); Cupcake Kits; Brownie Kits;Muffin Kits; Cornbread Kits; Cupcake Kits and Pumpkin Bar Kits. Just add such staples as butter and eggs and you’re practically ready to open your very own bake shop!

Moreover, unlike standard baking mix kits that are often repositories of unhealthy, chemical-laden ingredients, Scratch & Grain products are all-natural, completely non-GMO, and Certified Kosher, with most also USDA Certified Organic and several gluten-free as well.

Competitively priced, Scratch and Grain kits cost between $5.50 and $8.50, with combo packs containing three, four, or six kits available for $17.99 to $49.99. In addition to large chain and independent grocery stores across the country such as Target, Safeway/Albertsons, Publix, and Whole Foods (with an additional 2,000 or more expected to carry the brand by the end of this year), Scratch & Grain kits can be purchased on the www.scratchandgrain.comsite or on Amazon.com.

Now here’s the real scoop on what I think! I love these pre-packaged kits! My favorite is the Chocolate Chip but also the Cornbread Kit was a big hit with my family!

I like that the cookies were not too sweet and I love that they are so easy for kids to bake! There is not much measuring and very limited items are needed. The only items that may be needed are ingredients such as milk, butter, eggs….things that you typically have on hand.

I highly recommend trying! Find them at www.scratchandgrain.com!

If you have a child who loves fairies, here’s a great idea for a birthday cake: decorate it with fairy figurines and accessories from the Flower Fairies Secret Garden Collection, a collectible set of child-friendly miniature gardening decorations based on the Flower Fairies books written and illustrated by Cicely Mary Barker nearly a century ago.

This would also make a really cute decoration for potted plants and flowers. Also, if you have a child who loves Fairies, this is also a great set to play with! But, this isn’t just for kids! Adults will love using this cute set in their gardening! The Floer Fairies in the Secret Garden Collection include Daisy, Buttercup, Rose, Apple Blossom, Strawberry, Scilla, Mulberry and Lavender. Each figurine replicates its namesake from Barker’s illustrations, down to the leaves and plants in which the fairy is dressed. Retails $5.50-$19.99.

Looking for sturdy and stylish jars? I recommend Infinity Jars! I really like how sturdy they are and that they look modern and stylish! Infinity Jars sells a very popular line of high-performance storage containers for cooking ingredients, dried herbs, bitters, tea, coffee, cosmetics, nuts, oils, etc. They are airtight and light optimized, meaning they block out visible light that degrades organic goods.

I like that I could find ways to use them in the Kitchen and in the Bathroom! I love using the 250 ml Glass Screw Top Jar in the kitchen for olive oil. I like that the oil stays fresh and it is super easy to use! The 50 ml Glass Fine Mist Spray Bottle is great to have on the counter in the bathroom to use to mist your face with water in the summer! But, my favorite is the 250 ml Glass Screw Top Jar! I love to use this in the bathroom and keep cotton balls in it!
