Smelly Proof Reusable Storage Bags for back to school meal prep

I have had a busy summer and in all of our camping and BBQ’s, I have not been eating well. I go back to work next week and have jumped back on the healthy eating train. I stay motivated to eat better when I am prepared. To meal prep for breakfast smoothies and lunch salads ensures I will eat right. I have always hated the waste of plastic disposable bags. This year I am prepping with Smelly Proof. Their storage bags are reusable and 100% odor-proof, FDA-approved, and eco-conscious.

Food stays moisture free in the dual track zipper and strong oxygen, moisture ad odor barrier. These bags are tough! It is hard to give that effect in pictures, but to feel them and use them, it is easy to tell how solid these bags are for reuse. The large size (about 8×10) even stand on their own making it great for meal prep use!

Beyond the food freshness and eco-conscious features, Smelly Proof bags are BPA, latex and phthalate-free. They are 100% made in the USA with Polyethylene + Nylon. They come in all of the sizes you are used to with disposable bags, including an XL size.

To add, Smelly Proof Reusable Black Flat Bags are available for more than just food. These black bags have a triple track zipper for travel and even outdoor use. Like the clear bags, these tear and puncture-resistant. the black bags are even dishwasher and freezer safe.

Stop tossing plastic and meal prep, travel and store anything in Smelly Proof reusable bags. Visit Smelly Proof today and stock up for back to school.

Colsen eco-friendly fire pits for small and large spaces

August 4, 2023August 4, 2023 Erin Sluka

As summer ends, we don’t have to put the fire pits away! In fact, the weather will get cooler and we will want the warmth of a fire. Colsen has indoor and outdoor fire pits that are large and even table top sizes so you can have a warm, clean-burning fire nearby at all times. You just need the right fire pit for your space and 70%+ isopropyl alcohol.

I have the Indoor/Outdoor Tabletop Fire Pit. I can use my fire pit inside or outside. These fire pits are easy to use and safe as long as you keep it on a flat surface and light and extinguish correctly. My tabletop fire pit came with its own round extinguisher (you do not blow out these fires, so no mess).

I have used my table top fire pit in a few ways. I can just light at a side table and relax indoors. I can add it as outdoor table ambiance while my large fire pit is also burning nearby. I will use it inside during BBQ’s so the large fire pit can burn outside and the ambiance flows inside. This is great for small apartments or even larger spaces for added fire flair! Even on a stormy day outside, your fire can come inside, safely. Visit Colsen Fire Pit to find the fire pit that is right for you.

Three Dental Imperfections That Dental Veneers Can Conceal

August 2, 2023August 2, 2023 Erin Sluka

Your smile is one of the first things people see. If your teeth are less than perfect, you may avoid smiling, which can seem unfriendly. Fortunately, cosmetic dentists based in Bloomfield Hills can help fix flaws and imperfections, giving you a smile to be proud of. Veneers are popular for improving smiles as they can conceal chipped, cracked, stained, discolored, crooked or misshaped teeth.

Cracks or Chips

Dental chips or cracks can happen for a number of different reasons. Getting hit in the face with a ball or a puck while playing a sport, being involved in a bike, motorcycle or car accident and hitting your face, or biting into something hard can all chip or crack a tooth. Chips or cracks on your back teeth are not much to worry about, but they can be visible if they are on your front teeth. Veneers can be placed to conceal the damage.

Staining or Yellowing

Dental whitening products can be used to remove many stains from your teeth. However, not every stain can be lifted, even with professional whitening products. If your teeth are yellowing due to age, discolored due to an injury or tooth bruise, or have a stain that teeth whiteners have been unable to lift or remove, veneers may be the solution. Veneers can be placed on one or more discolored teeth. The veneer is custom-made to match the color of the rest of your teeth, ensuring your teeth now look uniform and free of stains or yellowing.

Small Gaps

Small gaps between your teeth can be corrected with the use of veneers. Veneers are custom-made for you. They can be made slightly larger than the current size of your teeth, which can help to cover up a small gap between your teeth. This helps give the illusion that there are no gaps between your teeth, without the time constraints and costs associated with moving teeth associated with braces or aligners.

Size Differences

Lastly, size differences between your teeth can be solved with veneers. Veneers can be made in any shape or size that you desire. They are then placed solely on teeth that may be smaller or slightly differently shaped than the rest of your teeth. This helps to create the illusion of teeth that are all similar in shape and size.

Veneers can be a good option for those who have minor dental imperfections that they want to hide or conceal. This may include having a chip, crack, stain, yellowing, minor gaps, or size differences. You can get a perfect smile free of flaws thanks to cosmetic dentistry based in Bloomfield Hills If you want to make changes to your teeth and your smile, reach out to a cosmetic dentist for a consultation. They can help you determine which dental procedures or products can help to improve your teeth and give you a smile that will boost your self-confidence and enhance your beauty.
