$10 Off $30 Order For New Customers at iHerb, Plus Free Shipping
Posted by: | CommentsIt appears that many of you are receiving $10 off (instead of the normal $5 off), if you are a new customer who spends at least $30 at iHerb! That makes a great deal even better, huh?
One reader, Marie, put eight bags of Enjoy Life Soy Free, Dairy Free Chocolate Chips in her cart, entered my referral code (BID487), and received $10 off, making her order just $24.08, or $3.01 per bag of chocolate chips. Such a great deal for these! (Shipping is free on all orders over $20.)
If you don’t need or want chocolate chips, you can find many other great, organic products at iHerb that will benefit you and your family (maple syrup, coconut flour, gluten free foods, dried fruit…)
This “$10 off” offer is only good through May 22. Thanks to all who commented or emailed to let me know about this!

Strawberry Coconut Smoothies from Deliciously Organic
Posted by: | CommentsRemember how I told you that I can open the new Deliciously Organic cookbook I received recently, and that I can make just about any recipe in it, since each one calls for the healthy ingredients I typically use and have on hand? Wow, have I been having fun. I love reading (and drooling over) these simple, yet tasty recipes that are full of such nourishing foods.
During the next week, I’ll be sharing some of our experiences from our Deliciously Organic taste-testing. I can’t share the recipes with you because they aren’t mine to share. But remember, author Carrie Vitt has put together some very generous deals for you so that you can get your own copy of this great cookbook for a big discount!
Yesterday, we quickly whipped up her Strawberry Coconut Smoothies to go with our lunch.
The coconut milk in these made this treat so creamy and refreshing. It was only slightly “coconutty” - just right. The kids devoured it, and I suppose it goes without saying that Matt and I did too. ;)
What we’re planning to make next is still up for vote. Our ten year old, Elias, has been pouring over the book, as he often does when he gets his hands on a cookbook with awesome food pictures. Can I again just say how nice it is that I don’t have to look at the recipe and tell him, “No, we can’t make that. It uses too many unhealthy ingredients and I’m not sure how to adapt that one.” Instead, I can look at each recipe he points to and give him a thumbs up.
Now to just find the time to make every single recipe in the book as the kids pick them out… :)
Deliciously Organic – a Cookbook I am SO Excited About!
Posted by: | CommentsThe cookbook (and deal) I am about to tell you about makes me very, very excited!
You all know how I cook, right? I use basic, real food ingredients. I don’t make anything fancy. I bake with real butter and coconut oil. I grind my own wheat to make flour. I use unprocessed sugars.
Carrie Vitt, of Deliciously Organic, cooks just like I do. Never, since we began our healthy eating journey, have I been able to pick up a cookbook and make a recipe from it without exchanging ingredients and adapting it in some way. But with Carrie’s cookbook, Delicously Organic, I can do just that!
As I turned the pages of this book (full of beautiful pictures!), I was so amazed that could hardly sit still. I could make just about any of these recipes without going to the store – her recipes call for ingredients I always have on hand! (maple syrup, heavy cream, oats, frozen berries, flaxseeds, nuts…) She buys her meat like I do, she uses farm fresh eggs. Without a doubt, Carrie Vitt and I speak the same kitchen language. I love her cookbook!
In addition to having a wonderful cookbook, on her website, Carrie also offers meal plans that help answer the never-ending (and sometimes mind numbing) question, “What’s for dinner?” Her meal plans include 5 complete meals for the week, a few desserts, a snack or two, and a comprehensive, itemized grocery list to make shopping easy and convenient. Click here for more details on the Meal Plans and an example. Be sure to pay close attention to Carrie’s Menu rules, each week that she posts a new menu, the oldest menu rolls back into her archive and is no longer available to the public, so be sure to print them as they come available!

And now the very exciting deal that Carrie has put together for you:
From now until May 17th at Midnight PST, Heavenly Homemaker readers can choose from 2 options listed below. Just click on the link to access your special deal:
1) Her fabulous cookbook, Deliciously Organic, with 5 weeks worth of archived menus (no longer available to the public) for just $25 + shipping (regularly $37.87 + shipping)
2) 3 months of weekly meal plan access (Choose 1 Menu–Classic, Gluten-free, or Grain-free) for only $10.00 (regularly $9.99 per month or $29.97 for 3 months)
I’d love to see you take advantage of this deal. You will love having this cookbook on your shelf – and Carrie’s menu plans are super helpful!

20% off Vanilla Beans at Olive Nation
Posted by: | Comments
You may have seen this update on last weekend’s Healthy Deals post, but just in case, I wanted to be sure you noticed that Olive Nation is offering free shipping plus 20% off their Vanilla Beans through Monday, May 7. That’s a wonderful price break, making this a great time to invest and start making homemade vanilla extract!
We have vanilla beans on hand and are planning to start a new batch of vanilla this week – but with this deal, I’m definitely thinking we’ll stock up on more beans!
Use the code VB20 at checkout to receive the 20% discount. Free shipping should be automatic with this order.
Muscovado Sugar
Posted by: | CommentsMuscovado isn’t a sugar I’ve talked about much here, mainly because I’ve had a hard time finding a good source for a good price. We use it sparingly at our house for these reasons. Our favorite way to use muscovado sugar is sprinkled onto a homemade tortilla with melted butter. SO good!
Muscovado acts much like brown sugar, but is processed in a way that keeps a high mineral content. I trust Muscovado Sugar to be a good choice for my family and was very excited to find it when I was shopping at iHerb this week! It is 30% off right now, and can be purchased for only $2.31 a pound - a fantastic price!!!
You’ll receive free shipping at iHerb if your order is at least $20. And, if you are a new customer and use my referral code, BID487, you’ll receive an additional $5 off.
The more I look around at iHerb, the more I like it. I’ll keep poking around to see what other goodies I find to tell you about.
Have you used Muscovado Sugar before? What are your favorite ways to use it?
Free Shipping at MadeOn Hard Lotion
Posted by: | Comments
My very favorite skin product (on the face of the earth!) can be purchased with free shipping - today only (May 4) - through 8 p.m. MST. Once I saw this promotion, I took advantage and re-stocked my supply. I cannot be without my BeeSilk Lotion Bar!
I promise you, no other lotion has ever worked for me the way MadeOn Hard Lotion has worked for me. Ever since I can remember, I have had dry, cracked, and bleeding hands – year round. Once I started using MadeOn Lotion Bar, the problem went away almost immediately. As long as I use it faithfully, my hands are soft and smooth. I can’t say enough good about this product.
It is made with only three ingredients – all of which I trust to be safe and pure to put on our skin. My favorite is the BeeSilk Lotion Bar, but all of the products are wonderful. If you’re looking for a fun and inexpensive Mother’s Day gift that you can make for several women in your life – be sure to check out the MadeOn DIY Kits. We’ve made these before and have had so much fun!

Nutiva Organic Coconut Oil – Two 15 Ounce Tubs for $13.52
Posted by: | Comments
I would have waited until Friday night when I share my “Healthy Deals” post to tell you about this deal, but I often find that if I see a good coconut oil deal at Amazon, it doesn’t last long!
Right now, you can get two 15 ounce tubs of Nutiva Coconut Oil for just $13.52 at Amazon with subscribe and save. This makes each tub just $6.76 with free shipping.
This coconut oil is organic and very high quality. Since this is extra virgin coconut oil, it does have mild coconut flavor. Great stuff!
Drink Bands Party Packs Are Available!
Posted by: | CommentsWe continue to love and use our DrinkBands daily around here. What a great way to cut down on dirty dishes, especially when we have extra kids around.
Recently, DrinkBands has added a new set to their line - the Party Pack! They are fun, multicolored bands that my kids think are super cool.

What else is new at DrinkBands? They’ve added a red band to their regular set of bands. Because I am from Nebraska, I would say that Husker fans will really appreciate this addition. :)
As always, DrinkBands offers free shipping in the U.S. And, right now, you can get a $1.00 discount off the new Party Packs when you enter the code partypack. This offer is good through April 30, 2012.
