Twee Poppets: Back in Action!





Hello, everyone!

I am pleased to announce that Twee Poppets Review and Giveaway is officially back in working condition, greased and oiled and ready to go!

A few years back, I had to suddenly put my blogging on hiatus and Twee Poppets was set aside for a while. I spent the next couple of years managing my own classroom as the lead preschool teacher at a local childcare facility, where -- let me tell you -- I had plenty of opportunity to really zero in on which products kids can't get enough of, and which make the most valuable tools for care providers. I've also spent some time working in a store specializing in health foods and other natural products, and have picked up such a valuable base of information about the healthiest, safest choices for the whole family. Now I'm at a point again where I'm ready and rearing to dive headfirst back into that crazy, lovely blogosphere. Bring it on.

I want to make Twee Poppets more fun than ever before (what can I say, I aim to please), so I'm aiming to expand its contents a bit this time around. The primary focus will still be reviews and giveaways of products tailored toward babies, children, parents, caregivers, homemakers, and families -- but I'd also like to include posts about some of the other things in which I've recently taken a interest.

In addition to Twee Poppets' regularly featured reviews and giveaways, you should be sure to keep an eye out for new posts regarding:

  • Cooking -- I'll admit to having been guilty of clogging my Facebook newsfeed with pictures of my dinner. Yeah, I know, I'm one of those. You can expect to see the occasional recipe, plus photos and tips.
  • Clean eating -- Definitely growing increasingly aware of what I put in my body as I head further and further through my twenties! In my household, we try to shoot for maybe 75% organic (depending on budgetary constraints), eat mostly whole foods, and take our multivitamins, fish oil, and probiotics like champs. But mannnn, it's expensive to stay healthy, you guys! I'll try to offer tips on how to do it on a budget -- and I hope you'll all be able to chime in, too, because I certainly don't have that one down to a science yet. Ha.
  • DIY nontoxic, "green" products  -- In keeping with the theme, I'm also being more careful of what I put on my body. Many household products can be full of harmful chemicals and carcinogens; organic and eco-friendly options exist, but often cost an arm and a leg. Thank goodness I've finally discovered how simple it is to make completely natural cleaning supplies and personal hygiene products that are are safe and gentle, smell spectacular, cost next to nothing to make, and are just as effective as their commercial counterparts.  I got my first set of twenty essential oils a while back and swiftly transitioned to mad scientist mode.

  •  Fun, etc.! -- I'll be including all manner of other entertaining posts as well. Crafts, tutorials, songs, photos, discussions, you name it. Stay tuned to see what pops up!


    Oh, and did I mention...?
  • A twee little poppet of my very own! -- That's right! My partner, David, and I are expecting our first baby in just a few short months!

This was our (very geeky) pregnancy announcement. We couldn't possibly be happier or more excited! We are planning a home birth with midwives we absolutely adore, and are looking so forward to diving headfirst into the wonderful world of sleepless nights, breastfeeding, co-sleeping, babywearing, cloth diapering (with a side of elimination communication!), baby-led weaning, natural baby care, and all things attachment parenting. You can definitely expect a fair bit of posting about our sweet little one and our brand new journey into parenting. Can't wait!

Now, I guess all this places me somewhere along the lines of crunchy granola hippie lady. Hey, I've come to terms with it. Of course, that's not to say that every item I review will be green, but I'm really quite excited to share more about the all the cool natural products I run across, so stop by and join in the discussion!

Reviews, giveaways, and general tomfoolery shall recommence as of now! Tuesday Tag-Along, my weekly blog hop, will also be up and running again, starting in time for this Tuesday. Blog hops are a great way to discover new bloggers and increase your own blog's readership, so I hope everyone will join us once again.
