First Look
Second Look
I wasn't thrilled when I saw the coconut chips. I was a bit worried about the box.
I could only find these for sale on Love with Food's website, but it didn't state how many bags you would receive. These are chocolate, light, crispy, Italian waffle cookies. Did I mention they are under 100 calories?
New World Caveman Cookies 78 cents each ($1.56 total)
These are part of the paleo diet. These are made with pumpkin seeds and maple syrup. I am not a big fan of pumpkin, but these were pretty good.
I have received these in my Taste Trunk. They are really good and are already gone.
Coupons $4.99 value for free entree
I received 3 coupons:
*1 Free Lean Cuisine Honestly Good Entree ($4.99 value)
*$1.00 off 2 Happysqueeze products
* 15% off gleeglum.com
Whole Box
Final Thought The total value for this box is $17.57. This wasn't my favorite Love with Food box, but it wasn't bad either. I like the chocolate waffle chips and the kind bar the best. My kids liked the pouch and candy. My husband liked the caveman cookies and gum. It's fun to have a box that the whole family can enjoy.

Ipsy is a fun little subscription. It's only $10.00 a month and you get an assortment of samples and full size beauty products. One of my favorite things about Ipsy, is everything comes in a cute beauty bag. This month's theme was the Art of Beauty.
I love this product. It moisturizes so deeply and leaves my skin silky smooth. I am going to buy this in the full size ($36.00). This is a big hit with other too. It is rated a 4.8 out of 5 on the H2O website with 83 reviews.
This is my first Zoya nail polish. I have been wanting to try them for awhile. This is a big flashy for my finger nails, so I am going to use it for a pedicure.
I am not thrilled with this product. I straighten my hair and I am not sure I will use this. Maybe I will curl my hair one day and use it.
The Bag
I like the colors of the bag this month, but the phrase on it is different
The Whole Bag
Final Thought The total value for my bag this month is $35.20! I loved Ipsy this month. The H20 cream is amazing and I love having full size products of the lip gloss and nail polish. Ipsy is such a fun subscription. If you love make up, give Ipsy a try. If you would like to sign up for Ipsy, click HERE

Citrus Lane changed up their boxes this month. There normal yellow stripe has turned pink for Breast Cancer Awareness month. Citrus Lane also made some pink “bowstaches” for kids to wear. They are pink for Breast Cancer Awareness month and they are mustaches for Men's Health Awareness month in November. You can take a picture of your child in the “bowstaches” and post them to Citrus Lane's Facebook page.
This is rated for 24 months and up. Even thought T is only 19 months, I think he is close enough to enjoy this. I would rather have a toy too old, than too young
L gets a few magazines, but I haven't seen any for T. This is rated for 6 months to 3 years. It is made with sturdy pages, that will be hard to rip. It has stories and other fun things inside.
These are advertised as a healthier chip. I am not a fan but L likes them. I will let T try them, and see what he things. They have a sweet flavor when you first eat them.
Whole Box
Final Thought This was one of the best months of Citrus Lane. The total value for this box was $35.41. This is a pretty nice value, considering the box cost $25.00. T is going to love the water bugs and the boat whistle. If you want to try Citrus Lane, click here and use the code TAKEHALF to take 50% off your first box.

My Firefly Paint Jar
There was another project idea in the Explore magazine, to make a firefly paint jar. This looks really fun.

Cesar
L names his glowworm Cesar. He slept with him last night too. Great Craft

Sample Instructions
Assembly
The jelly fish racers were a bit hard to do, but L stuck with it and had fun.
Finished
To race, each person pulls the strings away from each other, and the jelly fish goes up. The person who gets to the top first wins. L won 3 out of 4 races (Fair and Square)

The Citrus Lane boxes looked a bit different this month. Instead of the normal yellow band, there was a pink band for Breast Cancer Awareness month. Citrus made little “bowstaches” for you child to wear. They are pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month and the mustache is for Men's Health Awareness month in November. You can go to Citrus Lane‘s Facebook page and upload a picture of your child and their “bowstache”. This box is for a 4 year old boy.
My son has the Cloud B turtle, and he loves it. L was very excited to see this Octopus. He slept with this tonight. This is a nice travel size and will be going with us for future trips. This would make a nice night light too. I also like it has a big value
L currently gets a couple of magazines, but we don't subscribe to this. Ladybug is a part of cricket. This magazine has little stories, poems and activities. This looks cute and reminds me of Highlights.
This is my son's favorite item of the box. I have seen this brand on Amazon before, and almost bought it. My son loves harmonicas and playing music. This has been played with ALL DAY.
The Whole Box
Final Thought: The total value for this box was $31.90. The value isn't huge but my son adored this box. His face truly lit up when he saw everything in it. The fact that I got more value than the $25.00 is a nice bonus. The October Citrus Lane was a great hit with my son.
