Flaunt It! Monday – Warmables

Hey everyone!

It’s Monday and I have been trying to get back into posting. A slipped disk in my neck has made it hard to use my right hand … whine.. whine.. whine!

Anyway! Monday means review and giveaway not crying about not feeling my hand for nearly a month now right??? So, lets get to it!  I was introduced to a company called Warmables, quite some time ago (yes it’s been a while since I have done a flaunt it!) and they have these nifty carriers that keep your meals warm with cherry pits. Personally, I love this idea since I am not a huge fan of sandwiches and how boring can the same cold stuff for lunch get?? I REALLY wish I had come across this before the economy crashed and my hubby was doing construction!  I can’t tell you how many times he whined about how sick and tired he was of sandwiches and various types of pasta salads. I just didn’t know what to make him that could stay warm until lunch, so I resorted to things that could be kept cold.

Warmables would have been a perfect solution for my husband and meanwhile waste-free, bpa-free and enviro-friendly:

Please know that all Warmables products are made by us (your Warmables team) in a small sewing studio in Jersey City as the orders come in.
Materials are purchased in the USA and Canada only.
We are totally focused on healthier lunches, our economy and environment.
Warmables will not be produced overseas. Instead of cheap production done in China or elsewhere we are offering work for a handful of us, supporting our economy where we can.
Our Warmables lunch systems are delivered as 3 or 4 piece sets (the Warmables pouch, liner, a BPA-free food container and a cherry pit bag) and do not produce any garbage at all.
Warmables pit bag products are made of natural cotton and filled with real cherry pits.
Packaging materials are kept to a bare minimum for environmental reasons.

Yes, cherry pits keep your food hot… or cold since you can also freeze them. I had learned about the rice sock trick when I had my first c-section, but never thought much of cherry pits (Images of the Witches of Eastwick running through my head!). This is a neat little idea and I’m glad to be able to share it with you! Personally, I think the office size (image above) is a better size for everyone to use, the kids size seemed a little small to me, and once it’s all packed together it has a handle for easy carrying.

So, Want a chance to try a warmable?? You know the routine, let’s do it!

    I sometimes have to sleep with a heating pad, but hate that it involves plugging it in. I’d love the Body Warmer Pit Sack, so I can go to sleep holding onto something warm!

    I’d like to try the BPA free, but plastic, container–my daughter’s school won’t allow our glass ones!

    I would love to try the Neck Hugger as well as the Warmables.My daughter and I both suffer from migraines and a warm heating pad on the forehead and neck seems to help. this would be better than a heating pad for the neck because it hugs the neck. Great idea.
