Period Starter Kit Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.



I received Period Starter Kit for honest review. The kit came with tampons, a pad, pantiliner, and feminine wipes. You also got a bag for your personal items. Next, I received materials about periods and menstruation. 

I liked the concept of a kit, just in case, aunt flow shows up. I loved the bag and the feminine wipes. The pads and tampons were regular and I could not used them so I gave them to my niece. I can use the bag to put my normal supplies into the bag. 

I definitely would love to see the kit customized for different flows. The kit is made for someone with a regular flow, but maybe create one for someone with a heavier flow. Or create one with menstrual cups. Just some ideas running through my head. 

You can purchase the period kit, using the link above. The kit is not prime-eligible. Took about a week for mine to arrive.

Wounded Women of The Bible Book Review (Kregel Blog Tours)


I read Wounded Women of the Bible: Finding Hope When Life Hurts, in exchange for honest review from Kregel Blog Tours. This post does contain Amazon affiliate links and images. I received a paperback book. The book was written by Dena Dyer and Tina Samples.

My Review:

I chose the book because it had a woman-focus. The book consisted of 13 chapter, discussing different women in the bible. Some of The women included: Abigail, Dinah, Ruth, Hagar, Jochebed, Mary and Martha. Each of the women went through a particular problem, which damaged and wounded them. For example, the first chapter discussed the two women in Solomon's court. The women were prostitutes and they both had babies around the same time. One woman accidently killed her baby, while she was sleep. She rolled on top of her. She panicked and went and stole the other woman baby. She tried to pass the other woman's baby off as her own. The living child's mother took her to court. Solomon said cut the baby in half and give a half to each woman. The true mother said no, let my baby live and give it to the other woman. The true mother got her baby back. The story discusses pain, heartbreak, death, life, and friendship. The story also showed compassion and love. The true mother did not want her baby to die. She was willing to hand her baby over to the other woman, so her baby will life. The two woman was best or close friends before the ordeal, but grief, panic, and lying, changed their dynamics forever. 

Each chapter gives discusses a biblical woman, in addition to providing a relatable story by each of the authors. Each chapter also has discussion questions. The discussion questions are at the end of the book. Great for small group discussion. 

The book is 10.96 on Amazon via paperback.
