Plow and Hearth has some fun food items! Like the Peppermint Pig! Holiday good luck & health begins with a peppermint pig. The first Peppermint Pig was made over a century ago to symbolize the Victorian belief in the pig as a good luck charm. Your family can continue this tradition with our genuine Peppermint Pig, which comes with its own velvet pouch and hammer. After a special holiday meal, bring out the pig, crack it with the hammer, and share the pieces to assure health, happiness, and prosperity. My family had fun reviewing this pig and loved the peppermint flavor!We also got to try the Sweet, Spicy Gingersnap Cookies! I was excited to find out they are made in Sweden and yum! We really enjoyed these as well! These wafer-thin, spicy-sweet Nyakers Gingersnaps are made in Sweden the old-fashioned way, from a secret family recipe. They get their name from the "snap" they make when you bite into them. 23.8 oz. packed in a red gift tin. From Sweden.
Thanks to Plow & Hearth we also got to review their Cashew Tower! We love cashews and all of these are really yummy! I think my favorite out of the three was the chocolate covered cashews! These are perfect for the holidays and great to put out and share for the New Year!

ust vacuum like you normally would!The New Oreck Halo uses UV-C light to kill many of the germs that could be on your floors, while you vacuum. So that you and your family can enjoy a healthier clean.
The new Oreck Halo is a revolution in vacuum cleaner technology. Incredible suction vacuums dirt and debris, while the patented Oreck Halo light chamber kills many microscopic germs, bacteria, viruses, mold, dust mite eggs, and flea eggs using UV-C light. And like all Oreck products, it’s remarkably simple to use – just vacuum as you normally would, and the Oreck Halo kills and reduces microorganisms without any extra effort or harsh chemicals.
Every time we enter our homes, we can track in germs and bacteria from outside. Think about coming home from work, or the kids as they enter the house, dirty from playing outside. Where have their shoes been? Public bathrooms? What have they stepped in? What about the dog digging in the dirt or trash? It’s easy for germs to get on your floors. Dust mite eggs, flea eggs, mold, bacteria, germs, and other microorganisms could be living there, too. But the new Oreck Halo with germ-killing UV-C light can help rid many of them from your floors - easily.
With the New Oreck Halo, you are vacuuming and killing many of the germs on your carpets and floors at the same time. No extra effort. No extra time. Just vacuum like you normally would!
Conventional vacuums likely can’t do the whole job. Even after being cleaned with a conventional vacuum, carpets and floors can still be covered with germs and dust mite eggs. That’s why you need the Oreck Halo to quickly kill many of the germs, dust mite eggs, flea eggs and mold that could be on your floors. And you’ll have piece of mind knowing the Oreck Halo does it all without chemicals – making it safe for you, your family and the environment.
The Oreck Halo effectively reduces the amount of bacteria, germs, and other microorganisms that could be on your carpets and flooring. These petri dish images represent the positive results of repeated exposure to the Oreck Halo light chamber. Over time and with routine cleanings, the Oreck Halo and its UV-C germ-killing light can help reduce dust mite populations by killing many dust mite eggs. It can also help reduce harmful bacteria and viruses on floor surfaces throughout your home.
