I received products from Radio Flyer for my review. All opinions are my own. For the last two years, we have wanted to build raised garden beds. We've hesitated doing so because our house is for sale and we didn't want to build beds and then have potential buyers not like having them on the property. Instead, we just added it to our growing list of things that we would do at the new house whenever we finally got to move. This year we have a different mindset, which is: we are the current house Read more [...]

I received Chillsner from Corkcicle for my review. All opinions are my own. Last year, I reviewed a Corkcicle. Corkcicle is a new product that allows you to chill your bottle of wine from the inside out. You can read my full Corkcicle Review.    Today, I get to share a new product from Corkcicle that is called the Chillsner. Although Chillsner was designed specifically for beer bottles, it also works well in soda bottles or any other 9” bottled beverages. Chillsner is made with a sturdy Read more [...]

I received product from Natural Area Rugs for my review. All opinions are my own. I love area rugs. I think of area rugs similar to fashion accessories. Adding a great area rug to your room can completely change the look of the room…just like a great statement necklace. Area rugs are an easy way to add a pop of color, layer of texture and/or a playful pattern. Lately, I have been redecorating some of the rooms in my house. I decided it was time to do something about my dining area. We have Read more [...]

I received product from Synergy Organic Clothing for my review. All opinions are my own. Today is a busy day for me. It started off with a lot of work items on my to-do list. I had what I call “work-work” that needed to get done, I had household chores waiting for me, I wanted to spend time home schooling my youngest, and I wanted to spend some time reading a book that I’m trying to finish in a timely manner. It was going to be one of those days where I bounced from task to task. I knew Read more [...]

Kohl’s provided me with Kohl’s Gifts for my review. All opinions are my own. For the last 4+ years, our house has been on and off the market. We have had a few showings and some open houses to try to find the right buyers. We usually hear the same comment from potential buyers, they like the house, but aren’t real sure about the location. Location, location, location! I obviously can’t change the location of our house. What I can do, is make the house and yard so darn cute, that the Read more [...]

IMAGE Skincare products are fragranced with 100% essential oils. They offer six skincare collections for you to choose from: Prevention +, Ageless, The Max, Vital C, Ormedic and Read more [...]

I received ChapStick products from Pfizer Consumer Healthcare for my review. All opinions are my own. Boy, this winter has had some CRAZY weather! Thankfully, I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.  In Oregon, we have actually had an unusually dry winter. Don’t quote me on this, but I think I heard that we have only received about 1/3 of our normal rain. This may be but we have had two really good snow storms which is not common for our area. The first brought about 10 inches Read more [...]

I received product from Personal Microderm for my review. All opinions are my own. About a year ago, I received a Personal Microderm tool. I love it and still use it often. My mom mentioned she wanted to try a Personal Microderm device to see if it would help even her skin tone and texture. I was jazzed when Personal Microderm was willing to send her a tool for her review. The following are my mom’s words. Over the years, I've used several microdermabrasion products such as creams, buffing Read more [...]

I received products from Robot Luv for my review. All opinions are my own. Right now, my two daughters and I are on a graphic T-Shirt kick. Graphic T-Shirts can add personality to an outfit that might be a little drab. Graphic T-Shirts are versatile in that they can be worn with just about anything- jeans, skirts, shorts and more. They can be worn casual or even dressed-up a bit. When I was asked to review T-Shirts from Robot Luv, I knew my daughters would love their playful designs. Robot Read more [...]

I received product from Jennie-O for my review. All opinions are my own. About a year and a half ago, I began making changes in my life so that I could live healthier and happier. I was morbidly obese (BMI standards) and was really depressed. It saddened me to be so miserable when I had so many blessings in my life. Some of the changes I made were small and others were more drastic. Together these changes lead to me loosing over 50 pounds and gaining a whole new perspective on life. I am not the Read more [...]
