I was sent Snuggle-Pedic pillows for my review. All opinions are my own. A few years ago I got a bamboo shirt for the first time. It was my first time seeing something bamboo that wasn't wood, so I was amazed at how soft it felt. Since then I have been a big fan of bamboo in bedding, clothing and so on.

Thank you to Carmel Industries for providing me with products to facilitate my blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. We have a new fad taking over our area...rock painting. Yep, you read that correctly. People of all ages, in our community, are participating. It is really as easy as it sounds..find a rock, paint it and then hide it in a public area for others to find. Some people leave information on the back of the rock such as a link to our local Facebook rock painting page, words of encouragement, Read more [...]
