I was sent samples from Haggar. All opinions are my own. Haggar is the #1 selling brand of dress and casual pants in the country. If your dad or your husband dresses up for work, plays golf, or just has special events to attend then Haggar pants would make a great father's day gift. I got Ryan three pair of Haggar pants, all of which are great staples to add to his wardrobe. He needed a pair of simple black dress pants. I opted for the Premium No Iron Khaki in the color black. I like how Read more [...]

Thank you to Longhorn for covering dinner in exchange for review purposes. All opinions belong to myself.  My husband and I are total foodies. Every vacation we have ever taken needs to meet a food requirement of fun new places to dine out. We love trying new food, new twists on old food, best of the foods, as well as adventurous foods. No matter how much we travel and eat I think there will always be place in our hearts for an amazing steakhouse. Steakhouse flavors bring me back to my childhood Read more [...]

I was sent a BroBasket for review. All opinions are my own. The BroBasket is a neat company that is making gift baskets for men. When you hear the word Bro you may think of college-aged guys but while browsing BroBasket I realized their gift baskets would appeal to man of a wide range of ages. Most of the gift baskets include some form of beer or Spirit, and many have snacks or accessories included as well. I love food and drink related gifts because they are something that most anyone can appreciate. It's Read more [...]

I received a variety of Ben 10 Toys from Playmates Toys to facilitate this review.  All opinions are my own. Cartoon Network's beloved series Ben 10 is now even easier to bring into your home for everyday enjoyment with their new line of Ben 10 Toys!  For those who aren't familiar with this 12 year old series, which is Cartoon Network's longest running series to date, Ben Tennyson ends up with a watch-like device that gives the wearer the power to transform into ten different creatures.  When Read more [...]

Thank you to Nutrisystem for providing me with products in exchange for this honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own. My husband and I try to schedule a date night every couple of months. Sometimes we enjoy going out for a meal and other times, we prefer to stay in. For our next date night in, I am going to prepare Nutrisystem's recipe for Ground Turkey and Veggie Curry With Brown Rice. This recipe is perfect for date night; it is full of flavor! Ingredients: ¼ cup onion, chopped 1 Read more [...]

I was sent Matador Beef jerky for review. All opinions are my own. As my dad gets older I find that it's getting harder to find gifts for him. He's still active for his age (70's) but he lives a fairly simple life. There isn't much in the way of entertainment or hobbies that he could really use. He really appreciates good food, so I find myself turning to food more frequently for his gifts. One of my dad's favorite foods is beef jerky. This year I turned to Beef Jerky for his father's day gift. Matador Read more [...]

I received DVDs from Mill Creek Entertainment to facilitate this review.  All opinions are my own.   Work can be stressful, staying home with the kids can get crazy, and life in general is a whirlwind.   Everyone is busy, that's pretty much a given.  However, it's no surprise that watching a favorite show is a popular way to unwind and relax.  Many times over the years, I've turned to Mill Creek Entertainment to help me find great DVDs, some fun classics, and even favorites from Read more [...]
