So it’s June. Summer is kicking in! I myself am not a “Summer Person” which I have mentioned before. I live in the South, and it’s like 100 in the shade most days. However, being a southern girl I do drink a lot of tea, especially this time of the year. My favorite tea is Luzianne Tea of course! Recently they sent me a couple of boxes to review ,including a box of their regular tea and one box of green tea! Also, June is National Iced Tea month! I never knew that! I have to say that I didn’t even know that they made green tea that you could make up at home. I guess I just never thought about it before! I can remember being about 5 years old, and not living in N.C. for very long(I am from Virginia originally) Up there back in the day tea was really not a popular thing (and I’m not sure if it has really caught on or not, let me just say I’m from way way back in the hills lol) Anyways, I can remember when my mom’s sister came down when one of my cousins was born. We were at the … [Read more...]

“But Wait!!!”
You know on t.v commercials when they are like you get blah blah blah for 19.95 BUT WAIT if you call right now you will get this that and the other extra? That's what my crazy screwed up week was like! After all that stuff I wrote on Friday I was like "ok, there isn't anything left that could go crazy about this week" HA HA RIGHT! Aside from Frank Moron the neighbor, I got a text/call on Saturday about 1:30 that made me sick to my stomach. David just had left to go check this little festival in town out (about 3 min from the house) Of course he didn't take one of the phones with him! I got a text saying that my little cousin jake (he's about 13ish) was being rushed to the emergency room after passing out and hitting the ground. he was unresponsive for quite some time! I was pacing around the house cleaning random stuff and was starting to cramp again, thats how worried I was. Later on, we did find out he was o.k. but they do not know what happened to him! all of his … [Read more...]
Frank Moron, our neighbor
I wanted to get 2 review & my eden ambassador post up like..yesterday. or today. Still haven't managed to do that lol. Maybe tomorrow? I don't know we'll see! I was talking to my neighbor Christina on facebook about the incident that took place yesterday about the dog. I have known her 4 years, and she used to be my next door neighbor and now she's my across neighbor. I told her yesterday about calling Animal control on mr. frank moron... Apparently he was out there yesterday evening talking to his damn self muttering that people around here are too nosey and that when he find outs who called there will be hell to pay. pfft bring it on dumbass! So I ended up going over to christina's house and chilling for a while and talking and such. she said he's been using their waterhose and suff too! I think he's narrowing down who called, or so he thinks. he knows it wasn't hoagies (dog who lives behind us) owner or the lady who lives behind christina. but you know what dumb dumb? … [Read more...]

[review] Carapelli Olive Oil
Olive oil is something that I haven’t used a lot of myself until recently, and I have been guilty of using the blended kind, where it is mostly another type of oil with only a little bit of olive oil blended into it. Which really isn't that great, and at one point, I didn't even realize what I was using! I know that when I was younger my mom would go to Sam’s club or Bj’s warehouse and buy the big containers of olive oil and that it was really expensive, but she would only use it in special things! I always liked the way that it made foods taste however! I recently had the chance to review some Carapelli organic extra virgin olive oil (the site is in italian) and I was really excited about it! I have been wanting to use more olive oil, and this gave me the most awesome opportunity! One thing that I really like about the Carapelli olive oil is that is NATURALLY cholesterol free. I know that my dad has had some problems with his cholesterol , so my mom has been trying to cut him … [Read more...]
