So you may have noticed, if you spend much time around the blog or follow me on social media that I have this new found love for meal subscription boxes. Of course I did a review for one a few weeks back, and then I found a code for another, and I have been browsing around and looked at several. One that I found that offered to work with me on a review was Home Chef and I have to say after all my browsing and experience I think I might like it the best of all - I will tell you all about that in my review of course! Right from the get go these are the things I can tell you that set them apart in my opinion:I liked the menu options, I liked how I got to pick what I wanted, I liked that they had fruit as an option and I think that the portions were very fair and I also liked that the prices seemed pretty fair. I had a $50 credit and with everything I got I still have $10 left! Signing up for an account is fairly easy, and they have LOTS of options for you to choose from such as … [Read more...]

Slow Down, Monday!
Hey Everyone Well I cannot believe it is almost 3 already! This day has for real flew by! I had most of my morning ate up trying to help my mom with some CVS deal she was trying to do and her phone won't let her download the app -and it won't download on tablets and - yeah that was fun. I am also fighting another crummy freaking headache! I honestly need to go pop into the shower and wash my hair- and I even need to shave and exfoliate because David wants me to start tanning - he bought me lotion yesterday and everything- I am just hopeful that my package didn't expire because I have had it since LAST feb! I just am on a roll with writing and such and I need to keep that going too.. I can't wait till I can actually hit that part of the spring where I can get up in the mornings lol. David ended up getting me a keyboard for my tablet so that will def. help me out because I used to go cuddle up in bed early in the evenings with my ipad and keyboard when I had that and I did tons … [Read more...]
Review: Good Thins Snacks #ad #sponsored #review #goodthins
In case you aren't a loyal fan of the blog, let me enlighten you on one little tid bit- I absolutely love reviewing food/snack food and my favorites are those that are salty! I am not very much for sweets (even though I do occasionally dork out on some cake or something like that) I also like spicy and tangy things. So when I got a chance to review for Good Thins, I was pretty darn excited- especially since goodness knows I am always on a mission to find some sort of way to cut chips out even though they are my favorite snack- I know the def. aren't the best thing for me at the same time! Hello Good Thins:A healthy way to snack! Good Thins was kind enough to send over a variety box of all 8 of their flavors! Some of them are made with Potatoes, some with Rice and there is even one box made with chickpeas- and more on the way! First up I will give you a little bit more information about the healthy goodness that is Good Thins, and then break all the flavors down. Let me just … [Read more...]
A pretty Saturday
Hey Everyone Well David left around 8 I believe it was for whatever race thingy him and his brother were going to- I don't know they go to it like every year - most of the time it is the last vacation day that David has left and he takes it off and they go on Friday but.. yeah. I figure they won't be back till late this afternoon. I spent last night with the literal headache from hell. I ended up in bed at 8 with Marley laying in the dark - I was nauseous and just plain dying..I ended up feeling a bit better and curling up and watching Gossip Girl for a little while. I had spent the day with a headache /hangover-which was because the wine I drunk the night before even though it was only 3 glasses I didn't realize it was 15.5% alcohol so..yeah lol. Since I have an Extra Day to do whatever I am trying to write up whatever reviews I can- already got one done and by 11 a/m on a saturday so right there- I could stop and be happy lol. I hope to get a few more done if I keep the … [Read more...]
Review: Sterling Vineyards Wines#sponsored #review #ad #sterlingluster
Please make sure you are of legal drinking age in your country before purchasing /enjoying alcoholic beverages. This is a review of Alcoholic Beverages. Please drink responsibly! Another wine review you ask? Of course! There is nothing better than trying different wines in exchange for review! I think it is making me more well rounded wine wise- and maybe a smidge tipsy at the same time- that is why I made a new category to put the wine reviews in "The Tipsy Reviews" I am trying to go back through the blog and add the relevant reviews to that category :) fun times! I especially like a nice cool crisp glass of wine in the evening, especially in the summer ! When one of my wine contacts asked if I would be interested in reviewing 2 selections from Sterling Vineyards I was pretty excited- especially because 1 of the 2 was pretty much the most expensive wine that I have ever got to try- but I'll get there of course! As always I will just break down the flavors and give my … [Read more...]
SITS GIRLS WRITING PROMPT:Share your favorite sandwich recipe(or in my case recipes)
this image is courtesy of the Sits Girls. This post is part of their April Writing Prompts. I like to use the prompts to add a little variety on the blog from time to time. You should check out the Sits Girls & The Writing Prompts - you can visit by simply clicking the above image! Sandwiches are one of my favorite things- but as with most things I am kinda picky about what I like ;) As far as Subs I much prefer what I would call a "Northern" sub. Believe me if you think Subway is the bees knees- which let me tell you it isn't -it is actually the most low rate sub place I think exists(of course that is my opinion) I haven't had a sub as good as the ones up north in YEARS but I hope I get to try one again sometime. In the mean time I have came to like Firehouse Subs (ours uses Dukes Mayo- which in my world is the only mayo) Which Wich- I really like their options and the way that you order - if you didn't know you pick a bag base on meat/etc and then you take a marker and … [Read more...]
