I never know exactly who is reading the posts- loyal fans or casual readers.. or someone who is popping by for the first time- so I don't know if you know it or not but I do have a severe allergy to peanuts- and minor -major allergies to a lot of other food things.. and it kind of comes in on where people call me a picky eater- because it goes with the old things we didn't eat when I was going to church (pork -for example which I still have no desire to eat) and then things I just don't like and it all mixes together and makes me look picky- which i think to a degree we all are because we might have likes and dislikes and other factors too! So of course when it comes to candy or cookies or anything else around which might contain a peanut I have to throw in the towel. I mean I am so deathly allergic to peanuts 3 of them could kill me. I have benadryl in liquid form I carry around but I am actually considering checking about get one of those devices where it talks you through when … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Fat Hair Hair Products #fathair #review #sponsored #ad
My Holiday Gift Guide isn't all about awesome goodies I am keeping for me, even though I know it seems like I am fairing out pretty well! So when I had a chance to get something to review that I knew my mom would enjoy I decided why not! Now you might remember that I got some awesome hair color to review(seriously thinking about adding some more pink to my hair- it has really grew on me- even though my dad keeps calling it RED?? ) so when I got some more hair goodies to review from Fat Hair I thought about my mom the cosmetologist! She really likes fat hair products because I know I have saw them at her house before, so when I told her I was getting her some she was pretty excited! She actually came and collected them the same day that I received them if I am thinking correctly! I have such naturally curly and thick hair that even when it is straight you wouldn't need any volume added in, but now my mom she isn't as - well is the word we are looking for lucky? because I … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Bellabeat Leaf Fitness Jewelry #sponsored #review #ad #bellabeat
I haven't had a lot of good luck when it comes to something to track my walking like a fitness tracker! I have had 2 in the past- one I lost the first day I had it out- we had went walking on the trail when we lived in town and I had it clipped on my shoe- and somewhere along the way it came off. David , His Dad and I walked the trail again and never found it. Then after we got home I was still upset so we went back and ran into David's dad looking again! Needless to say it never turned up! I guess the second was not really a case of having bad luck but it cost a lot of money and I felt guilty having it on the credit card at the time, plus it got a bit finicky with charging and even with tracking me so I just ended up taking it back! I really enjoyed it while I had it though- Marley and I were walking around here at the apartments about twice a day for a while! I like being able to have a way to track my steps and see my distance and all that- it makes you feel like yes, … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Kobrand Wines & Spirits #sponsored #review #ad #Kobrand #AlizeinColor #Caposaldo
Most of you probably know I have a tendency to enjoy adult beverages! I don't experiment too awful much, I kinda stick with what I know but when someone offers to send me some to review I am def. game! I have in the past had the chance to review wines and the like and have found several that I have ended up liking and then buying again in the future! I guess I like to try before I buy when it comes to those sorts of thing- better that than buy it and get home and be disappointed I suppose is my take on it! Anyways, you have probably gathered by now that I have had the opportunity again to review alcohol again, and you would be right! thanks to Kobrand Wines and Spirits I got a box of awesome Wines and Spirits to review and include here in the 2015 Holiday Gift Guide! I was pretty excited to start with but I was really excited to see that they had included some liqours in with the wine- I just had said send whatever you have that you might need reviewed :) They represent so many … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Polaroid Zip Printer & Cube Camera #review #sponsored #polaroid
I have been a fan of photography and things related for as long as I can remember! I remember having a 110 camera and later on getting an upgrade to a 35mm one. My mom had a huge fancy camera with lenses and the like and she even used to photograph peoples weddings and all that good stuff. I also remember getting my first digital camera when they first came out! I think I was the first person in the family to switch over actually. You know what I have fond memories of though? My friend when I was little was a little girl named Bethany and her mom had a polaroid and I thought that was the neatest thing ever because my mom had that fancy camera of hers and she was always taking pics and I remember even at that young of an age (3 or 4) having to send off the film and wait for the pictures to come back- I mean the horror right? and of course I was growing up WAY before the digital ones were on the scene at this point I actually have a picture of Bethany and I waiting for a picture to … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Style RX Designer Pill Box #sponsored #Review #stylerx
Pills of some sort have seemingly been a part of my life since.. well .. a long time! I was on "the pill" to regulate my female stuff (I frequently skipped periods, bled for months on end and had horrible pain and such without them) since middle school! I did pretty good with remembering to take them all the years I was on them. I have at many times been on allergy meds, st johns wort (oh remember those days?) and various other supplements but when it seems like you get more than one going and/or start something new it just gets a little more complicated to keep up with- or that could just be me- but I do know people that say the same thing! As you all know allergy related Asthma has became part of my world with in the last year or so, and now I am on a regimen of Allegra that I have to take daily. I want to remember to take it more than anything because I don't want to risk missing it and having an asthma attack even though I do have my inhaler! I think so far I have only missed … [Read more...]
