You all already know that I am a sucker for headbands, so I will spare you the whole back story. Just know it all started with Blair from gossip girl, and that I hated headbands as a child. I think one of the reasons I hated them as a child other than the fact that I always said they hurt my ears, was because they were not nearly as pretty as the ones that you see today. I was stoked when I got the chance to bring you all my most recent review, because Infinity headband from Ambrosia designs totally hooked me up with some goodies to review. More headband choices for this gal? I was all in! A Simple, Basic Concept With Lots of Possibility: Infinity headbands are different from any other headband that I have came across because they are totally customizable and you have so many options to choose from, because it is one headband that you can use to well, essentially have an infinite possibility of designs with! The basis of the headband is a clear plastic headband with Velcro … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Terracycle Mailbag Ipad Case
A Little Background On Yours Truly (relevant to this review item!) One thing I have always been obsessed with long before I was a blogger is the MAIL. I don't know but ever since I was a young child I anxiously awaited delivery of the mail when I was at home, and if not I wanted to be the one that picked it up out of the mailbox in the afternoon. I also liked getting the occasional package from other methods of delivery, but they were far and few between, and the mail was 6 days a week! I guess I always liked the wonder of what I could get that day in the mail! I know I used to send away for freebies and stuff a lot as a child. Presenting TerraCycle Upcycled Items: I tell you that background, to tell you about the latest item that I got to review! I recently discovered a site called Terracycle which has lots of awesome goodies that are made from everyday items that are harder to recycle such as chip bags and even billboards! Even cooler? They actually obtained permission from … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Glass Dharma Glass Straws
I have always been terrified of glass dishes and knives. I think it stems from being afraid that something will break on me in the dishwater, which has happened before. As far as knives I only use them when I absolutely have to, and I do not wash them myself either! I have luckily only been cut once, and that was last year, so where the fear steams from I am not sure! So you would be surprised to find out when I learned there were such a thing as glass straws I wanted to try them out! I don't know, something just called to me with them! It isn't like I totally avoid glass or anything. So I got the chance to review some glass straws from Glass Dharma I was pretty excited! Why Glass Straws ? & More Info: I know that in most houses you probably use a lot of disposable goods that would have a non disposable counterpart such as paper plates instead of dishes, and paper towels and napkins when you could use a cloth napkin, just for a few examples. I know that I use these … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: GeminiRed Creations Headbands & Cabochon Flower hair clips
A few months back I was lucky enough to get the chance to go to Bloggy Bootcamp when it came to Charlotte. I met several awesome people that I still talk to quite frequently. One of these gals was Heather, who owns Gemini Red Creations. Not that long ago I realized she MAKES HEADBANDS and I was happy to have her offer me a couple in exchange for a review, of course I said yes! Because she LOVES me, she sent me two headbands and two clips. It was so cute the way she packaged them together in a cute little bag, and included her business card. I am a sucker for cute packaging and business/blogger cards! She is also in my area quite often and I hope we can meet up in person again so I can properly thank her for being so awesome to me! I have always loved purses, most of you all know that, but my love for headbands is pretty new found. I know that as a child I didn't really like them at all, go figure! I used to say they hurt my ears lol. I don't know but for some reason since they … [Read more...]
Holiday Gift Guide Review: Disney Classics CD Box Set
Who isn't a Disney fan? I think it kind of transcends through childhood into adult hood because I for one have always been a fan! I think because they have such a wide range of movies and tv shows and such through the years! I know that I grew up watching Disney! What are all those movies though without all the awesome songs? I was ecstatic when I got the chance to receive the new Disney Classics CD box set to review. The set was just released on November 12th of this year.

Zaycon Foods: Boneless Skinnless Chicken Breast Review
You may or may not know that when it comes to me and eating, I am considered a picky eater. Which is totally WRONG I mean everyone has things they don't eat, and then to top it all of I have a slew of food allergies and then some items that I don't eat for religious reasons. As far as meat, I only eat Chicken and Beef, so when I got the chance to review 40lbs of boneless skinless chicken breast from Zaycon Foods, I was BEYOND excited! (I even wrote a pre-review post that you can find here"Upcoming Review: Zaycon Foods Chicken") I am all about eating meat as close to being natural as possible! My family has for years had their own beef that we have processed on our own, and my dad also is a deer hunter, so even though I will only eat it when he makes jerky out of it, I have in the past enjoyed that as well. I like knowing that the meat doesn't have a bunch of unnecessary junk in it! I also enjoy the more fresh flavor that you get as well. What you can expect from the … [Read more...]
