Dorot Gardens: Fresh Frozen Garlic and Herbs Review

Herbs Frozen – Dorot Crushed Garlic, Chopped Basil and Crushed Ginger – A Review & Giveaway

As I have mentioned in the past, I am starting down the path of home cooking. Admittedly I am not very good, but I try hard and most of my food is edible.

All Good: Dapper Dad Gift Set Review

Treat Dad in the New Year with the Dapper Dad Gift Set Review & Giveaway

Since I was raised by a single father, I had little direction when it came to gifts. I knew that my father took care in how he looked and felt. If he could combine a good cause and good product that was always preferred and requested.

Earlier this year I came upon was All Good Products and their #ReefFriendly campaign. The basic idea of the #ReefFriendly Campaign is to spread awareness to make sure that the products on our skin, are also safe for the underwater reefs. As it happens they have a wonderful gift set for dad called the Dapper Dad Gift Set.

Mediflow: Floating Comfort Pillow Review

Floating Comfort Pillow by Mediflow – Review & Giveaway

Confession time – I LOVE to be comfortable. This extends to the clothes I wear each day, to the feel of my couch when I am relaxing and to my bed that I sleep each night.

The one thing that I struggle with more often than not is staying asleep. The reasons that I wake up throughout the night vary from night to-night and can be as simple as a cat running around to my spouse getting up for water.

Getting a good nights sleep is a valuable thing, and I am ALWAYS searching for new ways to get a good nights slumber. I recently got a new quilted bed set, so naturally I would need a new pillow as well. As luck would have it, I had the opportunity to review the Floating Comfort Waterbase Pillow from Mediflow.
