As the days march on so does my own aging process, and if there was one thing I was not warned about it is aging.

As many people know, I love supporting smaller businesses.

Many times these small businesses have wonderful stories and interesting paths that led them to where they are now.

Recently Golden Girl has redesigned their packaging and with this new packaging, I was given the chance to try the remaining 3 flavors and host a giveaway!

SoapBox Soaps: Vanilla Liquid Hand Soap Review

SoapBox Soaps: Vanilla Liquid Hand Soap Review + Giveaway

As we head into the fall months I have noticed the smell of cinnamon and vanilla are filling my senses.

When I think of vanilla the first thing that pops in my head are cookies and other baked goods. I had never really been a fan of scented soaps until I hit my late teens. Since then I have become a huge fan of scented soaps, and look forward to new scents and varieties entering my life.

Since the one of the smells of the season is Vanilla it seems more than appropriate that SoapBox Soaps has released a new liquid soap.

Simple Mills: Chocolate and Vanilla Frosting Reviews

Simple Mills: Chocolate and Vanilla Frosting Review and Giveaway

As I have gotten older I have realized that there are few things that I can make better than I can buy. One of these items is baked goods – almost everything I make tastes better than what I can otherwise purchase.

Upon this revelation I immediately went to the store and I began stocking up on baked goods. I purchased flour, sugar, baking powder and extracts of every flavor. I excitedly came home and decided to make brownies. I was under the belief that just simple plain brownies would suffice, but I was quickly informed that frosted brownies are better.

I have mentioned in the past that one of my favorite things as a blogger is when I company that I have worked with in the past, increases and expands their product offerings. Since I suddenly found myself in a frosting-less situation I inquired to Simple Mills so that I could sample their new frosting’s and when I reached out they were generous enough to send me a their newest sweet offering.

Crunchies Freeze Dried Fruit Review

Crunchies Freeze Dried Fruit Review and Giveaway!!!!

Since I am a review blogger and thus a small business owner, time is precious and ease is preferred over almost any other option.

One of the healthiest and simplest snacks that I have discovered is freeze-dried fruit. The thing that makes these healthy is that this is a single-ingredient snack. Since it is only fruit they are non-GMO, vegan, gluten-free and kosher. As an added plus they have no added sugar or artificial flavoring.

When I received the Crunchies Freeze Dried Fruit Assortment for review, I was looking forward to sample some fruits that I had not tried freeze-dried before.

Goodie Girl: Vanilla and Cocoa Slims Review

Goodie Girl: Vanilla and Cocoa Slims Review + Giveaway!!!!

It is no secret that I am a fan of Goodie Girl Cookies and we share them with our friends and loved ones as often as we can.

Recently my mother in law was mentioning that she loves the yearly mint cookies, but is sad she has to wait once a year to indulge in her favorite cookie. I have kept this in mind and on one of my mass Goodie Girl cookie purchases I bought her a box of Mint Slims.

I was eager to hear her opinion of these gluten-free cookies, and had to contain my excitement when she was taking her first bite. After she had a couple, she looked at me and declared that she likes these more than her previous once a year favorites. About a week later I heard that the box was no longer, and its contents empty.

I loved this moment and it reminded me of why I began the blog in the first place – to share products with people that they otherwise may not have known about. Recently Goodie Girl released a 8-pack package of Mint Slims, as well as Vanilla Slims and Cocoa Slims.

The Ginger People: Ginger Rescue & Arjuna Bar Review and Giveaway

Let’s be honest, we all live stressful lives and sometimes that stress manifests into stomach issues. Most medicines that are made to help stomach issues are harsh and have less than positive side effects.

Since me and concept of nausea are very familiar I appreciate easy solution that will be as natural as possible. Given that this is a common problem during one of Jason and I’s many discussions he suggested that I try a ginger based solution.

I had done a review for the Ginger People about a year ago, and since they recently released some new products, I was curious to try their new ginger products.
