Each year when the holidays roll around, I always talk about making a popcorn themed craft project to share with my family and friends during the holidays.
There is something simple and delicious about popcorn balls, and nothing says the holidays are nearing as when the popcorn supply increases in our lives.
Gaslamp Popcorn was generous to send me a couple of bags to create some popcorn balls.
Mrs. Thinster’s: Limited Edition Seasonal Selections Review + Giveaway
As regular readers will know, we are a cookie house, and a fan of all things sweet!
Up until a couple of years ago I was not the biggest fan of caramel flavored cookies or cakes, then I met my husband, and after always sampling his desserts, I have a new appreciation for this flavorful treat.
Since I am always on the lookout for different cookies, when I saw that Mrs. Thinster’s has two Limited Edition flavor’s for the holidays it was as though they knew the flavors for our house.

FiveFingerTees Review + Giveaway
Since I spend many hours on my computer I have discovered that this constant state of sitting necessitates the need for comfortable clothes. My favorite outfit is a pair of yoga pants, a tank top and a t-shirt and always with a comfy pair of socks. The major reason for this level of comfort you want to be as comfortable as possible when you are sitting as much as I do each day. Due to this constant state of being I am always on the lookout for additions to my “work uniform”.
Last September I happened upon FiveFingerTees.com for the first time and at the time I was blown away!
Golden Girl Granola: New Packaging Review + Giveaway
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.
Back in June of 2015 I reviewed a company from Shirley, Ma called Golden Girl Granola. I had the opportunity to sample 4 of the 7 flavors available and loved them. 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 + 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.
Sunbelt Bakery: Dark Chocolate Chunk Granola Bars Review + Giveaway
When I was a child I took dance classes and spent a good amount of time in my father’s car when he would take me to and from dance class. At the time the only place to take lessons was almost 25 minutes from home.
Often times on my way home I would get hungry and my father would hand me a granola bar or equal treat. I always wondered how he knew I would be hungry after dance class and now I wonder why I was not some days.
The granola bars I remember were crunchy and came in simple flavors such as maple, peanut butter or the overly simplistic plain flavor. When I received Sunbelt Bakery’s Chewy Granola Bars, I knew this was not the granola bar of my youth. Continue reading

It is not a secret that we are a snack house. At any given time we have snacks that range from the healthy to the slightly unhealthy.
One of the healthier snacks that we have discovered that satisfies both Jason and I’s ever changing taste buds is popcorn.
Since we are such a snack home when I heard that Gaslamp Popcorn was releasing a new flavor called Malibu Mix I was curious.
Cave Tools: Salad Spinner & Large Serving Bowl Set Review + Giveaway
When you start making meals at home, there are certain tools that make the job easier. There are the obvious time savers like knives, and chopping and frying.
On the flip side there are the tools that will make life easier, but as beginning home chefs these items are unknown to us. Since we are cooking at home more we are adding salads and fruits to our meals as a side note to the protein.
When I was re-approached by Cave Tools with an opportunity to review their new items, I was interested since I have had the chance to review other products of theirs. When I discovered it was a Salad Spinner & Large Serving Bowl Set I was excited, as we needed one. Continue reading
