Stroller Bag

Angel Baby Stroller Organizer
You can find it on Amazon Here.
#AngelBabyStrollerOrginizerDiaperBag



A really helpful stroller bag here. There are pockets in the front, back, and middle. Making there a spot for everything. The front has a slot for wipes, you have to use the wipes that are in the bag, not the hard cased ones. The hard case for travel wipes does not fit, nor will a full package of wipes. Use either half a pack of wipes, or you could use the hand wipes in that spot. Next to that there is a little mesh pocket. It is the perfect size for small toys, teethers, and pacifiers. On the top/middle of the bag there is 2 spots for drinks and a pocket in the middle for snacks, a diaper, phone, whatever you may need.
On the back there is a zippered pocket too. I keep my phone and money in that back zippered pocket. The strap for the bag is very long. It will most definitely fit any stroller and can go in any number of spots. Or if you are like me and when out I tend to pile up the stroller full of stuff which leads me to even hang jackets,
shirts, or bags off the straps. On one side of the strap there is a hook & loop (Velcro) tab. I'm not sure what is supposed to go there but it really doesn't matter. You can find 1,000 things to put there. I tend to either loop the strap up into it when not hanging it off the stroller, attach a light bag to it when shopping, or hang my nursing necklaces from it. I found it to be a pretty handy bag while out and about while staying half the size if not more of a diaper bag. I was provided this item at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. These are my opinions on the item having personally tested it myself.

#MakeupSet





This was an interesting find! My children are always playing and getting into my makeup causing a huge mess for themselves and me. This makeup set looks very realistic person. The little compacts and eye shadow are a foam sponge like. They really look lifelike, which is good, because now my kinds will leave my stuff alone and play with theirs! The brushes, eye shadow, powder and blush all look very real. The tube of what should look like lip gloss looks a little fake. But for now the kids haven't noticed. I almost wish I would have gotten two sets so each of the kids could have their own. One of my boys is hard on his toys and so far after a week these are still looking good. Decent quality! This is definitely worth it for a little something for a child. I received this item at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. These are my opinions of the produce having actually had it in hand and testing it. And in this case reviewing it with my children.

Luggage Strap and ID Card Holder

We have a winner here! I recently used these going on a trip. Typically I tie on ribbon to help me be able to find my luggage at the baggage claim. These are much more visible than ribbon. They have the bright orange tags too. I'm not one to buy the funky designed luggage. I like to keep it simple actually when it comes to traveling because airlines are so rough with things. So having these straps is very useful. The items are very true to to the colors in the listing. I was provided this product at a discount in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

Blackhead Removal Kit

Blackhead Remover Kit by Aotearoa Beauty, Comedone Extractor Tools
You can find it on Amazon Here.
#AotearoaBeauty

I am really impressed by this little kit. The outside is leather like and the inside is a felt like liner. The whole kit and all pieces are packed all together very nicely and contained in the zipper pouch. It is compact and lightweight. I would have to say that it is something that everyone should have one of. Not necessarily something you would use daily, but it is nice to have on hand when you do end up needing it. It would be easy to travel with too because of the compact size and weight. 



What really actually impressed me most is the tools. They are all one piece and sturdy. Being all one single piece tool is a benefit. You can safely clean and sterilize the tools for the next use. There are various sized tools. So you are sure to be able to find a size to fit your needs. This is one I would recommend based on the quality of the tools alone. The case is just an added bonus. I was provided this kit as part of a promotion to test and give my honest and unbiased review. These are my own opinions based on me having the item in hand and personally using it.

Gel Pens

US Art Supply 48ct Jewelescent Gel Pens
You can find it on Amazon Here.
#usartsupply

Have you discovered the mysterious and new and fun trend called adult coloring? If not, well you should give it a try. Many people use coloring as an outlet to relax and relieve stress. A mindless task to clear the days craziness. This big pack of gel pens is just about all you will need to finish your coloring or art project. 



There are classic, jewel, glitter, mixed, and pastel tones. I found the caps were not too hard to remove, which can sometimes be a pain in the butt when you are in the zone. More of an annoyance than anything. But that is not a problem with these pens. They are a fine tip to a slim medium depending on the amount of pressure you are applying to the tip of the pen. I found that I liked that because I was able to do very detailed coloring in small spaces. 

I don’t find any issues with these gel pens. They consistently write, are true to their color, and do not bleed through even simple plain printer paper. All that and knowing they are acid free have me confident that they are a quality pen that will last many pictures and projects down the road.

Midori Spring Premium Ceremonial Grade Matcha


Midori Spring Premium Ceremonial Grade Matcha
This item can be found here: www.midorispirng.com
Or Here on Amazon.
#midorispring


Do you like tea? More specifically green tea? Because if you do then you should give this a try. It is a Matcha tea made by Midori Springs. The company advertises that it is USDA Organic Certified, JAS Organic Certified, OU Kosher Certified, Vegan Certified.



I am super picky when it comes to tea. I cannot tell you how many different brands and flavors of tea I have been through. I typically will only have red raspberry leaf tea. BUT I have to honestly say that I was able to drink this specific tea without any problems. My first issue with tea is smell. If I cannot get past that then it is over and done with before the get go. Not the case here. The smell is very pleasant. It isn't like other teas that remind me of grass and twigs. The smell here is a very calming earthy green that does not have me wondering if I am about to taste bark and grass. Second texture. the Midori Spring Matcha tea passes that test as well. Third is flavor. And this is where I am most impressed. There is no awful after taste that I often find with other teas. It is a easy and smooth drink that has a bit of froth at the top when whisked. I actually like that bit of froth at the top. 




If this is your first time drinking tea, please give it more than one shot. You will like it. Typical teas are brewed with water and a tea bag. This tea you mix right into the water. Because of this there is the froth at the top and it is not a "water thin" hot drink like typical teas. It has a slight thickness to it. This is one tea you will not be disappointed by. I was provided this tea at a discount in exchange for my honest review. My review is based on having the product in hand and actually using it.

Lorelei's Lyric (Book)

Lorelei's Lyric by D.B. Sieders
You may find a review and about the author Here.



I find my self wanting more. And that is a good thing! I got this as an e-book. Which I was a little worried about because I find that unless I make a solid point of getting onto the laptop I wont come back to read an e-book. This wasn't even an issue with this book. It is a quick and easy read. This is my first mermaid read, and my first elemental read (earth, fire, water....) You can tell right away that this is not going to be a book for the kids. It has a strong feeling of sexual tension building up from the get go. 

The story starts out with Lorelei and a guy in a suggestive situation and then jumps to the past where it dives into their background and history. And the story goes on from there. The very beginning started out as a almost unusual combination for me. It was highly sexually suggestive and then jumped into an almost child like fun and banter with sexual suggestions between young (500 year old) old mermaids. Lorelei and her intriguing cast of characters took me till the end of the first chapter to be hooked. From there on I was glued to the screen. From her sister and her whining about the pollution, to Vance and his addiction/recovery to  Bruce and his fun attitude, you will be in love with each and every one of them. There is just enough magic, fun, sexual suggesting/tension to be the perfect paranormal romance story.

I am really looking forward to another book in the series and there are enough characters with room to grow that this could really take off and turn into quite a few books. I had never heard of this author before but you can bet that from now on D.B. Sieders will be on my short list of authors to keep an eye on for upcoming books! I was provided this book at a discount for my honest review. These are my opinions having actually read the book.
