A few weeks back, I was sent some coupons so that I could try out UNREAL Candy. UNEAL is candy that has been ‘un-junked’. There is no corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oil, GMOs, preservatives, and it has a low glycemic index. Plus, each candy only has 16 grams of sugar per serving. Now, as with all healthy food, I was expecting it all the taste like crap and be really expensive. I also had to Walgreens to get some since there aren’t a lot of stores that carry it yet. Our local Walgreens only carried it on the large bags and I don’t think that the freebie coupons covered it. But the store was closing in less than three minutes and the kid at the counter gave it to me…plus gave me a free bag just to get me out of there (I need to shop there more often). Anyway, I picked up two bags of the peanut butter cups and one bag of the regular M&Ms. I tried the peanut butter cups first once we got home, and they just about knocked my socks off! They were so good! Even my husband ...

Product Review – Dr. Max Powers Scar Serum
Last week, I was sent a bottle of Dr. Max Powers Scar Serum. Dr. Max Powers’ products provide vitamins & supplements that your body needs when doing heavy workouts. I previously reviewed another of their products, the stretch mark cream, so I know that their stuff works pretty well. The scar serum works on both new and old scars. For new scars, you apply it twice a day for 8 weeks. On old scars, you apply it three times a day for 3-6 months. The only noticeable old scar that I have is on my arm from a surgery years ago. I’ve used it as directed for the past week or so, and have noticed a slight difference in its appearance. The edges seem a bit lighter and blend into the surrounding skin more than what they did. Give the length of time that you need to use the product, I’m not really able to give a really good review of it as of yet. So far, everything looks very promising in the old scar on my arm, but I want to test it on a new scar. Since I will be having knee ...
Creative Bioscience Diet 1234 Review & Giveaway [ENDED]
For the past three months, I’ve been participating in the Creative Bioscience 90 Day Weight Loss Challenge. Creative Bioscience has been innovation the weight loss industry for quite a while now. They have a large number of products available right now that work a variety of different ways. The product that I was taking was the Diet1234. It boosts energy and suppresses the appetite, and you don’t have to count carbs or be on any type of food diet. I’ve been trying to get rid of weight and fluid since I had Hannah and up until the point that I started the challenge, I hadn’t had a whole lot of luck. Stuff would work for a short time & the fluid would come back quickly after I was finished taking it. Plus, you have to be working out a lot, and with my knee being mess up it was next to impossible to do anything. Once I started taking Diet 1234, I noticed results fairly quickly. You only have to take two pills in the morning for breakfast and then you are good for the rest ...

Book Review – When Shadows Fall by L. Ron Hubbard
In When Shadows Fall, by L. Ron Hubbard, we get a startling glimpse of a future where Earth is depleted of its resources and what’s let if its inhabitants are in desperate need of help in order to survive. The fate of everyone lies in the hands of three aging commanders as they desperately comb the cosmos for help from colonial civilizations. I really, really liked this story. It’s fairly short, with no chapters, and is very vivid. You can really get a sense of the hopelessness of the situation and everyone’s frustration when they believe that their last efforts were all for not. There are two other stories included with this one, Tough Old Man & Battling Bolto. Though Old Man is a very enjoyable tale of human endurance and has quite the funny ending. Battling Bolto is the absolutely hilarious story of a con-man and is sure to please everyone with its plot twist. Overall, I loved this book. All three stories are excellent, and the audio book was great too. Both the book & ...
Product Review – Firmoo.com
I apologize for the crapy pic. My webcam is terrible and I didn't feel like waiting to get a better one. A few weeks ago, I was invited to try out Firmoo, an online prescription lens and glasses provider. It is the world’s most popular glasses provider and they provide quality & fashionable eyewear at low prices. They also have a program where first-timebuyers can get their glasses for free. After my last disastrous outingwith online eyewear providers, I was extremely leery about ordering anything from them…especially with the first-time buyer thing they have. I’ve learned over the years that when something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Plus, the online feedback about the site isn’t all that favorable. But, I decided to give it a go. One of the first things I noticed was how easy the site was to navigate. I easily pulled up the type of glasses I wanted and was able to quickly browse through them. I even used the photo ap on the sidebar to get a ...
