Sunsella Silicone Popsicle Molds 6 Pack Review




These Sunsella Silicone Popsicle Molds allow you to make any kind of yummy frozen treat you'd like. They are easy to wash, dishwasher safe, durable, no mess, quick freeze design, and meet FDA standards.


Each mold is 8 inches long and holds 3.4 fluid oz (1/2 cup). You want to make sure you leave enough room at the top for the liquid to expand a little while freezing. The little lid seals very tight and you can freeze them on their side or even upside down on the lid.



Nice treat for a hot summer day!


There are so many different frozen treats you can make with these and the best part is you know what is in them! The bright colors are fun too.

Liquid Chalk Markers by Stardom Crafts Review






We have had so much fun with these Liquid Chalk Markers. They come in an 18 Color Mega Pack. The markers are a really nice size and the colors are very bright. They are so versatile and can be used on any non-porous surface like mirrors, windows, metal, chalk labels, and more. Always do a test spot in a small area to be sure.



So many fun colors.


The markers are created with non toxic materials and safe to use for ages 3 and up. They are water based which means an easy clean up! 


This is what they look like when first opened. 





After a few shakes and pressing down on the tip the liquid comes down.




We have used these on our mirrors, windows, marker boards, and a few art projects. They are so much fun and I love how easy they are to just wipe off. I just use a paper towel. The chisel/bullet tip allows you to use bold or fine print.



Getting ready for a birthday party!




So fun for writing messages on mirrors!


These Liquid Chalk Markers are really just so much fun and can be used for so many things. You can find them on Amazon.

Sunsella Silicone Egg Rings Review





I make English muffin sandwiches a lot for our breakfasts. They are quick and easy to make and filling. Mine don't always look so nice since the eggs end up in all sorts of shapes. Which it doesn't affect the taste at all but sometimes the egg part is hanging out all over the muffin part. I was excited to try out these Sunsella Silicone Egg Rings to see how much nicer they might look.





The rings are easy to use. I haven't had any problems with my eggs sticking to them. They are also easy to clean. I do like that it comes in a 4 pack. If I'm just making regular eggs I use our big griddle and use all 4 of the rings but when I'm making our breakfast sandwiches I usually just use one since we only have a 2 slot toaster and it can't toast fast enough so I make them one at a time.



This is before I flipped it over. 




Cheese hadn't melted yet but I had to snap a photo quick before a kid snatched it. 


These Sunsella Silicone Egg Rings can also be used for pancakes and burgers too. They are made of premium quality silicone and are BPA free. The temperature range is from -40 to 446 F. The handles also fold down for easy storage. These egg rings can be purchased on Amazon.

You can also find out more on the Sunsella website. They offer other products also.

Running Hydration Belt Review






This Running Hydration Belt has solved all my problems for having to carry my water bottle with me on longer runs/walks. I love being able to have my hands free from holding a bottle. This is one of the nicest running belts I've used. It is super comfortable to wear. 





There is plenty of room in the middle area to store your phone, keys, id, or whatever else you take with you. It has a second mini pocket inside of it so you can keep your keys/coins separate from your phone. It also has race number clips so that you can attach your race bib without needing safety pins. Yay!




Each of the water bottles hold 6 oz. The belt has little straps that keep the bottles from falling out while you're moving. They also feel sturdy so they should last awhile. I just love not having to carry my water!





The belt is really soft and doesn't slip while running/walking. It is one of the most comfortable belts I've used. The waist band is adjustable to fit most hip sizes (27" to 40").  So whether you're out for a long run, walk, or hike this belt will make things so much better!

You can find this Running Hydration Belt on Amazon.

Adovia Dead Sea Salt Body Scrub Review



This Dead Sea Salt Body Scrub is made with real dead sea salt. It's 100% pure and genuine for an infusion of 21 minerals essential to proper skin function. The fine grain dead sea salts exfoliate the top layer of skin cells to reveal a new younger looking layer of radiant skin. The moisturizing oils infuse skin with luxurious hydration that lasts all day.

Adovia Mineral Skin Care has been producing skin care products for over 10 years. They are 100% cruelty free and never tested on animals.




I have used this Dead Sea Salt Body Scrub a couple of times on my feet and hands. It makes my skin so very soft. It also leaves my skin feeling refreshed and clean. The scent is a bit strong when using it. Almost a bit too strong for me but once it's rinsed off it's not so bad. I think this particular scrub is more oil based than others I've used. You need to shake it up every time because the salt settles to the bottom and it leaves a layer of oil on top. It does also make things very slippery!  I did have to be careful not to slip after I rinsed it off the first time. I now just sit on the edge of the tub and when I'm done dry them off and step out. I also rinse the tub well so the next person doesn't have to worry about slipping. 

I absolutely love the way it makes my skin feel so I can overlook the bit of strong scent it has. It makes my feet very happy! They are a bit far from my nose anyways so I can handle it. :)

Center of Gravity - Book Review






I'm not even sure where to start with this book. I loved it so much!! I started reading it early evening last night and could not put it down until I was finished. I normally don't like suspenseful or thriller type books but this was an exception. It was so very good. I was on edge most of the book and my heart was pounding so fast. A few times I just wanted to yell at the characters in the book to warn them what was happening. I sometimes get a tad bit too involved when I'm reading a good book.

The story line is excellent. All the characters are well described and so real. The story is told by several of the characters point of view as it goes along. Thankfully the author puts the name of the person so you know when it's switching over so you don't get confused. I think that's one of the reasons I really liked this book was the way you get so many angles of the story.

So, the book is about this woman Ava. She has this picture perfect marriage and family but then she discovers her husband Mitchell is nothing like she thought. He's hiding several things from his past. He all of the sudden becomes very controlling, jealous, and violent and decides to take their 2 boys and file for divorce. He does many things to try to damage her reputation and keep the boys away from her. Crazy things! She gets help from a new attorney in town and tries to get her boys back. A mother will do anything to protect her kids and she finds her courage to fight back but he always seems to be one step ahead of her.

I don't want to tell you anymore because you really need to read it! A few times the controlling and jealousy of her husband Mitchell reminded me of the movie Sleeping With the Enemy. It had that creepiness and on edge feeling. You just never know what is coming next.

Center of Gravity can be found on Amazon. It will be released July 14th. I definitely suggest you put it on your summer reading list! Then make sure you block off a few hours of nothing else so you can just enjoy the book. Have your snacks and a beverage close by so you don't have to get up.  :)

The Summer Diary - Book Review




After Keri's best friend Sophia and her husband are killed in a plane crash, Keri finds a diary while packing up her possessions. She decides to read it and discovers Sophia had secretly been in love with another man named Ryan. Keri hadn't known anything about him even though she thought Sophia and her never kept secrets from each other. She decides to find Ryan. There is friendship, tragedy, romance, and a bit of mystery in it.

This was a very quick read. I liked the plot but I really felt something was missing for me. I can't quite put my finger on it though. There were spots where I felt like it was lacking in detail and emotion  and I just didn't connect with the characters like I normally do in a book.

You can find The Summer Diary on Amazon.
