    Gideon Flameless LED Candle

    I love candles, the romantic glow and the added bonus that everyone looks great by candlelight! Seriously, if I could live by candlelight I would! Think of the money I’d save on cosmetics, creams, serums! Okay, maybe I won’t go that far. But, I do look better by candlelight. All of that to tell you about my new Gideon 7″ Flameless LED Candle. I know, I know you’ve seen flameless candles before but you haven’t seen one like this before. It’s SO COOL!!!! I can’t stop staring at this candle!! From the second I opened the box I was impressed. It SMELLS like a vanilla scented candle. That was a…

  • Shredded Memory Foam Pillow Review

    I could kick myself for not having my camera out when I opened this pillow. Actually I wish I could have had TWO cameras! One camera zoomed in on my face and one on the pillow. My initial reaction to the pillow was first ‘what the heck did I order?!’ This Shredded Memory Foam Pillow covered with a Kool-Flow Micro-Vented Bamboo Cover by Xtreme Comforts arrives packaged like a large cylinder and solid; not to mention really heavy!

  • Camping At Doheny State Beach!

    Doheny State Beach

    Well, as much as I was looking forward to Yosemite for a week, Mother Nature had something else in mind. Rain, mud, cold weather AND a 3-year-old?! I don’t THINK so!! We tent camp. So imagine all that mud in the tent after say ohhhh the first 5 minutes? Yeah, NOT happin’!! So, instead we loaded up the 2016 Kia Sorento and drove up the coast to Doheny State Beach for our week of tent camping. The Kia Sorento SXL V6 AWD was the PERFECT vehicle for camping!! Not only does this puppy let me load it up with TONS of gear but, once it was unloaded it was our…

    Gripmax Close Combat Grips, Exclusively for Xbox One Controllers

    My darling husband is a video gamer. He has been since he was a kid. Now at 61 he still plays daily.

These grips fit perfectly and stay in place during play and if you use these right away they will protect your actual thumbsticks from getting worn out too quickly. These are a MUCH…
