• Zelite Infinity 4″ Paring Knife Review

    I am one very lucky girl! I get to tell you about another Zelite Infinity Knife. The 4″ paring knife is by far my favorite!! This is a smooth, sharp knife!!  As with my other Zelite Knives I feel like a professional chef not just a meat ‘n taters cook.  Zelite Infinity Knives make food preparation FAST and easy!! The 4″ Paring Knife from Zelite uses imported Japanese VG10 Super Steel with 66-layer High Carbon Stainless Steel to make one very heavy-duty blade. This knife is also a full-tang for strength and durability. Now, I had to go look up the definition for full tang so I thought I would share this with you; full tang means that the knife is one solid piece, the handles then are pinned to the blade one on each side. Full-tang is the strongest of all knives. This knife is amazingly sharp and for the first time since I’ve been reviewing Zelite knives I’ve decided NOT to test it on my thumb. I did peel a potato with extreme ease and peeling it thinner than a potato peeler! The small, pointed blade allows me to cut out bad parts of the potatoes or remove hulls from…

  • Oricsson Lightweight, Durable, Waterproof Backpack!

    Waterproof backpack

    Hanging out with 4-year-old Alice during the week has taught me a LOT!! One is never try and tape a video with that little ham around. Two, don’t try and carry a purse when you are with her; I need my hands free whether it’s to hold her because she is too tired to walk or to hold the toys that she SWORE to me I wouldn’t have to hold if I allowed her to bring them. So, I’ve learned in these four years that for convenience I need a backpack.  Since Alice and I go a lot of places all around Southern California during the week, I’ve learned that I should always have a backpack with me. So, check out this AMAZING backpack from Oricsson! It folds up to the size of a small book. I keep it in my purse so that it is always available for our adventures. There is so much to love about this lightweight backpack. First it’s light weight, made of a unique lightweight,waterproof and tear resistant high quality nylon material. This backpack by itself weighs nothing. Truly the weight only comes from what I put in it. This is a comfortable bag to wear.…

  • First Botany Cosmeceuticals Clove and Jasmine Essential Oils

    I love essential oils. I use them for everything from cleaning, aromatherapy to mosquito repellent and everything in between. I was given the chance to review two different oils from First Botany Cosmeceuticals. First is the Clove Leaf Essential Oil . Straight from the bottle, I’m not a fan of the scent. Add it to my aromatherapy device when it’s been diluted with water it smells very nice. Very woodsy. And it is a great mood lifter. When you use Clove Bud essential oil you can use it as a pain reliever just be sure to delude it because this is a very concentrated oil. However, this bottle has a warning on the label that says for external use only. So you can use this on acne, because it’s a great antimicrobial, antifungal, antiseptic. Adding this to your cleaning products will not just have your house smelling good but kills all those germs! I am a huge essential oil user and I really prefer clove bud oil. This is a great oil just remember it’s safe for external use only. When you create your concoction be sure to add a custom cosmetic labels so you know which bottle is for…
