My Review: VETRO iPhone 6 4.7" Ultra Slim 0.2mm Tempered Glass Screen Protector
The best I have used yet on any phone. I have a horrible time with getting the screen protectors on without bubbles and trying to get them perfectly straight. This one was a breeze. It's thin and flexable, but it looks like it should hold up for a long time to come. My phone is in a pocket all day at work with keys, tools, a zipper pouch, and various other items on top of some rags with household chemicals on them, so i have to have screen protectors. It's only been a few days but so far so good. I was given this in exchange for my review this time, but will buy the next one.

My Review: KabelDirekt (10 feet) 3.5mm Male to 3.5mm Male Stereo Audio Cable - PRO Series
I was given the KabelDirekt cable in exchange for my honest review. I like this cord it is very sturdy. I am using it in my car to hook my mp3 player to my car stereo. The one I did have was very lightweight and flimsy. This one is heavy duty compared to mine. It is a lot thicker and I am not afraid to move the cord thinking it may break a wire. It is 10 feet long so I have left well over half of it coiled, but if I wanted to hook it up to stereo equipment or even plug it into the computer it would be great.

My Review: iPerfect Kitchen Envy Spiral Slicer
The envy spiral slicer was given to me at a huge discount in exchange for my honest review.
This came to me with the spiral slicer, a lid, a cleaning brush, and a pull string bag to store it all in. I made spiral carrots to add to salad. It was actually really easy to use. Put the carrot in either end and twist. When it gets smaller use the cap that has pin like pieces sticking out to grab your veggie. If you continue to twist you will get long spirals that will go through the whole veggie. I also made spiral potato fries to put on top of Hamburgers. Huge potatoes will not work so pull out your whole bag to find the ones that will fit in the approx. 2 inch wide whole. this can go in a dishwasher but rinsing it in warm soapy water works great. It's actually kind of fun making the veggie spirals and figuring out how to use them in your recipes.

My Review: Foxbrim Vitamin C lotion
I was given the Foxbrim Vitamin C Lotion in exchange for my honest review.
This is actually a face lotion but I used it on my hands instead. I work in chemicals all day and my hands are horrible so I figured this would be the best test of any lotion. Below are pictures showing my left hand which I used the lotion on and my right hand which I did not use it on. The pictures themselves should say enough, but I have to brag. I have horrible dry and cracked skin on my fingers and hand nails that peel hurt and bleed around my nails. After just 1 week of using this lotion the fingers on my left hang no longer have hang nails and the cracks down my index finger have healed. My hand is soft also.
The lotion is a natural moisturizer. Ingredients listed on package are: Organic Aloe Barbadensis (aloe vera), Isopropyl Palmitate (palm oil), Methysulfonylmethane (MSM), Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Vitamin C), Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Cetyl Alcohol, Steearic Acid, Glyceryl Sterate, Organic Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower Oil), Butyrospermum Parki (Shea Buter), Organic Simmondsia Chinensis (Johoba Oil), Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexyl Glycerin, Xanthun Gum, Organic Camellia Sinensis. It is lightweight, non greasy, and unscented. I used it once in the morning and once at night. It is a very thick cream. It says on the bottle you can wear this under makeup also. It's a good sized plastic bottle, 50 ML. and is a pump style bottle. The lid is a push on pull off lid. This stuff is great.

Cover Reveal & Giveaway : Invaluable by Alana Albertson
Invaluable
by Alana Albertson
Publication Date: Spring 2015
Genres: Contemporary, Romance, Suspense
by Alana Albertson
Publication Date: Spring 2015
Genres: Contemporary, Romance,
I’ll be honest with you—I'm no saint. Sure, when I turned down my 3.6 million dollar football contract to join the SEAL Teams, the media had a field day. Selfless, patriotic, an American hero. But the God's honest truth was that I was bored with that world, the playboy lifestyle, the ass kissing, the lack of integrity. There’s even a line in one of our cadences: “When I go to heaven St. Peter he will say ‘Did you earn your living? Did you earn your pay?’ My reply was with a little bit of thunder ‘I earned my living killing down under.’” You've read the tabloids—I'm infallible, invincible, invaluable. But it wasn't that deep—I just wanted some action.
A one night stand with a San Diego coed, no promise for tomorrow. I picked her out of a steamy nightclub—sexy blonde hair, curvy hips, nice ass. After she rode me all night, I took in the ocean view from my condo, thankful for the blissful moments she gave me to get me through my long deployment—I savored the warm touch of a woman, the scent of her perfume and the sound of her laughter.
As fate would have it, I crossed paths with Miss San Diego again, halfway across the world in Afghanistan. Turns out she was a NFL Cheerleader sent on a USO tour to entertain my Team. Her convoy was ambushed, and insurgents held her hostage deep in the mountains. I'd gazed into her beautiful blue eyes and given her my word that she'd be safe. And my word is my bond.
I'll never win MVP, never get the Super Bowl ring, but some heroes don't play games.

My Review: Billy and the Ear Elves By: Ayala Saar
This book is written pretty much in rhyme, it is short and easy to read and understand for small children. The pictures are cute and tell the story pretty much by themselves.
The book is about Billy who loves ice cream and wants it now now now. His mommy has company and he keeps interrupting. Mommy tells Billy no a few times before she finally tells him about the Ear Elves who protect her ears from the fit he is pitching. In the end Billy figures out he should be a good boy and to have patients. I read this story to my 2 year old Grand Daughter and she loved it. I was given a copy of this book from the Author in exchange for my honest review.

My Review: Soft Silicone Bib By Monkey Moo 5*
I like everything about this bib, its strong, sturdy, but yet soft to the touch. It's made out of silicone so its soft not scratchy and flexible. The connector on the neck piece is great, it also is smooth and flexible. My 8 month old Grand Son is the one using the bib and he thinks he should feed himself, and boy does he make a mess, he is also teething. Regular bibs and even the ones with the little pocket at the bottom do little or no good at all for catching anything, he may as well not have anything on, but this bib is amazing. The pocket is deep and wide great for catching spilled food as well as drool. After dinner a little warm water and soap and towel dry and it's ready to go for the next round. It can also be put in the dishwasher.
I got this product at a huge discount in exchange for my honest review,and am so glad I was able to get it for my Grand son.
