My Review: Danish Dough Whisk Large 13.5 Dutch Style Stainless Steel with Wooden Handle

I was chosen to receive this Dough Whisk in exchange for my honest review.

This is 13 1/2 inches long, it has a wooden handle that is about a 1/2 thick at it's thickest point, it is very sturdily put together. The wire is Stainless steel and also very sturdy, it is by no means wimpy, I pushed and pulled at it with my hand to see how strong it was and it did not bend at all. I used it on home made pizza dough and it great. I also used it to whisk eggs and that worked great too. Just because it says dough whisk does not mean you have to just use it with dough, works great when ever you need a whisk. It is simple to clean up too just run it under hot water and a soapy cloth or sponge, rinse and you are ready to go again. So easy you will toss your regular wire whisks. If you decide not to wash it till after dinner it wont take a sand blaster to get it clean like wire whisks.

 Amazon website says the handle is made of birch and was made in Poland. The company offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee if you are not happy with it.

My Review: Müeller Spiral-Ultra 4-Blade

This has become one of my favorite kitchen gadgets. It is not only a spiral cutter but it also is a slicer, grater, juicer, and more. It is a 8 in 1 gadget.
  It comes with 4 blades, you can fine and course julienne, grate cheese or veggies, spiral slice wide or thin, juice, slice. The slicer is a bit thin great for fried potatoes but too thin I think for french fries, but you can make curly fries  with the julienne attachment. It has a large 4 cup removable container. It has suction cups on the bottom to hold it still while you are working. The attachments fit in the container so they are not all over your pantry. It is made of BP free sturdy plastic. It is dishwasher safe but just as easy to use warm soapy water since it is so easy to clean up.
 I love that the container catches everything, with my hand help julienne tool, veggie pieces are everywhere when I am done. Makes cooking so much easier to have to try and gather it all back up. Also with the hand help julienne tools, my hand wear our and the pieces are no where near sliced as nice as by using this.

I received a huge discount on this Jojoba Oil in exchange of my honest unbiased opinion

Jojoba Oil for Hair and Skin it is extracted from the seed of Jojoba Tree it is Organic, 100% PURE, and Natural. Majestic Pure guarantee's If you are not completely satisfied with their Jojoba Oil, they will refund your entire purchase price. It comes in a Amber colored glass bottle and also comes with a high quality glass dropper.

I like to use it on my hair before I shower to condition it. Just put a little on wrap your head in a towel or shower cap for a few minutes then shampoo as usual. I tried it after a shower and it left my hair oily looking.  It's amazing for my skin, I work in household type chemicals all day and my hands and arms are very dried out from them, just rub a little on and it helps, also relieves chapped winter skin.

My Review: La Vida Essentials Fractionated Coconut Oil (Liquid) 16 Oz

It may not be a miracle oil but it's pretty close. It is in liquid form, which to me is better then the solid stuff. You can use it on your hair, your skin, your nails, you can mix it with other oils. There is no scent to this oil. It comes in a very large 16 ounce plastic bottle. It is 100% pure  Fractionated Coconut Oil and can be used in lots of body recipes for making lotions and more. You can use it straight out of the bottle or add some scented oils to it to give it a scent. Is a great massage oil also. It is non greasy feeling, and soaks into your skin really quickly.  I like to put Fractionated Coconut Oil after a shower and add a little to my hair, and it does help with my dry, brittle, frizzy hair. I was given this product for my honest review and I will be buying more when I run out of this bottle. It also has an amazing e-book with 33 recipes that covers everything from toothpaste to bug spray.

My Review: SteadyTrek Hidden Travel Money Belt

Very roomy, it has 2 large zippered pockets. Inside the back pocket also has a divider plus lots of room in the main pocket itself. The pocket is approx. 5 inches tall and 11 inches long, large enough for pretty much whatever you want to add to it.  The elastic waist band is very soft and says will fit up to 43 inch. Just toss it in the wash machine when it gets dirty. And the best thing it is RFID blocking material. Safe and secure, wear it under your shirt, it is not bulky like a fanny pack, and weighs practically nothing. It is gray, so most clothing will hide it. I got this at a huge discount for my honest review.

My Review: I was given a copy of this book for my honest review. It's an adorable read. I have to say adorable because of the baby bear. The Story is about Vivie, who had been attacked and raped years earlier in Boston, Liam a DEC officer, who had seen too much in the war, Buttons the baby bear whose mother was killed by some poachers, Jinx the cat who is blind in one eye, and Scooter the old dog who is now deaf. Vivie inherited her Aunt's farmhouse in the Adirondack Mountains and moved there to open a cafe. She met Liam the first tie during the winter when she was tossing scrap food out the back door of her cafe for the animals. It was an instant dislike when he told her she couldn't do that. During the summer months Maggie was awakened to sounds in her kitchen, she went down to investigate and found a baby bear. She called the DEC and wouldn't you know it they sent Liam. Liam wanted to shoot the baby since it was too young to be on it's own. Vivie talks him into to holding off until she can take the tst to be a rehabilitator, and also talks him into be her supervisor. As the story goes on they become friends. She is still suspicious of him due mainly to her attack years ago. But as time goes on the trust builds and turns into love. Now you have to go get the book to find out the rest of the story.
