CARAFE Water Cup With Two-Compartment Pill Box Inside The Cap Review

CARAFE Water Cup With Two-Compartment Pill Box Inside The Cap Review


It has happened to all of us. We go to take a pill but we don’t have a glass of water on hand. So we get up and walk to the kitchen or bathroom to fetch a glass of water.
The CARAFE water cup and pill box in one is our answer. A combined pill box and water cup, The CARAFE water cup and pill box is handy to have around the house or office, on your bedside table or desktop.
The CARAFE water cup holds 124 ml of water and its pill box features two large compartments suitable for pills of any shape and size.

My Thoughts: This CARAFE cup is a very convenient but simple device. It would be great to put by your bedside on the nightstand. You fill the cup with water and place the  2-compartment pill box which holds your pills, inside the cup. Then you put the pliable blue cover on top for protection from spills. If you need to take a pill at night you won't have to get up in the dark to go to another room to get a glass of water or a pill. You'll have it right next to you. This would be nice when you are sick to have by your bedside also.

PrivateIslandParty.com (Easter Fools Edition) Costume Accessory - REVIEW

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

PrivateIslandParty.com (Easter Fools Edition) Costume Accessory - REVIEW


I received four fun costume accessories from PrivateIslandParty.com to review.

Funny Nose and Glasses

These are always a good gag for a laugh! The Funny Nose and Glasses are made of plastic and great for anybody who wants to be funny! They even have the bushy eyebrows and mustache like Groucho Marx. I had some of these glasses when my kids were little so they got a kick out of these. My twins even wore some like this when they were little and went trick-or-treating.


Whoopee Cushion
Now here's a classic prank.....the Whoopee Cushion! We had some of these also when my kids were little. All you do is inflate it and place on a chair for an unsuspecting person to sit down. Well, I think you get the idea! It makes a funny noise (like you know what)! This is always good for a good laugh!



Light Up Devil Horns

If you feel a little devilish here the costume accessory for you.....Light Up Devil Horns! They would be great for an accessory for a costume or just to act a little goofy! They are made of hard plastic and have an on/off switch for the light. The batteries are included so you are all set with these. They were a bit tight for me but would be great for a child.



LED Angel Wings Headband
Do you have a little angel in your family? They would love this LED Angel Wings Headband. It has shiny pink wings and white feathers for a nice touch!  It has an on/off switch and the wings light up. The batteries are included also. As the Light Up Devil Horns, this was rather tight for me but would be great for children.

FOLIO Strap + Go Weekly Travel Pill Box By Sabi - REVIEW

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

FOLIO Strap + Go Weekly Travel Pill Box By Sabi - REVIEW



The FOLIO pill box is made for those on a twice daily a.m./p.m. regimen of vitamins, supplements, or pills. It is a cut above the standard 14-door pill box and is much easier to load, with one universal lid.
It’s also much easier to extract pills from the FOLIO pill box. With other pill organizers, it’s nearly impossible to get your fingers into the pill box compartments and it’s necessary to turn the entire pill box upside-down to shake out its contents. The FOLIO pill box features rounded compartments that make extraction of pills quick and easy.
The FOLIO pill box is also much sleeker than any of the twice-daily pill organizers out there. It fits elegantly and stylishly into purse or briefcase, and can be taken out anywhere.

My Thoughts: I like this FOLIO pill box a lot! It is quality made and it would be so convenient to take along in my purse. The rounded compartments for the pills are really neat because it's so easy to get the pills out. It has two compartments for each day, which is nice also. One for the morning and one compartment for the evening. The strap goes over the top very easily to keep your pills secure. I will be using this quite often to take along when I go away for a night or two. It could be used to take along wherever you go.

DAYBOX Extra-Large Weekly Pill Box By Sabi - Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.


DAYBOX Extra-Large Weekly Pill Box By SABI - Review


The DAYBOX pill box is Sabi's largest pill box, a weekly pill organizer for medication management featuring eight pill boxes, each inscribed with the day of the week (plus one extra!) and each with three extra-spacious pill box compartments, suitable for storing a large number of large-sized pills, vitamins and supplements. Eight individual daily pill boxes clip together to form a beautiful weekly pill box and easily detach so you can tote with you one daily pill box at a time.




Each daily pill box is covered with a soft peel-back rubber lid that is easy on the hands to open and close, making loading with pills easy. Rounded compartments make extracting pills easy as well. The individual daily pill box fits well into any purse, bag or briefcase.




The DAYBOX weekly pill box makes it possible for even the heaviest pill, vitamin and supplement user to tote and take their pills in style.

My thoughts: I really like this pill box! It is so sturdy and well made. I have seen some other pill boxes before that are cheaply made and do not last very long. Others that I have tried before are hard to open and this pill box is so easy to manipulate with the hands, whether you are opening or closing. It's also neat that you can detach a compartment to take a pill with you when you are going away for the day.

SHAKE Flip-Top Pill Box That Dispenses One Pill At A Time - Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.



SHAKE Flip-Top Pill Box That Dispenses One Pill At A Time - Review







This is a wonderful pill box that reduces the handling of your pills and also germ transfer. All you have to do is transfer your pills into the SHAKE pill box. When you want a pill you just close the lid, shake, open the lid and retrieve one or two pills from the tray.

The SHAKE pill box lid is inset with an expiry date, dial and there's an inset cork caddy at the bottom of the pill box so you can plug the pill box opening to ensure pills remain inside the pill box (rather than rattle around on the try under the lid) during rough travel.

The SHAKE pill box is guaranteed to make taking your pills safer, easier, and yes - even fun!

This will be a great product to use for my pills. The inside part is neat. I like the opening for the pills to come out (it has a little pliable covering over the hole that you remove, which is easy). Then you shake for the pill or pills to come out..It seems like I'm always dropping one on the floor some time or another. With this product there is less chance of doing that. Also it will be great for on the go. I can take it along with me in my purse or when I go on a vacation. It is something I will get a lot of use out of.

Way Better Snacks Review + Giveaway!

Disclosure: I received complimentary products to review and all opinions are my own.


 Way Better Snacks Review + Giveaway!


Snacking is something that I think everybody likes to do. I know my family is always looking for something in between meals, especially at night while watching television or just hanging out.

I like to eat more healthy snacks these days, not just any old chip, cracker, or what have you. I'm more concerned at what I put in my body and want my family to eat more healthy also. Stores have so many different varieties of processed snacks and a lot of them are just not very good for a person. Our generation doesn't eat like they did years ago and I think we need to get back to eating more nutritious.

Let me tell you about a great company that is all about eating healthy snacks that taste great!  Way Better Snacks is the company I'm talking about! Way Better Snacks limit their ingredients to only those necessary to produce a great tasting and nutritious product. Their products are all-natural and are not genetically modified (non-GMO).

Way Better Snacks are made with the highest quality of sprouted ingredients available. They are partnered with BioEssential Botanicals, one of the world's leading experts in the area of germination. BioEssential provides all the quality sprouted seeds, grains and beans used in Way Better Snacks.

I received a box of Way Better Snacks Tortilla Chips in the following varieties:

Simply Sunny Multi-grain
Simply Sweet Potato
Simply Beyond Black Bean
Simply So Sweet Chili
Simply Unbeatable Blues
No Salt Naked Blues


Well, first of all, I can tell you that all of these Tortilla Chips are excellent!  My daughter couldn't wait to rip open a package of these amazing chips so we both tried out the Simply So Sweet Chili first. They were seasoned wonderfully with a spicy sweet flavor.
 They are great to eat alone and we nearly ate the whole bag at once. Then my daughter hid the rest of the bag for herself, by the way.


The Sweet Potato was next to try and I was very curious to see what these would be like. I love sweet potatoes and these Sweet Potato chips are just as delicious. You will be happy to know that sweet potatoes are a good source of vitamin A. 


The Black Bean variety was crunchy and tasty. I also found out on their website that the nutrients in sprouted black beans are known to help reduce blood cholesterol, which is a plus too. The Naked Blues, Unbeatable Blues and Multi-Grain were just as flavorful and would be great with salsa, hummus or your favorite dip.




You can purchase Way Better Snacks on their website. The 24 pack of small bags (1.25 oz.) sell for $28.56. They also sell a case with 6 packs of regular bags (5.5 oz.) for $20.94. Shipping is a flat rate of $7. If you order 12 or more of the larger bags shipping is free. Also if you order two or more cases of the single serve bags then shipping is free too. To check what stores you can purchase Way Better Snacks go to their store locator here.

I'm so happy to have found out about Way Better Tortilla Chips!  With these awesome chips I can have a good tasting snack and not feel guilty about eating them!

GIVEAWAY:  If you would like a chance to win a prize pack of 6 varieties of Way Better Tortilla Chips just enter the Rafflecopter below. Ages 18 or older in the U.S. Giveaway ends March 24, 2014.

Pulled Pork Sandwiches In A Crock Pot


3 - 4 lb. pork loin cut in chunks
1 large onion diced
1/4 cup ketchup
bottle of your favorite barbecue sauce
3 tbsp.worcestershire sauce
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. salt 
1/8 tsp. garlic powder

Place pork loin in crock pot and add the rest of the ingredients.  I added a little water at the beginning.  Cook on high for about 6 hours.  As it's cooking you can mix the ingredients in the crock pot.  The pork was so tender I used two forks and shredded it right in the crock pot.  You could remove it and shred it and place it back in the crock pot also.

J'Adore VoxBox From Influenster - Review


Disclosure: I received these products complimentary for testing purposes from Influenster. All opinions are my own and yours may differ.



J'Adore VoxBox From Influenster - Review


Ooh la la!
A little Valentine from us to you, mon cherie! Filled with trinkets, joy, and a certain je ne sais quoi, the J'adore VoxBox will have you head over heel and whispering tweet nothings: J'adore, I adore, we adore...#JadoreVoxBox



I was so excited to get my J'adore VoxBox! This is the second VoxBox I have received from Influenster and it was really a fun box to get!

Look at the goodies I received in my VoxBox!


Kiss Looks So Natural Lashes: $3.99
These lashes are made with Tapered End Technology so lash strips blend seamlessly with your own lashes, inconspicuously highlighting your eyes. They are very soft and look so cool! I can't wait to try them out when I "dress up" to go out!


Boots Botanics Shine Away Ionic Clay Mask: $9.39
This mask is a mineral-rich clay mask which is designed for use on normal skin and it's unscented. It is a hypo-allergenic formula and absorbs excess oil and deeply cleanses skin. I like how it makes my skin feel fresher and more smooth after using it.


Frizz Ease 3-Day Straight Flat Iron Spray: $9.99
This flat iron spray is a revolutionary heat-activated formula that is supposed to last for up to 3 days without weighing hair down. It's infused with Keratin and protects against hair damage. My daughter used it for her hair and was pleasantly pleased with it! She liked how it made her hair nice and smooth, and not frizzy.


Red Rose Simply Indulgent Teas: $4.49 for carton of 20 bags
I love tea and Red Rose is a favorite brand of mine. I got 4 tea bags (3 Creme Caramel and 1 Lemon Chiffon) to try out. They are such unique and yummy flavors and I am going to use the $2.00 coupon I received to buy some more of these flavors!


Hershey's Kisses Milk Chocolate: $5.29 for 18.5 oz. bag
What can I say about Hershey's Kisses! These are always a great chocolate fix when you want a little snack! I got a giant family size bag with the Valentine theme wrappers. They are always delicious!

I really enjoyed this J'adore VoxBox from Influenster and loved trying out the wonderful products! Thanks Influenster!

Majestical Jewelry - Review

Majestical Jewelry - Review 


I was really excited to be able to review some beautiful earrings from Majestical Jewelry. Normally I don't wear costume jewelry such as these type of earrings.  I usually stick with my gold earrings but sometimes I see women wear flashy earrings like this in the summer with some cute dress or outfit and they look so nice. Well, I was really pleased and like these earrings a lot! 

First of all the earrings I got to try out came in a beautiful box and also came with a string pouch that I can store my earrings in for safe keeping. What a nice touch and very classy indeed.



These earrings are so beautiful looking and I love the color, which looks like turquoise.  There is a shiny diamond looking gemstone in the middle of them and a circle of small shiny diamond looking gemstones around the inside of them also. 




These earrings are very well made and look really classy, don't you think? Majestical Jewelry has so many other types of jewelry on their website that you should really check them out.

 If you prefer silver jewelry they have a wide variety of silver jewelry also, such as bracelets, necklaces and earrings. They also have a nice variety of pearl jewelry, charms and charm jewelry.

You will be sure to find something that you will love at Majestical Jewelry!

Majestical Jewelry is offering a promotional code for $15 off orders of $55 or more. The code is 15DOLALRSOFF
