100% Pure Argan Oil by Foxbrim

We've all heard about Argan Oil and the benefits it has for hair (shiny, glossy, healthy strong look).  But have you heard that it can be a Miracle in a Bottle?  This Argan Oil by Foxbrim is not only 100% pure, but can be used on your face as a moisturizer (which is how I currently use it), cuticle conditioner, hair and body.

Like I've just stated, I've been using this Foxbrim 100% Pure Argan Oil on my face as a moisturizer and let me tell you, it only takes about 3 drops and leaves me with a glowing healthy complexion.  If using it as a face moisturizer, the bottle states to wait at least 3-5 minutes before applying makeup.  I've waited approximately 7 minutes and found that my makeup went on so much smoother and easier and I still had that healthy glow.  I was amazed how well my makeup looked.  Did I just have a good day with makeup or was it the 100% Argan Oil?  I believe it was the Foxbrim's 100% Pure Argan Oil, because I've never had a glow stay as long as it did, the day I used it.

The 100% Argan Oil is Certified Organic, contains no fillers, fragrances, additives, parabens or silicones and is sourced directly from Morocco. You won't get an oily or greasy feeling like you do with some Argan Oils, as a matter of fact, when I used the Foxbrim's 100% Argan Oil, it quickly penetrated into my skin.

I've read some reviews that people are using this as a cuticle conditioner and seeing remarkable results in the improvements of their nails and cuticles.  The Argan Oil can also be used in the hair as a leave in conditioner, to calm frizzies and make hair stronger.  It's perfect in healing cracked heals and for chapped lips.  It is abundant is Vitamin E, fatty acids and antioxidants.

If you are interested in trying this miracle in a bottle, head on over to Amazon-Foxbrim's 100% Pure Argan Oil and purchase it today. 


Franklin's Gourmet Popcorn Review

I was SO surprised when I received my Franklin's Gourmet Pre-Packaged popcorn to try and review.  I thought I was only getting one bag, but instead, I received a box of 24 pre-packaged popcorn!  Of course, I could not wait to try this popcorn, to see if it was any different than the microwave version.

This Franklin's Gourmet Pre-Packaged popcorn did not disappoint.  It came with not only the corn kernels, but also the oil (which is organic, gluten free and no GMO).  The oil is coconut oil and made this popcorn taste just that much tastier!  Although the seasoning package was small, it gave the popcorn just the right amount of seasoning, without over seasoning.

Of course, when you use whole kernels instead of the microwave bag, you are going to spend a little more time, shaking the pot, and waiting for each kernel to pop.  Trust me, THIS IS ALL WORTH IT!.  And...did I mention, you better be prepared in sharing this with a family of four or be very hungry!  I was shocked how much this small pre-packaged popcorn made!  I mean, come on, two people cannot eat this popcorn alone!  This Franklin's Gourmet Pre-Packaged and Pre-Seasoned popcorn made a HUGE bowl full.  And even sharing with three other people, I still had lots of popcorn left.









If you are looking for a tasty, just-like-the-movies popcorn, head on over to Amazon-Franklin's Gourmet Pre-Packaged, Pre-Seasoned Popcorn.  You can pop this in a kettle or on the stove top, in a 6 quart pan.  Each package is Organic, contains no GMO, Gluten free, contains 100% coconut oil, a tri pouch which lets you control the salt content, Vegan and Kosher.

Taylor Bluetooth Body Fat Smart Scale Review

OMGosh!  What can I say about this scale but that it does it all!  I was so thrilled to get this Taylor Bluetooth Body Fat Smart Scale, that I couldn't wait to use it.  I've never used anything, much less a scale, to this caliber.

The Taylor Bluetooth Body Fat Scale not only records your body fat, but also records your weight, body water, age, sex and much more.  The first thing about this scale, is that you have to pair it with your phone that has a 4.0 Bluetooth capability.  I have an HTC One and I had no problem connecting the scale to my phone.  Next, I downloaded the MyFitnessApp.  This allows you to keep track of your food, weight, workouts and more.  Every time you weigh yourself, the scale records your progress and transmits it to the MyFitnessApp, if bluetooth is enabled and your device is within 30 feet of the scale.



Another thing I love about this scale is the appearance.  It has this elegant slim and sleek look. It's black with metal on each side, where you place your feet.  The metal plates sends electromagnetic waves, which reads your body fat.  The scale has a Cal-Max feature, which estimates the number of calories required, based on your body's composition and your personal data that was entered.
 
It also has an Athlete and Normal mode as well as Cloud Storage, interacts with other fitness apps and the ability to sync to your mobile device using Bluetooth 4.0 technology.  I am totally in love with this Taylor Bluetooth Body Fat Scale and do not ever want to do without it.

If you want to get your hands on this AWESOME scale that keeps track of your weight, calories, body fat and more, head on over to Amazon-Taylor Bluetooth Body Fat Smart Scale and grab yours today.  I promise....YOU WON'T BE SORRY.  It's probably one of the best investments you can make.

Fibrite Microfiber Mop with Bendable Mop Head

Yesterday, I received the Fibrite Microfiber Mop with Bendable Mop Head.  I got to test this mop out this morning and noticed how lightweight and easy it was to use.  The Microfiber mop goes from 30 inches to 49.5 inches.  The Fibrite Bendable Mop bemds 90 degrees, at both ends of the mop base, which allows you to get into those hard-to-reach places, such as corners and stairs.





Not only can you dry mop with this bendable microfiber mop, but you can also wet mop with it as well.  The mop pad is washable and reusable and is said to last through many many uses.  The microfiber bristle pad cleans your floors, leaving them shiny and clean.

I have used it as a dry mop, but not as a wet mop yet.  I'm anxious to see how well it does when wet mopping with it.  From my experience, this mop does do as it states, but the microfiber mop pad is a tad bit smaller than what I am used to.  I do, however, like how light it is and how easy it is to maneuver around corners and under tables and desks.

If you are interested in purchasing this Fibrite Microfiber Mop with a bendable mop head, that bends at 90 degrees, and picks up pet fur and leaves your floor clean and shiny, you can get yours, today, at Amazon-Fibrite Microfiber Mop with bendable mop head.
 

What's For Dinner....

I don't get to cook dinner as often as I like to, because my dear husband cooks it almost as soon as he gets home from work (2:00ish).  Let me explain and redeem myself here.  My husband gets up around 3:15 am and gets ready to head out for work around 3:40 am.  He is a route driver for a vending company and rarely eats while on the job.  He may grab something to drink, but rarely grabs anything to eat, as he is busy loading and unloading boxes of chips, snacks and sodas.

By the time he gets home, he is starved.  He may grab something from the fridge to snack on while preparing dinner.  In my defense, I have told him that I would cook as soon as I got home (4:35pm), but he insists he cooks when he gets home, because he cannot wait until I get home, cook and then eat.  I love to cook and love to come up with new recipes and ideas, but it seems like the only time I get to do what I love, is on the weekends or on my days off (like today!).

So...I am going to be making Mackerel cakes or patties.  I have had these ever since I was little and still love them today.  It's been awhile since we've had Salmon patties, but here is MY take on them.

INGREDIENTS:

2 cans Mackerel
Cracker or breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
Flour
Salt, pepper & seasonings

I start off by removing the little bones from the mackerel (they're not the type of sharp bones you find in catfish, they are more delicate).  Next, add your beaten egg and mix with your hands.  Don't be afraid to get a little messy!  I then add my salt, pepper and lemon pepper (you can add any seasoning here, just to get rid of the fish taste) and enough crushed crackers or breadcrumbs to hold the mixture together and I coat each side with flour.  This will give it a little outside crunch.

If you like onions, you can add some minced or chopped onions to your Mackerel, just make sure you don't cook the patties too long to where the onions end up blackened or burned.

I add enough oil to my iron skillet or non stick pan, just to cover the bottom and fry on medium heat.  Cook approximately 2-3 minutes on each side, or to the way you like them.  I tend to like my patty cakes more on the "less cooked side".  If you like your blackened and well done, go for it, but beware if you add onions, as they will make your whole patty taste crispy and burned and not to enjoyable to eat.

I can actually eat the Mackerel straight from the can, but that's another story.

Liztek Bluetooth Music Receiver Review

I have always wished there was a way, for me to listen to only the music I love on my truck's radio.  I don't have Bluetooth capability on my truck's radio, nor do I have Satellite radio.  Now, my car on the other hand, has both.

Many times I wish I could just turn on Satellite radio or just bluetooth my phone to the truck.  Although my Ford F150 is a 2005 model, it does not even have a place to plug in a USB device...how sad!

That is why I was excited to try out the Liztek Bluetooth Music Receiver.  This little baby will play any songs that I have on my phone or play from an 80's or 90's music radio from my phone, all by transmitting through bluetooth!  No wire, no cables, just a simple bluetooth transmission!

I first paired my phone with the Liztek Bluetooth Music Reciever, then I took it out to my truck to see if it would read from my phone.  First day...couldn't get a darn thing working...second day, same thing.  I just couldn't figure out why this thing wasn't working.  Am I doing something wrong?  YEP!  apparently, silly me, didn't realize I had to turn my radio to AUX!  And yep, you guessed it, the little bluetooth music receiver began transmitting music, through the truck's speakers, from my phone.


The Liztek Bluetooth Music Receiver comes with a 3.5mm stereo output and a cable for charging up the device.  I would suggest charging up the device as soon as you pair it and as soon as you get it.  The Bluetooth Music Receiver is said to transmit up to 33 feet, with line of sight.  It plugs into any A/V receiver, stereo system or speaker, using the 3.5mm jack.  It is compatible with iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad and Android.

If you are interested in purchasing the Liztek Bluetooth Music Receiver, you can grab yours today at Amazon - Liztek Bluetooth Music Receiver.

Car Seat Back Protector and Cover Review

Have you ever had skid marks or foot prints on the back of your car or truck seat?  You know, when little ones (and sometimes adults) kick the back of your seat and then you have either dirty footprints and marks on the back of your vehicle seat?  Sometimes you just wish you had something to just protect your seats when you have wild little feet all over them.

I had the opportunity to try out the Car Seat Back Protector/Cover by Dot & Dot.  This seat protector and cover, for the back of your vehicle seat, is compatible and is said to fit most vehicles, even SUVs. The Extra Large Kick Mat is 18.5 x 23.6 inches and is said to last a LIFETIME!  The Mat is easy to clean by using wipes or by washing with cold water and a mild dergent.

Installation of the mat is very simple.  The Extra Large Kick Mat has two adjustable straps that secures around the headrest and the bottom of the seats.  The kick mat is water resistant, made of high quality materials and is very durable and tough to withstand kicks from little feets.



This Car Seat Back Protector covers the whole back of my Ford F150 seat and installing it took less than 2 minutes.
