Just in Time for Christmas, Blast!
2018 Holiday Gift Guide / December 11, 2018

I love our Blast system.  It’s super cool, and my 7 year old adores it too.  It brings back memories of when I was young, playing Atari.  Now I can have those memories with my son.  He loves Pac-Man, and DigDug.  I remember DigDug!  I used to play it in the bowling alley, while my parents played on a league.  Now, as I said, my 7 year old just loves this! Along with Pac-Man, and DigDug, comes 4 more games, including:  Galaxian, Mappy, Skykid, and Galaca.  This is going to be cool for the winter.  My son has actually picked this over his big name game system.  I love that he loves playing these games.  And, my mother in law, she wants the one with Space Invaders on it.  So, guess what I’ll be ordering next. There’s even one with Pit Fall, that was my favorite on our Intelevision System.  I used to play it for hours, and now I can again.  Along with several other favorites.  I will own all of the Blast Games.  I’ll have one hooked up to each television, in my home.  How can you not consider these some great memories? The graphics are cool, and the hook…

Exec Socks will make you feel like an Executive, no matter what position you hold
2018 Holiday Gift Guide / December 11, 2018

I love Exec Socks, and I love the subscription box.  This is great.  Wonderful, new socks delivered, snail mail, every month.  I can wear them with my dress shoes, boots, or tennis shoes.  And, the comfort that they hold, is grand. Exec Socks are my new go to brand.  And, I’ve been asked where to get these exact socks.  I knew I loved them, but for someone to walk up to me in Target, and say, “Did you get those here?” was something else.  I did give them my business card, and told them that the review would be up today!  I love my job(s). The Subscription box is only $10 a month, or $17 for 2 pairs, and you will get fresh socks delivered to you, in a timely manner.  I couldn’t believe how fast mine got here.

We’ve got your feet covered. Whether you just need a…

Gaming Headphones for Christmas
2018 Holiday Gift Guide / December 10, 2018

Did you get someone a Gaming System this year?  Then you definitely need the Audio-Technica Gaming Headphones.  These headphones are crystal clear, and so easy to speak into.  I love the sound quality, and the way my friends say they can hear me clearly, as well. I’m going to have to get a second pair, for my son.  He will love the sound quality, as the cheap headphones we normally buy do not have this high quality sound.  I can’t believe how clear they truly are, and worth every penny. You can see that there is a sound control switch, to make sure you have the headphones at the right level, for your comfort.  There’s a plug, to plug into your controller.  And the all important, microphone!  These are the perfect gift for any gamer in your life.  I had to have a pair, and I’m an avid gamer. My son will be all ready for Christmas, once I order his pair.  I already got him all the essentials for the system (controllers, hard drive, and controller charger), just need to order these high-tech gaming headphones, so he’ll have the clarity of sound, that I have. Features include: Large-diameter 44…

I recently received the 5-Ingredient Instant Pot Cookbook, which works out perfect, since my significant other bought me an instant pot for my birthday.  I’ve been trying out these recipes, and they are perfect every time.  There are 150 Easy, Quick & Delicious recipes including in the book. My family loves when I cook out of the book, because the meals are moist, delicious, and take no time to make.  Even Sarah, my 21 year old, has cooked out of the book, and I don’t normally let her touch my kitchen accessories, but I want her to get used to the Instant Pot, since she’ll be getting one soon. There’s everything in the 5-Ingredient Instant Pot Cookbook.  From Homemade Yogurt, to Rice Pudding.  If you can dream it up, chances are, it’s in there.

I love my new Eat Smart Precision Tracker Digital Bathroom Scale.  It is perfect for my household, who is obsessed with weight.  We each weigh ourselves once a week, and this scale is perfect.  I love that I’ve lost 3 pounds since weighing myself with it. Eat Smart has a lot of wonderful products.  Scales are my favorite though.  I get a new one every Christmas, even though there’s a two year warranty.  And, I always get Eat Smart. Their scales have weight tracking, for up to 2 users.  We have 3 of us, but I keep my weight in a journal, the other two keep theirs tracked on the scale.  These scales are so beautiful, and worth the money.  Not expensive either.

Handcrafted Lip Balms A Collection of All-Natural Recipes
2018 Holiday Gift Guide / December 6, 2018

My 21 year old, daughter, loves her DIY kit.  The Handcrafted Lip Balms were perfect for her to make this time of year.  She can give them out for Christmas gifts, and they are hand made, and from the heart.  She loved receiving this kit, and opening it, and making it.  She says it was easy to do, and so much fun. The kit included everything she needed to make five round lip balms.  They are super fashionable, and made of beeswax.  I love the one she gave me, it’s in my purse.  And, it’s almost like a story book, for the packaging.  It’s really neat. The price is an excellent value, and you’d pay more to buy 5 lip balms, than putting yourself out there, to make them. She actually handed these out early, to the family, and everyone loves them.  My mom said she loves the scent, and the way it makes her lips feel when she puts it on.  My sister said “Wow Sarah, I didn’t know you were this talented, thanks!” DIY natural beauty has never been easier, or more fun! Handcrafted Lip Balms includes the pods, beeswax, and mold to make your own all-natural lip balms, with…

The Blu Ray Disc, Deluxe Edition of  The Original Christmas Specials Collection is wonderful.  It brings back so many memories, and now I’m making those memories with my children.  Even though my daughter is in her 20s, she still loves to sit down and watch these animated flicks with my 7 year old, and me. My favorite has always been Frosty the Snowman, while my daughter’s favorite is The Little Drummer Boy, and Jacob, my 7 year old, well he’s not sure which one he likes most.  We’ve watched this Blu Ray about 15 times already, but I keep wanting to go back for more.  And, it’s so cute, that I’ve ordered one for my best friend’s daughter, for Christmas. There’s tons of bonuses on this Blu Ray, and the discs are inexpensive.  Get yours in time for Christmas.
