We finally had a chance to do the Crated With Love Box.  It was so great to spend time together, with some fun activities!  I really enjoyed it, and there was so much to do.  The Date Night box, was just the perfect thing to get us motivated.  The price is great too. Crated with Love has been out since 2014, and this was our second box.  We had a box a few years ago, and this one was just as much fun as the last one.  The Carnival Themed, Crated with Love, was more than I expected.  It really was a lot of fun.  Sometimes, when you don’t have the kids, you don’t want to go out, but you still want to do something.  Well, our son stayed right next door, at Gram and Pap’s house.  So, we would’ve left, and he would’ve been calling.  This way, we were able to stay home, and have just as much fun.  We followed our box, by watching a movie. I loved the games, in this box.  It was so much fun.  And, it was like the fun never ended.  We saved the box, for our next date night.  It’s a super…

We’ve had so much fun, this Summer, playing with PlaSmart’s Watermelon Ball Jr.  My 7 year old really enjoyed the fun that he and his 21 year old sister had with it.  She said those memories will always be there.  They not only swam with it, but played with it in the yard.  Between rolling it back and forth, and tossing it, I don’t know which one they enjoyed more. I love PlaSmart.  They have so many fun things to purchase for all aged families.  Go to their page, and click on “Products” to get the complete list.  But, man, they have some great products. We even have a Plasmacar.  Jacob has had this for a few years.  He and his sister used to ride on it together.  It was so much fun to watch them. There are so many wonderful things at PlaSmart.  You really should go check them out.

Do you watch Once Upon A Time?  It’s my mother’s in law favorite show.  She never misses it, so when I found out this season was coming to DVD, I had to get it for her.  I love the storyline!  And, how it’s based on Fairytales.  My mother in law has been watching since the very first season.  Now she will own the final season. And They Lived Happily Ever After was my favorite episode.  It had so much pizzazz.  I really enjoyed watching the entire season, with my mother in law, though. Celebrate the epic adventure and enduring magic as television’s most bewitchingly tangled tale concludes in “ABC’s “Once Upon a Time: The Complete Seventh and Final Season.” A few years after the Final Battle in Storybrooke, a grown-up Henry Mills leaves home in search of his own destiny. What he finds is true love with a new incarnation of Cinderella and unexpected danger from her hateful stepmother and stepsister—plus the added menace of Mother Gothel, a villainous sorceress. And when a new Dark Curse erases his and everyone else’s memories, it’s up to Henry and Cinderella’s daughter Lucy, with the help of Regina, Wish-Realm Hook, Gold and Zelena,…

I’ve really enjoyed watching Scandal, so when I found out the final 2 seasons were on DVD, I had to own them.  Kerry Washington is one of my favorite actresses, and she did this part complete justice.  I really enjoy watching her in Scandal. “Scandal: The Complete Sixth Season”          The line between predator and prey dissolves into a struggle for survival in the riveting sixth season of ABC’s Scandal. Despite Olivia Pope’s (Kerry Washington) best efforts, Frankie Vargas wins the Presidency; however, all bets are off when he’s assassinated. And as the conspirators escalate their tactics, Olivia Pope alienates her O.P.A. “gladiators” by fully embracing her dark side as “the most powerful person in the world.” Viewers will enjoy all 16 episodes, as they surrender to the riveting labyrinth of obsessive passion and wickedly decadent fun. Bonus extras include extended episode “Transfer of Power” and deleted scenes.                                                “Scandal: The Complete and Final Seventh Season”    Savor the last, decadent drops of the most satisfying TV show, Scandal: The Complete Seventh and Final Season. A new era begins as Mellie Grant becomes President. But the real authority lies with the new, self-appointed head of B613: Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington). Unfortunately,…

Everything But The Bagel is super tasty, and my mother in law agrees!  We bought plain bagels, and toasted, then buttered the top, and dipped with Everything But The Bagel.  It was super delicious!  There was a little Onion taste, mixed with all the other great things that come on bagels.  My mother in law even puts it on plain toast.  Says it gives the toast “added flavor.” I will continue to purchase Everything But The Bagel, as well as other items from Pereg.  The prices are great, for the amount that you get, and you couldn’t ask for a better flavor! My mother in law already asked for the site, so she could see what else they have.  There’s so much to choose from, and it all looks devine!  I can’t wait to get some of the other products, that I’ve been looking at, and try them all. You get 5.3 ounces, and that has lasted us a good while.  We don’t add a ton, just enough to give our food some added flavor.  My mother in law, even put some in her pasta sauce.  It gave it a great flavor.  I wish I would’ve thought of that sooner….

  About the movie: All Clara (Mackenzie Foy) wants is a key – a one-of-a-kind key that will unlock a box that holds a priceless gift. A golden thread, presented to her at godfather Drosselmeyer’s (Morgan Freeman) annual holiday party, leads her to the coveted key—which promptly disappears into a strange and mysterious parallel world. It’s there that Clara encounters a soldier named Phillip (Jayden Fowora-Knight), a gang of mice and the regents who preside over three Realms: Land of Snowflakes, Land of Flowers and Land of Sweets. Clara and Phillip must brave the ominous Fourth Realm, home to the tyrant Mother Ginger (Helen Mirren), to retrieve Clara’s key and hopefully return harmony to the unstable world. Starring Keira Knightley as the Sugar Plum Fairy, Disney’s new holiday feature film “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” is directed by Lasse Hallström and Joe Johnston, and inspired by E.T.A. Hoffmann’s classic tale.

My mother in law has been using Relaxium for about 3 weeks now.  It’s not habit forming, and she loves it.  She has a hard time sleeping, so she said she wanted to try Relaxium.  I gave it to her, and she said, sure enough, she’s getting a great night’s sleep.  And, waking up feeling refreshed. She also said, she falls asleep rather fast, and stays asleep.  Not waking up every hour, on the hour.  Which is what she was looking for.  She takes my son to school every morning, and I can’t have her tired, while she’s driving.  She said, “don’t worry, I feel like a new woman when I wake up”.  That’s great to hear for those having trouble sleeping. The price is great!  You couldn’t ask for a better price, and you can get an additional 10% off, with the pop up.  That’s fantastic savings, for a product that actually works. I’m sure you will love Relaxium, just as much as my mother in law. Relaxium is the only sleep aid developed by a clinical Neurologist.  I know my mother in law loves Relaxium, and she didn’t even know that fact. Ingredients found in Relaxium: • Ashwagandha •…
