Brocato Vibrastrait Hair Straightener Review
Brocato Vibrastrait Hair Straightener Review Ladies…….who’s ready for a silky hair revolution!? I am dying to tell you about the most fabulous hair straightener I have EVER used in the past 8 years. I am Really Into the Brocato Vibrastrait, a silk-plated, vibrating hair straightener. My teenage cousin first introduced it to me when styling my hair. I bought one at Ulta the very next day. I’m telling you….it has transformed my hair! Good Vibrations The purpose of the vibrating plates is to help separate the hairs, making it easier and more effective at straightening. With my thick hair, this feature makes the entire hair-straightening process faster. I no longer…
Most Comfortable Bras – Natori Bra Review
Most Comfortable Bras – Natori Bra Review Are you here for a bra review? Well, you’re in the right place. Over half the world’s population wears bras, right? So why the heck don’t we talk about bras, boobs, coverage, support & comfort more often? The other day Jessica & I were talking about work out gear, sweating & bras. Girl Talk to the extreme. Jessica’s been with me bra shopping numerous times. It’s always a pain. You get measured every time, don’t you? It takes forever & I swear I NEVER have the same measurements. When you factor in my larger boobs (D cup), nursing two kids, weight loss, weight…
Purple Carrot Plant-Based Meal Delivery Review
Purple Carrot Plant-Based Meal Delivery Review We are all about the meal delivery plans. Long ago, Jessica told me all about Blue Apron & Plated. My friend Cassandra raves about Freshly & Jessica is giving Hello Fresh a try very soon! You get it. We like the convenience of someone else picking out recipes & having the ingredients delivered straight to our door. While I love my Blue Apron & Plated meals, I really wanted to try Purple Carrot. Years ago, I ate a Vegan diet for about 8 weeks. While I felt great, I ran out of recipes SUPER fast, so it was a challenge to keep the veggies creative, tasty…
Freshly Review
Freshly Review Soon after the birth of my second child, I realized two things. The first is that it is possible to function on two hours of sleep for months at a time, all-be-it poorly. I actually forgot my NAME! The second is that no matter how hard I tried to cook, I simply couldn’t find the energy or time. And let’s be honest, the last thing a sleep deprived person needs to be around is sharp knives, boiling water and a flaming hot burner. It’s like a bad episode of Mr. Magoo. Add to it the stress of also having another child to take care of and you’ve got…
SAF Red Instant Yeast
SAF Red Instant Yeast This is a blog post about yeast. Exciting, huh? Well, this is going to be the best-damned post about yeast you’ve ever read, so buckle up, my friend! We’ve all seen those little tiny tearaway packets of yeast at the grocery store, right? There are usually 3 per pack and they look like very large condom wrappers. For years, this is the yeast I used. I would make homemade pizza dough with the same ingredients, same temperature & each one would come out differently. One would be fine, another would be dense & the other would get thrown away. It is so frustrating! Anyone who bakes puts…
Grove Collaborative Review
Grove Collaborative Review I, like many others, am concerned about what I bring into my home. There are so many products out there today that claim to be “all natural” or “plant-derived”, but what does that really mean? I pay special attention to cleaning products because they are filled with the most unnecessary chemicals. Recently I saw a Facebook ad for Grove Collaborative, an online store focused on healthy, natural cleaning products. I instantly recognized some of the brands I use, and there was a free gift with purchase, so I decided to give it a try. About Grove Collaborative Grove Collaborative is a company based out of San Francisco…
Bonavita 8 Cup Thermal Carafe Coffee Brewer Review
Really Into Coffee To say that we are Really Into coffee in this house is an understatement. Occasionally we will go to a coffee shop for a latte or other specialty drink, but mostly we are brewing at home. We, like many others, start off every morning with a hot cup. I take one cup with me to work, but Mark tends to have a couple few cups to get his day started. He also likes the process of brewing a fresh pot. Picking out nice beans and grinding them at home is essential to our routine. Mark has a certain way he measures, packs the coffee grounds into the…
Chantecaille Skincare Review
Let’s get started with this Chantecaille Skincare Review. First, I have to admit that I am the furthest thing from a beauty expert. The truth is, my makeup usually expires before I use half of it. I depend on my girlfriends for the newest recommendations on all things beauty. I’m also known to peruse the Nordstrom beauty counter for samples & new products, which is where I discovered Chantecaille. Dry, Sensitive, Acne Prone Skin To say that I have dry, sensitive skin is an understatement. I’ve spent years trying to find a moisturizer that actually works. When I moved up to Portland, Oregon a few years ago, my skin…

Brandless Review
Brandless Review I am all about convenience, especially when it comes to shopping. I work quite a bit, so having to spend my precious little free time at the grocery store is not appealing. The reason why I LOVE using Plated is because it not only saves me time, it gives me some variety and quality product. When I first saw an ad for Brandless, I was immediately intrigued and I knew I had to do a Brandless Review. How could I resist an ironic trademark brand name Brandless?? What Is Brandless? Brandless is just what it sounds like: products sold without a brand name. What instantly caught my attention was,…
SmashMallows
SmashMallows We are Really Into snacking. We are Really Into trying new snacks (hello Lay’s Do Us A Flavor). When we go on a camping trip, we basically eat only snacks the whole time. So when Sarah and I made a trip into town while camping because we needed mustard for our hot dogs, naturally we bought a couple of snacks. When we saw fancy flavored marshmallows in the checkout line, we knew we had to try them. The hardest part was picking two flavors of SmashMallows. Even Sarah and I have limits. What is a SmashMallow? SmashMallows are gourmet, flavored marshmallows made in Sonoma, California. They are made…
