keurig review ( special edition )

BEST HUBBY EVER (; my christmas present was so excited ! 
i am the only coffee drinker in my house and if u are like me this will be amazing for u !!! 
i normally drink 3 cups a day or 16 dollars a day at starbucks /: this saves me a lot and best coffee i have had !!! 
he got this at walmart for 149.00 but can be found everywhere i am sure ! 
here is what the box looks like 



 there are a lot of extras u can buy different holders for the k-cups ( k-cups ) are what u use for the coffee comes in many flavors and brands !!!!
u can also buy a filter for this as well but the k-cups i love no mess fast and easy !
i am going to get a holder for them tho as they can take up some room
 this also comes with 3 books one tells u all the different brands of coffee and all about them
one directions ( u wont need that its soooo easy !!! )
and a owners manual
 inside ( the yellow book ) shopping guide u will find u get free k cups when u buy them online when u register ur brewer (: anything free is good ! after u by ur first 2 and get ur free ones
the cheapest place i found to buy the k-cups are here k-cups cheap ! trust me im into coupon and best site fast shipping ! love it !!!! grocery stores have these so over priced and well i order most everything online 
 here is where the water is stored and there is a led light so water lights up prob one of my fav features on this makes it look so sleek and love it !!
 nice design ! black led lights and Crome couldnt do any better other than maybe hot pink ?? LOL
the handle lifts up add ur k cup in close and select size u want to brew yes that easy !!!
 when the handle it up the led screen says not ready (:
if u are low on water this screen will also let u know
u can also set time to brew so if u get up and want coffee everyday at 7am guess what it will be ready for u AMAZING ! but if not u can brew in about 2 mins or less !
when u first start it will take about 3 mins ( if that to heat up water )
or u can leave water always warm so it is always ready for u !
and not just coffee ! u can make hot chocolate , tea , coffee , iced coffee or iced tea !!!! so whole family will use !! only 4 buttons on this top is on and off bottom of screen is just menu button for time , settings and timers
u can also control the temperature of the water !!! LOVE this cause i like to drink as soon as its done and don't want to burn my mouth or if im heading out and want to keep hot longer i can set it for a hotter higher setting great thought on that !
 close the lid now im ready to brew as it tells me simple right!? select ur size of cup i alway do big far right but there is 4 oz far left 8 oz middle and then the 12 oz far right (: click it once screen will say brewing and tell u when it is done it is quit for the most part until the end but hey fast and quit for the most part its a pass in my mind !!! !
 the donut shop by far is one of my favorite coffees !!!!!! it will poke a whole in the top
 and a hole in the bottom and pushes water with force to brew ur coffee i love the taste of this coffee rather than a slow drip so much more flavor amazing idk how i lived without one !!! honest
i was hesitent being this is about 150 for a coffee maker and i am only one who drinks it but wow hot chocolate , tea , and iced drinks from hubby to my kids we all love it ! so fast and great
 the catch pan at the bottom is for spills u and i have never had one verry clean machine !!!!!!! no mess and no clean up other than i noticed the stainless handle does get smudged but not bad
 if u do use a travel taller mug u will have to remove the bottom drip pan no worries slides in and out with no thought!
 and my coffee was made and drank fast and ready to make another fast
 random but my best coffee creamer hands down is coffee mate french vanilla yummmm~
 so u dont even have to hit a button in the morning for coffee to be done u will start out with a cup of coffee and a smile and end with a empty coffee mug yet still a smile (:

my youtube review video and demo 

100% would recommend best coffee maker ever !!!!!!!! hands down and no im not sponsored we bought ourselves and i would buy another (: great functions love the led lights !!! looks great on my counter great selection of coffee ! love the no thought and no mess just easy !!! thanks for reading i hope this was helpful if u have one leave me a comment love to hear how u love urs im sure u do ! if u have yet to get one put it at the top of ur list u will use it daily !!!! <3

product review hello kitty microwave cute but useful?


ok so we all know i love hello kitty 
so knowing when i saw this i needed it in my kitchen ! a hello kitty microwave who wouldnt love this !!!? 
i bought this years ago at target they still have it ! 
i think it is 80 dollars good price for this size i guess little more than most this size because its cute i would guess ha 
my husband told me b4 we bought idk y u want this the one we had b4 this was a 1500 or 1800watt so going from that to a 700 watt one he wasn't thrilled but as a great hubby as he is he said whatever u want as he don't cook or go in the kitchen i handle it all he said i would be the one to deal with it ...
so i smiled as we bought it and he shook his head 
well i hated to admit it was so cute but WOW this sucks it takes forever to heat up water or anything if u use ur microwave and like it to be funcable this is NOT the microwave for u looks cute as decoration but not practical to use :( 

if i would do this all over again i would get another big watt one a plate barley fits in here and idk just not amazing but if u go off looks more so than function ( like i did ) then u will like it but good luck waiting forever to warm up water for a hot chocolate or ne thing it isnt the best ! i wish they would make a big watt one like at least 1200 or something better than 700 but i don't see it happening 

started my christmas wrapping ...

i will be doing my christmas hauls on this blog 
as i wrap i will list on here show what i got as a little haul 
and closer to christmas i will edit all clips together and show all together for what i bought to give away for christmas 
first starts off my christmas wrapping is for my cats ... their stocking isnt done yet but this is a start lol 
i have so much to buy yet and just didn't get in the mood to start yet o well either way 
my stocking stuffers started at dollar tree where i picked all this up ! cant beat the price and animals wont know where u bought it (;
i have 2 cats my one cat nermal doesn't like to open gifts however my cat who is always into everything ! and u know what i mean if u are on my Facebook LOL ninja loves to get into ne thing he can so he loves to rip open his gifts on christmas morning ....
i got him a little feather wand and it is so soft was impressed with how it was made ! 1 dollar 
i got him a collar with a bell on it haha that drives him nuts he always wonders where the ringing comes from and somehow my Chihuahua always helps him bite the bell off /: ( partners in crime ! ) 
then i got him a little hamster omg this is too cute !!! and u pull the string and moves along the floor he will love that and lastly i got him a dog ahaha kindof put me in mine of my Chihuahua ( owdie ) they are always together so maybe he will like this toy he has a pet mouse he carries around everywhere and it has a hole in it and stuffing is gone so trying to replace that but idk how it will go over (; sometimes u cant make up for a good old toy lol but that is what is going in his stocking so far will post more pics as i get them ! dollar tree has alot of cute toys for ur pets check them out and a dollar on each item is amazing we all know how i love the dollar tree !! 


i will make videos of nija opening and playing with his toys ! and add into my christmas vlog for sure
thanks for reading

iphone 4s vs iphone 4 review and siri review



i had a iphone 4 i recently went to the iphone 4s because i was up for a upgrade and wanted to go to a white one ! i love love love my iphone 100% would never go to another phone but is there a big difference compared to just the 4 vs 4s? i went to the 64 gb because i like to have alot of storage and do everything from my phone , i also went to white and im undecided if i like the white or the black better i honestly only went to the white one because there is no other white phone not going to lie lol but still my 4s is just like my 4 and really you would not notice the difference .. the camera is spouts to be better and i take pictures all the time but i honestly do not see a huge difference in that i do notice it is a bit faster not a huge difference but it is a bit faster .. now the big difference and main reason it got me to change over is siri .. u can get apps just like siri but what made me really want to upgrade ... this is fun i do use it all the time u can use it to set alarms ask to google something for u set timers call text and alot of random questions which i did when i got just to have fun and play around ... below i posted some questions i asked and the answers i got back ... but this siri is verry good i dont have any problems with her not understanding what i am asking i love it when i am driving for texting all i do is talk and she sends it and just for everything my phone is my life i use it for gps and everything and love it !!! im glad i switched but is it worth a 400 dollar ungrade ? if u dont see yourself using siri all the time i would say no u are okay with the 4 until the 5 comes out next year but it is fun and so helpful ! here are some random questions i asked lol to screen shot u hit the home button and the top button at same time and will snap a pic of ur screen








arm and hammer dryer cloths


i am always on the search for the perfect softener ! as much as we hate doing laundry we do it everyday ... i honestly never thought dryer sheets really helped i always thought as long as u had a good softener it would be fine .. until i found these !!! best of both worlds and are amazing !!! these put u in mine of baby wipes they come in a plastic container then a bag seal just like wipes they look like wipes and smell almost like them ( better ) but u add in ur dryer and omg amazing i got these at cvs they were buy one get one free then i had coupons onto of that only reason i tried these is because they were so cheap but normally like 5 dollars each ! but i would recommend and repurchase as i have full price ! they are for sure worth all 100% of 5 dollars it really only takes one to make all ur load of cloths to smell and feel amazing the smell last a long time and makes ur cloths feel soft and just so refreshing lol let me know if u try them out !

bath and body works haul !


they have the cutest wallflowers right now for the holidays !!!! some of them light up others do not the gingerbread man is to cute it does not light up




i got the gingerbread man the snowflakes light up ! i got a clear and a blue then i got a christmas tree .. i also got the car cupcake clip smells so good ! and the wallflower scents i got where just gingerbread cookie and is amazing ! they are on sale 6 for 24 ! i also had a 10 dollar off 30 coupon so great deal for your house and gifts !!!



best phone protector !

i have tried SO many protectors !!! the best one i always go back to is the invisible shield by zagg !!!! i bought this at verizon but they also sell at best buy and online ! i have just got this for my iphone 4s but have had them for a long time ! i have for my ipads and my other iphone and they are on my ipods ! best protectors also if something happens to them they send u another ! lifetime warranty ! amazing i have only had to get one replacement and that was because my 4 yr old pulled off the cover for the ipad /: other than that it would have lasted me as long as the ipad !




this is the full body but they also just have the screen if u like just that ! i am not good at putting things like this on my husband does them but they come in 3 layers so makes it easy to apply and they are labeled on the sticker as u apply so u can tell exactly where to place also comes with a rubber scrapper to get bubbles out ! they also sell shield spray ( it came with my ipad cover ) this was easy as well and did i say lifetime warranty ? i bought this myself not sponsored !!! they are a bit expensive but worth it only one u will have to buy as long as u keep the phone .. i keep my phone in my pocket alot and this cover corners never caught or ne thing ! would recommend and would repurchase as i have many of times hope this was helpful

check out there site they also have videos on how to apply www.zagg.com

eos shaving cream

my thoughts on the eos shave creme ... this you can use wet or dry they come in many scents they have
vanilla bliss
sensitive fragrance free
lavender jasmine
island blue
cucumber mellon
pomegranate raspberry
so 6 in total ...
i have tried 2/6 this is my thoughts
i have the vanilla bliss and pomegranate raspberry
from the bottle ...So moisturizing, you can shave wet or dry, leaving skin soft and smooth
Non-foaming cream enriched with natural aloe, oat, and shea butter soothes while boosting skin's moisture level
Antioxidant vitamins E & C help skin look radiantly healthy
Comes in a soft-touch recyclable bottle that won't leave a rust ring in your tub
Paraben-free
Phthalate-free.




i tried these out a few times i was excited to try because i have always loved the bottles ( i know im a package nut ! ) the package is to cute has grips so easy to hold in the shower also has a pump witch i love ! this is a lotion type of shave ... but i was hoping it would be a bit thicker i found it hard to shave in the shower and i like to be able to tell where i am shaving with this you cant ! the smell however is amazing ! i would pick the skintimate cream shave lotion over this !!!!!! after i got out of the shower using the eos
about a half hour later my legs were so hot and itchy ! i in no way have sensitive skin !!! i have never broke out with anything other than this !!!! my legs were so bad i have 9 bottles of these LOL i got them when they were on sale at rite aid for 99 cents ! but these normally run 4.99 price varies on where u buy !
i would NEVER buy this item again i didnt like the formula and top it off i broke out so bad !

this also clogged up my razor so bad !
idk a fail in my mind but i have also done a video review some love some hate a hit and miss i guess but for me its a pass
i do love they dont test on animals tho ! ill stick with eos lip balms and leave out the shaving cream and stick to my skintimate thanks for reading

free cough drops at rite aid and chocolate ?

i got these this week at rite aid free after up rewards ! where 1.50 then got back 1.50 i have been sick and these being mint chocolate just looked good i tried them today and was impressed with the flavor and how they work will for sure buy again ! is a bit of a cough drop taste not over whelming and good chocolate mint taste alot better than standard cough drops these helped me alot ! love them would recommend and rebuy !

free rite aid hand santizer ? but is it worth it


ok so i got this for free at rite aid last week ( limit was 4 so i got 4 of these ) and so upset i used this only 5 times and OMG this is the worst i have ever tried !! and i like rite aid brands in alot of things but wow not this it is soo drying and made my hands crack and i don't have senisitive skin this is bad i will donate my other 3 bottles i have ... this was 1 dollar and you got a dollar back and even with them giving this item to me i would never buy this or give it to ne one i care about /: not worth cracking ur hands !!!

zarbees all natural cough syrup


i just bought this 2 days ago from rite aid it was 5.99 and u will get back 5.99 with a mail in rebate so is it worth it ? my son started getting sick yesterday he was coughing so bad i decided to try this out rather than his regular medicine ... i gave this to him and he was still coughing and it didnt stop at all just got worst . i didn't find this to help out at all ! and it seemed pointless on giving it to him after i found out it wasn't helping him ;( me being a mom you like natural things but u also want something that works and sadly this did not work out for us ! i would never buy this again i wouldn't recomend and i would never rebuy this item im glad i got it for free at least cause if i paid 6 dollars for this i would have been upset ! for me i hate this let me know if u tried this and if it worked out for your kids
