3 and 10 Gallon Garbage Bags


I got the privilege to try out 3 gallon trash bags from Candyseason on Amazon and also 10 gallon garbage bags from Homeproduct.Good on Amazon. Both sets are nicely made and come in a sheer blue color. They are very strong and of high quality.



We think both bags provide exactly what we need in our house. Reliable, and strong so we don't need to worry about ripping. My kids have a habit of stuffing as much in the kitchen garbage as possible as if changing the bag will kill them. So we did see the ultimate test of having the bag overstuffed and still no rips or tears! I am impressed! With a large count behind the bags you can't go wrong! With the 3 gallon bags you get 240 of them. With the 10 gallon bags you get 120 of them. 

Here are two videos my wonderful daughter did of both sets of bags. Please bare with her as she is camera shy :)








You can purchase these awesome 3 gallon bags from here and the great 10 gallon bags from here.



I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free or discounted for the purpose of this review. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Non-stick Square Muffin Baking Pan with Double-sided Spatula Review


I love baking. It's something I do often and usually it's not even for myself it's more for the kids and hubby. So when presented with the idea of reviewing this set I was more then happy to do so. After all this pan is for baking but it also can be used for so much more! The Double-sided spatula is perfect. I didn't get pictures of me mixing the batter together however I used the larger end of the spatula to do that and it blended everything together fast. I didn't need to search to make sure there wasn't any batter balls which is a first for me so it shows just how well it works. Plus once I was done mixing the batter it didn't stick to the spatula. I can not tell you how many times I have had to dirty an additional spoon to get unmixed batter off my mixing spoon but not anymore! Once done with the batter I just slipped off the end of the spatula that I was using so that I can use the other side without getting batter on me when the muffins are done. Since the pan is non-stick I wanted to give it the ultimate test and use it right out of packaging, after washing it of course. So that is exactly what I did. I did not add any butter, flour, or Pam to the bottom of my pan. I just poured my Lemon Poppy Seed batter into each spot. Then placed it in the oven for the directed time.


Here are my results. Can you smell it? Well I can and it smells delicious! Each muffin cooked evenly. I didn't have to worry about one not being done. Plus I really like the idea of not having to cut individual pieces or even have to waste paper liners. This pan so far is perfect. However the real test is still to come. Will the muffins stick to the pan or will I be able to get them out easily?


If you said I'd be able to get them out easily you were right. I did have to use the silicone spatula to release the edges from the pan but after that they came right up. The smaller end of the double-sided spatula proved to be just the right size. As you can see I removed one and there is barely anything stuck to the pan. As I am lifting the second one out you can see how easily it comes up.


Still lifting it's looking good so far. Nothing sticking. All sides cooked to perfection.


Here we have it second muffin out and the same results. Overall this pan has won me over that is for sure! Breakfast, dinners, and even deserts are going to get a lot more interesting around here in a good way.

Peppermint & Lavender Essential Oils Review #essentialoils





 Essential Oils are all the rave right now. I mean why wouldn't they be. They smell amazing and they can heal minor ailments and even alter your mood. I got to test out InstaNaturals Peppermint and Lavender essential oils. I personally love how Lavender oil smells it's just heavenly. I like to place a few drops on a microwave heat pack I have and use it before bed. It especially works great when I can't sleep. Peppermint oil is great for clearing sinuses and also headaches/migraines but you do have to be careful with this one and test your limits. First time I used peppermint oil I used a little too much and actually gave myself a headache. So do test a little at a time. Every month we change our central air filters and I love to put a few drops on it so the air can filter the scent throughout our house. Plus it helps the whole family avoid head colds or sinus issues. Now if you want the best of both words take these two bottles to the bathroom draw yourself a nice warm bath and add a few drops of both for an amazing relaxing bath. Seriously you have got to try it. I felt so relaxed and I even get a better nights sleep after taking a bath with both. I love this brand as I actually own a lot of their products. They never cease to impress me. If you are looking for a reliable essential oil I highly recommend InstaNatural

La Pedi Bon Review #pedicure






Who doesn't love smooth feet? My husband has rough hard skin on his feet we have tried everything from creams and lotions to different soaking methods nothing worked. That is until now!



Of course he was a little hesitant at trying this product thinking it would hurt but I tried it first and once he seen it wasn't going to rip the skin off his feet he gave it a go. Now I can't seem to get him to stop! He goes at it every time he feels his feet aren't baby smooth anymore so I'd say about twice a week at most he is using it since he spends just about all of his waking hours on his feet, it takes a toll on his feet.



I can't get over how easy and how well it works. His feet really are smooth again. The product can be used on dry or wet skin we have only tried it on dry. It did help remove his callus'. Overall it's a great product and we highly recommend it.

KUKPO Can Opener Review #KUKPO






I always thought a can opener is a can opener they all did the same thing so there is no difference right? Wrong! I've had tons of can openers it seems like I replace them more often then any other tool in my kitchen and now I know why. I've been buying all the wrong ones! KUKPO is seriously high end I could tell the very first time I used it. The way it glided open my can with ease. It was a first for me. Its nice and sturdy and has a great weight to it. It was easy to turn the handle and it has worked on every can I have tried so far in a variety of sizes. I have used it many times over the past few weeks and it still works just as smoothly as the first day. I will never use another can opener as I am very impressed with this one.
