In line with the current design focus on finishes and mixed metals, Pfister rounds out the updated kitchen look by introducing its Pasadena faucet in Slate. Slate, a warm, grey metallic finish complements any existing kitchen color palette simply and naturally.

Our Review:

This is one sleek, stylish faucet that will instantly upgrade your kitchen’s look and feel. My husband had it installed in no time. He was impressed with the high end look and extra touches Psifter added like including the deck plate that has an integrated seal at the bottom which will cover up the extra holes you may have in your old sink and keep it from leaking.

I enjoyed the Oohs and Aahs our new faucet received from family at Christmas! It really does look wonderful in our kitchen and goes well with our Stainless sink. 

Here’s our sink before our upgrade:

It is the end of the year my friends and I can’t think of a better way to end a great year of reviews than with 3 product reviews! Shoplet.com was kind enough to send me 3 office supply products shown below free of charge in the hopes I would share my thoughts with you. All opinions are 100% in own and may differ from yours.


MyWAHMPlan.com



Product 1: Rolling Wrist Rest:
The rolling wrist rest is ergonomically designed to help reduce joint stress. Independent 360 degree wheel rotation makes it easy to work with your mouse or keyboard without lifting your wrist.

My Review:
Old methods die hard, so even though I have used the rolling wrist rest for a few days, I still find myself lifting my wrist more often than not. In time I may get used to utilizing it. I do find my wrist feels less fatigued just resting it on the wrist rest while I read online, so I do recommend this product for those of us that work a lot online, or on a computer. You can learn more about this product here.



Product 2: Smarter Dual Action Gloves:
Microfiber, dual action Smarter Gloves are a smartphone users dream come true. No longer do you have to take off your glove to answer a call. These gloves provide any finger activation, touchscreen cleaning and are washable & reusable. Perfect for your tablets, readers, music, Navigation systems and more.

My Review:
I was excited to give these gloves a try during our last cold snap. I’m happy to report they really do work! I kept my gloves on to answer calls, clean my screen and share pictures on Instragram. I did have to take my glove off to text though because I grew frustrated with my misspelled words. As with the wrist roller, I think there is a learning curve and the more I use these gloves the more proficient at texting with them I’ll become. I like them and think you will too! You can learn more about this product here.



Product 3: ReStor-It Furniture Touch-up Kit:
For use on wood and wood laminates pieces like cabinets, doors, frames and more.  This set of 3 filler sticks and 5 touch-up markers fills and stains to restore beauty to furniture.

My Review:
I couldn’t wait to try this out on a few new dings our Cherry Entertainment center took over Christmas. Since my husband is a custom furniture and cabinet maker, I let him do the honors. He was very pleased with this set saying it is the most comprehensive touch-up kit he’s seen short of a professional one and he liked the way the product did what it was supposed to do quickly and easily. I loved the fact that I can no longer see scratches in my entertainment center. We do highly recommend this product! You can learn more about it here.



That’s it folks- my last reviews of 2013. Thanks so much for reading them. I hope you found them helpful in making a purchasing decision. That is why I do what I do here on my little blog that could.
Please share in comments if you have used any of these kinds of products before.

Stay tuned for more reviews and giveaways coming soon in 2014. I think it’s going to be a great year!

If you are like me and want a cocktail that doesn’t sabotage your diet or make you feel bad about drinking sweet stuff you can’t pronounce, then I have a great option - VitaFrute. With the New Year rapidly approaching, I was happily to agreed to try the free cocktails VitaFrute sent me (shown below) in the hopes I would share my thoughts with you here. All opinions are 100% my own and may differ from yours.


About VitaFrute and VeeV:

                             
An Entrepreneurial brand founded by two brothers Courtney and Carter Reum bringing us the world’s first Acai Spirit. This ready to drink cocktail is the first organic super fruit cocktail in a bottle.  All of the flavors are made with VeeV - the original acai spirit and are available in 4 delicious offerings at 125 calories per serving.

Our Review:


MyWAHMPlan.com


My husband and I gave the Margarita a try first. It’s made with organic VEEV Acai spirit, premium Tequila and a blend of all natural lemon, lime and agave nectar. We just poured over ice and enjoyed! It was one of the sweetest Margarita’s we’ve ever had. We found it a little too sweet for our tastes, but if you like drinks with little umbrella’s in them- you will love this Margarita!
Sweetness aside, we still liked the Margarita and can’t wait to try the Lemonade on New Year's Eve. We may even make our own Margarita with the special Veev spirit. Speaking of the VeeV spirit, my husband enjoyed it straight saying it has a smooth, fruity quality that would mix well with any fruit juice. 


Special Offer:

VitaFrute also has a special consumer offer this New Year's (where legal).  VitaFrute will offer savings on any Fitness Class, Gym or Health Club Membership or Monthly Fees.  Consumers just need to purchase 2 bottles of VitaFrute and mail in the rebate form.

in , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Tuesday, December 17, 2013


I cannot wait to share this sponsored post with you!  When maurices asked me to share their new Holiday necklace in Support of the American Cancer Society® I was so excited because I knew that you would love it and the chance to win one! Wait- don’t scroll down to enter the giveaway yet, let me tell you about the necklace and maurices great works first.


About maurices New Holiday Necklace:



"The 2013 Holiday Necklace includes three fashionable necklaces packaged together and comes in both silver and gold. Retailing for $12, the company will contribute a minimum of $6.00 from the sale price of every necklace to the American Cancer Society to support its mission to finish the fight against cancer by helping people stay well and get well, by finding cures, and by fighting back. This year, through sales of the new Holiday Necklace, the company hopes to raise more than $400,000 helping to make a difference in the lives of those families impacted by cancer."
“We all know someone who has been directly affected by cancer and it’s a cause that is extremely important to the maurices family,” said Brad Hartmann SVP, Chief Creative Officer. “Holidays are a time for giving and we are excited to introduce the latest addition to our accessories collection and offer consumers a gift that gives back in a big way.”


My Review:

I received the silver tone 3 piece necklace and loved how easily they came off the pretty card. No knotted up chains for me to deal with, I could immediately wear a necklace in theory. I say in theory because I’ve yet to be able to wear these necklaces because my daughters snagged them.

I can’t blame them- look at these cuties!

MyWAHMPlan.com
Melissa models all 3 necklaces.


Since I'm going to a school party on Friday- I'm going to wear the hearts and let Melissa and Tera choose from the other two.

If you are looking for a quick, inexpensive gift that your recipient will love – especially if they are in the hard to please tween and teen demographic, look no farther than maurices Holiday necklace. This set is so cute, you may want to keep it for yourself. And your purchase help find a cure for cancer!

If you have never shopped at maurices I invite you to visit their site and not just for this cool necklace. I love shopping there because I can find nice pieces that look cool and stylish for my age, yet cool enough that my teen can shop there too. That’s a hard combo, but maurices pulls it off! You can also connect with them on Instagram and Pinterest.
