The Underground Culinary Tour by Damien Mogavero book review

in , , , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Friday, March 31, 2017

We live south of the newest “IT” city, Nashville Tennessee. Our local news station has a series on the boom in growth Nashville is having and one of the most interesting area of growth to me is the plethora of new places to eat. From fine dining to food trucks; Nashville is making a name for itself as a foodie city.

The Gospel of Mark DVD Giveaway

in , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Friday, March 17, 2017
Spring is knocking on the door here, not only in the beautiful Tennessee landscape I adore, but in my heart as well. To me, spring is always a time of renewal, reflection and rebirth. As a Christian family, it is an important time in our lives with Lent and soon, Easter. I'm glad I was given the opportunity to share a Christian based movie with you today.


This is a sponsored post on behalf of Review Wire Media for The Lumo Project. I received information to facilitate my review and will receive a copy of movie to thank me for my participation.


I am really excited to have an opportunity to watch The Gospel of Mark, but as luck would have it, my package hasn't arrived yet. Since the movie became available March 14th, I'm choosing to host my giveaway first and come back and share my review later.

3 Free gardening apps to try this spring

in , , , , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Friday, March 03, 2017

I am counting down the days until spring officially arrives later this month. I know I’m not alone in this count- down to March 20th.  My friends and I are watching for and taking note of all the markers that spring is on its way.  Here in the south, there is a riot of beautiful Daffodils in yards everywhere, the Tulip trees are blooming and the Bradford Pear trees are budding.  Since we gardeners are in a bit of a holding pattern for now, I thought I’d share 3 free (and fun!) gardening apps I’m going to try out this spring to help us pass the time until we can really get out there and garden!




3 free gardening apps to try this spring




1. My first app choice will help all of us who have ever walked through a park or lovely garden setting and thought what is that flower? Aptly named- What’s that flower, this app will help you identify flowers by color, habitat, and even number of petals. Cool right? 




What's that flower app

What’s that flower app will narrow down your options to a couple dozen, and then you just scroll through that list until you find the right flower.  Once your flower is found, you can read about it and see if it will work in your garden space/home. Android users can download app here.  This app isn’t available on IOS yet, so I suggest trying Garden Answers app. It looks like it has similar features. Download here.





DIY Gardening Tiips App



2. My second app just may add a serious amount of phone time to my schedule because it covers so many topics I find interesting. The DIY Gardening Tips app helps you find great gardening and DIY tips that you can easily use.  Plus it has tons of useful information for vegetable gardens, something I want to explore more this year. There’s tips on flowers and herbs and even garden design!  This app is available for Android here and IOS here. 





BeeSmart app




3. My third choice is Bee Smart App.  In a time when our bee populations are dwindling at an alarming rate, I know all gardeners share my concern and passion to help aide the bee by planting flowers and shrubs they like. What attracted me (pun intended) to this app was their mission statement: The BeeSmart™ Pollinator Gardener is your comprehensive guide to selecting plants for pollinators specific to your area. Never get caught wondering what plants to buy again! I like the sound of that and it looks so easy to use. Just plug in your zip code and hit enter! If you want to get bees, hummingbirds and butterflies in your garden this spring, download Bee Smart here for Android and here for IOS. 




I hope you'll give at least one of 3 free gardening apps a try this spring. If you do, please come back here and let me know your thoughts in comments and be sure to share a gardening app you like in comments too!


 Which app do you think you are mostly likely to try and why?

Nature’s Logic Cat food unboxing kitty style & giveaway

in , , , , , , , , by Linda A Kinsman, Tuesday, February 28, 2017

Hello from rainy Nashville. I don’t know about you, but I am more than a little ready to welcome in March and spring weather! Before we say goodbye to February, the month of love, I thought I’d show my pet loving friends some love and host a pet food giveaway sponsored by Nature’s Logic®. While I did receive complimentary product and compensation for my time, I only share information that I feel will help my readers. All opinions are 100% my own and that of my cats.



Unboxing Nature's Logic food kitty style



Anytime we receive a package, my kitties need to investigate it. Most of the time I have to gently tell them they can’t play with the contents of these packages because I have to take photos of the products;  so imagine their surprise and delight when I said they could check out this package because it was for them. I love how Dottie opted to get in the box and let her little sister figure out how to open the bags and cans.  I’ll work on getting an unboxing video next time, because these two are just too cute!



Nature's Logic #catfood



Nature’s Logic® chicken meal feast dry kibble past the smell test with my kitties during their unboxing, and I’m sure it will with your fur babies too.  I’d never tried this brand, so I was thrilled to learn some amazing things about this brand like: 

  • Their food is 100% All Natural Whole Food Ingredients.
  • NO man-made, chemically synthesized vitamins, minerals or amino acids.
  • NO chemical preservatives, artificial flavorings or colorings
  • NO corn, wheat, soy, rice, potato, tapioca or peas


I was also happy to read that Nature’s Logic® is committed to providing the highest quality and safest nutrition for the furry members of your family. I appreciate that they understand that our pets are our family too!


Fiona investigates Nature's Logic dry kibble bag


They explain on their website that they have created the first and only full-line kibble, canned, and raw frozen pet food in the world with no chemically-synthesized ingredients. Nature’s Logic is the pioneer in developing truly 100% natural pet foods derived from nature…not chemistry! Now that is amazing! Check out the key benefits of feeding your pets Nature’s Logic®.

Taste Text Time:

Nature's Logic dry kibble taste test time


As most parents can attest, it doesn’t matter if you are feeding little humans, or fur-babies, if the food doesn’t taste good, it won’t get eaten, no matter how much we explain how good for them it is!


Dry Kibble was a hit!
As I suspected it might be, the chicken meal feast dry kibble was a hit! All three of my cats (2 indoor princesses, and one garage/outdoor sweetie) love the taste and gobble it up when I serve it to them.  There are several flavors available including Chicken, Duck/Salmon, Turkey, Sardine and Rabbit. 


Wet food was a miss with one cat!

Next we tried the chicken feast wet food, which received two out of three paws up.  The consistency of this wet food is actually on the dry side, almost dense, so only two of my kitties liked it. 

I wasn’t really surprised that my Fiona didn’t eat this wet food because she has always preferred a more moist food, so please keep this in mind when making your purchases. Their wet food comes in the same flavors as the dry food. I offered each variety to Fiona and each time, she declined eating. She was happy to play with the cans and help me take photos for this post. 




 Learn More:

I invite you to learn more about Nature’s Logic® and their mission to provide our pets with essential and complete nutrition using only 100% natural ingredients by visiting their website where you can see a full list of ingredients, find feeding charts for both cats and dogs and use their handy store locator, which also lists online retailers like Chewy.com that offer their full line of products. Be sure to follow them on Facebook and Twitter  and Instagram. They love seeing (and sharing!) your pet pics. 




Win It:
