Subscription Box Review: Harrison Blake Apparel
If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know that I love subscription boxes. I went on a mission not too awfully long ago to review several of them and though we had some fails in the bunch, my love for the subscription box stayed strong. Not too long ago, I was contacted by Harrison Blake Apparel and asked if I would be interested in reviewing their men’s apparel box. It didn’t take me long to say yes and I’m glad I did! (And I need to First thing I noticed was that it actually came in an envelope rather than a box. I didn’t find this…

Product Review: Circle with Disney
Do you have screen time struggles in your house? We do. I admit that I sort of always sat apart from the folks complaining about their kids and screen time and I was probably a tiny little bit judgmental. Okay, I always thought we had a good handle on our kids with electronics, etc. But then I got to the point where I had three teenagers. And three phones. And multiple computers and tablets. The computers and the tablets are used for school, by the way. But still, I realized we had a problem. It seemed like I was constantly finding one or the other of my kids with their…

Why I Younique
I’m totally not a sales person. I’m pretty sure I heard a bunch of you laughing there. I mean I own a PR/Marketing company and I’m telling you I’m not a sales person? Yeah, really. Stick with me here for a second. (Any one of the poor people who have excitedly watched me sign up to sell things like Thirty One, Mary Kay, etc can verify the truth of this statement.) When it comes to actual sales, I am a sad, sorry disappointment. LOL! However, I usually sign up for these ventures because I absolutely love the product, what they represent, or seriously – I just want the stuff they…

Kudos to Clarins and Influenster for being class acts…
I’m a member of Influenster. I love being a part of their promotions and trying out new products. And obviously, you can see that I love talking about new things – so it’s a slam dunk all the way around! Recently I took part in a campaign where I got to try a skin product from Clarins. Now post cancer, I’m really really really cautious about my skin. The radiation damage and the difficulties I went through during treatments really took a toll on me – both my skin and my emotions. So when I tried this new product, I was a little hesitant, to say the least. Thankfully, it…

Review: Hot Dudes Coloring Book by D.C. Taylor
Hot Dudes Coloring Book by D.C. Taylor Reviewed by Lori Twichell Genre: Coloring Book Publisher: Berkley Date: February 2, 2016 So yeah, how do you review a coloring book? This is a unique challenge that is now coming to the forefront with the advent of all the adult coloring books out there. I have several. I love sitting down to watch a film and spending my evening coloring. So when the Hot Dudes coloring book popped into my inbox, I laughed quite a bit, wished I’d had a copy for the recent spate of White Elephant gift exchanges I’d done during the holidays, and happily agreed to review it. …

Subscription Box Review: The Handy Box – The not so great review of a not so great box.
This is a really awkward review for me because, well, I don’t have a box to review. Now to be fair, The Handy Box people did not know that I was going to be writing a review of their box or the way they handle their boxes, so that needs to be said up front. However, I also don’t think I should be required to tell them that I’m going to write a review in order to get good service. I believe that every customer, whether they’re writing a review or not, is capable of sharing their story and should be treated with the utmost in respect and customer service. However, I signed…
