Ozeri Wok Review (Moderna Housewares)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.

Fried Shrimp, my niece cooked


I received the 12-Inch Green Earth Wok by Ozeri, with Smooth Ceramic Non-Stick Coating (100% PTFE and PFOA Free), in exchange for honest review from Moderna Housewares. The wok is great for deep frying, such as my niece cooked shrimp in the wok.

I also made peach pancakes in the wok, using fresh peaches.

Peach Pancakes
The pancakes is a simple sugar, flour, and water recipe. Then, I added peaches into the mix. The pancakes didn't turn out as flat or as pretty as I wanted, but the pancakes was tasty, especially with a little butter and syrup. 


Other relatives have used the wok for fried chicken, pork chops, and other items, which I can't remember :-).


Nura Naturals Rosehip Oil Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.



I received Nura Natural 100% Organic Cold Pressed Rosehip Seed Oil - Natural Skin Care,  in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. The oil contains no alcohol, fillers, additives, and fragrance.

I used the oil to help with stretch marks and scars. I also used the oil, in combination with other essential oils to help moisturize my skin. I mixed the rosehip with lavender or peppermint or coconut or even lemon. The oil comes in handy when your youngest pours out his baby lotion or you run out of your own lotion.

The oil also helps soothe bites. I live in Texas. It has been raining and hot lately. I have seen an increase in flying bugs around the house, especially in the back and front yard. I use the oil to help soothe any bite marks. Brad also has been scratching his self lately and has a lot of open sores on his arms. The oil helps soothe his irritation.

I had no issues with the product.

You can purchase the oil, on Amazon, using the link above. The oil is prime-eligible.

Silicon Comfort Bluetooth Headset Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.




I received Silicon Devices Wireless Bluetooth Headphones Noise Cancelling Headphones, in exchange for honest review. The headsets connected quickly with my devices: phone, tablet, and computer.

The headphones comes with a case and some extra ear buds. You can customize the ear buds to your ears.

You have to charge the headphones first before use.

I had no issues with the device, except once it switched from music on the phone to music on the kindle, and I am not sure why.

Now, I turn off the bluetooth on each device, when not in use.

The controls for the headset are on one of the ear pieces. You have the power on, volume up, volume down, skip ahead, and skip backwards.

It also works voice control, not sure how to do that off the top of my head, but a few times, the headsets connected to the phone and said some prompt about voice commands.

I also learned the headset has a little range. I can move into a few rooms within a few feet of each other and not carry my devices with me.

You can purchase the headphones on Amazon, using the link above.

Walmart Gift Card Giveaway (Canada Win and Save)

I have never really dealt with acne. I always had mostly clear skin, which did not always go over well with some relatives. I do have relatives, who suffer with acne badly. My cousin face stays broke out and no matter what products, she uses, her face still breaks out. She is in her 40s. My niece also suffers with breakouts on a regular basis. She also has tried a few things and still breaks out.

Plant a bottle review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.




I received the Plant-A-Bottle (Set of 4 Indoor Plant Watering Devices), in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. The plant a bottle system comes with 4 terracotta spikes for watering your plants. You fill a water bottle or glass bottle, even your old beer bottle, with water and hang upside down in your plants.

I used the device to water one of my mother's green plants. Within a day, half the water was gone. I wasn't sure how the water would move from the bottle into the terra cotta and into the plant, but it worked. Be careful when flipping the bottle upside down though. I had some water spillage moving too fast.

After that, I gave my mother the other 3 devices to water other plants around the house.

You can purchase the plant-a-bottle, using the link above.

Pop Chart Lab Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.




I received Pop Chart Lab's Typewriter Art Print Poster - A Visual Compendium of Typewriters Poster Print, in exchange for honest review. The poster came in a plastic tube roll, which protected the poster from damage.



I wanted the poster because I am a writer. I used to love to use typewriters before computers came out. I loved the sounds the typewriter made.

Pop Chart Labs makes plenty of interesting posters about random topics such as beer, super heroes, dogs, coffee, watches, hand tools, and many more topics. Some topics are a picture representation. Others link text to pictures. Some follow a flow chart type logic.

You can also purchase the poster on Amazon, using the link above or on the Pop Chart Labs site. The poster is prime-eligible.

Black Derby Hat Review (Tomoson)


Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.






I received the Derby Hat - Classic Derby Hat In Black, in exchange for honest review. I love hats, including derby hats. The hat is great for dressing up. My kids loved the hat and enjoyed wearing the hat (as seen in the pictures above)

The hat felt comfortable, but the hat also can take abuse. Kalen had smashed the hat in the middle and it popped back into place quickly. The hat is also easy to clean with a wet rag.

You can purchase the hat on Amazon, using the link above.

1000 Thread Count Pillow Cases Review (Tomoson)


Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.




I received the 1000 Thread Luxury 100% Egyptian Cotton Sateen Standard Pillow Cases Set (Aqua), in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. I never thought about thread count in my pillow cases before. I normally look for pillows in a particular color, like purple, red, or black/

The pillow cases are striped blue. The pillow cases are also easy to clean. Next, the cases feel soft against my skin. They don't move and bunch up, like my satin and satin-like sheets.

You can purchase the sheets on Amazon, using the link above. (currently unavailable right now)




#BobeeFan You are my Sunshine Wall Decal Review

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.






I received You Are My Sunshine Wall Decal nursery decor for baby girls or boys room, Yellow, in exchange for honest review. I thought the wall decal would be a great addition for the blank wall, on one side of Kalen's bed. The decal was created by Bobee.

Now, this decal was a little bit different from other decals, I have used before. Instead of one big sticker, the you, are, and my, are individual letters. I had to use a straight guide to line them up.

The sunshine, on the other hand, is one big, wall decal. The sunshine was hard to take off the contact paper because of all the curves. I had to adjust the letters a few times to get it right. The sunshine was also easy to rip. I had to patch together the u and n back together, thanks to a 4 year old.

I tried to get it straight as I could but it ended up curving up.

You can purchase the decal, on Amazon, using the link above.

Maxasorb Vitamin D3 Cream Review (Tomoson)

Disclaimer: This post contains Amazon Affiliate Links.



I received Maxasorb Vitamin D3 Cream, in exchange for honest review from Tomoson. Vitamin D is good for bones and heart, in addition to a healthy immune system. You squeeze one pump of cream onto your skin. The cream absorbs quickly.

I wanted to review this because I need to take better care of myself, health wise. My family has a history of cancer, diabetes, high cholesterol, not to mention my migraines and female issues. I love Maxasorbs product line of the creams. great way to take your vitamins.

You can purchase vitamin d3 cream using the link above. You can also purchase the cream on Amazon.
