Hot coffee to go. -HappyGo’s Stainless Steel Thermos.

My guys live and breathe on the road for work. Coffee is most definitely one of their staples. This thermos is so cool too. We are thrilled with how HappyGo set up their thermos. It not only is a thermos, but it is also your travel mug. The lid is a little different to open. It looks like you would press a button, and it would pop up, but it doesn’t. There’s a little lever you have to move out of the way, and then you can press and open the lid. So, on the positive side, you will not accidently open this up and spill it. The seal is pretty good as well. It was well done overall. This is a 16oz thermos travel mug. We bought it in black, but they also have it in white, which is a refreshing color. There is a great mouthpiece on this for easy drinking. I really appreciate it because I tend to dribble on myself, lol. The mouthpiece on this is pretty large and deep, so that shouldn’t be an issue for you with this one. My husband has used it for his coffee on the road with great success. There is no glass lining in this thermos. It is 18/8 stainless steel double walled and durable. The lid is made from BPA free Silicone, food grade. There are no toxin worries with this thermos. It doesn’t affect the flavor of your drinks at all either. It just helps to keep your coffee fresh and hot longer and your cold drinks to stay cold, much longer, as well. It’s definitely a keeper for us. It’s a great quality product.

The best wine glass ever! – The Lone Star Store’s Good Day – Bad Day – Do NOT Ask – Shatterproof – Wine Glass.

I absolutely love this glass. I try to be a positive person, and I don’t label my days as bad days on purpose, but even if I have a fantastic day, this glass will just make it better. Something about it just makes me smile! I love the non-breakable Tritan glasses, like this one. I am not new to them at all. Most of the name brand sports bottles are made out of Tritan material as well. I am famous in my home for breaking glass wine glasses. Not when I’m drinking out of one, but when I wash them. I have no worries about that with this glass. It arrives in a basic brown box. Not really a “Gift Box”, like they stated in their ad, lol. But, it is easily wrapped because of the box it arrives in. So, I actually really like that. This is just like a regular wine glass. The shape is elegant, and it holds like a stemmed glass. But, since they are not real glass, this one is perfect for outside as well. You can use this poolside, patios, picnics, traveling in a RV, and more. This glass is 12oz. There are three markings on it: Good Day, Bad Day, and Do Not Ask!. We all know we are filling it to the top line, which is the Do Not Ask! line. I have a glass similar to this, but stemless. My 21 year old son loves it and immediately stole it from me. He drinks everything out of it but his coffee. My husband took one look at this glass and laughed. He says my son is going to steal this one too. This may be a hazard at your home too. It’s a glass that everyone ends up loving. It’s fun. This glass even fits into my wine glass lawn stakes I have. Since they are just like a wine glass, it fits perfectly. But, I have the added safety of the Tritan security. I can drop it in my sink, or on the ground, and it doesn’t crack at all. I hand wash everything, but this glass can go into the dishwasher as well. It is EA and BPA free. I love that this company donates money to St. Judes. That hospital is amazing! This is from the company’s ad page, “$1 for each item purchased will be donated in honor of Team Samuel at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.” This really makes me love everything about this glass.

A great knife for your car. – Outdoor Games’ WHX Outdoor Camping Survival Folding Knife.

I live in a house with a lot of guys, and guys like knives. Well, mine do anyhow. I have been converted, and get just as excited about them. Not only are they great tools to have, but the can help you save your life in an emergency. This knife from Outdoor Games can do just that too. It is a great tool to keep in your vehicle. This folding knife has a built in seatbelt cutter as well as a glass breaker on it. It does not come with a sheath, but it does have a metal pocket clip on it. It’s a long metal pocket clip, and sturdy. The blade is a Tanto blade and was made out of 440C Stainless Steel. Overall this knife measures out at 8 ¼” long when opened. The blade measures out at 3.5” to the tip. They state 2.9”, so I would check my state laws before ordering it. We can have up to a 4” blade on us, here in NC. This is a heaver blade with the built in car safety features. It weighs out at 7.3oz with my scale. My knife arrived in perfect condition. It arrived with the usual factory edge, and in my opinion needs to be sharpened. If I want my knife to be able to be fully utilized, it needs to have a sharp edge on it, capable of shaving those hairs, lol. The blade test we always do. Even though it’s a larger knife for me, I can still do the one handed open and close. I’m not great at flicking it open yet, since it’s larger. It is also a little tight when it first arrives, which is normal. There is no play in the blade. When it is opened, it is well locked in. To close it, you just need to press your thumb against the liner lock and push the blade shut with your other fingers. The blade has a camo like finish done on it. It’s pretty sharp looking. The handle is metal with a black, plastic insert which has ridges on it. It helps with the grip, and the aesthetics. There is a lanyard whole already there for you as well. This is a great tool to keep in a vehicle. It would be great camping or hiking as well. In a pinch you can cut your Paracord, or anything else you need. It’s thick and solid, and a great price for such a useful tool.

A beautiful message. – Parati’s Genuine 925 Sterling Silver Weight Lifting Fitness Bodybuilding Charm Pendant Necklace.

I really like the message this necklace states. It states that ”Strong is Beautiful”. Yes, there is a weight charm, but that is an obvious symbol of strength. I believe this necklace can be worn by any woman or girl who is strong. Although, commitment to physical health is also a great attribute! Females can be strong in any way. There is strength in being true to yourself, not bowing down to peer pressure. You can be strong in dealing with illness, and struggle. Keeping your head up high in times of diversity. A survivor of domestic abuse, and more, as well. Strength in women should be a loud and proud characteristic. Somehow, a lot of girls and women, are afraid to be strong in a more male dominant world. They are under some perception that men won’t find them attractive if they show their strength. I believe strong women are beautiful.

This necklace is so pretty in person. It is more demure than the pictures show on the ad page. It is a very feminine looking necklace, while proudly stating who you are. The two charms are separate from each other on the chain. The wording is very clear on the charm, and the weight is really nice looking. The necklace and charms are made out of 925 Sterling Silver. They have a beautiful polished look and shine to them as well. The chain closes vis a traditional circular spring clasp. Mine was done perfectly, and performs flawlessly. This is a great length to wear with a v-neck shirt, 18 inches. It would be great with any neckline, really. Nothing was cheaply made on this necklace. It is so pretty in person. It would make a great gift. Besides being very affordable for 925 Sterling Silver, it arrives in a really pretty velvet jewelry gift box, with a microfiber jewelry silver cleaning cloth. What a statement you would be giving the woman in your life. You really can’t go wrong with this beautiful necklace from Parati.

The much needed bling for your finger. – Parati’s Women’s 18K Rose Gold Plated CZ Cut Diamond Anniversary Engagement Ring.

What girl doesn’t love sparkly jewelry. I’ve never met one. This particular ring by Parati has wonderful sparkle and shine to it. I love how it is Rose Gold plated, and 18KT Rose Gold plating in fact. It really makes it an affordable, but really pretty ring, for almost any lady. I ordered it in the size 7 so I could wear it on any finger. I also have a ring sizer. I find this ring to be true to size. That is always a relief when ordering online. I hate wasting money and time. They currently offer this ring in both White Gold, and Yellow Gold plating as well. The sizes they are offered in currently range from 5 – 9. There is one large stone on this ring, encircled with smaller ones. The smaller ones even go partially down the band. All of my settings were done well. I do not have any loose or chipped stones. They used Cubic Zircon for the stones. It turns out that it is harder than Crystal, which is a fun fact to know. The large, centered stone, is set up higher from the smaller ones. It makes for a grand look. If you were pressed for money, this could easily be your engagement ring or wedding band; it’s that pretty. I do not know what metal alloy was used in the fabrication of this ring. Since it is Rose Gold plated, it hasn’t bothered my skin. It has so much sparkle to it, especially when the light hits it just so. It makes a great gift, as it arrives in a very pretty velvet ring box. Just perfect for gift giving.

A different way to diffuse. – Innovation Product’s Electric Fragrance Oil Lamp, Essential Oil Diffuser with 35 Watt Halogen Bulb and Touch Dimmer Switch.

I love essential oils. I use them all of the time. I normally use essential oil diffusers to disperse them throughout the room. This light is different. It’s a light/fragrance lamp. You can use it without the plate, as just a nice accent lamp/nightlight. This lamp comes with a 35W halogen bulb, and a glass plate. The power cord is attached. You can use it with or without the plate. It is not recommended to leave the plate on longer than 8 hours. It does get hot. It is also not recommended to place oil on the plate if it’s already hot. The light does get warm to the touch. Little ones might burn themselves on it. This would be something I would recommend placing on a counter top, away from the edge, if you have little ones, or inquisitive pets. It doesn’t feel hot to me. I can wrap my hand completely around it. I can also lift the plate up, and hold it on the palm of my hand when heated up. It is ok to use essential oils on this unit. I did some research to make sure it was healthy to do, and it’s fine. Only use pure essential oils, for healthy benefits. It is a nice, all natural way to freshen up your home. Most store bought air fresheners are so unhealthy for you. Right now I have lemongrass on my plate. I like to use Lavender and Eucalyptus a lot, as well. You also want to make sure the plate is cooled off before washing it. Otherwise, you will have a cracked plate on your hands. The attached cord to this lamp is a 2 prong plug. So, it is handy to be plugged in anywhere. It also has the power/dimmer switch attached to it. It is placed approx. ½ way down the cord. The cord is just under 4 feet long. The turn knob is pretty cool. It is a lot larger than I am used to. It is so easy to turn, and dim or brighten the light. You can turn it on and off here as well. The lamp has a honeycomb like pattern built into it It throws a really pretty light pattern. I received it in pink, but they currently have it available in purple as well. The unit is made well. It’s thick and solid, not easily broken. I placed about 5 drops of oil on the plate at a time. It lasts for a few hours that way, which is a good amount of time. With the plate on it, it is only 4 ½” tall. So, it’s a very convenient size. I love it as a nightlight. It’s a really pretty light.

Fashion forward with aHook’s 2016 Georgette Chiffon Solid Colors Infinity Scarf.

My mother is a fan of infinity scarves. They are popular all over the world too. I consider these scarves like jewelry. They can really change the look and feel of an outfit. We all have our favorite pieces that we wear to death. Just by adding an infinity scarf, you can change up your usual look. That way you can keep on wearing your favorite pieces, without people realizing, lol. This particular scarf from aHook is lightweight, and well made. Mine arrived in perfect condition. Even with the lightweight, polyester Chiffon fabric, all of the stitching was done tight and on point. The scarf arrived with no odor to it whatsoever, as well. They do have this scarf available in other color choices. This is an extra-long infinity scarf. You can double loop it, wrap it around your waist, shoulders, hair, and more. You can add scarf jewelry, and broaches to achieve your desired look. With a scarf this long, you really have so many design ideas. If you aren’t feeling creative enough, you can find all types of ideas online. You can wash this scarf in a machine on gentle, and alone in a lingerie bag. Then lie flat to dry. Or, just wash it by hand. Another great point about infinity scarves like this one, is that they are great for any occasion. Especially since they are so comfortable on. Overall, I am really happy with this scarf from aHook.

A fun knife from Elemental Knives.

Recently, I had my car broken into, and had my being prepared supplies, and self-defense supplies stolen from me. That included my knife unfortunately. So, I was thrilled to be able to review this beauty. This is my first personal knife done in this design. This design is great for show and self-defense. It has a solid grip, a great sheath, and lanyard; perfect for neck carry. It’s a Hawkbill design, and the blade is also full tang as well. This knife is made out of 420 stainless steel. It’s pretty thick and sturdy; not a flimsy, bendy knife in the least. It arrived pretty sharp, but definitely has a factory edge. Pretty much what I expected. Another pro for this knife, is that it also comes with a solid sheath with lanyard hole. That way, when you are wearing it in neck carry mode, you just need to grab the handle, and with a quick tug, the knife is free to defend yourself. The blade on this knife is a 3.5” blade. You will need to check your state laws to make sure this is legal in your state. I’m lucky, it’s legal in mine. The ABS and fiberglass handle is comfortable to hold and it affords a solid grip. There is also a finger hole at the end of the knife. This knife measures 7 ½” in total length. It’s still pretty light at 3.83oz. I like the thumb grip on it. It’s comfortable, but really helps to ensure a solid grip. The finish on the blade and finger hole is pretty sharp looking. This is my first knife with the blade done with a design like this. I find it to be a lot of fun. This knife has found a home in my car. I am glad I have been able to replace my self-defense knife in my vehicle. Now I just need to replace my basic pocket knife.

Such a fun kite! – KickFire Kadavu’s Premium Blue Delta Kite.

My youngest is 8 years old, and has never flown a kite until now. He was so excited. I have two older kids, and have used my share of kites in the past. With all that said, I am really happy with this kite. KickFire’s Kadavu kite is so nice, and easy to set up. This kite only has one fiberglass pole to insert, and the string to attach, then you are up and flying. They include a 100ft of kite string on this bad boy too. This kite is made out of Rip Stop Nylon. All of the stitching was done well. The yellow pieces of Nylon that come off the wings, are not stitched though, and start to fray a little upon flying. This is not an uncommon feature at all, from my experience. This kite measures out at10ft long from tip to tail, and the wing span is just under 6ft, including the streamers. It does come with a storage bag as well. I can tell you that once you fly the kite, it’s a little hard to slide the kite back in. I wish the storage bag was a couple inches wider. It’s doable though, but just doable. This kite was made to cut through the sky. Lol, we aren’t that skilled yet, since we don’t fly kites often. I haven’t flown one in years, so we are back to the beginner level status. It does work great in the sky though. My 8 year old was able to fly it himself and he’s ecstatic by it. We live close to the beach, and get a lot of wind. So, this has opened up a whole new healthy outside activity for him. The bright colors of this kite make it highly visible, even when the sun is shining in your eyes. It truly is a fun kite to fly.

So much more than a watch box. -Satella’s Watch Box, Large.

Watch boxes can be so handy. I am a fan of using watch boxes for my jewelry. My older son also has one he uses for his watches and jewelry. This particular box is now being used by my husband. It is a 10 bay box, and the outer covering is pleather. It has 10 open compartments in it, and each compartment has a watch pillow in it. These pillows are removable. You can take the ones you don’t need, out, and use the compartments to store rings, necklaces, bracelets, tie bars, cuff links, and more. I love using these for earrings and bracelets. I can fit so many earrings in one compartment. Since the sides are so high, they can’t be lost, or roll away, when I’m looking through them. My husband has some watches, necklaces, bracelets, and extra watch links in his, so far. You can fit so much in a 10 bay box like this one.

This particular watch box is made quite well. I love the contrasting stitching on the case. It makes for a real sharp look. The case arrived with no odd odor to it at all. The pleather is in perfect condition. The top of the box is clear glass. I like being able to see in the box. The hardware is metal and has a silver, high polish chrome finish. This particular box does not have a lock on it. The lining has a soft velvet, cream colored finish to it. It’s pretty nice. It has a nice, clean look to it. This watch box measures out at: 10” long, 8 inches deep, and 3 ¼” tall. I find these boxes to be handier than a regular jewelry box. I was quite surprised by this the first time I received one. I am personally a convert now.
