Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Creme

I was chosen by www.bzzagent.com to sample Neutrogena's Norwegian Formula hand creme for free. I have used it about 5 times now and I can already tell that I love it. I get horrible hand eczema and with just a few uses my hands are already starting to heal and they are very soft. I also love that this lotion is not very greasy. Most of the lotions that I find to help with my eczema are greasy.

I was chosen by www.bzzagent.com to try some pizza from Dr. Oetkers for free.

Prior to being chosen for this campaign I had heard of the pizza but had never tried it.



Since getting my free pizza and trying it I am hooked. It is so delicious! I love that they have premium toppings that I do not generally see on other frozen pizza's. I tried the Pizza Speciale with Pepperoni, Ham and cheeses and the Pizza Spinaci with spinach. Yummmm!

Best Pizza I've had at home in a long time!

Forever Red Bath and Body Works

I was chosen by Influenster to sample the new fragrance "Forever Red" by Bath and Body Works for free and to give my honest opinion on it. I was impressed by the fragrance, I am usually not a huger fragrance person because a lot of scents I feel are too strong. I also notice that with a lot of fragrances that they don't smell for long. Forever Red was nice because it was a nice, refreshing scent that was not too strong and I noticed it lasted for hours. I  got compliments from my coworkers wanting to know what fragrance it was. I would definitely recommend this to try!

Gillette Venus Embrace

I was chosen by www.influenster.comto sample for free the Gillette Venus Embrace razor. The one thing I loved about this razor was that any Venus blade refill fits any Venus razor handle. The razor gave such a smooth shave and even got the little hairs. Check out their website for some more info and some special offers! http://www.gillettevenus.com/en_US/index.jsp

I also sampled Bath and Body Works new fragrance Forever Red which smelt great! I loved the fresh scent!

In my box was also a Ghirardelli Sea Salt and Caramel Candy bar which was delicious! I've been wanting to try it for a while.

My favorite item in the box was a Pilot Pen. The writing was so smooth and flowy. I alrady bought more in other colors and use them all the time.

Easy Scentsy refills



I love my scentsy candle warmer! I use it almost every day. I go through so many scentsy cubes that I started to think about ways to make my own.


Save the Scentsy containers after they are empty.



After blowing out regular candles around the house, pour the melted wax into the scentsy mold container. Put in the freezer for 15 minutes to harden and use like normal!

If you don't have any old containers an ice cube tray works just as well!

Regrowing veggies

Produce can be so expensive!

I've found out recently that you can regrow certain vegetables.


  • Green Onions- Once you use it up, leave about an inch or so of the white part at the bottom. Simply place in water and they will regrow! They are super quick too. Mine started to grow within a few days and reached a decent length in a week. 

  • Celery- cut off the bottom of the stalk, soak in warm water overnight and plant in a small pot. Mine have been sitting in my window sill and started to grow really quickly!

  • Garlic- I always have extra garlic after I but a big clove. I usually end up tossing it. Plant a clove in soil and it will grow. Once it starts to grow a stalk will emerge. Chop that off once and a healthy bulb should grow after that. 

I'm sure there are a ton more that you can regrow but this is the start of my indoor veggie gardens! I'll add more as I learn about them!
