Long Time

Well it's been a while since my last blog post. I do have a pretty cool product that I got to sample and try for free. It is an app called Penless. At first I thought it was more of a digital scrapbook type thing however it is much more than that. You can create video memories to go in a scrapbook, you can create a message to send to family and friends that live far away from you. It is super simple to use. You scan the QR code and record then put the sticker on a gift, a card, or a book. I got a neat package of stickers and a bookmark, plus a code to save $. Here is the website to see ALL they have to offer.

Up to Date

Keeping up to date with life and happenings around town is not as easy as it used to be. Some of my links on the side of my posts are now no longer good resources. I don't use my Instagram to share this info, I don't even have a Facebook page for this blog. I have a group on Facebook, but not a specific page. I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge of deals and activities around the town I grew up in and that I'm raising my children in. However it's not always received positively or there are limits on the deals, so it gets frustrating to continue. I also have 4 kids, a part-time job, 2 volunteer outlets, a monthly class I teach, and flowers and balloons decorating that I do, which leaves little time to update my blog. I do follow other local bloggers and vloggers and Instagram pages to try to keep up with the events around the Vegas Valley. Cinco De Mayo events are going on around town, but I will need to try to collect all the info on them to share in another post.

Challange

I'm not sure if I've ever shared on my blog about the kind of work I do. I went to college when my husband went overseas. I chose to learn how to arrange flowers for different occasions and got a certificate of completion for the floral program at CSN. I enjoyed the internships I had done at 3 different flower shops and I wanted to keep up the skills and techniques I had learned so I started working from home doing flowers for different occasions.  I also do balloon decorating.
Now that is done. I'm going to try to post weekly for those looking for fun things to do over the summer. If you read over my blog I go in and out of phases with writing. I don't get paid to write my blog, but maybe I'll look into it.

My links for the different sites of info are out of date as well so I will be trying to revamp those.

C&H Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar Review

I was excited to be selected to sample and try the C&H Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar with Crowdtap because I wanted to see what made it better than regular sugar with a spoon. I got two of the C&H Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar containers for free in the mail to sample and review. I opened up my first container and put it to the test in some of my herbal tea. I was a bit sad that I could hear clumps of sugar when I shook the containers and thought the clumps would make it not pour out or even dissolve. I was wrong, the clumps didn't affect anything and dissolved quickly into my tea. I then thought that at the bottom of my mug there would be sugar residue, nope nothing was left of the sugar. It seriously dissolved on contact of the tea. I was impressed by the product and left it out for my family to use and me. I didn't know until I saw my daughter pouring sugar into her cereal that she was using it. Normally at the bottom of the bowl there's left over sugar so I knew my daughter was using it, but not with C&H Quick Dissolve Superfine Sugar, no evidence left. The top of the containers make it easy to pour as well. I like this sugar and will purchase more when I need to. The statements made in my blog are 100% my honest opinion. 

Views

I was applying for something to get to review for free and one of the questions was, "how many page views in the last month did you have on your blog?" I came and checked and saw over 700 page views in a month, I do not ever really having that many views in the years I've been posting on my blog. So Thank You readers/viewers for checking my blog for updates and reviews. I would do a giveaway to say thank you as I know that is what most bloggers do and I enjoy giveaways myself, however I wouldn't know where to start or what to giveaway. If you want a giveaway, comment below with an idea of what you would want to win and I'll consider it. Another thing is I only have 5 subscribers, it would help my chances at reviewing products for free if you read my blog if you would subscribe. I appreciate you all for sticking around and checking out for updates of things to do and also for reviews of different products I get to try and test for free.

Motts Tots Organic Apple Juice Review

Awhile back I got some coupons to redeem for a free Mots for tots organic apple juice only sold at Target. I redeem them and had my reusable bag that was also in my smiley360 package. I had one container as an option when I had another brand sponsored party. I tried it and I was surprised as it tasted like biting into an apple. I was not expecting that flavor as competitor brands have a sugary taste with the apple flavor. My children enjoy drinking it, but miss the sugary taste of the competitors. I'm not sure if I will buy more or not after my samples are gone since I do not do my grocery shopping at Target very often. I do recommend Motts for Tots Organic Apple juice if you want it and shop at Target.   #mottsfortotsorganic@target @motts @mysmiley360 #freesample
