Great Ways to Ignite a Passion for Cooking

This is a collaborative post. Please welcome today's contributor.

Cooking is an excellent way for you to express yourself creatively. It is a way to hone those culinary skills and make some fantastic food that tastes great and is healthy. Most people are aware that home cooking is one of the healthiest ways to eat. It gives you a chance to fill yourself and your family with nutritious meals that are jampacked with vitamins and minerals. Home cooking can also save you a bit of money, especially if you are one for going to the drive-through. There are many benefits to home cooking, so if you have lost that passion for cooking and are in bad eating habits at the moment, why not take a look at the list below and find ways to reignite that passion for cooking:

Can’t Get A Good Night’s Rest? Here Are Some Tips To Help You Out

This is a collaborative post. Please welcome today's contributor.

We can really feel it when we don’t get a good night’s sleep. We wake up cold, our bones ache, and the only thing keeping us from shutting our eyes again is the fear of being yelled at by our boss for getting to work late. A good night’s sleep can do wonders for our productivity and mood, but it’s not guaranteed every night and we need to do different things to help ensure that we get a good night’s sleep.

So let’s take a look at some of the top ways to ensure a good night’s rest.

Fragrances Line all day for affordable perfume samples!


While I'm trying on these samples, let me jot down my thoughts on them so I can remember them for later. I posted about these on Instagram a few weeks ago (because that's where people ask me the most about my fragrances), and now I want to add them here as well. Just recording my thoughts, so I remember how I felt about these fragrances later. Sampling has become a big part of my life as has collecting perfumes that I really enjoy. If you'd have told me this would happen a few years ago, I'd have laughed at you. I've always liked perfume, but I've never been one to flip cartwheels over fragrance. In fact, there were times in my life that I went years without even owning a bottle of perfume (gasps). That has certainly changed (she says as she wraps her body around the couch to try and get into the back of it where her sample fell through a corner crease but there is no opening at the bottom for it to come out).

These samples came from Fragrances Line. They have fast shipping and great customer service. They also have an extensive selection of fragrances, including a whole lot of niche scents that are not always to find. I appreciate that for sure and that's why this sample house is one of my favorites.

I purchased 5 samples this go around. I'll list them in alpha order.

The Perfumed Court Samples




I started falling in love with perfume in 2020 when we were stuck at home during the pandemic. There was something exciting about getting samples in the mail to try, especially if they were of the kind of fragrances that are hard to find in the stores (and at the time, we couldn't even get into stores, unless it was to buy groceries...or to hunt down the ever-elusive packages of toilet paper). I got so into the hobby that I joined a few Fragrance groups with other people who also enjoyed trying and collecting perfumes (my friends and family can only take so much scent talk, lol) and to this day, I still find myself trying new perfumes every chance I get.

My latest set of samples came from The Perfumed Court. They always have such a great selection, that honestly they are one of the few sites I gravitate towards first and foremost before making any full-sized purchases. This visit to their website did not disappoint. I ordered 10 samples, some niche, some designer and here are my thoughts...

Please note, I have tried literally hundreds and hundreds of samples, and at this point in my scent journey, there are many I don't love. That's okay! It's part of the sifting process that leads me to the ones I really love (and I really enjoy the search).  

Also note, just because I don't love something doesn't mean you won't. There are so many I don't care for that many love. If you're interested, try a few and see what you like for yourself. :)

Ranking the selections in this order of best to least favorite (in my opinion only), here is what I tried:

Which 2023 Calendar Would You Choose?

As a blogger, I am fortunate to work with many brands. To all of them, I say a big thank you. I appreciate each and every one of you. There are some brands, however, that I have come to love so much they have become a part of my every day life. Workman Publishing is one of those brands.


Some of you know I have a huge fondness for travel, and in particular there are so many places in Italy that I still want to see. As I inch closer to meeting my goal of being able to travel abroad once again, I take joy in seeing my 365 Days in Italy Calendar on the wall, every single day, every single year.

Looking After You in 2023

This is a collaborative post. Please welcome today's contributor.

2023 is but a week away which means many will be forming their new year resolutions. Most people like to take the time to reflect on their resolutions and decide what would be better then, but one thing you should be doing for yourself no matter the year is looking after yourself better. 


Most people ponder how tired and exhausted the year has been before they move into a new year, but the holidays and the new year is the chance to get the renewal that you need. It's like turning a page in a notebook that is blank and fresh; You can't wait to draw on it because you know the pen is going to glide over the paper. Looking after you in 2023 is going to look different compared to others, so you need to ensure that whatever you do you are taking care of yourself first. So, here are some of the things that you can do to make sure your 2023 goes without a hitch.

Wordless Wednesday: Just Horsing Around

 


Not gonna lie, the first time I saw a horse lying down in the grass 
I circled the car back around to do a double take.
Looks like I'm not the only one. 😅

Snacks on the Go are Easy with Whiskware

Disclosure: I received a sample product. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.


So pretty, I had to frame them. 😉

Ok, I already know this gift is going to be a big deal to my granddaughter, when she pulls it out of her Christmas stocking. She loves to take snacks on the go, and this tri-cup holder from Whiskware is going to let her do so with a cute Mickey and Minnie Mouse design on it.

Who Needs a Share Cube Vac on your Shopping List?

Disclosure: Gifted item. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.


You say you're done shopping. Kaput. It's over, and hurrah. Now you can relax. Then you see that ONE MORE THING that you just have to have. Can you relate? For me it's the Worx Cordless Vaccum that you can use in the car!! 

Goki Makes Precious Toys for Kids!

Disclosure: I received samples. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.


Every single year for as long as I can remember, I've put candy in the kids' stockings. A lot in the grown kids and a little in the grandkids', but this year that's going to change. Actually, I was in the store and had all of the usual choices in my cart and I looked down and asked myself, 'why am I buying all of this candy?' Because that's what I've always done. What a dumb reason. So this year, I put all of the candy back (except the chocolate covered oranges, those stay for sentimental reasons) and am purchasing more practical, useful things that will last all year long. Big score if they're fun items too, like these wooden vehicles from Goki.

Use Halos to make edible holiday crafts!

Disclosure: I received samples. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.


Halos are my jam. I like to have them at home because they are easy to peel and they taste delicious. I like to take them to work because I teach and the kids always want something to eat. Better to give them something good for them, than to overload them with sugary treats...and they love them! So...this year for Christmas, what's a better gift for the classroom than a tree made of Wonderful Halos? Talk about bringing something that will get them excited. My strategy...make the tree, put it on my desk and count the time until someone asks if they can have one. Pretty positive that even 5 minutes won't pass before I get the request, lol.

$10 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway: The Garden - a new faith-based cartoon for kids!

Disclosure: Many thanks to Garden Productions for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

"The Garden" is perfect for the little tykes. All of the shows in the series, are short, so they hold the attention span of the children, have a solid message, and have characters the kids can relate to as well. There are a few episodes available currently and many more to come (40 episodes, and an app is in the works as well).

Opening Your Business Doors to Ecommerce Opportunities

This is a collaborative post. Please welcome today's contributor.

In order to remain competitive in the business world, it is important always to be looking for new opportunities. One such opportunity that more and more businesses are taking advantage of is e-commerce. E-commerce allows businesses to sell their products and services online, reaching a larger audience than they would otherwise. If you are thinking about opening your business doors to e-commerce opportunities, this blog post is for you! It will discuss the pros and cons of e-commerce, as well as some tips on how to get started.

1) Pros of e-commerce:

One of the most significant advantages of e-commerce is its potential to reach a larger audience. By having an online presence, your business can be visible to anyone with access to the internet – regardless of geographic location. Additionally, setting up an e-commerce store is relatively straightforward and cost-effective. Rather than spending large amounts of money on physical storefronts and office space, most businesses can set up their own online stores without breaking the bank. Finally, running an online business often requires fewer staff members than a traditional brick-and-mortar store would need. As a result, startup costs associated with e-commerce can be significantly lower than those involved in opening a physical store.

Learning All Year Long with Mrs Wordsmith Books and Games

Disclosure: Samples were provided to me. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.


 One thing we like to do over the break is make sure the kids' minds stay sharp for school, but not in a way that is intrusive or 'educational' blah blah blah, but rather, a way that is fun for them, will make them laugh and have the learning a million miles a minute without even knowing it's happening. There is a company that specializes in this kind of thing, and that is Mrs. Wordsmith

You Haven't Seen a Jigsaw Puzzle like this Trefl!

Disclosure: I received a sample product to help facilitate the review. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.


Kudos to Trefl for finding a way to put a new spin on jigsaw puzzles! A wooden puzzle is a novelty in and of itself, at least when it is done this way, but having one where each piece of the puzzle is in the shape of an animal itself is rather extraordinary and makes for a most excellent gift idea.

Kids Create Their Own Christmas Ornaments: How TREEmendous!

Disclosure: I was provided a sample product. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.

Okay, so sometimes there are items that I get every single holiday, or take out to use every single year, and being a blogger, I always think, well, I should write about that since I really love it so much. This year, I have decided to go ahead and do that, by posting a blast-from-the-past but tweaking it to add a new product to the post, that is extremely similar. I never recycle posts. Why would I do that? To show you how much I love it!! How durable it is (we're still using our old one from 3 years ago). And to introduce (or reintroduce) you to it, so you can pick one up for your kids this holiday season too!


The new item is above and it is extremely similar to the original item I have, which I talk about below. The two biggest differences are 1). now you can get the kit that has 3 different-shaped ornaments including a fun triple-tier design and 2). There is a storage kit underneath the maker for your markers (I love this update! very handy). 

So what is it... It is the Gift Box Ornament Decorator.

It is an ornament decorator kit that is SO MUCH FUN and it's easy to use too. Kids will enjoy watching it spin and seeing the designs come to life with the colors they are choosing to use. Keep reading if you're looking for something very reasonably priced to purchase that will delight children of all ages.

Rest and Relaxation Gift Ideas from Snailax

Disclosure: sample products were received. All opinions stated are genuine and my own.

The first gift under our tree.
I'm wrapping it today and gifting it to my daughter.
This is going to be one of her favorite gifts.
Something she can use all year-round!

I don't know about you, but my job makes me tired. I love it (most days) but it can be very challenging. A prime example, one of my students fell into my arms yesterday, crying and so upset. I teach teens and they do love to come and get a hug (which was initially surprising but now it is endearing), but this was different. She was snotting and crying and so unhappy. When I finally got it out of her that she felt so sick but was unable to reach her mother on the phone (walking to my class), I sent her to the clinic. "But I can't reach my mom!" 

"It's okay," I told her. The clinic will reach your mom. Convinced I was telling her the truth, she went off to the clinic.

I'd felt fine up until that point, but on the way home, had to pull over on the interstate (it wouldn't hold) because I was sick. Could I have caught it and gotten sick so quickly, or was it a coincidence? I don't know, but here I am home sick today, super tired and definitely in need of a quality massage. Enter the Snailax Shiatsu Massage Cushion.

New Movie: 5000 Blankets

Inspired by a remarkable true story, 5000 BLANKETS is filled with hope and highlights the power of family and faith. When her husband has a mental breakdown and goes missing, a woman and her young son set out to find him on the streets, sparking a movement of compassion towards those in need and inspiring a city.

I have a huge heart for the homeless. Huge. I don't often know how to help. We have volunteered to help cook meals once a month and serve meals to the homeless in our community, but a safety issue arose that was specific to that one place but enough to make us cautious enough not to return. We also give food to those who are homeless when we pass them by. It's not enough, and we want to be safe, but still find a way to help. 

This movie inspires me.

There are so many ways to help. So many things that can be done.

Homelessness, no matter the reason, is unsettling. A tragedy.

I am very much looking forward to seeing this movie.
