review of Sprucebay Insulated Picnic Basket - Strong Aluminum Frame - Collapsible Design for Easy Storage - Take it Camping, Picnicking, Lake Trips, or Family Vacations - Keeps Food Cold

Please enjoy this review of Sprucebay Insulated Picnic Basket - Strong Aluminum Frame - Collapsible Design for Easy Storage - Take it Camping, Picnicking, Lake Trips, or Family Vacations - Keeps Food Cold I have been using this picnic basket daily for the last 2 weeks. There are a few things you should know: 1) This basket is attractive 2) You can hold a decent amount of food/drinks in here; it's quite sturdy 3) it will keep food cold for hours 4) it's pretty gender neutral and your sons or hubby won't be afraid to grab this and go 5) it's easy to carry and the zippers move smoothly We are dairy farmers and we are in the middle of corn chopping season. That means I am feeding not only my 4 children, but also a group of hungry men sometimes 3 meals a day. I can pack this picnic basket full of sandwiches, chips, apples, drinks, and cookies and then head off to delivery the goodies. There is always that one guy (usually my father in law) who eats several hours ...

Mia Sarine 18K White Gold Sterling Silver Diamond-Cut Cubic Zirconia Huggie Women's Earrings Offered by Prime Jewelry

These earrings are lovely, however they were smaller than I expected. The part that goes through your ear is a little on the wide side and I found the earrings to be uncomfortable for wearing long periods. They came unclasped easily and I was worried about losing them. I received this product at a reduced rate in exchange for my honest review. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KIHC7U0 #MiaSarine

Review of iPhone 6 / 6s Case, ESR Hybrid Protective Case with Soft TPU Bumper +Hard Back Cover [Scratch Resistant] Cover Case for iPhone 6s and iPhone 6(Mint Mandala)

This case is very pretty. You'll have complete access to your phone/camera/all buttons/plugs, etc... and it will cushion your phone if you drop it. I like that it's a bit clear so you can still see what the phone looks like. So many cases completely hide the phone. The case is well made and seems quite durable. #ESRTotem #UniqueU #ESRiFun #iPhone7 #iPhone6SE #NewiPhone #iPhone2016 I received this product at a reduced rate in exchange for my honest review. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IYECJ6Q

5 Star Review - Disney Bambi Women's Platform Lace-Up Sneaker

These shoes are adorable but also provide nice ankle support. The thick sole makes them comfortable for wearing all day. The sizing is great and they fit comfortably right out of the box. My daughter wears them to school and says they are comfortable for all day wear including gym class and on the playground. She also said they're nice for walking out to the bus (on our gravel driveway) as well as riding her bicycle. She loves the Disney pattern and the comfy feel.

5 Star Review - Carly Creation I Love You To The Moon And Back Silver Expandable Charm Bangle Bracelet

This bracelet is simple, understated, and elegant. I slipped it on last evening and was impressed with the way it goes on. There are no clasps to wrestle with and you don't have to worry about it falling off. I even wore it to bed to make sure it was truly comfortable. It's shiny and adorable. This would be a great buy for yourself as a pick me up, or as a gift for a friend or daughter. It's nice and sparkly and the message is oh so sweet! It's comfortable to wear as an everyday piece too.

SUZARU Professional Chef's Ceramic Kitchen Knife Set Offered by Suzaru Ltd.

I'm a busy mom who likes to prepare our meals from scratch. We also do a lot of gardening which means plenty of canning happens in our kitchen. Every year or so, I seem to find one particular knife that is wonderful. The children refer to it as "Mom's Knife" as it's the one I like to use for everything from slicing carrots to dicing onions and preparing a cheese and sausage tray. Unfortunately, most knives only last a year or so and then something falls apart on them. I'm sure this will not be the case with the Suzaru Professional Chef's Ceramic Kitchen Knife. It really is built to last. Something that is important to me is how the knife feels in my hand. Does it feel top heavy or is it comfortably weighted? Does my hand get sore after I've been chopping for awhile? ETc...I most recently used the Suzaru when chopping tomatoes for salsa. I chopped A LOT of tomatoes and then moved to onions and peppers. After a busy day of canning, this knife still f...

TripWorthy Electric Pencil Sharpener - Battery Operated and Heavy Duty (NO CORD!) - Ideal for No. 2 and Colored Pencils - Small , Compact and Durable - Adult and Kid Friendly - Great for Home , Office or School

The first thing i fell in love with is the slim design - and I also love that this is battery operated (it's actually a love hate relationship because I love not having to find a spot to plug it in, but I hate the fact that my husband will grab it for his desk or my children for theirs). This is a very popular item at our house for sharpening homework pencils, colored pencils for art projects, and pencils I use for editing or writing. This sharpener is well built and works well. We've had it and been using it daily for a week and there is no difference in how it performs. I'm sure we will be happily using this for years to come. Might also make a great teacher gift for the holidays. I received this product at a reduced rate in exchange for my honest review. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DYY7UU6 #TripWorthy

WOW! Women on Writing Book Blog Tour - Review by Cathy Kwilnski of "A Killer's Grace" by Ronald Chapman

Thank you to Cathy Kwilinski for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Review: Journalist Kevin Pitcairn’s journey begins with an unexpected letter from Daniel Davidson, a serial killer facing execution. Pitcairn suddenly finds himself considering ideas about guilt and redemption that the people around him, even his beloved girlfriend Maria Elena, find abhorrent. Readers of A Killer’s Grace just might find themselves embarking on a similar journey as they make their way through this book. Ronald Chapman has created a stunning and remarkable tale that challenges how we think about grace. Chapman keeps the story moving briskly. Pitcairn is a complex, sensitively drawn protagonist who is easy to love despite his flaws and weaknesses. He brings the reader along with him on an intense journey to meet the people who live in the ripples of Davidson’s crime...

Review for: Maxx Elite MaxxDouble Bottle Warmer & Sterilizer

I've been using this for a week or so and it makes life easier. I'm new to this bottle warming routine and since I'm watching my newborn niece I need to thaw breastmilk for her feedings. The lower heat setting works great with the Medela freezer bags. It warms the milk without scorching it or causing concern with plastics getting into the milk. I just drop a bag in a little bit before a feeding and the Maxx Elite will thaw the milk and hold it at the perfect temperature until my little snuggly niece is ready for her meal. It also has a setting for sterilizing bottles, so I can use it for sterilizing not only bottles and nipples, but also breast pump parts. This is a handy little thing to have - as a mom and/or caregiver.

LaCuisine 6 Piece Glass Storage Container Set (Kitchen)

Please enjoy this review from: La Cuisine KTLKG6 Lacuisine 6 Piece Glass Storage Container Set (Kitchen) We've been using these containers for a few days. They work great for leftovers, but are also a nice size for veggies. I like to have carrots, celery, peppers, (or whatever is seasonal) cleaned, cut, and ready to go for my kids to grab as a snack. These La Cuisine containers are a nice size for keeping several servings in. The covers fit well but are much easier to operate for little hands. Even my 2 almost 3 year old understands how to open these and close them. Both the glass and the plastic/silicone covers are dishwasher safe. We've washed them several times and are quite happy with the results.

"A Killer's Grace" review by Alison Taylor

Thank you to Alison Taylor for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Alison's Review: I was blown away by Ronald’s Chapman’s novel “A Killer’s Grace” for a multitude of reasons. Chapman’s style really connects to the reader on many levels including but not limited to: suspense, trauma, nature, relationships, and spirituality. I was immediately hooked from the time Kevin Patcairn (main character/journalist) received a letter from a convicted murderer. The criminal is begging to be understood rather than be labelled a “monster” for the horrific crimes he has committed. I’ve always been a sucker for crime stories and this one proves no different. It delves into the criminal psyche and tries to show a potential “reason” or “root cause” for the unacceptable behavior. As a special education teacher, I observe and work with a variety of behaviors, but ...

WOW! Women on Writing Book Blog Tour - Review by Penny Harrison - "A Killer's Grace" by Ronald Chapman

Thank you to Penny Harrison for today's review of: ”A Killer’s Grace” and thank you WOW! Women on Writing for allowing us this opportunity to participate in the book blog tour with Ronald Chapman. Review: While this may not have been my choice of genre in the past, “A Killer’s Grace” has provided me an eye-opening view into the lives and minds of the vibrant characters. Based on true events, the letter with which the story begins was written by a serial killer with a very serious request for help. Without giving too much away, the story follows a columnist’s personal psychological struggle with addiction and his past, as well as delving into the psyche of the death row inmate. The vistas described vividly throughout paint New Mexico beautifully. The characters are equally real and engaging, making the pages turn quickly. Pitcairn’s choice to pursue the story he knows is there, even against his editor’s better judgement, mirrors his determination to redeem his past choices and fai...

Product review for IPhone 6s/6 Plus 5.5 inch case waterproof drop.

This case is super easy to use - I received it less than an hour ago, did the water test like the instructions indicate, and it's already on my phone and I have peace of mind knowing my phone is protected. It went on easily but fit snugly. The instructions are easy to follow and you can tell this is a quality made item. My phone is still just as easy to use as always, and it doesn't add a lot of bulk. Here I am a few days later adding to my review: I can't figure out how to attach the wrist strap. I also can't seem to get my silence button on the side of the phone to work. I didn't notice this until I went to church last night and couldn't silence my phone without turning it off completely. I don't see any other comments that others had problems with this, so maybe it's just me?
