I have tried other Van Houtte varieties in the past, but never this one.
The smooth taste of the Classic Black Medium Roast is amazing.
I was a bit skeptical about it as I hate watered down coffee, but was pleasantly surprised by the outcome.
The medium roast taste is more like a full roast and it is strong, but to the right amount, so not overly empowering and just the right amount that pleases your taste buds.
I filled my tumbler with a few ice cubes and used the ICED button on my Keurig machine to brew the coffee. I added some milk and honey (this is optional and you can also add sugar if you like instead of honey).
I put in 2 extra cubes of ice and literally every taste was just super delicious and refreshing.
It was a warm day too, about 28 degrees Celsius, and I totally enjoyed every sip of it.
The coffee beans used to make the coffee comprised within the Keurig pod are high quality and are roasted to perfection. This is my new go-too on sunny, warm afternoons.
It's almost like having a Starbucks iced coffee, but better and cheaper - saving me tons of money.
The flavor being strong doesn't dilute even as the ice melts, so it doesn't sacrifice being a watered down coffee, but an actual cup of goodness with every sip.
Totally Recommended!!
Two Thumbs up for an amazing product yet again from Van Houtte!!

Disclaimer - Got this free in exchange for my honest review
The Rubik's Coach Cube is such a novel idea. It's a simplified process of learning the Rybik's Cube for beginner's like me who never really tried it as I thought it would be harder.
My nephew and I had a great time learning it (although he was much quicker than me) and the step by step instructions are very well guidelined to follow and adhere too.
To start the experience, the cube is covered in black, numbered stickers. During the 8 steps, you essentially peel off specific stickers to reveal the colors of the Cube beneath.
The stickers are a vital and integral part of how the Rubik's Coach works. You learn where and how to move them and eventually solve it.
The instruction booklet is a detailed step by step guide to all of this and is a phenomenal learning tool for all ages 8+.
I definitely recommend everyone buying this, but I would also note it's a great tool for parents and teachers and educators to use as a learning tool for kids.
Two thumbs up - A whole lot of fun and learning guaranteed!!

I love ice cream. And more than anything I love trying new brands and varieties. The authentic vanilla beans in this are so great. I appreciate the fact that this is not artificial. It's peanut free and egg free.
It's also 100% Canadian dairy made and this is something that I truly appreciate to support local.
It is made with real cream and the packaging is sustainable too.
It comes in a cute 500 ml tub that is convenient to store and carry around and I enjoyed every bite of it.
It is the right amount of sweetness and the creaminess is on another level.
I can't wait to try the other flavors at the store. Two thumbs up and 100% Recommended!!

Looking out for products that are gentle on the skin of babies and kids is a bit difficult. Trying to find products that are as natural as can be can be a daunting task at times. We often want the best for our kids and realized that their skin is different from that of an adult.
Aveeno takes into account the sensitive factor with this product, The face and body wash gently washes away dirt and germs and the hypoallergenic and oats ingredients maintain the moisture level and retain it.
This way, the skin doesn't dry like some other soaps and bodywashes out there.
It is free of dyes, sulphates, parabens etc. and suitable for all skin variations.
It has a gentle scent and is tear-free which is a huge plus point.
100% Recommended - A brand that values its customer base over just making profits.

The Aveeno brand has long been part of our family for many years. I was extremely thrilled to see this addition to their line of products with emphasis towards the needs of babies and kids.
Aveeno kids face face and body gel cream is hypoallergenic and also lightweight and suitable for all skin types.
It provides 24 hr hydration and the absorbs quickly into the skin, thus being non-greasy and helping preventing dryness instantly.
It is free of parabens, dyes and other harmful ingredients, which is a big plus in my books.
It can be applied to face and body.
Kids skin is different from adult skin and needs special care always.
Having prebiotic oats in its core ingredients is a key ingredient that maintains the moisture barrier on the skin and I am glad to see a company look out so much more towards it's products being of high quality standards and being customer focused.

It's such an amazing opportunity to live in a time where the level and the range of toys has expanded so far. It's just unbelievable and exciting. I never had any of these fancy toys growing up and we had to play via our imagination. The kids these days are so lucky to live in a time where there have access to all of these gadgets.
My nephew was extremely ecstatic to get this mask. He is a big fan of the DC comics, movies and all the action figures.
It fitted him so well. And the visor when activated comes with 10+ unique sounds and light effects which kept him entertained for hours.
This is a great present to gift to kids on any occasion - The Flash Hero Set.
It needs just 3 AAA batteries which last quite a while and are easily changeable.
Also, the chin strap is great for adjustments to give it a comfortable feel and the ring bears a lightning bolt symbol which is pretty cool too.
My nephew says he is now part of The Justice League and I couldn't agree more!!

If you are looking for a high quality, professional product that does the job over and above a 100%, this is it. It removes the hairs from the root and leaves your skin smooth and clean.
The wax is to be warmed, which is easy. It has beeswax which is fantastic for smooth, supple skin. You don't need strips. The wax hardens as it cools and the wax becomes the strip itself. It is great for short and stubborn coarse hair on the upper lip, chin, jaw line and other facial areas.
The Ultra Soothe Oil included soothes and softens the skin and prevents ingrown hair from creeping up. After the whole thing, the excess wax can be easily cleaned up and the oil helps prevent any redness. Do not wash your skin or have a bath before the usage is what I would strongly suggest. Use a little bit if you are unsure at first of allergies or irritation or redness. However, after using this, I can definitely say it is a great product, especially for sensitive skin and is made with all natural ingredients.
Two Thumbs up and Totally Recommended!

This was a whole lot of fun. My nephew and I love watching Paw Patrol and Peppa Pig on the weekends when he comes over. He was so happy to see the Paw Patrol gift waiting for him. It was a big tough opening it, so I helped him with it. The packaging is great and very safe and secure with 2 wheel locks that have to be removed in order for the truck to move.
We had a lot of fun imagining the truck on all the adventures we have seen on the TV show.
We plan to make a sandbox next week at home and take it for a drive it through that while making our own episode of the show - haha.
A whole lot of fun if you have a good imagination - especially for kids.
I can't wait to go instore or look online for the other ones in the collection to add to this.
A great gift for all occasions.

This is the best idea ever - A body wash refill that saves about 80% of the plastic used when you keep using and disposing off multiple body wash plastic bottles.
Our family is all about being environmentally conscious and have adopted eco friendly mediums into our day to day living.
The Avenoo refillable pouch is well packaged and durable. It has a cap - so you can easily pour your old bottle up and close it properly and it seals well.
The body wash is creamy and lathers well. It leaves you feeling moisturised and rejuvenated.
It is free of Dyes, Soaps, alcohol, parabens etc. and these a important factors especially when you tend to have dry or sensitive skin.
100% Recommended. The pouch is made of recycled plastic and is the best eco friendly idea I have seen - I hope more companies will adopt this method too.

I was excited to try this lotion for the first time. Lotions have always been part of my daily routine, especially at night when going to bed. The issue with some of them is that they have a strong empowering smell or are greasy and create oil stains.
After using Aveeno, I was pleasantly surprised, that apart from it being fragrance-free (which is a strong plus point for me), it also was non-greasy and absorbed into my skin very easily.
It left me feeling moisturised overnight and fresh the following morning too.
It instantly relieves dry skin and after using it for a few days, I realised that the moisture level of the skin lingers on for a quite a while which is fantastic.
100% recommended for smooth, healthy beautiful skin, especially if you are looking for a product for dry skin.
