This is such a precious book. I always give it to soon to be parents in baby shower gifts.
Robert Munsch lives in the town I work in, and I have met him a few times at work functions. I had several copies signed by him at one function and that made a special gift for some friends.
The story is so sweet and what a great memory to share with your own child.

I purchased Nailene So Natural Stick on nails for the first time just before Christmas. I was going away on vacation for a week and wanted a nail finish that would last the entire time. Regular nail polish doesn't last more than 24 hours for me.
I decided to try the stick on version rather than going to a salon in hopes to save a little money. After doing some research and watching some videos, I settled on the Nailene product.
I put the nails on Christmas morning before going to a Christmas dinner. (We were leaving for the trip on the 26th)
I had to shape several of them as they ones that were long enough for my natural nails were too wide but they shaped easily.
I was immediately disappointed though as 3 fell off throughout the day with little to no pulling.
That night I re-glued them on and went to bed. I think my original issue was not allowing the glue significant time to adhere and dry. Next time I purchase these I would put them on before bed and allow my sleeping time, time for the nails to adhere.
They stayed attached for the entire week I was away, with lots of time spent in the ocean and swimming. The nails I picked has a gold sparkle French tip. The actual polish though had worn off by day 3. I would assume due to the excessive wetness. So while I still have nice long nails, the polish (What I actually wanted) did not last.
I would purchase these again but only the plane French tip and not fancy decorated ones as the decorations wear off too quickly.

I received this product for free to review, opinions are my own.
I decided to purchase Coconut Dream with my coupon instead of the cashew as we drink almond milk often and I wanted to try something not nut based.
It was delicious! I actually purchased two. One to bake with and one to try with cereal and in a smoothie. I used it 1:1 ratio as I would with regular milk. It worked great! I didn't notice any difference in moistness level or taste in the banana bread recipe I made. I did notice a slight taste difference in the smoothie but it tasted great. I did not enjoy it on my cereal but I think because it was so different than plane milk. Not because of bad taste.
As far as a milk replacement this product was in the same category as other non-dairy beverages I have tried in the past. Taste wise, it was nice to have a different taste other than just almond (my normal purchase).
I would definitely purchase this product again. Not for cereal consumption but for sure for smoothies and baking. My hubby is lactose free and I am always excited when I find new non-dairy or lactose free items that can be easily substituted for plane milk.
I would be very interested in trying some other Dream varieties in the future. It makes my life so much easier when I have options to replace milk with!
I will recommend this product to family and friends. I have already told my mom to purchase it as she currently enjoys almond milk in her smoothies.

I really enjoy going into Bed Bath and Beyond to shop. While I find that the prices are quite high, lately I have noticed on some products that they are willing to match other stores advertised prices, so that is good.
I find this store to have a lot unique products that are always fun to look at. Especially kitchen gadgets. they also have nice pillows and bed sheets.
The staff are always friendly, and although it is not their fault, their sales pitch every time you check out is a little ridiculous. They are made to ask each customer like 14 questions. A lot of employees will apologize to you for having to ask so many questions.
I would recommend this store.

I really do like this anti-bacterial hand gel. It works great and makes me feel a little better about having clean hands. I also love the smell of the Paris flavour. it is a little perfume smelling of flowers but it is feminine and enjoyable. The only downfall about this particular flavour is it has sparkles in it. There have been times when I forget about that and put it on my hands immediately before I have a big meeting or something and i feel a ltitle silly having sparkles all over the place. Other than that, it does what I need it to do. I would recommend this product to friends. -

I don't always enjoy the taste of coffee but still need that pick me up in the morning so i often drink energy drinks. I enjoy the sugar free options as i feel less quilty about drinking them so often. I really enjoy the rockstar pure zero brand. Especially the silver ice flavour. it contains vitamins as well as caffeine and taurine. I find that it gives me a small boost in energy for several hours and I don't have a drastic drop off that i sometimes see with other energy drinks.
i would recommend this to friends.

While these are more of a tasty treat than a medicinal product, I enjoy having them in my bag whenever I am out. When i have a dry mouth or a small throat tickle I can pop one of these in my mouth and be satisfied.
I enjoy the flavour and find that they aren't too strong so younger children will also use them without complaint as some other halls flavours are quite strong and children will spit them out.

This is a lifesaver (or shirtsaver!) I keep a stick permanently packed with our travel toiletries. It really comes in handy when out for dinner or somewhere where you don't have access to a sink.
Also great when you won't be washing that piece of clothing for several days.
I recommend this to all my friends.

This bisquick has been a lifesaver! I received a box free at a food show I attended for work purposes and my gluten free husband gobbled it up! He loves to make waffles with the mix. The box I was able to find at our local walmart is quite small and only makes about 2 and a half batches of waffles, which for the price point I think is a little slim. It is over 5 dollars for the box. But the waffles freeze great and hubby is able to reheat them in the toaster for quick work day breakfasts.
I also have used the mix to make biscuits on top of a chicken pot pie and they turned out great.
