Kraft Smooth Peanut Butter
This is our go-to peanut butter! Someone told me I should try the natural stuff because it has less sugar but Kraft actually only has 1g more sugar than the natural kind (the one I saw anyway) and for the price and taste I will use this EVERY time.

We received a sample of this and I made it tonight...it was OK. I actually added a bit of water to it because it was SO incredibly thick, even after everything was mixed in. My boyfriend described it as 'food court butter chicken' meaning it's decent, but far from gourmet and authentic. I know of a few other brands of sauce which are a lot better if we aren't going to buy it from a restaurant. -
McCain Deep 'n Delicious Chocolate Cake
Is this the chocolate cake your Mom baked - no. But if you crave chocolate cake - this TOTALLY does in a pinch! It's inexpensive - and often on sale - and quick and easy. Once you take it out of the freezer and cut off a piece, pour yourself a glass... +
Is this the chocolate cake your Mom baked - no. But if you crave chocolate cake - this TOTALLY does in a pinch! It's inexpensive - and often on sale - and quick and easy. Once you take it out of the freezer and cut off a piece, pour yourself a glass of milk and it's melted just enough to get that slightly frozen, still rich and gooey taste! -
Essie Nail Polish
Ahhh - I'm SO torn on Essie! On one hand they do have fabulous colors and release new ones often, but on the other hand I really don't like the brush and find it goes on a bit streaky so I have to use more polish to get enough coverage on my nails... +
Ahhh - I'm SO torn on Essie! On one hand they do have fabulous colors and release new ones often, but on the other hand I really don't like the brush and find it goes on a bit streaky so I have to use more polish to get enough coverage on my nails.
It wears decently - though I use a different brand's top coat - so overall I have to give it a thumbs up and will continue to buy shades that intrigue me...but overall I like a few other brand's better.

If you want to have really spiky looking lashes for a halloween costume for a dress up party then this is the mascara for you! However, if you don't like overly fake looking, clumpy lashes then skip this. I was lucky I got it for free because a friend who sells Younique earned some of these and gave them out because there is NO WAY I would spend $35 on a mascara - especially this one!
You also have to apply it a bit differently than you would normal mascara which is just weird. I personally think even the cheapest fake lashes look better on most people than this mascara. I can tell a mile away when someone is wearing it ;)
Removing it is more difficult than most as well I found.

We recently tried these because we saw they were on sale, so we picked them up instead of our usual patties and they were delicious!! They were a nice change. We usually use the patties because my daughter likes to put ham and eggs between them to make little sandwiches ;) But we will serve these as well because BF and I loved them. -
McCain Potato Patties
When making breakfast, patties are my favorite. These cook up nicely, and don't take too much time, and are crispy and flavorful without being too greasy.

Eucerin Daily Protection Moisturing Body Lotion SPF 15

I used this on my chest and neck for sun protection - those areas are often sensitive and can break out if the right product isn't used. I did find this a wee bit greasy but it didn't break my skin out! I have since switched back to Aveeno, but would consider using this again, or recommend it to those with sensitive skin. -
Eucerin Repair Hand Cream 5% Urea
I tried this hand cream after having great luck with the foot cream and liked it. It smells a bit 'lotion-y' which I don't love, but the cream worked well to soften my hands.

I had a few annoying rough spots on my heel and my pedicurist sold me some expensive cream which helped - but only a bit. A friend recommended this cream so I bought it and it healed up my dry spots within a week! I wish I had have got this one first and saved myself some money! -
