Honey Bunches of Oats Tropical Blends

It's not new to anyone that am always ALWAYS hungry.  Cereal has always been a great alternative for those moments where you turn into a diva out of hunger.  (LOL)

As part of a product review, I received a box of Honey Bunches of Oats from Purex Insiders.  All the reading about eating more whole grains, less calories, less sugar blah blah what about TASTE??

Only cereal in my household is raisin bran.  But this one has earned a special place in the pantry.  Now I have the two. 

Honey Bunches of Oats is refreshing and tropical with real crispy mango and coconut.  Feel like dried fruit on oatmeal with a crunch and none of the gooey wooey stuff of oatmeal.  

My little cousin loved it too! which means is also kid approved.

10g whole grain

120 calories

6g sugar

9 essential vitamins and minerals including 60% daily value of iron

Perfect summer breakfast.

Spring-like Weather=Spring Sandals

Recently, my area got hit again with another winter storm.  As much as I love snow, cold weather makes me wish for warmer weather and as a shoe lover, warm weather makes me wish for sandals and new  shoes. 

Today, SHOES are on my mind and on the blog.  As part of a product review, I received a pair of Fibi & Clo's Newstar Sandals from Jen Spencer, an independent fashion agent for Fibi & Clo.

Even Milo liked them. 

A very unique style.  Amazingly comfortable because of its cushioned sole.

 

I normally wear a 7.5 but is not offered in half sizes, so I got them in 8 and fit like a glove. 

I was worried about the rhinestones being a little too much but as you can see, they are gorgeous and perfectly sized.  Perfect sparkle they're almost like Cinderella sandals.  I am considering covering it with a layer of clear nail polish for preservation :) although they seem to be of high quality, although I havent really tested durability, I don't think they'll fall off easily. 

Another thing I was worried about was the "thong".  Thong sandals can be uncomfortable between your toes.  Although I have not been able to wear them outdoors, I have worn them several times around the house and love them.  

No feeling of awful pressure on my feet nor between the toes. 

Very comfortable.

HIGHLY recommended. 

KEEPERS!

These Cinderella sandals retail for only $49.50

About Jen: communicating with her was very easy, she answered all questions and quickly responded to any email messages promptly and efficiently and most importantly, professionally and the sandals shipped super fast.  For more information you can contact Jen Directly by

Honeycat Cosmetics: and am feeling chocolaty sexy

"What is it with women and cats? In ancient times it was believed that a parasite living on cats could infect their female owners, rendering them sexy, desirable, fun-loving, and, ahem...,unfaithful. "
This is how Honeycat Cosmetics was brought about. Bringing a wide array of products to make grooming time and event to appeal to the sexy feline in you! Need pampering? try these:


Seriously, nothing makes me feel prettier than a nice bath and a good scent, but honestly there is nothing that makes me feel sexier than bath treat ... I call it spa time at home!:)

As part of a product review, I received these sexy products from Honeycat Cosmetics.  First up is
Chocolate Bath Melt Treats.  Who doesnt like chocolate especially when you can enjoy it without the calories.  Leaves your skin feeling great and your self feeling sexy!!!


It really looks and smells like a gourmet box of chocolates.  Just throw one in the tub, sit back and enjoy :)  made with mango butter, aloe, cocoa butter, vitamin E and fragrance.  Champagne welcome :)

Next,
Chick of the Sea Foaming Bath Crystals... there's no bubble bath without the bubbles ;) this is made of Chocolate, raspberry and mint.  I am yet to use this one as is a one-time use for one of those nights that turn into day without you even knowing ;)


and my favorite:

You Got to Be Kitten Me: I love the name too!
This is my go to shower gel for when I need that extra pick-me-up, leaves my skin soft because is made of shea butter, pomegranate, sweet almond oil, and cocoa butter, as Honeycat Cosmetics say "is like taking a bath standing up"! and they're not kidding.  Is thick so you wont need a lot which means it will last.   This one too, involves all of your senses except taste even though you will want to.

Best of all, you'll feel and smell great not just after your shower but all day long.
