I, thankfully, rarely have to wear chap stick but, I have tried Burt's Bees and I found that, not only did it feel heavy on my lips, it actually seemed to dry them out.
The price is, in my opinion, quite a bit more than other brands and, without it being effective for me, I would not purchase it again in the future.

My daughter and I both purchased this mascara as well as a few other Rimmel products. We were both less than thrilled with the products that we bought.
This mascara seemed to not want to provide any coverage and, what was visible, was very clumpy and easily flaked off. There was very little in terms of durability.
It also had a strong odour which didn't make us too comfortable about putting it near our eyes at all.
There was not one product that we purchased that we felt happy about in this line and, neither of us will be buying Rimmel products again in the future.

I received a KitchenAid mixer as a wedding gift over 30 years ago. It just stopped working last month. I used it all the time and loved it so much! I own a small catering company and found that I used many of the added attachments as well as the standard ones.
I will definitely be looking to purchase another one in the very near future as I feel a lost without it. They are a little on the pricey side but, considering how long my last one worked for and how often I used it to make delicious food for my family and for my business, I couldn't be happier with the quality!

Crock Pot
I love my Crockpot for soups, dips, hot chocolate, and economical cuts of roasts. It does a fantastic job of making meat tender and it is so convenient for days that we are super busy. I own a small catering company and a busy renovating/cleaning... +
I love my Crockpot for soups, dips, hot chocolate, and economical cuts of roasts. It does a fantastic job of making meat tender and it is so convenient for days that we are super busy.
I own a small catering company and a busy renovating/cleaning company. Sometimes, when cooking for my husband and I simply don't want to be in the kitchen for hours as we have so much going on with our work. I can put together something quickly, put it in the Crockpot and, when we are ready to eat, everything is done. Perfect!

While I do like these pods better than other dishwashing cleansers, I do think that they are overpriced.
I would use them exclusively but, if I do not find them in sale when I need to purchase a dishwashing detergent for my home, I will buy another brand that I find comparable.
They do clean my dishes very well and are convenient in pod form.

I own a small catering company (for family and friends). I love cooking and thoroughly enjoy trying and, if they are wonderful, recommending them to everyone.
One day, my husband and I were at our local Costco and they were giving out samples of Nonna Pia's Balmsamic Vinegar drizzled on aged cheddar cheese. Our granddaughter was with us and we tried 3 different flavours of their reduction sauces. While we loved all 3 of them, we especially loved the Classic Reduction the most. Costco had them on special that day and, we purchased 2 bottles.
My granddaughter loved it so much that, instead of dessert that night, she wanted the cheese and reduction. At 8 years-of-age, foregoing ice-cream for anything is a true testament of how delicious this sauce is!
I sent her home with one of the bottles and, she acted as though I had given her a million dollars... and, a pony:)
We put this sauce on many things but, my favourite use is on either a simple tomato, fresh basil, and goat cheese salad or on a spinach, candied walnuts, and goat cheese salad.
They these sauces! They truly are amazing!

I love this iced tea and have been purchasing it for years.
It has an amazing flavour... not too sweet, like I find a lot of drink pouches to be (especially, artificially sweetened ones).
I serve it to guests and, they almost always ask what brand it is as they love it as well.
I do make my own iced tea, from scratch but, as squeezing the lemons and brewing the tea and waiting for it to cool down can be a little time-consuming, Crystal Light Iced Tea pouches are my go to, every time!

I own a renovation/cleaning company and, due to the comfort factor, wear yoga pants at each job. I have purchased expensive yoga pants but, one day, decided to get some from Costco. I am so thankful that I did! Not only are they sold at an incredibly reasonable price, they seem to last forever. The quality is remarkable! They are soft, flexible, and wear very well. -

I bought one of these books for my granddaughter for her birthday. As I was looking through it, once I brought it home, I decided that I wanted to colour in it and that I would buy her another. I love these books! While I do love drawing it is relaxing and therapeutic to sit and colour in these books and, at the end, have a beautiful page to look at. -
