I don't have the Special Edition but I did receive a Keurig 2.0 300 series last fall for review and testing and to keep. I do like my Keurig but I would not recommend the Keurig 2.0 to anyone. There's just too many little annoyances that the regular Keurig does not have. I would buy another one but just a normal high end Keurig not a 2.0. This special edition model seems ok but I'd have to do some research on it before I'd buy it and read some reviews and ask around for people that I know who might have one and ask them what they think about it. I'm real big on asking people for first hand experience with products. They have nothing to lose or gain by telling you what they think. I do the same if someone asks me for my opinion on a product or service. I do prefer the French Press, which I still use because I still purchase coffee beans and I grind them myself at home. Nothing beats a French Press. It's one of the oldest methods of making coffee. -

I grew up using Carnation Evaporated milk. There was always a can in the fridge or on the table at mealtime. I've used it as milk for my cereal, mixed with water of course. But today I always have some in the pantry. It's good to use anywhere you would normally use milk, pretty much. From cream soups, sauces, deserts, icing, and as a coffee or tea creamer. It's actually really excellent in coffee or tea or in hot chocolate. You can even whip it when it's super cold. I've never tried whipping it but apparently it does work but must be used right away after it's whipped. As for the price. When it's not on sale, I see it for approximately $1.69 in most grocery stores. On sale it's anywhere from $1.00 to 1.25 and I see coupons in booklets sometimes. -
Vichy Idealia Life Serum

This product applies well, not incredibly thick which is good but it is really creamy. I find the feel of the product stays on my skin for too long. I don't like the feeling of having a product on my skin, well after the product should have absorbed into the skin. It also did not change the appearance of my skin. Don't think I'd be purchasing this for myself. -

I found these dates at Food Basics and they're also available at Metro here in Ontario. These are the very best dates I have ever tasted. It comes in a 1kg square tub for 5.99 at Metro and 4.99 at Food Basics but they seldom carry them so I get them at Metro. The dates are very moist and taste great. I use them in muffins, I eat them right out of the tub, I chop them up on top of cereal, and I make date squares with them. Dates are high in fiber and are good for you. They do contain a fair bit of natural sugar because it is after all a dried fruit. I keep them in the fridge, they seem to taste better cold. I've tried dates from other suppliers and I much prefer these ones. I highly recommend them. -
Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick
This is a really great lipstick that offers great looking shades that give optimal coverage without drying out your lips and has really good staying power, so that you're not constantly reapplying. The colors are very intense also.

Capricorn Genuine Australian Soft Eating Liquorice
This is by far the best soft black liquorice I've ever tasted. Other than the ones that are shaped as cigars with the tip in red candy that I use to see all the time as a kid. I never really liked black liquorice, I was always a red liquorice type... +
This is by far the best soft black liquorice I've ever tasted. Other than the ones that are shaped as cigars with the tip in red candy that I use to see all the time as a kid. I never really liked black liquorice, I was always a red liquorice type of person but for some reason I've acquired a taste for it just recently. I can no longer find it at Costco and so I noticed that Dollarama sells this licorice and you can get a 170g bag for $2.00 which is not too bad. It's not organic by any means but the ingredients aren't too bad at all. A bit high in calories at 100 cal for 3 pieces with 14g of sugar. But it is a treat so just don't eat the entire bag and you'll be ok lol. -

This is my first time ever trying Laughing Cow Cheese. The commercials looked very tempting so I decided to purchase some at Costco. It is very excellent. I actually prefer it over cream cheese. I find it a bit expensive but it is a very good tasting cream type cheese that is excellent on bagels, toasts, baked potatoes, crackers, and raw veggies. I tried the plain variety. I will continue to purchase this product. I love how it comes in a round cardboard type container and each packet is individually wrapped in an easy to open pie shaped wedge. It's perfect for a snack with some crackers. Very smooth, creamy, and mild taste. Does not taste at all like cream cheese it simply has a taste of its own. -

This is one of my favorite crackers. I love the thin ones and these regular ones equally. The cracked pepper and olive oil is good and my ultimate favorite is the sundried tomato. They kinda taste a tiny bit like ketchup chips lol. Very good with cream cheeses and any type of hard or soft cheese equally. I also like them alone or with hummus. -
