I am a major Ben & Jerry's fan, and this ice cream does not disappoint! The coffee ice cream base is fantastic. It is smooth, creamy, high quality ice cream with a delicious coffee flavor. The heath bars are abundant and the chunks are huge! I never thought I would complain about too many add ins, but this ice cream is pretty close to having almost too many heath bars added. The heath bars are delicious, but the problem is, they are so rich and flavorful that they kind of take away from the incredible coffee base. They go really well together, but the coffee ice cream gets a bit lost when eaten alone after eating the heath chunks. Overall, I still give this ice cream 5 stars. It is the high quality, creamy, delicious gourmet ice cream that I'm used to and this flavor is a win. If you like heath bars, give this a try (even if you don't like coffee!) because it just works! Delicious. -

These granola bars are delicious, but not good for you. They're high in sugar and sodium. BUT I keep them on hand because they're really tasty, and they satisfy my chocolate cravings really well (I feel better grabbing one of these than a chocolate bar!)
Would I feed these to kids/adults regularly? No. But they are a nice treat.

I found this product at Shoppers Drug Mart for $18.99. It comes as a 50 mL tube with a twist off lid. The tube sits on its lid, allowing you to use the entirety of the product (nothing left at the end!)
This clay mask is quite thin compared with other clay masks I have used. It is enriched with minerals, kale, watercress, and witch hazel (though I noticed probiotic lactobacillus and cucumber on the ingredient list also).
The mask itself smells nice, light and cucumber-y. It smooths onto the skin easily.
My skin is fairly sensitive, and at no point while wearing this mask for the required 10 minutes have I ever had an issue with itching or tingling (very unusual for me!). It washes off very well and leaves my skin feeling SUPER refreshed, but also softer and brighter looking. My husband loves petting my cheeks after I use this product - they feel so darn soft afterwards! I use this product twice per week and my skin is very happy.
If you have dry, dull, sensitive skin - I highly recommend this product. Works very well and the price is reasonable ($18.99 and I am confident I will get ten uses out of the bottle!)

The Body Shop Satsuma Bar Soap

I absolutely adore the smell of this soap! And because it comes from The Body Shop (ethical) I feel happy about using it. The smell is citrusy, orangey and lingers long after you use it. When you wash your hands with this soap, the smell stays for quite a while. My complaint with this soap is that it does seem to be drying. If I use it on my body, my skin gets very dried out and feels yucky. This is a great bar soap for hand washing (as long as you like bar soap, of course) but I wouldn't recommend it for full body. The smell can't be beat, though. Heavenly! -

This cheese is really delicious. It is soft, creamy and spreads really well on crackers (very soft - no cracker breakage!) The package is fairly small for the price but I do find 2 packs at Costco often, and this cuts the price significantly. I really like the herb flavor, but the plain is delicious too. Be careful though, this stuff is addictive! it's a nice mild soft cheese. Great to bring to a party, or just for a Friday night at home. -

I discovered this product while I was in Europe years ago, and I was thrilled to find it in Canada. It is the most delicious, creamy soft cheese - and it is portion controlled for you! Each wedge is around 70 calories - perfect for any of us watching our intake. I love to smooth this on crackers or veggies. I have tried every flavor that The Laughing Cow makes and they are all fantastic - but the original flavor is sure to please EVERYONE! -

My mom introduced me to TSP years ago, and I continue to use it in my own home today. TSP comes in a little container that looks like a milk carton. It is pretty inexpensive (about $10) and it LASTS forever because you really only need to use a little!
I use TSP for any heavy cleaning. Mostly I use it for cleaning my walls - it is amazing how using a bit of TSP makes all of the grime just melt off of my walls. I don't know how anybody manages to get their walls clean without it!
I also love using it to clean things like the outside of my fridge, the bathtub (only a couple of times per year with this stuff - that's all it takes!)
It also works well for tough stains, like on your driveway or other cement surface. Just make a paste of this stuff, let it sit, and watch the stain come out!
For any other "neat freaks" like myself out there, I highly recommend getting a carton of this stuff to keep with your cleaning arsenal. It's a fantastic product and you will not be sorry.

Bolthouse Farms Green Goodness Smoothie

I am so glad I discovered this product. It is jam packed full of good-for-you ingredients for under $5. It's the perfect grab and go snack. I always treat myself to one of these when I am road-tripping, I find these quite often at gas stations on the go.
This smoothie in particular looks disgusting (come on, it's green!) but it tastes really naturally sweet and delicious. Highly recommend for an easy, nutritious snack. The ingredient list is fabulous and the taste is honestly just as good.

I ordered this product on amazon because it was reasonably priced (around $7) and I figured I would give it a try, since I have tried many other Tony Moly products and loved them.
I used this product exactly as directed. It has been 14 days and absolutely nothing has happened. This product was a huge flop. If you have calloused feet that you would like to make softer, I do NOT recommend this product. Waste of money and time.

The product itself is great. Goes on smooth and absorbs nicely, leaving my lips feeling moisturized long term. The pomegranate smell is nice and subtle.
