Dixon's gin Fusion - cumber, ginger, mint & lime flavour
oh how i adore this cooler. Like a perfect cocktail in a can. Gin-based, not too sweet and a wonderful balance of cucumber, mint, lime and ginger flavours that tasted clean, crisp and natural. The only problem is I can't find it at the LCBO anymore!... +

The only problem is I can't find it at the LCBO anymore! It was very tough to find last summer and this summer I bought a few cans online early in the season. Well, it must've been the last of their stock b/c it's been unavailable since. Please bring it back! -

I love making cocktails, especially grapefruit-based ones, but not convenient to do so when we are at the beach or on our boat. These do quite nicely in those instances. Nice grapefruit flavor. And I love that it's gin-based (gin cocktails are always superior to vodka-based ones in my book). Wish that it was a little less sweet. Could easily cut the sugar down by a 1/3 to 1/4 in my opinion and it would taste even better. As it is I dilute with carbonated water so it's less sweet. -

Love this liner. I use it in black brown which is the perfect shade for those with very dark hair. Tyically black liners are too dark and brown liners too reddish so the colour doesn't blend in well with the brow hair. This colour blends in perfectly. I like to keep it in the fridge so I can apply lightly (if it gets too warm or isn't very sharp it can go on a little too smudgy for my taste). Would like it if the forumlation could be a little drier so this doesn't happen. The brow brush cap is nice, though not really necessary as every girl has brow brushes lying around. Would rather they put a plain cap on it and reduce the price as the price of the product has gone up a LOT over the past couple of years. -
Eggo Plus Fibre Blueberry Flavour Waffles
Like to keep frozen waffles on hand as a treat for my son (oh ok, and for myself). I like that these have extra fibre but don't taste like it. Just as good as "regular" waffles. Blueberry flavour is my favourite. Wish it was sold in the 16 packs... +
Like to keep frozen waffles on hand as a treat for my son (oh ok, and for myself). I like that these have extra fibre but don't taste like it. Just as good as "regular" waffles. Blueberry flavour is my favourite. Wish it was sold in the 16 packs though. Perhaps it is but I've never seen it at any of my grocers. -

Amazing body wash. My skin is sensitive and I get bad reactions to some products that are heavy on perfumes, dyes and certain chemicals. This one doesn't irritate my skin. I also love the mild aloe scent and that it's not "girly" so my husband and son can use it as well. Price point is excellent too. -
NYX Matte Liquid Liner

I've tried oh so many liners in my holy grail quest. From ones that are hella pricey (kat von D, nars, stila) to drugstore cheapies. And everytime something was an issue (too shiny, too runny, bad applicator, colour transfer). Until this one! Brush tip is great, product is easy to apply as a fine line, stays put when dry but easy to remove, and it's not shiny!!!! I would love it to be even more matte were that possible, but that's a minor quibble. All this and it's a budget liner! Just wish it were easier to find in stores...but for now I've been stocking up on it on Amazon. -
Cavendish Farms Straight Cut Fries

I'm normally not a big fry person and I definitely never deep fry at home (hello stinky closet!) but my son has been on a poutine kick lately and given how pricey takeout can be I've started making it at home. And these fries have been perfect for that. Crisp up nicely in the oven (though not excessively...you don't want that for poutine). And I like that some peel is left on...adds flavour. -
WOODYS COOLERS (GRAPEFRUIT)

I love grapefruit flavoured drinks and am always keen to try new ones in my holy grail quest. This one ain't it. "Grapefruit" flavour is acrid and artificial. Sugar content is way too high. I had to dilute 3:1 with carbonated water just to choke it back. Avoid this product. Blackfly grapefruit gin fizz is a much better alternative. -

Love this water. Taste is crisp and it holds carbonation well. It's my go to brand now, preferable over perrier and pellegrino. Husband likes the flavourless one but the lemon flavoured is my favourite. Again, better than the perrier lemon flavoured water. Not acrid or artificial tasting. Bonus points for price (I can usually score it for between $1 - $1.25 at the grocery store) and that it's CANADIAN! Much rather buy locally sourced spring water than stuff sourced from Europe and shipped over (helllooo carbon footprint). -
