Gave this malted chocolate powder a try. It’s not as protein loaded as some shakes and drinks out there but when mixed with milk it’s a decent source of protein and nutrients. The malted factor gives it a bit of what I found to be an interesting smell, but the taste is good.
It dissolves fairly effectively in liquid, though a power mixer/blender or shaker cup is probably ideal, a spoon to mix will suffice. All in all, it’s not bad. Will see how my son and I feel when we finish the container and decide then if we will purchase again.

Maybelline The City Mini Eyeshow Palette Cocoa City
I think this is a decent palette. The colours are pretty, the pigmentation is good. The glitter shadow is less pigmented, and there is a decent amount of transfer from the glitter as well. Definitely a good plan to use a primer and setting spray... +
I think this is a decent palette. The colours are pretty, the pigmentation is good.
The glitter shadow is less pigmented, and there is a decent amount of transfer from the glitter as well. Definitely a good plan to use a primer and setting spray if you’re using the glittery shade.
The price was okay, the palette is small but there’s an array of colours and shades so I went with it. I will use until I finish, but probably will invest in a higher quality palette next time.

As far as aerosol whipped creams go this is not too bad.
It doesn’t have the gross oily texture that the fake whipped toppings have. It isn’t heavily sweetened or flavoured which is nice since it doesn’t overwhelm what you use it with.
However it also is kind of like eating a fluffy, creamy cloud, since it is light on the flavour. Gay Lea also makes flavoured whipped creams which I haven’t tried though, so if you’re looking for a little extra oompf maybe try one of those.
If anyone sees the Toasted Marshmallow flavoured one out there, please let me know where to find it!

I love my Actifry! There are so many ways to use it, I generally haven’t had anything not turn out delicious.
The exception is frozen yam fries. I find the spinning arm in the machine tends to squish them and they don’t work out the greatest.
This machine cooks the best chicken wings I have had in my entire life! It is a bit pricier than some of the other air fryers out there but worth the investment.
Comes apart easily for quick clean up and the non stick is excellent. I recommend this to all my friends and family members who ask me about it!

Ocean Spray Low Calorie Cranberry Cocktail

Tried this recently. For a low calorie juice (cocktail, not sure that actually counts as juice.. just sayin’!) it’s not too bad. Generally I avoid artificial sweeteners but in this beverage the artificial sweetener didn’t overpower the drink itself.
There is no nutritional benefit to this drink, so would recommend only if you have a craving for a cranberry drink but are watching your sugars. Still better for you than soda, and less sugar than regular juices.

Bick’s Pickled Banana Pepper Rings
These are basically the same banana peppers you throw onto a sandwich at the local Sub*** They are delicious, tender, packed with flavour, and not TOO spicy. They are great in sandwiches, salads, nachos, pizza etc! Not so hot that you can’t eat... +

They are delicious, tender, packed with flavour, and not TOO spicy. They are great in sandwiches, salads, nachos, pizza etc!
Not so hot that you can’t eat a few on their own either. About the same price as pickles. I will always have a jar of these in my fridge!

This dressing is tasty! It puts a twist on a classic balsamic and the creaminess of the yogurt balances nicely with the acidity of the balsamic vinegar. This is great for salads, works well for marinating meats, and also for tossing with some... +
This dressing is tasty! It puts a twist on a classic balsamic and the creaminess of the yogurt balances nicely with the acidity of the balsamic vinegar.
This is great for salads, works well for marinating meats, and also for tossing with some vegetables before roasting or grilling.

This is a great arabica coffee, the vanilla macadamia flavour adds some richness and depth of flavour without the gross chemical taste that other flavoured coffees have.
It’s great on its own, or with milk/cream also. Makes a great iced coffee as well, even cold it doesn’t get a bitterness to it.
The Kauai unflavoured ground coffees are also really good, both the medium and dark roast are in regular rotation in my stash.

I received my Panaway in my YL starter kit. I love this oil blend. It works great for aches and pains, and can use it without a carrier oil as well.
It has a pleasant smell, and offers deep, cooling relief. It is pricy so generally I won’t diffuse this oil but when it’s used sparingly, it is a sound investment. Best value to sign up with YL and earn towards rewards while getting the wholesale price.

I love, love, love this cream!! It is expensive but worth every penny. A jar costs about $150 CDN if you’re willing to splurge. It lasts anywhere from 4-6 months, a little goes a long way!
Start with a “less is more” approach when applying, as not to waste the product. And also not to over-moisturize your skin- because the product is very rich. There is a soft scent that I found fresh and pleasant.
It literally made me look years younger in no time- erasing the fine lines from my forehead that no other product I’ve tried has helped with. Made my skin look supple with a nice glow. The only thing I didn’t love was the packaging.. I feel it could become contaminated if you’re dipping a finger in every time to grab some. For the price, it should come with a tiny spatula to scoop the product with! (Took off half a star for this)
Overall this is a great cream and I would recommend. I will repurchase again in the future.
