Received a sample for free
I haven't really tried hazelnut spreads before because I didn't think I would like them but I was really surprised that I liked this! I had a craving for something sweet and remembered this freebie so I gave it a try.
It is very silky and easy to spread. The taste is perfect, not too sweet but sweet enough to settle a craving. I will definitely purchase some of this to keep in the cupboard.

I have been making homemade pizza for years after tiring of another brand's boxed pizza kit. I didn't think I would like this kit but I did! It was super quick.
You only need to add water to the flour mix, knead for 3 min and let stand for 15 min. I prepped all of our toppings while it sat and had the 1st pizza in the oven less than 20 min after I opened the box. It is recommended for 2 smaller pizzas or one large but as I like thin crust I made 2 full large ones and it was perfect. Even the sauce was ample for both pizzas.
Even if you normally make your own crust I seriously recommend you keep box or two of this in your cupboard for times when you want a quick homemade pizza.

Recently found these pods on sale so decided to try them. The coffee seems weaker than when I use Maxwell House grounds in my reusable plastic pods but it is still very good. I love the handiness of the pods when I just want 1 cup but do find them too expensive for everyday use as I often drink several cups a day.
The outer part of the kcup is recyclable but I am not sure if it is any more environmentally friendly than regular knockoff pods that are sold loosely packed together in foil.

Our family absolutely loves this cereal. It is loaded with many vitamins and minerals not found in a lot of cereals. It keeps you full until lunch but it isn't cheap. It is one of the more expensive cereals out there and rarely goes on sale. I have to watch how often I buy it because it goes very fast in our household and the cost can really add up if you have it as a staple cereal. -

I find my two swiffers to be handy for quick cleanups. I have one set up with antibacterial for use in my kitchen and one with wood floor cleaner for the rest of my home.
They definitely make little messes faster to deal with and less messy than pulling out the mop but don't replace the need for a mop entirely in my opinion as they don't clean as well.
The one issue I did have with them is they changed the design of the bottle awhile back which required purchasing a new Swiffer kit when I ran out of refills. If they change the design again I am finished with using it because that is too much to spend over and over.

I only buy bounty when it is on sale because I do find it to be the most expensive but it is also my preferred brand. I sometimes have to purchase another brand but always wind up unhappy with it. If your clean ups consist of tiny spills then regular paper towel is probably fine but with kids and dogs in my household I find that I use less of Bounty during their cleanups than other brands. -

I absolutely love these wipes and even take them with me on holidays! We have all seen or read about the bacteria and viruses found in hotel rooms so I like to travel with one of the smaller containers. After the maid has done her/his thing I quickly wipe over surfaces (especially the remote controls and light switches) with a wipe to ensure our room is as clean as possible. Although I can't be certain it is because of the wipes I can say we've never gotten sick in any of our travels.
I keep a container of wipes under the bathroom sink at home for quick freshen ups between cleanings. It is easy to quickly wipe down surfaces and dispose of. The bathroom looks and smells cleaner without all the mess of other methods too.

These are the only cakes we have in our house for birthdays, even in the dead of winter. My daughter favours the strawberry cheesequake ones whereas my sons like the chocolate cookie ones. The flavour is wonderful and if there are leftovers 9which I doubt) it is easy to slip into the freezer to save for a later date.
I recommend that you remove the cake at least 10 minutes before serving for easier cutting. You can also preorder them to ensure you get the exact size, flavour and decoration that you want.

This protein bar doesn't taste like a typical protein bar, which in itself is probably not a bad thing. The texture is definitely lighter than regular bars and the lemony flavour is a nice change from the usual chocolate or peanut butter flavour.
I think these bars will be a nice alternative especially in the summer as they seem almost refreshing!
