Cafe' Bustelo K-Cup Review

Image
It's a cold New York Sunday, and ironically I have off for once! I am delighting in the fact of sleeping in a little as well as all the coffee I want! So I know my Cafe' Bustelo review was such a hot topic. I had so many amazing comments from people all over the world. I loved to hear their stories on what Cafe' Bustelo meant to them. It just goes to show you how coffee is so much more than a drink. It's a memory. It's family. It's comfort. With that being said, you guys are going to like me again because I loved the Cafe' Bustelo Kcups!! I purchased the Cafe' Bustelo Espresso blend K-Cup. I believe they also make a Colombian blend. I brewed it on the regular 8oz setting on my Keurig with a bit of half and half. It was such a good strong cup of coffee. It really reminded me of a French Roast coffee. You get that earthy back drop on every sip. If you drink it black, I can imagine you would be in heaven. It is very very dark when it brews. I frot...

Weekly Run Down 12/4/14

Happy Holidays! I hope you all had a very happy and thankful Thanksgiving. Mine was quiet but oh so very happy spending it with my husband. We had a nice little dinner together. I worked the next day. But got to see my family on the weekend. I love them all. Especially being with them this time of year. I feel bad for people who may be alone during the holidays. Always invite people, friend, co-workers to your house (if you know them of course lol). You never know who may be sad and alone. This is a rough time of year for so many people as well.

Zep Cleaning Mission Review

Image
Morning all. One of my newest "missions" I have gotten to try thanks to Crowdtap is Zep all around cleaner and disinfectant spray. They gave me four bottles in total to try. The first one I tried was the all around cleaner & degreaser with OXY. All in all I thought it was a good cleaner. It got up stains on my white counter right away. It wiped away clean with no residue. I tried it on my oven and that was the only place I would say the product fell short. It says on the bottle you can leave it on a minute and wipe it off. So I did, thinking it would clean the stains on the bottom. But to my surprise it dried up a bit. Made it hard to wipe off. When I did some of the dirt came up but no where near what I was expecting. I would rate the cleaning product a 4 out of 5 stars. If it cleaned the stove better, would have been perfect 5. I like that it didn't have any harsh bleach chemicals. It was clear. The second bottle I tried was the disinfectant spray. It says it...

Black Friday Coffee Deals

Good afternoon. I write to you from a sad place today. My cousin passed away the other night from ALS. It's such a sad disease because there is no cure. My heart goes out to his family. To all the families dealing with this heavy burden every day. I find that I am a pretty positive person, but some times too much weighs on you. And you inevitably give in to being depressed. I felt like that last night. One of our fish died too. My husband is still looking for work. It's just ridiculous that there are no positions for hire. It all just gets to be too much. But I woke up today. And still found so many things to be thankful and positive for. In spite of all of that. That's when you know you have courage and faith. When you can smile when things get tough and all signs say give up. If anyone is reading this and needs some cheering up or a little Hope. I am here for you. Don't falter. Brighter days will be ahead. Hang tight. I am here in the journey with you :) Here ...

T.G.I.F 11/7/14

Good evening all. T.G.I.F to you guys who have the weekend off. I will be working until Monday. My day was good. A little long and boring at the job. But I guess it's the calm before the storm. Was hoping for some good news from my husband who went on yet another interview god knows how many he has been on, but had no luck. I'm sad but I am hopeful. I know so many people are in his position. It just hurts he deserves to have something after all this time. But I have faith it will happen eventually! So what are your weekend plans?

The Holidays Are Here...

Image
I hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween. I worked most of the week and weekend, so the day of I just stayed in and had a marathon of me and my husbands favorite show. Supernatural. It was perfect for Halloween. I also made mac and cheese for the first time in the slow cooker. It was so creamy and good. (A little too good). I definitely will only be eating that once or twice a year lol. So I know you are either like me or against me in the fact that right after Halloween I am in Holiday mode. This has always been my favorite time of year. I love everything about it. The food. The atmosphere. I put up all my decorations. The only thing I need now is a little tree, and some lights. I already have been playing holiday music and watching Christmas movies :) When do you guys start holiday decorating and getting into the spirit? I know there are some people who put up their tree the night of (which seems silly to me) only because then you take it down only two weeks later. But it is...

Tuesday Run Down: Catching up...

Image
Hello my readers. Happy Tuesday. I hope your work week is going well. I have been doing extra hours at my job, as well as many other things in my crazy life. So forgive the absence of posts. Let's play catch up... So things are going really good in my life. Me and my husband have been working things out. We were separated the past year which was probably one of the worst things I've ever been through. He's going through a tough time still finding work. It's very hard out there, staying positive is a daily struggle. But I am very hopeful. I know things will turn around. We both deserve it. Work has been great.  It's getting to be that time of year again when the air gets a bit crisp and all things magical happen... So that's that. Now for the fun stuff... Coffee, Tea, and everything in between you need to know :) Here is a great video review from "Crew Review" for Kuchenprofi Tea Infuser. I think this is so cool. I drink tea almost every night...
