HOT + SWEET Smoked Spanish Paprika Powder

Up until a short time ago I only thought there was one kind of Paprika. I didn't know there were different kinds just the one you find for a 1.00 in the stores. Well here we are years later a little older and much more bolder ready to give those other Paprika's a try

The other night I made Lemon Butter Chicken which called for smoked Paprika. You can read about that dinner here.

I notice most recipes don't tell you if they want sweet or hot so I used a dash of both. Dinner turned out wonderful and this recipe will go into our make again recipes.

You can purchase HOT + SWEET Smoked Spanish Paprika Powder here or on Amazon.


What Kiva has to say about their product.

We imported our smoked paprika from the famous La Vera region of Spain. Following a century old recipe, hand-harvested peppers are smoked dried over holm oak for a minimum of 14 days . This gives our paprika its unique rich flavor. 

Sweet Smoked Paprika: Deep, rich flavor with a slightly sweet undertone. 
Hot Smoked Paprika Deep, rich, slightly spicy flavor 

Our paprika is only made in small batches to ensure optimum aroma, color and flavor. 

Suggested Use: Adds flavor and depth to rice, meat, seafood, stews, soups, eggs, vegetables, etc.

Lavo Giro Review and Giveaway

I passed this onto my teenage daughter so she will have her own system for when she goes away from college. She couldn't wait to use it. Her favorite part is the body brush which she uses on the breakouts that occur across her shoulders. 

Personally I like that it comes with a pumice stone. I am thinking about sneaking it so I can use it on my feet. This is great for home and travel use. Just pop in your batteries and you are all set for a cleaner healthier body. 

You can enter to win your own Lavo Giro Cleansing System here.

Another product we were able to tray out was the Lavo Deep Cleansing Oil. I use this with my own Cleansing system but what I love most about it is how easy it is to remove eye makeup with it. The biggest reason I don't wear eye makeup often is that you are usually left with raccoon eyes trying to remove mascara. Not with this. I am not longer afraid to wear mascara. Here is it showing my bright blue eyes off. 

You can purchase the Lavo Giro on Amazon as well as the Lavo Deep Cleansing Oil.

Mom's Journey: Practical Tips for Raising Kids

MarksvilleandMe reviews 

Mom's Journey: Practical Tips for Raising Kids

written by
Limor Friedman

As a parent you are always wondering if you are doing things right so reading other parenting books and magazines give us insight on ideas we can try as well as those to stay clear from. With Mom's Journey: Practical Tips for Raising Kids it is no different, this book was written by a mom for other parents, she wanted to share what worked and didn't work for her while raising her children.

I can't lie and say I agreed with all of her tactics but she does raise valid points on other issues, and some that we have already implemented in our years of raising children, on our own. You pick what will work for your family and child. No one but you as the parent can make the decision on what is right or wrong in raising your children. Everyone has their own way of doing things even if some are just like other parents out there.

As parents we are to love unconditionally and raise our children to be able to take care of themselves one day. It doesn't happen over night but over a lifetime of being a parent.

You can purchase on Amazon

Children cats books : " I am Dreaming About..

MarksvilleandMe reviews 

I'm Dreaming About....

written by 

Dan Jackson.

Being a mother I have read tons of books to my children over the years as well as quite a few from Dan Jackson in the last year. He can sure pump out the books. My daughters and grand daughters have all enjoyed being read to including those they have read themselves. 

This is the second I'm Dreaming book I have read and reviewed. The first one was about dogs, this one is about cats. Amazing details about Cats sleeping are ready to be learned by you and your child. 

We learned many things about a Cats sleeping that we had not known before. I wonder which animal Dan Jackson will write about next?

You can purchase  I am Dreaming About.on Amazon.
