FlavFusion Infuser Water Bottle



Most of our family loves water, but for me I find it boring so for me this was the answer. I love to mix different kinds of fruits to make what we call spa water. We do lemon and cucumber, strawberry, blueberry/strawberry, watermelon, my new favorite it lemon/orange.

I also like to make regular brewed tea stick it in the fridge and infuse my tea with fruit as well. Think Green tea and your choice of  fruit. 

It is ideal to do this a day ahead of time or at least overnight for optimum results. Don't forget to shake to infuse the water with fruity goodness. 

I was really glad to get this bottle because my last infusion water bottle was taken over by one of my daughters and this one has already been claimed if and when I get another one. This bottle had a sipper instead of a straw like my old one which I found much better so I can chug water a little faster. 

This keeps me drinking water and when I get board with a flavor I just mix up a different batch of fruit and I am good to go for a while. What we like best is that it was made in the USA, and it can be reused over and over again, which means no more buying pre-filled water bottles.

Smooth Viking Beard Oil and Beard Balm





My husband has been very lucky with all of the reviews I have been getting lately. He has had lots of new stuff to try out. This time we were able to try out Smooth Viking Beard Oil and Beard Balm. I think they have a lightly scented soap smell which is quite pleasant, but not girly.

My husband loves that the balm comes with a twist on cap so that if he hands are wet or greasy he won't have a problem opening the container. The Beard oil comes in a glass bottle with a dropper included. Again very easy to distribute the amount of oil you would like to use.

My husband loves that they both leave his face and beard much more soft then using nothing at all. I have no complaints because I love his beard too.

Nomex Oven Gloves




Being a mom over the years I have had to take over the grill when my husband has been at work, which has never been easy for me. I am bad when it comes to using sharps or anything to do with fire. I can use a gas stove fine but put me on a grill and you never know what will happen. Let's just say the first time the flames reached higher then our home I was done using he outside grill. 

These gloves have convinced my husband that I might be able to try using an outside grill again. He is thinking about actually buying one again. Nothing beats the flavor of grilled food. Our inside grill does a great job but I love the whole eating and cooking outside thing and have missed it for many years. 

I want to get a pair of these for my brother next. He loves to cook on the grill and apparently doesn't have the same fire problems I do.

Camo Trucker Hat Green





It isn't often I get to review items that my husband likes, although he does most of our tech reviews he doesn't always get something just for him. He tries out lots of items we get for male use, but he doesn't always know it will be something he will like. We knew going in that the Camo Trucker Hat was just the thing for my husband. 

As you can see below he was very excited to have a new hat. He hasn't had a new hat since I bought him one two years ago for Christmas. He is a bit picky. He likes snap back over a fitted hat  and they are harder to find. 

What really impressed him was the inside brim of the hat which you can see below towards the bottom. he says this will keep his head from breaking out in the summer as it is more padded then other hats he has owned. 

He really isn't into Camo all that much but he is looking forward to seeing more hats like this for sale in the near future.  


You can purchase the Camo Trucker Hat Green on Amazon.

Dream Essentials Sweet Dreams Sleep Mask



My body and immune system require a lot of sleep. Sleep masks really help but I have found some twist, slide, and come off during the night. With the Dream Essentials Sweet Dreams Sleep Mask I haven't had that problem. I love that it comes with a little bag and a set of earplugs. 

Although I don't wear the earplugs because I want to be able to hear my children if they need me they are great for single parents or people who have migraines. The Dream Essentials Sweet Dreams Sleep Mask is great for people like me who have migraines. It takes away all of the light that is so unbearable while having one.
