The flavor is in the bean

Since I have been doing reviews my husband has been able to try out all kinds of coffee including whole bean coffee which until I did reviews had never had in our home, or ground and brought home from the store.

It has always been ground coffee in a can. My parents preferred instant but would drink brewed coffee as well. Me I am more of a flavored coffee drinker and I like it cold rather then hot. My drink of preference is Hot chocolate.

Anyways we have been grinding our own coffee now for a few months and my husband is really enjoying the treat of super fresh coffee. He says there really is a difference in taste, which he had doubted pretty much since he started drinking coffee.

Well the truth is now being seen that the flavor really is in the bean. My husband really enjoyed the taste of the this coffee and found it relaxing and something he enjoys towards the evening rather then in the morning. All coffee drinkers have different tastes so this could be a coffee that others would find great all day long.

Doggy Wear

Yes I know these are meant for dogs but sadly they don't make them big enough for our Saint yet so we bought a medium to put on our cat Winkie. This cat wore this shirt for two days before we took it off of her.

I think she would still have it on if we didn't take it off her to be honest.

I love the bright colors, and how soft the fabric was as well as how easy this was to put on and take off of my pet. I have daughters so our animals including our Saint Bernard are always getting dressed up, usually in dresses and tiaras for tea parties, so they are very complacent when it comes to getting frilled up.


You can purchase Micha Doggy Wear here or on Amazon.



What Micha Doggy Wear has to say about their product.
We specialize in a complete line of Hawaiian themed clothing and apparel designed exclusively to show of your furry friend’s personal sense of style and character. Our clothing is fun, stylish and California-cool! 
Located in Ocean Beach, California, the land of sunshine and palm trees, Micha Doggy Wear offers a full line of doggy clothing that conveys the beach lifestyle and our company’s vision; a relaxing day hanging out with friends enjoying life. 

The inspiration for creating Micha Doggy Wear came from my dog, Micha. Our paths crossed almost five years ago while I spent a year teaching English in South Korea. I've always loved animals so when an opportunity came up to volunteer at an animal shelter, I took it. It was during that time, that I came across this spunky, little fur ball who happened to be born with a straight leg. I was surprised to learn that this beautiful little dog was born in a shelter and had lived there for two years of her life without ever being adopted. And considering what she's been through, I was amazed at how affectionate and sweet she was towards me. Let's just say that it wasn’t long before I fell in love with her and now I couldn't imagine my life without her.

Maker Studio: Gears Set

As a mother I love toys that help my children use their imagination to keep themselves occupied. I have been blessed with children with great big imaginations that like to build forts, play with boxes, blocks, ride bikes, and explore nature.

Even if you don't have children who like to do these things you can encourage them by providing lots of paper, crayons, markers, boxes, and other sorts of recyclable materials so that on the those days where they can't find anything else to do you can give them this box filled with all sorts of craft items and really let their minds grow.


With Maker Studio Gears Set you can take it one step further by helping them make their creations move. This might keep them busy for years once they start playing around with the pieces you saved for them on top of the Maker Studio Gears Set.

You can purchase The Maker Studio Gears here or on Amazon.

Catch and Release Beach Aquarium with Telescoping Net Kit

The Catch and Release Beach Aquarium could not have come at a better time. We were due for a trip to the beach and this was the first thing we packed next to the sunscreen. 

My girls tried over and over again to catch a fish but were unable to succeed.

They were however able to collect a bunch of snails.

My 7 year old was just so happy to be able to try this out at the beach and had to model the whole deal for my readers.

Here she is showing you how small her snails are and then again in the water trying to catch some more water life after her older sister got bored of trying. 

While this was made for aquatic life you can collect lightning bugs, and other flying creatures as well to watch and then release later. The girls love to catch butterflies, moths, and grasshoppers. Great for a little extra science in a fun way that kids won't even realize they are learning.

The net is telescoping which makes it really nice for both short and longer reaching. I love that the cap for the Aquarium is attached so you won't lose it while trying to catch your specimen. 

You can purchase Sharp Gear Catch and Release Beach Aquarium with Telescoping Net Kit on Amazon.
