Johnsonville Grillers Review
Tired of the plain bland burgers? I have something for you to try. As a member of Crowdtap I was chosen to be a part of the Johnsonville Grillers campaign and was given a coupon for a box of any flavor of the product. Hubby went to our local Walmart and it was found with the other frozen hamburgers. We chose Steakhouse Onion flavor and when I tell you the flavor is intoxicating it is. There are options to cooking these, however using the grill was the way that was strongly suggested. Grilling always give things that extra ump, but since we are in need of another grill we just…

Frozen Strawberry Mint Julep | Kentucky Derby with Four Roses Bourbon
Four Roses Bourbon asked me to use my creative juices to come up with a drink in time for the Kentucky Derby. The Kentucky Derby has been one of those events that I have always wanted to attend. I was privileged to be born in Kentucky, but not raised there. My mom decided to have me near my grandmother (her mom), that lived in West Virginia and the nearest hospital was where, in Kentucky. So when her water broke and I decided to make my debut into the world, it was in the Spring month of May which is when the Kentucky Derby is held. My mommy and I stayed…

Crucible 5 in 1 Multipurpose Kitchen Tool and Giveaway
Cooking is one of my favorite things to do and as you cooks know it is important to have the right tools to do the job. There have been times that I needed a kitchen tool, but unfortunately I could not find it or I just plain did not have it. I have received a cool 5 in 1 tool by Crucible Cookware dot com which manages to be 5 things that I need most often, spoon rest (your stove will thank you), jar opener (which I usually call hubby for), pot holder (I can never get enough of these), coaster and a trivet. It comes in a pair and…

Come Celebrate Chinese New Year with Tin Drum
Daylight savings time is fast upon us and with that you know what that means? It means that it is time to prepare for Spring. The time where things come alive and with it, it is always time to experience new things. I have already started experiencing that thanks to Association of Food Bloggers. I was invited to try the new menu offerings celebrating the Chinese New Year at Tin Drum Asia Cafe. For those of you who do not know, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for some Chinese (in Taiwan, Singapore, etc.) and it is an old tradition that celebrates gods and ancestors. Tin Drum, which…

“Fashion in the City” Wild Child Magazine Style
This beautiful building near the Marietta Square hosted an event full of wonderful designers, models and press. I was out of the blue invited to “Fashion in the City” Wild Child Magazine Style, so I could not pass it up. I had a very full day, but I was decided that I had to get to the show. I have heard of this magazine, but this was the first event that I was able to cover and hopefully not the last. It was a room that housed over 80 people, not including the artists or models. Shortly after I arrived, the masters of ceremonies introduced themselves, and all of the…

Freebies, Samples and Amazon Reviews February 2016
It’s been a long time, since I brought you a Freebies, Samples and Amazon Reviews post and quite frankly with the business of everyday life I almost forgot this time. I know hubby does not like packages left in the front room and I do not blame him, but as long I leave the packages near the door I will not forget about them:). That just helps justify the need for an organized small mess, not a big one, but a small square of mess. I hope that I am not alone on this, but it is so easy once you put things up to forget about them. I am…

You got a Charger?
Just about everywhere I go there is always someone asking me or asking someone around me, ” You Got a Charger?” A lot of us use our phones for everything: calls, texts, surfing the net, playing games and taking pics/videos so it is no wonder people are asking each other for a charger. I actually almost found myself needing to ask someone about using their charger. In the heat of the moment, I was kinda working as a blogger and trying to attend and enjoy a Women’s Conference, ⇠that I had accidentally put out of my head that I had a portable charger with me. I had used one…

God is in Everything Women’s Conference
God is in Everything Women’s Conference was held January 30, 2016 at Family of God Church in Tucker Georgia and it was held here before, but this is my first one but certainly not the last. You guys missed it. A wonderful and refreshing women’s conference right here in Metro Atlanta and on top of it it was free. That’s right free!! Now we all know that does not happen often, but it was hosted by Team Ni-Shay Ministries. As soon as I walked in I noticed a couple of great vendors there selling their products of course, from black soap, oils, natural hair care products and jewelry. It was…

How to Bantu Knot
Bantu knot is a hairstyle that is one that I happen to enjoy more on other people. I found that it is a great style that looks great on even curlies that are transitioning as well as those who have no chemicals in their hair. I have tried this hairstyle one time prior and I did not like it, but this time I decided to try it on hair that had been twisted the week before and I was just wearing as a frohawk. The first time I did do it, I did it on freshly washed hair and maybe it was the combination of the product and me. Check…
