I had the opportunity to review the Grand Italian Gourmet Gift Basket. It shipped so fast which was great. I was so impressed when I opened the box. I said wow. The basket was beautiful. The basket’s design was in it’s self a work of art. It was so impressive. I almost didn’t want to open it because it was so perfect looking. Even my son commented on how beautiful the basket was. I imagined how impressed someone would be when they were surprised with such a grand gift basket.

I opened the basket and I started marveling at all my goodies inside. There were two types of pasta, salmon, olive oil in an “oil can”, pasta sauce and so much more. Everything you would need for a traditional Italian dinner. There was even cake and cookies for dessert. It all looked so delicious. There were some decorations in the basket too. The fake grapes were immediately taken by my son to play with. He would talk about the grapes. It was really cute. I also wanted to mention that the basket itself is a nice strong basket. It is not one of those cheap flimsy ones that break easily. Just think of all the things you can do with your basket when it is empty.

We have been enjoying our goodies from our Grand Italian Gourmet Gift Basket. There is so much in the basket. Everything we have tried so far is delicious. The cookies are so good. As everyone knows my son is a cookie monster. It didn’t take long until he started asking me for a cookie. We are going to have a spaghetti dinner with the pasta and sauce soon. I can’t wait. I will definitely make my top secret homemade garlic bread to go with it. Did I mention how much I love garlic? It is my favorite.

I feel very lucky to receive of such a wonderful, delicious and gorgeous gift basket. Thank you so much to Bea’s Gift Baskets & Gifts for sending me such a great gift basket for my review.

Happy 100th post to me!

This is my 100th blog post. I have come a long way so far. I know I have a lot to learn still. I would like to thank my readers especially the ones that have been reading since the beginning.I would also like to thank all my blogging friends for their continued support. There are so many of them. It would be hard to name them all. I have a lot of really cool things coming up in the future. I hope you continue to read my blog. I am really looking forward to many years to come.

To celebrate I am going to eat a Christmas tree cake. I thought about making cupcakes with Noah earlier but he wasn't in a good mood. He is better now. We laid in my bed together with pillows and my blanket and watched Dora before bed. I let him stay up and watch it tonight. I have a feeling that is going to become an every day occurrence which is fine with me. It is so fun to snuggle up with my little boy.

Happy 100th blog post to me and Many Many MORE to come!

Sweetly You Review and Giveaway!

Photobucket

I love good smelling lotions, body washes, and other toiletries. I could probably open my own store. I have so many of them. I like to change them up and use different things on different days so I like to have a wide variety of scents. I am a firm believer that good smelling lotion can make you feel better.

I had the opportunity to review three items from Sweetly You. Sweetly You is an online store that sells bath and beauty products. They have 50 scents and many different bath and beauty items such as lotions, bath salts and scrubs. They also sell Jelly Bellys. Sweetly You has 18 items for under ten dollars. There are even a few gift sets that would be a great gift for anyone who is in need of some pampering. Everything is a great price. You should definitely check out the specials and the low flat rate shipping. If you have family in other countries like I do Sweetly You ships world wide too! The holidays are coming up and it would be a nice little treat for a loved one.

I reviewed three items from Sweetly You. The first item was Coconut Lime Verbena Shea & Coco butter cream. The cream was wonderful. It is so thick and it smells wonderful. I really feel moisturized after using it. The scent is great. It is the perfect blend of coconut and lime.

The second item I tried was the Essential Sugar Scrub in Cotton Blossom. I had never used a sugar scrub before so it was interesting and different. I didn’t know what I was missing before I tried it. All of my dead dry skin was washed away and I was left with smooth pretty skin.

The third item I tried was my favorite. It was Foaming Bath Butter in Royal Pear. It works wonderfully with the Essential Sugar Scrub. The Foaming Bath Butter was luxurious and not like the body washes I was used to. It was really a treat to use. I loved the scent of pear. I don’t know what it is about the scent of pear that is just so great. But Wow I felt like I had spent the day in the spa after using these products. You should check them out and let them pamper you and make you feel relaxed and beautiful.

Thank You to Sweetly You for providing me with three complimentary samples to try for my review and providing the giveaway products too.

One of my lucky readers will win the Pomegranate Body Lotion Combination set which has a 4 ounce bottle of Sweetly You’s signature scent Pomegranate and a bag of Pomegranate Jelly Belly jelly beans.
