Fazoli's Snacks Review

When I was in school, we used to pick up food on Thursday nights every week as a treat for making it through the week. We did it on Thursdays because we often spent Friday nights at my dad’s house. One of the places we would go is Fazoli’s. There was one in our town and they have breadsticks. I love Italian food a lot. I remember ordering delicious food from the drive thru. I always preferred going in and eating though because they were always walking around with the baskets of breadsticks. When you went to the drive thru you only got a couple. We would go to Fazoli’s about once a month, alternating other fast food restaurants the other weeks. It’s been a while since I have been to Fazoli’s, and boy did I miss it. I said did because now Fazoli's has their own brand of appetizers in the frozen section at Walmart called Fazoli's Snacks. There is really something for everyone.

They even have mini cheese filled breadsticks that Noah loves. I love the dipping sauce. It’s so flavorful. It’s also cheaper and better than ordering pizza every time Noah or I want breadsticks, which is a lot.   I personally love the Boneless Parmesan Chicken. It even comes with marina sauce for dipping! So if your kids aren’t sauce fans they can enjoy it too! I can’t wait for Noah to try the Six Cheese Toasted Ravioli because he is the pickiest kid in the world. He doesn’t eat meat and he doesn’t like sauce! I know I know, he’s goofy as can be. I really like that the Six Cheese Toasted Ravioli has the sauce on the side. Maybe he will try it then. I really like the Lasagna Fritta too.  I love Lasagna and this is a great way to have a bite size easy way to eat it. The crust is great too. I think that Fazoli’s Snacks are great for any get together, game night or to have for dinner. Make different varieties and have an amazing Italian buffet!

You can find Fazoli’s  Snacks in the freezer section at your Local Wal-Mart.

LOBSTERFEST is going on NOW!

Lobster is definitely one of my favorite foods. When Noah really wants something, instead of saying pretty please with a cherry on top, he says pretty please with lobster on top. Of course that is really hard to say no to because he knows me so well. One of our favorite restaurants is Red Lobster. Noah asks to go there often because he loves the Cheddar Bay Biscuits and so do I. Every year Red Lobster does LOBSTERFEST where they have different lobster dishes. It is really hard to pick just one. I wish that I could have a bottomless stomach where I could eat everything. I really have a hard time picking just one thing at Red Lobster. It is such a hard decision. We had the opportunity to visit our local Red Lobster and check out the LOBSTERFEST menu. Of course I had seen the commercials over and over again. It would instantly make me starving for lobster every time. I was really excited to get to go. So, we loaded up in the car and headed there with my mom and off we went. I was starving by the time we arrived. We ate Cheddar Bay Biscuits and Noah had three of them. He would have ate them out of them if I would have let him. 

I ordered The Lobster Lover’s Dream. It had a roasted rock lobster tail and Maine lobster tail, served with lobster-and-shrimp linguini Alfredo.  It was amazing. I wasn’t too sure about the pasta before I went honestly. Any time I had Alfredo sauce, I didn’t like it. I was wrong, I loved the pasta. I filled up on the lobster-and-shrimp linguini Alfredo. I also had a salad with oil and vinegar which was great. I ended up taking home the lobster tails because I was full after the fulfilling pasta, biscuits and the salad. I really enjoyed them the next night! 

 Noah had mac and cheese of course and orange slices. He gobbled everything down really quickly. He didn’t have any leftovers even after the biscuits, which surprised me. My mom ordered the Dueling Lobster Tails. Let me tell you, she was happy to take part of this review. The Dueling Lobster Tails are a lobster tail stuffed with crab and seafood along with another tail topped with creamy roasted-garlic shrimp. It also came with mashed potatoes and she chose green beans for her side. She loved the Dueling Lobster Tails and she kept trying to get me to try the fabulous green beans. The really cool thing was there was a party going on in the next room. We never figured out what type of party they were having but there were lots and lots of red star balloons. There must have been fifty balloons and a room full of happy party goers. We were hoping it was a surprise party, but that wasn’t the case. Our waitress was nice too.  We left very full, even with leftovers. I couldn’t stop eating.

Check out LOBSTERFEST going on now at your local Red Lobster. Go quickly because it is only for a limited time and trust me you DON’T want to miss out! It only happens once a year so if you miss it you will have to wait a whole year to enjoy LOBSTERFEST. Of course they have lots of delicious items at Red Lobster!

Apothecary Extracts 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil Review

Have you ever heard of Tea Tree Oil? It’s a great and versatile oil you can use to help in your everyday life. You can use it for so many different things. It can help fight certain skin issues and you can use it for cleaning products too. With all the harsh chemicals we are looking for alternatives that are safer for our families. I learned about Apothecary Extracts 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil which I was really excited about. I am personally trying to cut some of the chemicals out of my life after my surgery to remove my six pound tumor. I know that it probably wasn’t chemical related but it was definitely an eye opening experience for me.

Here is some information from the company:

• One of the most versatile essential oils. Naturally fight Acne, Toenail Fungus, Lice, Yeast Infections, Skin Tags, Cold Sores, Dandruff, Ringworm, Fleas, Warts, Psoriasis, and More.
• Use to make your own Shampoo, Lotion, Soap, Face Cleaner, Body Wash, and Toothpaste. Stop polluting your home and make all natural Household Cleaners, Detergents, Shower Sprays, Bathroom Disinfectants, and Kitchen Sprays.
• Every purchase comes with a FREE eBook 50+ Uses for Tea Tree Oil. We provide you with all the ways to use tea tree oil to improve your life, and replace harmful cleaners around the house. This is your's to keep even if you return the tea tree oil.
• We Have the Tests to Prove Our Tea Tree Oil's Purity and Potency. Many essential oils are diluted to cut costs. We have the Gas Chromatography Report to prove our tea tree oil is 100% undiluted, and without impurities. Find out what the Aborigines have known for centuries about this amazing gift from nature.
• Our Australian tea tree plantation has received awards for its industry-leading, conservation farming practices. They have the smallest carbon footprint of any producer of pure and natural Tea Tree Oil. The Australian Parliament has invited them to represent farming operators at a Carbon Farming Incentive forum. They were one of the first producers to be accredited under the Australian Tea Tree Industry Association Code of Practice. The nutrition program for the Tea Tree plants is based on organic fertilizers. When using pesticides (a necessity to ensure the health of the plants) they employ a shield sprayer to minimize any contact with the plant. Whenever possible natural crop protection products are used.

I had the chance to try out a bottle of Apothecary Extracts 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil. It was my first experience with Tea Tree Oil and I really like using it. It came with a free e-book with great tips and ideas. The packaging is great. It comes in a pretty dark brown glass bottle. I have used it on my skin mostly. I don’t really get much acne after having horrible skin in Jr. high. I had pimples everywhere. It was really bad, that I had to go to a dermatologist quite often. Now I just get an occasional blemish on my forehead when I am on my cycle. The Apothecary Extracts 100% Pure Australian Tea Tree Oil works really well on acne.  I want to start making my own natural cleaning products as Tea Tree Oil smells fabulous. I sometimes get a mild headache from the smell of cleaning products.  Remember that Tea Tree Oil is not to be digested. It is for topical use only.  You can buy your own exclusively on Amazon. It’s only $24.99 and you get a huge 4 ounce bottle. It’s such a high quality product and a great value. Check out the reviews. There are over 800 5 Star Reviews!
