Redbox Instant

 

Through Bzz Agent I tried Redbox Instant Streaming.

When I first was presented with the opportunity to try Redbox Instant I was excited. I have Netflix, Hulu Plus, and Amazon Prime already, but I wanted to see what my options were on redbox.

I was sorely disappointed after signing up. Most of the movies on redbox are also available on Netflix or were just not anything I was interested in watching.  There are no tv shows available to watch.

The streaming option is very hard to to navigate and start watching. I would be logged in already, and have to click on a link that took me to the subscription page and log in again. It was frustrating not to be able to just go to the movies section and pick the movie I want to watch.

The subscription comes with four free kiosk rentals, which is kind of nice. But when I want to watch a movie, I want to watch it right then, not have to drive around to find a movie. It is nice to be able to look online for a kiosk that has the movie I am looking for and reserve it. I have before driven around the city, stopping at several different kiosks trying to find a certain movie.

It was nice to try Redbox instant, and it is still in the beta phase. But unless a lot more movie and tv options are available to watch, I will stick with Netflix and Hulu Plus.

Fage Greek Yogurt

 

I’ve become a Bzz Agent. I had the opportunity to try Fage Greek Yogurt.

I eat Greek Yogurt pretty much everyday. I like to mix a Chocolate Vita Top in it to help out the flavor. Honestly, I tried Fage a couple years ago, I got the honey flavor, and I thought it was horrible. But now I see all of the different flavors, unique combinations not found with any other yogurt, I had to try it.

So when I got the invite to try Fage, I was very excited. I got some Passion Fruit Clementine yogurt and kiwi Papaya Passion Fruit. My sister in law got the Cherry Pomegranate yogurt. We absolutely loved them!

It’s really fun to tip the flavor cup over and dump it into the yogurt. I will definitely be buying more of this in the future! I really want to try the mango Guanabana and blueberry Acai flavors!

It’s Been Awhile

 

So, the last time I blogged here, was my 26th birthday, almost 2 years ago. I’ve missed it.

I have been doing a lot of projects off of Pinterest recently and wanted to share my creations.

So to start, one thing I made were some soap pouches.

The pink one has something in it, and the purple one is empty.

The first time I saw this pin, I knew I had to make it. I was sick of my shower puff falling apart every couple of months or so. Washcloths were always way too much cloth for my small hands. Body wash can be expensive.

All you need is:

• A Washcloth
• Needle
• Thread
• Scissors

So, I first cut the washcloth in half. I folded the bottom up about 3/4 of the way, so there was a flap to tuck into the pouch. I sewed up the sides, with the side of the washcloth I wanted on the outside, on the inside.I flipped the pouch inside out and put a bar of soap inside, tucked the flap around the soap.

I used this in the shower the other night, and it was nice. Except for the cloth getting stuck to the soap  every once in a while, it was pretty nice. Just make sure to take the soap out after use and ring out all the suds and water so it can dry and doesn’t start to smell like mildew until you are ready to wash.

I’m Back

So after months away, I have returned to blog land. I think before I just got jaded and trying to do too much.

I got a new layout which I think is for fitting for my life right now. Growing up, I was pretty much a tom boy. I didn’t have anyone to teach me to put on makeup and didn’t have girlie clothes. My mom never wore make up, and only painted her nails clear. She never wore high heels or fancy shoes. My sister is 13 years older than me so by the time I would be getting into clothes and make up, she was out of the house and married. So all I’ve really ever worn is jeans and t-shirts.

The whole month of February, I filled in the corporate office at work for a lady that was on sick leave. During that time, I had to dress a little nicer, as the president of the company used to be a model, and he was all about appearances. I loved wearing nicer clothes! It made me feel so grown up. Now, I am back working at the other office, and back to wearing jeans and polos to work, as in this office it’s really not practical to wear fancy clothes.

This weekend, I found a friend from college’s blog about nail polish. Seeing her blog made me go out and buy more nail polish as a first step to changing my life. I want to become more girly, wearing make up, nail polish, nicer clothes, do my hair, and all that good stuff. So the new layout is a reflection of that change.

I’ve been telling myself for months that I was going to start blogging again and have not tons of ideas for posts, but obviously never got around it to. I kept telling myself, so next Monday, I will start again. Monday would come and go and I wouldn’t get around to it and so then felt like I had to wait til the next Monday, some reason I felt blogs had to start on Monday or at the beginning of a month. But that’s how we are as humans with everything, “I want to change X about myself, but I can’t start until the New Year.” Or until after the holidays or until after X happens. We all use these type excuses, but nothing can change until we make it, I know it’s cliché but there’s no time like the present and you gotta start some where. This is my start.

I hope to be able to share more of my transformations with you all through the coming months. I also hope to do and show off more crafting and cooking.
