World Food Program USA and #Pledge4moms

Image
I have been invited for the second year in a row to participate in a program that is global and charitable, and I am beside myself. This year The World Food Program recognized that since the coronvirus pandemic, there are many many homes across the world, including the United States, where hunger has become more of an issue or has made worse an already horrible issue;hunger. There are reasons of lost wages and sickness to name a few that has presented itself among the newest global issues of hunger. I took a stand to pledge for the ( #zerohungermission ) Zero Hunger Mission to help spread the word and donate to a very worthy cause. In many households it is the single mother raising children in these times of global pandemic, thus making it even harder to keep food on the table. What Motherhood Means To Me Motherhood to me means we bare children and then we raise them to be kind, happy,educated, and most of all but never last or least; fed and healthy. I am teaming up with

What is a DIY Compressed Mask & PINCH ME Group

Image
What's a Pinch Me? I belong to a group that reviews samples of products for free and once you create a profile you can begin to receive notice for products. The products can be of food,beauty,health,or lifestyle related. I'll provide my referral link at the end of the article if you'd like to sign up. Everything is free except your time. I recently received a DIY Compressed mask from the Pinch Me group, and frankly I wasn't sure what they were. I decided to share this article after doing research since I was also asked by another person if I had heard of them. Simply put a DIY Compressed mask is an individually wrapped cellulose "paper" facial mask. This mask when soaked in your favorite "facial recipe" expands. One will then very slowly peel it apart and apply it to your face for skin treatment. These facial compressed masks can be purchased individually wrapped in bags of 50 or 100 for relatively cheap; I've seen them for $3.00 up to

Skull Candy Crusher EVO Headphones Review

Skull Candy Crusher EVO Headphones Review As a Lifestyle blogger I often have opportunities to review products. Most times the products are new to the market or are very important to that particular company. Many companies approach bloggers to use and reuse a new product and then to truly review the product; this company wants to make a commitment to putting a good product on the market. Sometimes the products are offered for free or at a severely reduced cost. I have received these headphones at a much reduced price as part of a large reviewing group for a real and true review. Today I am reviewing the Skull Candy Crusher EVO Headphones. I begin with the “unboxing” of the headphones. The headphones were packed very nicely in a sturdy box to protect them against outside damage. Included in the box was a USB cord, the charging cord, a nice carrying/dust bag, direction booklet, and information on the downloadable app Tile. The QR Code was available to scan for questions,

Photo Created by MaryCaliendoPhoto2021 Happy New Year 2021! It's a new year and there are new goals to set. Every year many people will make resolutions. Many of these will go every year uncompleted because they were set way too high for the person to even obtain to begin with. So why not start 2021 with a clean slate? Restart where you left off in 2020 by making your original goal one for this year, or scrap that entirely by making a smaller goal. Resolve to be Healthy~ This might sound vauge but it is easier than saying I will train to run a full marathon. In other words, for example you want to become more organized, you don't do every single drawer in the whole house in a weekend, but you may take one drawer a day and add that to your already existing schedule. Adding in Healthy Habits Start with getting great sleep, adding in antioxidant tea, drink more water, eating cleaner and also adding in exercise. I have been researching what the best exerc

Spiced Tea Photo Credit: 123Rf.com Christmas greenery Photo Credit: MaryCaliendoPhoto2020 If you're like me sometimes you get sick and tired of the same old sugary laddened recipes, mainly made for the kids, here's an article I wrote a while back that contains the recipes to make Spiced Tea and apricot bread. They both remind me of a slower time and Christmas. Hot cocoa and hot chocolate bombs are all the current rage, and tea is the less likely choice. This, however, is a very refreshing choice and one of my grandmother's new year favorites. Tea helps us slow down a bit during the hectic chaos of the last minute Christmas rush. Apricot bread is a fulfilling tasty morning or mid-day snack. Can be eaten warmed gently in the microwave and buttered or with a topping of apricot jam or jam of your choice.. Yum. Please feel free to click on my link below to check out the entire article and recipe. It's an easy recipe for both and a highly aromatic pleasant sce
