Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetner Featuring Suntella

 Lakanto Monfruit Sweetener Featuring Suntella From Tryazon

I got the wonderful chance to host another wonderful Tryazon party featuring Lakanto monkfruit sweetener and their new Suntella product. 

Now I have been one to dabble in keto and try as I might I have a hard time staying away from the sweets.  So in learning how to deal with that I have learned about sweeteners and the sweets that you can eat, in moderation, with a keto diet. 

It just so happens that monk fruit is one of those along with erythitol.  Now plain erythitol can be hard to cook with and harder to eat a lot of, so Lakanto has combined their monkfruit sweetener with erythitol making it much easier to use.  They offer a white version to replace white sugar and a golden version to replace brown sugar. They also offer a simple syrup version, and a maple syrup flavored version. 

The part I am most excited about is the Suntella.  Now I have never been that Nutella fan that makes everything about Nutella, and truth be told I don't even like it a little bit even though I love hazelnuts.  It has way too much sugar that over powers the flavors it should enhance.  

With Suntella it is Keto friendly, 2 net carbs, and a darker chocolate taste with the nuttiness of sunflower seeds.  It also spreads really easy and with a little warmth it makes a great dip for fruits (my sisters idea).  This can be very versatile and used any way that Nutella can with out all the guilt. 

While it is sweet the dark chocolate balances out the sweetness very well.  

One of the best things about this Suntella, aside from the flavor, is that if you are allergic to nuts and never had the chance to enjoy Nutella despite all the rage, now you can check out what it is all about with Suntella.  If you're diabetic you can now also enjoy a nice treat with Suntella. 

This and Lakanto's other creations are truly a blessing to a healthier life without the effects of real sugar,  so come and enjoy you some today.

Barbecue Skewers Set - LIFETIME GUARANTEE - Stainless Steel Wide BBQ Kabob Sticks - 10 Inch Flat Metal Shish Kabab with Food Remover Disc for Grilling - Brazilian Kebab Rotisserie Maker by Cave Tools

Summer time... the time when the grill comes out and the smell of barbecuing is in the air. Everything goes on to the grill, from steak, seafood, chicken, veggies and more! From every flavor of spice to every sauce, the food is great!


One of the funnest foods to barbecue is shish kabobs! Where anything goes while you mix and match. Kabobs are famous around the world.


As Wikipedia puts it: 

Kebab (also American kabob) is a term in English for several types of food. The word originated in the Middle East and is also common in other languages worldwide, with numerous spellings and variants. It has different definitions in different varieties of English, and in different cultures.

In contemporary American and British English, a kebab is a common dish, consisting of a skewer with small pieces of meat or seafood, together with vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Also known as shish kebab or sometimes shashlik, kebabs are customarily prepared in homes and restaurants, and are usually cooked on a grill or barbeque. The word kebab may also be used as a general term in English to describe any similar-looking skewered food, such as brochette, satay, souvlaki, yakitori, or numerous small chunks of any type of food served on a stick. This is different from its use in the Middle East, where shish (Turkish: şiş) is the word for skewer, while kebab comes from the Persian word for grilling.


The most common tools for skewers for the kabob is bamboo or wood, these have to be soaked in water before use so they do not burn or catch fire, and they have to be replaced each time. But you can prevent this hassle by using 10" Stainless Steel Wide BBQ Kabob Sticks by Cave Tools to place your favorite mix of food pieces on.

Cave tools offers these 10" metal skewers that are flat so that your food doesn't slide around. They are dishwasher safe and easy to use. I love the food removal ring!! This ring is placed at the top so that when your food is done you can push it down and it slides your food down without ruining it. Especially great for veggies. Beats the normal fork or finger routine. The metal on these skewers does get hot so you will need tongs, gloves, or hot pads to remove the skewers from the grill.

They are a bit flexible but strong and will hold your food well. They wash up and store easily.

I used these with a variety of veggies and steak. The food cooked well and it all come off easily. I have to say we really enjoyed it. The great thing about kabobs is that you can build them to your liking. The kids love to add what they want. We just cut up a variety of veggies, fruit, and meats and they build away with their own designs and combinations.

So if you are tired of the regular burgers and hot dogs, step it up a bit with shish kabobs skewered onto Cave Tools Metal skewers.

Colored Pencils: Artist-72 Premium Art Pencils by Flat Water Products

Colored Pencils for Any Artist-72 Premium Art Pencils-Best Smoothest Pencils for Adult Coloring Books-Coloring Pencils Great Wet or Dry-Free Tools and Accessories-Unconditional Manufacturers Guarantee by Flat Water Products

When I first learned they had come out with Adult coloring books I thought it was kind of a cray idea.  I wondered how coloring could ease stress and how could an adult really enjoy it? As I saw some of the pictures that my other friends were coloring, and of course the commercials on TV,  I liked what I saw.  These weren't just easy pictures with simple colors, these were intricate designs and vibrant colors.  I loved the look and decided to try it as I am always on the lookout for new stress relieving techniques.  

Books were simple enough to find, they were everywhere and pages were available in so many places.  So my next task was to find those vibrant colors!!   The regular coloring pencils just didn't cut it.  I wanted better, brighter, and bigger selection!  I tried some different kits but it still wasn't enough.   Until I found Flat Waters colored pencil kit.  

The one color I had a hard time finding was some true reds....this had them!  Selection was a big issue, but with 72 choices to choose from this kit had it!  Storage was another thing I needed and Flat Water provided that with their pencils, they came in their own storage bag that rolls up and keeps them safe!  

For most people some see colored pencils as, well, just that ....colored pencils.  But there is a huge difference between regular colored pencils and Premium soft core colored pencils.  Let me explain:

• These colored pencils go on really smooth, it is easy to get the whole area colored with and even color compared to regular coloring pencils. 
• 
  
• These pencils intensify vibrancy with layers.  They go on light and if you want a more intense color you simply color the spot again with the another layer and repeat until you get the deep color you want.  The more layers the more intense your color will be. 
• 
  
• They don't just stop there.  You can get just the colored look when using them dry, or you can apply water to your painting and get a watercolored blended look which gives your drawing a new level to its look.  This also helps in shading and achieving that perfect shading outward look. 
• 
  
• This kit offers even more than just the pencils and storage, It includes a quality eraser, sharpener, pencil extender, and 2 Free Blending Brushes.  All you need to make you drawing look like a real work of art. 
• 
  
• The Storage bag holds all 72 pencils and your extra items.  It is easy to carry and folds down to a small enough size that you could fit it in a larger purse.  Great for taking with you wherever you may go.  

Oh, and did I mention that it really does help stress.  It was amazing just coloring my first picture has me hooked.  I loved how I could change a black and white drawing to a vibrant colored one. I loved trying to figure out the colors to use and what colors worked next to others, or if I was going to color each small area differently or not.  You get to concentrating on the small spaces and the colors you want to use that it passes the time (perfect for those long wait times) and it helps focus your energies elsewhere.  You do have to have those perfect coloring pencils to really enjoy the art, after all , this isn't your child's art anymore this is the adult section!  You will find there is much more to coloring than just keeping in the lines! 

So want to reduce your stress?  Start with the right tools and order your coloring pencils by Flat Water Products today!

Professional Tattoo Gun and Tattoo Kit

Professional Tattoo Gun Tattoo Kit Tattoo Power Supply/ Colors Tattoo Ink Tattoo Needles Tattoo Supplies MGT-27 from Dragon Hawk

I am a fan of tattoos, I admire the art and talent that goes into them.  I myself have two tattoos.  My oldest son, Mitch, has a few tattoos and my youngest, Austin, wants a tattoo.   Mitch has learned to do tattoos and has some really good talent.  We keep bugging him by telling him that he needs to get into the business, and while he refuses, well.. we can reap the rewards with just the cost of supplies.  

As a product reviewer I often find the best way to get something you want or need is to gain it to review.  Considering I need my tats refreshed and Austin (no worries he is 19yrs!) wants one this kit came at the perfect time!  It is the perfect way to pay Mitch back for his tattoo work.  

When the tattoo kit came in we sat down with Mitch and he went through the box seeing what was in the kit and explaining what each piece does.  He was quite impressed that it had so many items.  

The first thing was putting together the two cylinders guns, this consists of putting together the needle, grip and a barrel.  Then you add this to the gun with the nipple/grommet, o rings and an elastic band.   Next connect the clip cord prongs to your needle.   We did find some glue residue on one of the cylinders, which should be able to be cleaned off. 

At this time you can hook up the foot pedal to the power box, which is usually the inside aux. The clip cord attached to your needle goes into the outer aux.   At this time you can adjust the front spring by adjusting the contact screw.  This can sometimes help adjust the vibration and then you can adjust the speed on your control box to how you are comfortable using your gun.  We did find out that if you adjusted the contact screw too much on these they won't work.  So it is trial and error on adjusting to where you like it. 

After we got the machine and guns assembled we tested it by tattooing a simple line on Austin's leg so he could get a taste of what it feels like.   Austin is funny when he is unsure of something because he freaks out, won't stop talking, and laughs uncontrollably.  But he dealt with it just fine. 

This kit comes with ink, it is not a high value ink so it may wear off considerably fast.  You will receive different shaders and liner needles, a stand for your ink cups, gloves, tips, and more.  

Since the ink is not the best Mitch decided to toss it out and we will resume tat work when I can acquire some high quality ink!   Only the best to last!

For a stater kit this is great to practice with and learn.  It will help you get the hang of putting your guns together and more.   For the cost it may be worth it to start with.

HueMax Colored Pencil Set

HueMax Colored Pencil Set - With 48 Soft Core Colored Pencils - Best Quality Art Pencils for Shading, Coloring & Drawing

Adult coloring books are all the rage!!  It takes us back to our childhood and the soothing therapy that coloring used to be.  Learning to color within the lines was a great accomplishment.  Learning the primary colors and how to mix them to make the secondary colors and so forth, was rewarding. Experimenting, with shades and coloring items unnatural colors just for the fun of it.  Then as we progressed we advanced from regular colors and mixing them to the big box of colors!!
So many colors and even more creativity!!  It was color therapy in the best way!

I remember days of laying on the floor coloring.  I think the most thing I remember is having the smaller boxes of crayons and not having that peach or skin shade to color.  So I mixed pink and yellow to get a very creative (not) skin shade.  The way kids think, but it worked for me.  I was very adamant about being in the lines and getting the right colors.  As an adult I am forcing myself to be more creative with my coloring, and the adult coloring books are perfect for that.  

I love using coloring pencils, so much easier than crayons for those tight spaces, LOL.   Huemax's 48 coloring pencil set is one of the sets I have had the pleasure of enjoying.  there are so many colors!  I have found though that they are mostly cool colors.  There aren't any warm reds, which is pretty disappointing.  

For those who are wondering, cool colors are colors that have blue shades added to them and so they fit in a certain color palette, while warmer colors have more red tones to them bringing them to the opposite side.  The same concept is used in hair coloring, you have warm colors and ash colors.  Ash are the cooler colors.  So if you have burgandy red, this is a cool color, where as copper or auburn would be a warm color.  Same applies to any color out there.  

The Huemax's coloring pencils are sharp and they do stay that way for a while, so they are quite sturdy.  They come in a box that reminds me of crayon boxes, so for me, I did place mine in a carrying case so I could lay them out so they were easier access when I changed colors.  They are a good range of colors.  They start out light on the page and so you can apply in layers and get the depth that you would like of the color.  This will also help you blend the colors out as needed, if you wish. 

This is a nice set to start with and to start enjoying your own form of color therapy!

Yellow Quartzite and Red Quartzite


Quartzite is a nonfoliated metamorphic rock composed almost entirely of quartz. It forms when a quartz-richsandstone, is altered by the heat, pressure, and chemical activity of metamorphism. These conditions recrystallize the sand grains and the silica cement that binds them together. The result is a network of interlocking quartz grains of incredible strength.

The interlocking crystalline structure of quartzite makes it a hard, tough, durable rock. It is so tough that it breaks through the quartz grains rather than breaking along the boundaries between them. This is a characteristic that separates true quartzite from sandstone.

Black Agate


Black agate is considered a receiving stones and is used for calming, soothing, inward meditation and reflection. When used for Chakra healing and balancing, Black Agate represents the element earth, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally, when using black stones at the Root Chakra, they bring us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.
