Turkish Luxury Hotel & Spa 27"x54" Bath Towel Set of 4 - 100% Genuine Turkish Cotton - Eco-Friendly






I am a picky shopper when it comes to shopping for towels. I need something that is soft and will retain it's softness throughout the life of the towel. I really do not like scratchy towels as I already exfoliated in the shower I just need a soft rub! I also like towels that are big, I am a bigger person right now, but even when I weighed less I wanted a towel that would wrap all the way around me and them some. Towels that will not shrink a lot when washed, too. (Maybe I should use cold water to wash, more often!) I love big towels for my hair too, big towel not big hair!


Have you ever fallen for the luxurious bath towels and just want to take them home (not telling if you have!). Well, now you don't have to sneak them into your suitcase, you can have your own, in your favorite colors, at home!


The Turkish Luxury Hotel & Spa Bath Towel Set offers all that I am looking for!
They are made with quality cotton / yarns.  All hems are double-stitched (not single-stitched) for extra durability. All towels are vat dyed for 8+ hours so colors (including white) will remain bright. They are made in Turkey and are softer and more durable because it is the only country which does not use any bleach in the manufacturing process, including white towels. (So if you buy the white ones do not use bleach on them and destroy the quality!)


The other great thing is the towels are made in an Oeko-Tex® and ISO 9001 mill. This means that all materials must be chemical and pesticide free and that the mill operates at the highest quality standards and is audited regularly.


The colors are beautiful and the towels are 27"x 54" which is so nice because it covers me!! They are nice, big, soft, and fluffy! The set of four is great also so you get the same dye lot with a set.


This is the first time I have had a chance to try Turkish cotton and I really have to say that it is wonderful. I do love how soft they are and I love the color (I received the salmon)!! You can even buy washcloths and hand towels to match, they also feel just as great!


So if you are looking for that perfect "hotel" towel, look no further. Just check these out and get some for you and your family!

Cocozia Chocolate Coconut Water, Organic, 16.9 Ounce (Pack of 12) 




Hydration is important for our health and for our bodies.  Sometimes though it is hard to find something that tastes good, is good for you, and hydrates you well all at once.  Water is best but flavorless, sure you can add flavor to it but wouldn't it be great to try something different, healthy, and full of flavor?  


Cocozia has just that... Chocolate Coconut Water!  Coconut water is good for hydration and carries the potassium that your body needs so your muscles do not cramp up and magnesium.  Yet, coconut is an acquired taste for most people.  There are so many brands and some add flavor but Cocozia is the one that offers chocolate, and there are not many people who do not like chocolate.  


My 20 year old son is not a coconut fan, but once he tried this chocolate coconut water he went through the box like crazy...He LOVED it!!   


This chocolate coconut water has the great nutrition from coconuts but once the chocolate is added it hides most of the coconut flavor and gives you a great semi-chocolate taste!  It is thirst quenching and tasty.  With wonderful ingredients like Organic Coconut Water, Water, Organic coconut milk ( not a lot), Organic Cane Sugar, Organic Cocoa Powder, Organic Guar Gum, and Salt you get a taste of rich chocolate in a light drink.   It is Non-GMO pending, Gluten Free, non-dairy, Kosher, and USDA Organic Certified.  Safe and healthy! 


So if you are bored with water and nothing else healthy quenches your thirst, aim for chocolate... chocolate coconut water!

Brainstream BeepEgg and Inez Rosales Torta Tryazon Party 







I recently had the fun of hosting a Tryazon party featuring Brainstream's BeepEgg and Ines Rosales Tortas.  I invited my family which consists of my mom, sister and her family and my boys, surprisingly my sisters kids and mine are all adults but still live at home, just like we like it. 

We started by putting the eggs on to boil and placing the BeepEgg in.  I explained how your beep egg should be stored with the eggs so that it is the same temperature as the eggs are to time them perfectly.   I also explained how this invention comes from Germany and a German inventor.  We discussed how it would sing at the different stages of the cooking.  Pretty awesome!  Since I was given two BeepEggs to share I gave one to my mom and one to my sis. 

While we waited for the eggs to cook we sat down to a delicious bowl of mutton stew that my sister had made and shared the Ines Rosales Tortas.  The tortas were new to us and we really enjoyed them. We had the chance to try the Sesame & Sea Salt Torta and the Seville Orange Torta.  I have to say, we ate them like crackers and our favorite was the Orange.  The Sea salt one was a little darker and just light taste of Sea Salt.  The Orange Tortas had a wonderfully sweet taste of orange and truly delicious just as they were.  

We discussed the Tortas while we ate and that they were from Spain.  We all agreed that Orange was the favorite all around.  We were mildly surprised that my Peruvian brother-in-law didn't know what a torta was, same as us.  So we all learned something.  

During this time, as we were cooking the eggs to hard boiled for deviled eggs, the BeepEgg had gone off at the soft stage playing 'Oh Susanna' it played this twice. 

Then a few minutes later at the second medium soft stage the BeepEgg played  'Take me out to the ballgame' again more than once.   Lastly 'Hail Hail the Gangs All Here'  played and we had hard boiled eggs.  We took the eggs out and cooled them off and cooled off the BeepEgg so it wouldn't play again.  

Our Family isn't much on soft or medium hard eggs, but they do love deviled eggs so after the eggs cooled down we made deviled eggs.  It was a task to peel them as they were fresh eggs, but they were really good!  The BeepEgg was great. 

The BeepEgg is a great way to track your egg progress if you want a neat timer, or if you get sidetracked when cooking like I do.  This is a ingenious and fun invention. 

We had a great night and really enjoy when we can get together for the Tryazon Parties.  They are the best!

Rhodes Microwave Cinnamon Rolls






I am not much of a breakfast eater.  I tend to wake late and then I just do not seem to find something I want.  Then there are those times where you just have to have a sweet fix.  I am always looking for something new and fast, something that is not totally bad but sweet nonetheless.  I really hate having a sweet tooth!!

Lately though I had the chance to host a Tryazon party with Rhodes Microwave Cinnamon Rolls.   Many familiar with Rhodes know how the dough to their rolls have to rise, so you set them out overnight in a fridge or for a few hours before you can cook them.  The rolls, cinnamon rolls, and orange rolls all work that way.  They are worth the wait and taste fresh, homemade, and good.  My family especially like the Orange rolls.   We were even more excited to try the Microwave Cinnamon Rolls. 

The great thing about the Rhodes Microwave Cinnamon Rolls is that they rise and cook in the microwave in just one minute.  Fast, fresh tasting, and delicious.   They are that good.  

Since we had gotten the family together, hard to do at times but we had gotten lucky, to try some of these rolls with us.  We decided to kick it up a notch and try a recipe with them:  Microwave Caramel Rolls.   



They were easy to make with only 3 ingredients and they cook in 6 minutes.  They were a hit with the family!  Sweet, sticky, and very good!  The next recipe we will be trying is Microwave Cinnamon Blueberry Crumble. 



Needless to say we are now big fans of Rhodes, thanks to Tryazon and I look forward to trying more recipes and yummy goodness!  Look for Rhodes products in your nearest grocery stores frozen section.

Johnsonville Original Recipe Fully Cooked Breakfast Sausage





Breakfast is supposed to be the most important meal of the day, but in this day and age we are always on the run and don;t always take time to eat.  We look for on the go fast items if we do eat and yet when we do this we get processed and just plain not good for us food.  

Sausage is a breakfast food that has been enjoyed for ages and yet usually it is time consuming or if you cook the fast sausage it takes like cardboard.  Not so with Johnsonville's fully cooked breakfast sausage.  

We tried the original recipe as part of my Crowtap mission and my boys and I really enjoyed it. It only takes 25-30 seconds to cook two sausages in the microwave, so we cooked 4 for a minute.  They were done just right, juicy, flavorful, and hot!  They had great taste with original spices of a great sausage.  There wasn't any over cooked parts on them, as I have experienced on some, and being links they did not taste or chew like cardboard.  

In starting this mission I was about to give up as they were very hard to find in the stores.  Walmart is a big store around here and they do not carry it.  We ended up going to a Kroger store to find these link sausages.  They were located by the deli sausages and meats in the cold case.   They only carried the original and the Turkey so we tried the Original.  We were very happy to have been able to try these and finish the mission with yummy goodness inside of our tummy's!  

The great thing is, these are great for kids to pop in and cook for a healthier meal than Poptarts, they are great for breakfast and other meals, recipes, and more.  They can be also heated in a skillet!   

So for those meat eaters out there that love their protein in the morning this is the ideal breakfast treat!

Pyle Water Pick Flosser/Tabletop Electric Oral Irrigator System, 1.43 Pound from Pyle







I remember when growing up we had what was called a water pic. It was a machine that had a plastic tube that shot water in between your teeth and to your gums to help clean your teeth and improve your hygiene.  We loved it, not only was it fun to squirt water in our mouth, it was fun to squirt it at others and make a mess!  Kids! What can you say? 

Now days dental hygiene is just as important if not more so.  There is still the method of the water pic, now called water flossers, to help in the care of your teeth.   It is hard to floss sometimes and these water flossers are a big help....and still fun!  

Pyle's water pick flosser is just what you need to improve your dental hygiene plan.  It is small and compact, but comes with three regular nozzle picks and one tongue scraper. Perfect to get a small family started.  It holds a good amount of water and has the ability to change the power of the water for each person.  The water tank has a lid with a storage compartment for your nozzles.  Even though it doesn't come with them, there are two specialty nozzles you can purchase to go with it.  

This system is easy to use and to get your kids cleaning their mouths better.  Sometimes the toys involved make all the difference with how we clean, and this is one of those.  Is it time to add a water flosser to your regime??

Electro BT Bluetooth Light Up LED Portable Rechargeable Speaker with Pulse Lighting 10 Mode Technology (Graphite) by Mindscope








Music, it is the bane of our existence!!  We listen to it everywhere we go.  Music has progressed so much through the times, not just the beats and tunes but how we listen to music.  From violas to boom boxes,  8 tracks to iphones,  woofers to bluetooth,  music has been there and done it!  

Bluetooth technology has made things so awesome that we can mulitask more than before.  Even more so bluetooth allows us to take our entertainment everywhere, and provides us a multitude of speakers to do it with.  One that has especially caught my attention is the  Electo BT bluetooth speaker. 


Electro has come out with a speaker that not only provides you a way to listen to your music but provides you lights that pulse with you music, giving you an entertainment boost.  This nifty little speaker is round and white.  You can order it with one of six different color bands to give you variety.  the speaker easily connects to bluetooth but also has an aux cord so you can hook it up to your other systems.  You can choose to do the light show or choose a specific color of light, you can also choose for there to not be a light.  The lights pulse with your music so that they can vary in the light show.  The lights show up in blue, green yellow and red.  There are buttons to allow you to pause or play the music, volume buttons, and skip buttons for forward and back.  This is a really easy speaker to use.  

The Electro speaker is not only great for parties or outdoors it is also great if you have young kids afraid of the dark.  Just turn on some light music and the lights so they can watch the light show as they fall asleep.  It is fun, soothing, quality and party time all in one!
