Kasandrinos International - High Quality Olive Oil

Kasandrinos International proudly offers a single source organic extra virgin olive oil and other high quality food and skin care products. Kasandrinos International only offers this year's harvest of olive oil. 

 

I received a bottle of their extra virgin olive oil and find it is a very good product.  I like to use olive on mostly for making pizza as I think it really improves the taste.  I put it on the cookie sheet prior to pressing the dough out.  I also had a tiny bit to my pizza sauce that I make out of tomato paste and some seasonings.

This came in a tall glass bottle and is an organic product.  I highly recommend.

Scrape-A-Round Review

I received three different sizes of the "Scrap-A-Round" product. I have not had any frost on my car yet this year so have not been able to test these out yet. I like how secure they feel in your hand and think they will work well. I don't think the size makes a difference so plan on putting on in each family members cars to have on hand for when needed.




 

I will update this after our first frost so I can let everyone know how well they work. :)

Christmas Coloring Book: Magical Winter Holidays

This is a fun holiday coloring book.  I really like the designs in this. There are 30 fun designs plus 10 more that are mandala style pictures. 

The paper is of average thickness.  Using gel pens, some have leaked thru.  The paper is non-perforated.

I apologize for the shadowing at the base of my pictures.  Unsure how that happened.

Best Choice Products 10-Motor Vibration Shiatsu Massage Mat Cushion With Heat

I own several massagers similar to this one and must say this is my favorite of them.  There are no rollers in this but the vibrations it produces is very intense and it breaks up all the tension in your muscles nicely.  After using, I feel like I need a nap!

As you can see by the picture, it is much longer then other massagers out there.  This one actually massages your calf muscles too!  The sides of my couch can recline so I like to recline back while using it and find that position very comfortable.

The remote is easy to use.  There are 5 cycles to choose from.  I like to let the cycles run thru all 5 in order.  You can also choose to have it focus on just one area of the body at a time by pressing the botton next to the person on the remote.

There is a timer set to 15 minutes and it will shut off at that point.
A nice feature is it has the option for heat!
You are also able to set the intensity of the vibrations to low, medium, or high.

When not using it, you can just fold it into a square and slide under your bed, place in your closet, or just place it behind your couch for easy access like I have been doing.

This plugs into the wall with a 6 foot cord.

Monarch II 30” Swivel Bar Stool with Bronze Metal Finish

This is a really good nice bar stool. It has a great look to it. I love how it swivels 360 degrees! It's very comfortable to sit on and the lower metal bar is great for resting your feet on. 

My teenage son put this together for me and it took him about 30 minutes or so.  He is currently taking a shop class in high school and learning how to weld.  As he was putting it together he commented about how well the welds were on this.

It has some weight to it.  This is a good, quality stool.

Best Choice Products 48" Kids Snow Sled Toboggan Outdoor W/ Rope

These sleds look pretty durable.  Since we have not gotten snow yet this year I have not gotten to try it them out yet.
The recommended age is for 3 to 15 years old, however with a weight limit of 275 pounds I don't see why this wouldn't be appropriate for adults as well.  I plan to use it with my kids this winter.

A rope is attached so you can easily pull it back up the hill.

It is available in 3 colors:  red, blue, or pink.  I have both the red and blue colors.  Both colors are bright.

Dimension: 47.5”(L) x 18”(W) x 5.5”(H)

Best Choice Products 50ft LED Rope Light

Today I will be reviewing Best Choice Products LED Rope Light.  

I'm very impressed with these lights.  The clear rope is 50 foot in length and they are quite bright.

They are waterproof and good for indoor or outdoor use.  The rope is made of PVC tubing and it is flexible which makes it easy to work with when hanging it up.  It comes rolled on a plastic holder so it's easy to put away for storage when not in use.

They feel durable and I'm getting lots of compliments.  I currently have them going around my hot tub enclosure.

Today I am reviewing the Best Choice Products Kids Electric Guitar Play Set W/ MP3 Player, Microphone, and Amp.


 I think this is a cute set and would make a great Christmas gift. The age recommendation is for ages 6 and up. It would be good for girls or boys.

 I was playing with it by myself and thought it was pretty cool. The microphone really works and can be held in your hand or placed on the adjustable microphone stand.

It requires 4 AA batteries to work and they were not included.

Best Choice Products Kids Classic Battery Operated Train Set with Real Smoke, Music & Lights

This train set is cute for kids.  It's a nice size and would look great under your Christmas tree.

It needs 4 AA batteries to work and they are not included.

The train tracks are very easy to put together.  My son decided to set it up on top of our hot tub cover outside as we were having such great weather.

As you can see, he made the tracks in a circle shape but with those extra pieces you see in the center you could have this in an oval shape.

With one switch to turn this on with, the locomotive makes train sounds, blows smoke, and lights up.

The pieces are made of durable plastic and is easy for kids to set up and play with.

Monarch II 30" Swivel Bar Stool With Elegant Wood Accent, Old Steel Finish

This is a really good quality bar stool. It has a great look to it. I love how it swivels! It's very comfortable to sit on. 

I like to rest my feet on the lower metal bar while sitting on it. 

The only thing that I wasn't fond of was having to put it together. It was a bit confusing and took me about an hour. 

Measurements are:  W 16.5" / D 22" / H 44"

                                               Weight is:  24.5 pounds

Gel Pens 48 Color Premium Professional Gel Color Pens

The set includes 48 gel pens. It includes:
• 12 Glitter ink
• 12 Neon ink
• 12 Metallic ink
• 12 Pastel ink (these are marked as "wet chalk")

They come in a plastic case that is pretty nice to store them in. Each pen snaps into its spot and stays in place nicely. This is a nice case and it actually snaps shut on 3 of the 4 sides so its definitely secure. The case measures 22" in length when opened.

There are no duplicates of colors. The colors are vibrant. There is a lot of sparkle in the glitter and metallic colors. The pens glide smoothly while using them. I have not had any leak. The tips are fine (0.8 - 1.00mm) and produce just the right amount of ink as your using them.

There's a pretty gem on the end of every cap showing what color it is. In the glitter and neon ones you can see the ink levels however, in the metallic and pastel ones you cannot.

I think it's a great set and I like it a lot. I own quite a few different brands of gel pens and these are one of my favorites now. I noticed they are a tiny bit smaller in circumference then the average gel pen size but you adapt quickly and its just fine. I am using them in adult coloring books.

The colors included are:

Black
Olive
Clay Yellow
Light Brown
Medium Brown
Dark Brown
Dark Blue
Ocean Blue
Light Blue
Dark Green
Emerald Green
Yellow Green
Light Yellow
Ivory
Golden Yellow

Blue Violet

The colors are very nice and blend really well. They color smoothly and have good pigment. I like how the top end of the pencils are colored so you can easily tell what color each one is.

These pencils came in a nice tin. The lid opens and shuts easily. There is a hinge on the top so the lid can never come off completely. There is a plastic tray inside to hold the pencils in place. I really like this tin holder! There is a piece of thin foam inside on top of the pencils. This was a great idea for shipping so they wouldn't get broke in shipping.

They all came presharpened. I have sharpened a few since using them and they sharpen well. The pencils are not round. They have 6 sides to them. Being made this way is nice because they won't roll around when you lay them down and I like the feel of them in my hand with this shape. I am enjoying using them in adult coloring books.

On the front of the case it shows a paint brush, but one was not included.

I like how the company offers a money back guarantee.

CreooGo Canvas Pencil Wrap, Pencils Roll Pouch Case Hold For 72 Colored Pencils

I received this pencil holder in the UK print and it holds 72 pencils. The UK print is very colorful and pretty. It came with 3 pairs of beads in different patterns so you could pick which you like best and add to the strings for decoration.

I am very impressed with it in all ways. It is very well made with a durable material. All the pencil slots are uniform in size and hold the pencils securely. All the stitching is perfect. I don't see any loose ends or skipped stitches. I love handmade items because they usually are better made then a factory manufactured item.

There is a larger slot to hold larger items on each side of it. I like how there is a flap on the bottom to protect the pencil points. It rolls up nicely and is easy to tie shut. I like being able to keep my pencils in this so I can keep them all in a certain order going by their shades. When I keep them in the box they came in its harder to do that. This roll is great!

Please note: I put my pencils in this for the pictures to show you how it would look. Pencils were not included with this.
