Avocado Tuna Salad Recipe

July 28, 2020 by Stefani Tolson 16 Comments

This year I have been trying to switch up my meals a little bit! I normally use chicken for a majority of our meals but instead of making chicken salad, it can be easy to make a tuna salad that the whole family loves! Sometimes the key to getting your family to like things is having them try it before you tell them everything that it’s made with! I recently tried making Avocado Tuna Salad with some of the Tonnino Tuna Fillets for a recipe contest that I am entering!

With Tonnino you get a variety of choices when it comes to their tuna fillets. Tonnino is a brand of Costa Rican gourmet yellowfin tuna products that are packed by hand in glass jars to offer consumers a great look and feel. …

Keep Your Face Covered With Hoo-rag

July 16, 2020 by Stefani Tolson 4 Comments

This year is probably one of my least favorite years I can remember and we are only halfway through it. Covid-19 is scary and the world doesn’t seem to be getting any better. My family needs me so I always make sure that I have a face mask in my car or in my purse. I can’t say that I like wearing a mask but right now it is necessary. I live in California where there is now a mandate to wear a face mask when leaving your home. I have masks that I made at home but I also have some tubular face bandanas from Hoo-rag that are also handy with keeping my face covered.

A Hoo-rag is not just a way to cover the face. There is a variety of ways that you can wear them as well as a variety of designs to choose from. They actually have over 250 designs that you can choose from. You can even visit the site to make your own custom bandanas if you want to! …

6 Ways To Avoid Puppy Panic While Out And About

July 15, 2020 by Stefani Tolson Leave a Comment

If you’ve got a particularly anxious pup, you probably know how much of a headache it can be taking them someplace new. Car rides, vacations, or maybe just being out in public: anything that breaks their routine can set off a chorus of whines and barks.

A stressed dog means more stress for you, and nobody likes the feeling of stressing out your pet in the first place. An anxious dog is more likely to bark, growl, or in the worst case snap at something, making keeping your dog calm a crucial skill for any owner. Here are a few tips for keeping your dog calm whenever they’re in a new place….

PureHeals Centella 90 Ampoule Review

July 5, 2020 by Stefani Tolson Leave a Comment

I use multiple skincare products on my face everyday. First I use toner, then I use a serum. Sometimes I use an essence in between those two steps too! When it comes to serums I like to rotate using the ones that I have. I recently added the PurHeals Centella 90 Ampoule to my serum routine that I received in one of my BoxyCharm boxes I wanted to share.

What I like about this product is how it makes my skin feel once I put it on. Some serums make your face feel sticky or tacky. Just a little bit goes a long way. I am not too much of a fan of the scent as it has an herbal scent which is okay but I love how thin it is and easy to apply. Since I use a moisturizer next, I like using serums that thick. I haven’t tried this but I also heard that some people buy this to help with acne scars so it sounds like a product that can be used for multiple things on your face.

Here is the description from Boxyharm:

A soothing serum containing 90% of centella asiatica extract. Relieves irritations of sensitive skin and strengthens the skin barrier. This serum contains Ceramide-3 which helps strengthen damaged skin’s moisture barrier and keeps the skin clear from the external environment.

The Adventures Of Rockford T. Honeypot Review, 5 Recipes & More #RockfordTHoneypot

July 3, 2020 by Stefani Tolson Leave a Comment

I have always been a fan of reading fantasy type books for as long as I remember. When I was a kid, I would read a book in a weekend or sometimes in a day. I will admit that I haven’t been reading as much as I want to lately, but couldn’t pass up the opportunity to read something to take my mind away from everything going on in the world right now. Sometimes a good book is all you need to give yourself a little getaway. I recently received a copy of The Adventures Of Rockford T. Honeypot by Josh Gottsegan which is a book includes some fantasy, some humor and life lessons all in one story.

About the book:

As a young chipmunk, shy, bookish Rockford T. Honeypot had dreams of thrilling adventures across the forest. However, timid of danger and germs, his only adventures were found in books and his imagination. When his family abandons him after a mistake that destroys their hazelnut business, Rockford sets off on a legendary journey beyond his wildest dreams. From exploring cuisines with a famous chef, training with ancient warrior monks, flying on giant hawks, finding true love, and much more, Rockford recounts his epic origin story of hardship, perseverance, and fortune.

About the author:

Los Angeles native Josh Gottsegen has a background in filmmaking and digital media and is the author of “Joosh’s Juice Bar,” an early elementary school children’s book series that encourages healthy eating habits through vivid illustrations and Dr. Seussian-style rhymes. Earning his BA in Film Studies at the University of California Santa Barbara, Gottsegen has won numerous awards for his short films and video productions. Starting professionally at NBCUniversal Interactive, later Josh Gottsegen moved into editing as well as other creative projects for the Walt Disney Company, Fox Corporation, IMG, and the NFL.

The Adventures Of Rockford T. Honeypot is perfect for those ages 8-12 but definitely a FUN read for us adults too! My kids were pretty much done with doing any reading when school ended last month but I have definitely got their interest on what I have been reading recently. I am hoping that one of them will be reading this book next.

You can make reading fun by having some snacks or foods to eat while reading. Below find some Rockford T. Honeypot themed recipes that are perfect to enjoy while reading about his adventures.
