Palmolive Fresh Infusions Dish Soap

I recently received a box of three dish soaps from Influenster.The fragrances in the box were, Ginger White Tea, Lemon thyme, and Lime Basil.

Palmolive Fresh Infusions was designed with elegant simplicity and the freshest scents in mind. The clean you've always trusted from Palmolive blends with naturally inspired fragrance for the freshest kitchen around!

Thoughts: At first I was a little hesitant to try these out because when I saw "PALMOLIVE". My first thought was oh no, not the dish soap I am allergic too. I have a very high sensitivity to smells  so if it's too strong; I will sneeze, watery eyes, the whole nine. Original Palmolive does that too me, as soon as I start washing dishes I sneeze until I stop. I'm currently using Lemon Thyme fragrance. This dish soap gets the job done, and a little bit goes quite a long way. It cuts through grease well, and works will with dried on food. I cant really say there is anything special, because it doesn't work any worse or any better than my regular $0.99 Ajax. The major plus with these is the smell. The smell isn't as overwhelming as "original palmolive". It's light and does not irritate me nose at all. It actually reminds me of "Sunlight", which is what I grew up with in Canada. I'm looking forward to trying the Ginger White Tea, because it smells the best. Perhaps it would work better, which I doubt because I assume the formula is identical apart from the fragrance.

To be quite truthful I can't see myself buying this in the future, because I can not justify spending $3 on dish washing liquid, when a 99 cent product gets the job done just as great if not a little better.

Faux Kolacky!!!

The other day people were coming over and I had to scramble because there was nothing to serve with chai (tea). So I went to Walmart and picked up "Raspberry Kolackys". They were pretty, cheap and looked like they would go well with chai. One guest made a comment, these are so delicious, how did you make them, I want to know. I was kind of embarrassed and said.."WALMART".

Those Kolackys were still on my mind days later. Looking in my freezer I found some puff pastry sheets and I already had jam, then I thought why not.

Here are the results of a lingering dessert stuck in my mind for way too long.

Strawberry Jam and Marmalade- Stored in the recycled store bought container.
Icing makes all things pretty.

These turned out quite lovely and almost reminded me of a danish. Very tasty. One day I will make the real deal from scratch.

Influenster Cosmo VoxBox

Today in the mail I received my Influenster Cosmo VoxBox , which was a total surprise because I forgot I had even signed up on the site, Out of everything in the box, I am most exited about the pens. I happen to LOVE stationary, so this is a great addition to my collection.



I am excited about these, a little doubtful because they remind of  those old papermate erasable pens which don't write well nor erase. Hopefully they'll give me a fresh outlook on erasable pens.
I love Venus razors, I currently use one now.

This will be given to the closest person in my reach.. Nut allergies prevent me from eating:(
I am not a perfume girl, but it smells really nice.
