Raisingthecandybar.com Review and Giveaway

I LOVE chocolate and have a big sweet tooth. I would eat chocolate everyday of the week if I could. When I had a chance to review some chocolate from Raisingthecandybar.com, I jumped at it!
Raisingthecandybar.com offers delicious truffles, chocolates, chocolate covered marshmallows, party platters, gluten and sugar free treats, and TOO MUCH TO NAME!!
All of it looks mouth wateringly delicious!

I was sent a chocolate covered marshmallow and a 16 piece box of truffles.




I had one truffle and a few bites of the marshmallow. They were SO GOOD! The chocolate is perfect. It is sweet, but not too sweet. The truffles were melt in your mouth scrumptious. I had to control myself to not eat the entire box! It wasn't easy. The truffles were so pretty too. Each one was hand decorated and looked almost too good to eat. But, of course I did. I am actually going to freeze a candy or two for my mother who you guessed it, is a chocoholic!!! I am sure they will be just as good and will last for weeks. That is if I don't eat them first. I recommend this product to any chocolate lover. Not only are these candies gorgeous, they taste great!!!

Opaleen.com Review

I love jewlery so much, and thanks to the Belledangles system I received a while back, my jewelry is organized! I love earrings and love to accessorize them with different outfits. It's amazing how far one pair can go with so many different pieces of clothing. I fell in love with the jewelry at Opaleen.com. They offer necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings. I would say their style is cute and very unique. They offer gold and silver as well as beads, and necklaces that have a ribbon tie as well. It took me a while to pick something out because I loved everything!
I finally settled on the Como-3-Circle-Earrings:


Stats:
Three flattened gold circles are held together by dainty links in these elegant Como earrings. Two of the circles are smooth gold while the final one is textured. Pair them with a matching necklace for a unique and cosmopolitan look. 18k gold plating. Circles measure 20 mm. Earring length 70 mm.

I love these earrings! They are so pretty, and would look great for day or night. They could be dressy or casual, and I love how versatile they are! They were smaller than I expected because the picture makes them look a lot bigger but the size is perfect. The gold color of the earrings is very glossy, and looks great. I can't wait to wear these! :)

Glasswithatwist.com Review

Summer is coming soon, and that means hot days call for lemonade and iced tea! I stumbled upon Glasswithatwist.com and saw that they sold glass pitchers! I've never had a decent glass pitcher and knew that I needed one. I contacted them and they agreed to let me review a pitcher. I picked one and had "Iced Tea" engraved on it. I think it's cute!
Glasswithatwist.com is a great website!
GlassWithaTwist.com is the web’s best source for engraved glassware.
They custom etch bar quality glass to your specifications. They allow you to personalize one of their template designs, or start from scratch and make your own! There are
no setup charges and no quantity requirements. You can get anything from a single glass to a bulk order.
They offer everything engraved from hurricane glasses, to pitchers, to pilsners, beer mugs, wine glasses, and much more! I think it's fun that you can engrave anything you want, how you want it.
Here is what I got (but this is a sample photo and not my own engraved pitcher)


The pitcher itself is of great sturdy quality, and the engravement is good too. I don't feel as though the writing will come off with 2 or 3 washes. I can't wait to make some iced tea in my new pitcher. I know I will be using it a lot this summer!

Dearfoams.com Review

I love slippers, and I wear them all the time. I have a pair that's warm for the winter, and another one that is open toed for the summer. Putting on slippers is relaxing and comforting. It's always nice to have a new pair. When I had the opportunity to review a pair of Dearfoam's, I was excited! Dearfoams is the first name that comes to mind when I think of slippers.

Who exactly is Dearfoams?
Dearfoams are cushioned slippers that deliver the ultimate in comfort. More than 60 years (and nearly one billion pairs) later, people still love the indulgent comfort, fashionable styles, and exceptional quality every pair of Dearfoams provides.

It's easy to explain why everyone loves their Dearfoams: Soft, warm fabrics and extra cushioning that make your feet feel cozy and pampered. A mix of timeless and trend right designs and colors, so you can always find a pair of women's or men's slippers that fit your personal style. And premium quality features too numerous to mention that ensure the better comfort, fit and durability (including machine washable slippers) you expect from a trusted brand like Dearfoams.

What is hard to describe - but easy to feel - is that "comfort moment" when you slip on Dearfoams. You're instantly more relaxed. Somehow more peaceful. Lost in the curl-up-your-toes, stretch-out-your-back, sink-into-the-sofa comfort that seems to put your mind and body totally at ease.

Whatever you call it, you should experience it. Indulge your feet in Dearfoams' foam-cushioned bliss. In other words, make yourself comfortable.

Dearfoams offers so many different styles to choose from, whether you want a thong slipper, open toed slipper, slipper boot, closed slipper, or even a slipper clog! They have any color you could possibly want too.

I was sent this pair to review:
(Sorry the picture is so small).

They are so comfortable! I love the color too! I rarely see black slippers sold in stores. They look good with my pajamas or even my jeans. I put them on as soon as I get in the door. And, they are machine washable.

Comfortable, cozy, and not afraid to show a little toe, these women's microfiber terry scuffs are perfect for slipping into whenever the mood strikes, which is just about always. Just slide your feet into the comfort of plush microfiber terry with authentic Dearfoams foam, a full 3/8" layer of high density poly and extra in the heel for added lift. Elastic gusset inserts offer added wiggle room and comfort. The outsoles are molded TPR with skid resistance. They're designed for the indoors, but with style that knows no bounds. Care instructions: To keep these Dearfoams women's open-toe slippers clean, gentle machine wash cold and air dry.

Like the stats say, they are true to size and fit me well! They are soft and keep my feet comfortable too. I've had dearfoams in the past and they are very durable and last for years!
