Bugsy's Box Review

My dog Carolyn's entire world consists of treats and toys.  Nothing makes her happier than a delicious beef flavored treat, or a new squeaky toy.  She entertains herself for hours by throwing her toys around and running after them.  Carolyn is the light of my life and I want nothing more than for her to be as happy as possible.  I regularly purchase her new treats or toys to guarantee her happiness.  I feel it's important to show your pet that you care about them on a frequent basis.  Go ahead and delight your pet to a new toy today.



Bugsy's Box is a monthly subscription box for dogs.  For one low price,  treats, toys, and more will show up to your door and make your dog's tail wag like crazy.  This is a fantastic gift for dogs or puppies.  You have the option of choosing a box with contents geared towards your dogs size and weight.  Any dog will be so excited to gobble up new treats and chew on a new bone or toy.  These boxes make the ideal gift for a new dog owner, or even a pup's birthday! The best part is that you have no idea what's inside until you open it.  Your dog will love a fun surprise.

Carolyn was generously sent a Bugsy's Box which arrived today.  As soon as I received the box, I told her it was for her! She very rarely receives mail so you can understand her enthusiasm.  I had no idea what was inside, but Carolyn is very easy to please so I knew she would love it.

We opened the box together and Carolyn went nuts.  She was sniffing each item and wanted everything all at once.  She tried to run away with a bag of treats in her mouth! It's a good thing I'm faster than her.  I was happy that she seemed to love everything that was received.

Carolyn says, "Hi everyone! This is my Bugsy's Box contents.  I was sent a rubber toy, calming dog spray, chewy sticks, and two bags of assorted flavors of treats.  I want to eat an entire bag of treats at one time.  I think my mom will have no problem with that." 

She absolutely loves the rubber dog toy, it was the first item I gave to her.  It bounces high and she has no issues with playing with it.  The size of the ball is perfect for her mouth and she loves playing with it.  As it gets warmer, this toy would be perfect for throwing around outside in the park.  Carolyn loves to play fetch.  I can see her loving this time for some time to come.

I have not tried the calming spray yet.  She gets a little nutty at night when my husband and I are trying to sleep, so this would be great to try right before bed.  I'm hoping it will calm her down and relax her to sleep.  

NO.  I will not share.  Don't even ask. 


I gave her one of the chewy sticks which she practically ripped out of my hand! I regularly give her chewy sticks so she is no stranger to those.  Her love for chewy sticks on a scale of 1-10 is definitely a 900.  She happily went to town chewing away at it while wagging her tail.  It seems to me she certainly loved it. The stick wasn't too big so she didn't have any problems eating it.  

Just give me the treat already.  No more pictures.

Lastly, I gave her one of the all-natural Smart n' Tasty duck with sweet potato treats.  These contain US ingredients and over 70% duck meat.  They also have no grain, soy, or dairy either.  It's important to me  to feed Carolyn delicious treats with natural ingredients.  I want her to live a very long and healthy life and nutrition is key.  I've never seen Carolyn not eat a treat, no matter the flavor.  I do believe her veins are filled with treats, and not blood.  The size of the treat was perfect for her size and she gobbled it up instantly.  She was licking her lips afterwards so it seems like the odd pairing of duck with sweet potato was a hit with her.

I look forward to trying the other bag of treats and calming spray on Carolyn.  Bugsy's Box is a wonderful subscription box that your dog would go woofin' crazy to receive! Why not sign up today and receive lots of licks in return?

Neater Feeder Giveaway

Honestly, nothing is more annoying than a pet who is a sloppy eater and makes a big mess. My dog constantly spills water and food from her bowls onto the floor.  I seem to always be cleaning up behind her.  Wouldn't it be nice if us pet owners didn't have to worry about a messy kitchen floor any longer? The Neater Feeder hears the concerns of pet parents and wants to make your pets eating experience a revolutionary one.



Neater Feeder guarantees you no more messy floors.  This unique pet feeding system for dogs and cats allows your pet to get every last drop of water and food without making a mess on your floors.  It's time to take the mess out of meal times! The unique design of the feeder allows spilled water to drain onto a lower reservoir, while food is contained on top. You also don't have to worry about accidentally knocking over food or water bowls either.  If your cat likes to play in their water dish, you no longer have to worry about wet walls or floors, which I'm sure will allow you to breathe a sigh of relief.    Neater Feeder comes in many sizes for cats or dogs, and is offered in bronze or cranberry.  Your pet will give you a woof or meow in excitement when meal time rolls around!

Look at me, I'm beating you! I'm almost done eating. 

If your pets food bowls are worn or getting old, why not upgrade to a Neater Feeder? Your pet will certainly appreciate it.  If they are initially apprehensive about the change, just put a couple of treats in the bowl to coax them over.  They'll love the set in no time.  You can rest easy knowing that meal time no longer equals mess time.

Kohl's Review

I honestly cannot wait until winter is over.  We've had a snowstorm every week practically since the beginning of the year.  I'm sick of the slush and ice and am looking forward to seeing grass again.  Spring is certainly on the horizon and it's warming up in some areas of the country.  It will be very enjoyable to wear Spring clothes and a lighter jacket.  It's essential to welcome the new season with some additions to your wardrobe.



Kohl's is your one stop shop for women, men, and children's clothing.  Kohl's also features accessories, housewares, shoes and much more.  It's truly a shopper's paradise and my favorite store!  Need a new outfit for Easter, or maybe your daughter needs a new pair of jeans for school?  No problem,  Kohl's has you covered.  They have the latest fashions at unbeatable prices. The clothes are made well and last, and they are always having a fabulous sale.  Easter and Spring is rapidly approaching.  Do you have all of your decorations ready to display soon? Make sure to consider purchasing your bunnies and signs from Kohl's.  Don't forget serving trays and platters for your Easter meal either.  As you can see, Kohl's really does have it all.  I think I'll surf on over to Kohl's right now to see their latest offerings!

The colors of spring are traditional pastels such as pink, blue, purple, and yellow.  Since the earth comes back to life during this season, it's essential to welcome it with warm colors. Kohl's has introduced their Wink of Pink program, which offers trendy and unique clothes and accessories in Spring colors.  Why not purchase a new Spring dress or coat? You'll surely love it.

Kohl's generously let me choose some new Spring clothes for review.  I can always use new clothes, and every girl enjoys shopping so of course I loved the opportunity.

Look at me.  I'm stylish and ready to be worn with tights and a great pair of black boots.

I actually have this same Daisy Fuentes scroll print in a long-sleeved shirt.  I love the print and thought it would be fun to have it in a dress too.  The dress fits me very well and is comfortable on.  The belt helps to tie the dress together.  I do regret not purchasing it in a petite version, which I found out Kohl's carried after I bought it.  The dress is slightly long on me, while it's probably a normal length on a person who isn't 5'0.  Having a dress with an already attached belt is very nice and saves you time on trying to pair a belt with it.  I love the scroll print combined with the animal print, it's very much my taste. The colors are bold and vivid too.  Since this is a perfect dress for work, I wore it to work the other day with black tights and boots.  I got many compliments on and it and everyone wanted to know where I bought it! I told them Kohl's of course.  Once you pair this dress with gold accessories like the model has, you're good to go.  You can transform this from work to play easily too.

Everyone loves polka-dots.  Please admire my polka-dot beauty.

I've loved polka dots for years.  They are one of those classic prints that never go out of style. This Lauren Conrad top fits me well and is not form fitting which is welcomed by me.  The black is a deep rich color with bright white dots dotted all over.  I think the top would look perfect paired with either denim, black, or white skinny jeans.  For shoes, try black boots or flats.  Pair it with either gold or silver jewelry too to complete the look.  If you want a true pop of color, why not wear red earrings? Be unique and dress this top up to showcase many different looks.

Pair me with black jewelry for a stylish look. Do you love my shade of blue?

This dress is so cute.  I love the contrasting dark and light blue stripes.  It fits me very well and I like the way it looks on.  It's quality made and will last for some time.  I would pair this dress with tights and heels now, but it could be paired with flats or nice sandals in the summer when it's warmer too.  Black or silver bangles and black chandelier earrings would make this one hot look.  Dress it up or down for work or play too.

These shorts are made for fun days in the sun.

Even though it's unimaginable right now, soon enough winter will end.  You'll be able to wear shorts in late spring and it will surely be a glorious event when that time comes.  I know I'll be looking forward to it.   Shorts are such a diverse article of clothing.  You can wear them with practically any top and shoes and it will look great.  The dark denim is great and the shorts fit me well.  I don't think I'll be keeping the attached belt on.  I'm counting down the days until I can wear the shorts, but until then they will stay in my closet.

As you can see,  I was able to purchase a diverse amount of clothes for my various needs in the Spring. I'm excited to have some new pieces and can't wait to regularly wear them.  I highly suggest going to Kohl's and making your closet happy with some new additions.
