Product Review: California Kitchenware Butterfield Silicone Cupcake Molds (Set of 12)


 
Silicone cupcake liners are a the wave of the future in the cupcake world. Not so much, but they are much easier to use, clean and store than traditional paper liners and pans and that's why I was very excited to get a set of California Kitchenware Butterfield Silicone Cupcake Molds. Not only were they just as awesome as I expected them to be, but I found them to be more efficient (less sticking and more even baking) than those horrible paper wrapper that are so thin and hard to remove that when you are eating a ridiculously yummy cupcake and are struggling to remove the paper, you end up eating some of it. I mean, if you like eating paper then that's not a problem but I am just not a paperterian so cupcake with paper is a no thank you. 

I also enjoyed its versatility and the fact that I can use them for almost everything (I wish it were everything, but just things I would normally bake). 

No more wasteful cupcake wrappers!!!

Product Review: Adovia Sulfur Soap for Acne, Blackheads and Oily Skin with Dead Sea Salt - 100% Natural


 
My first like for this soap was that it had virtually no scent which is great for me since I have fragrance allergies. As far as its ability to combat acne and pimples, well I'm not so sure, since that was not a problem I had in the first place, but I also did not develop any acne, pimples, rashes, etc. as a result of using this soap. 

This soap gets a good lather without using up much of the soap so it will last a longer time. It did not overdry my skin but I would not recommend it as a moisturizing soap either. It is definitely not a bad product.

Product Review: Vacay Water Enhancer


As far as flavor goes, Vacay Water Enhancer tasted great! It had a very nice flavor for a powered lemonade drink, however, Vacay Water Enhancer claims to stand out for the rest for making you relaxed with hopefully the potential to transform you from your current state to your very own tropical island free of worries. Truthfully though, for me, it was just an okay I'm drinking lemonade moment and 10 minutes later okay I just finished drinking lemonade.
 
Although I did not experience a vacation moment, the Vacay Water Enhancer still tasted good and is a good product. It comes in a 10-serving small resalable plastic bag which is perfect to carry on-the-go and I would drink it simply because I am thirsty or to add a little flavor to my water.

TK's at the Villa Mayfair Restaurant - Coconut Grove, FL

This place threw me off a little bit. The vibe of the restaurant was very elegant, but then they had servers wearing t-shirts and jeans. So, it was a bit confusing as to what the experience was going to be.
 
 

I started off my meal with the Watermelon Salad. It was very refreshing and extremely delicious. I was pretty impressed something so simple could taste so good.
 

My friend had the Fish Sandwich as their entrée. They were not impressed since it isn't really was not impressive but still liked it.

 
My dish I didn't love so much. I've had Mussel countless times and this was the least memorable. Their bread choice was a good selection, but didn't make these mussels stand out. I like the bread more than I liked the Mussels and the they broth they were cooked in.

 
For dessert I had the Pineapple Flan. I enjoyed the flan, but wished they had used fresh pineapple instead. I basically ate the flan, but avoided the pineapple, those got left on the plate.

 
In the end, the food matched the outfits not the décor which left me a somewhat disappointed. Then the services was quite slow and inadequate. The food was not horrible but as an overall experience, I likely would never come back.
