My First Daily Goodie Box!








For a long time, I wondered if I would ever get a Goodie Box. I liked learning about so many people that were getting them and seeing their excitement. The boxes were always filled with good stuff! I was happy for them, but secretly i wondered if I would get one. I wanted a Goodie Box and decided to continue trying to get one. I liked hanging out with Daily Goodie Box on Facebook, so one day I decided to comment and share my excitement. To my surprise, I got the message, "Congrats! You just got a Goodie Box!" The first thing that popped in my mind was, "WOW! Woohoo! I got a Goodie Box!" I was thrilled and started jumping up and down with joy. I couldn't wait to have my box in my hands.

The day came when it arrived, and I immediately opened it. There was a bunch of good stuff waiting for me to open: yummy snacks, a drink, slime, wipes, and more! Everything in there are of good size and quality! The box was neatly packed, but it immediately looked as if it was ransacked thanks to my excitement and not being patient to gently take each item out of the box. Sorry, everything was too good! I love the box and everything in it! Thank you Daily Goodie Box for always cheering us on and giving away so many boxes!

Anyways, here is what I got and my REVIEWS for each item:



Flathau’s Fine Foods - Cinnamon Snaps




My husband loved Flathau’s Fine Foods Cinnamon Snaps so much that he has sent me out to find some more. These are delicious and perfect with coffee, milk, or just enjoy it by itself! Have some for dessert or alone as a quick snack. This perfectly sweet treat gently crumbles in your mouth leaving you with a desire to want more, truly. They are soft with a light crisp. These cinnamon snaps are like a bite-size shortbread cookie with cinnamon sprinkled throughout, and are simply yummy!

Good Karma Dairy Free Flaxmilk




Thick and creamy with rich, nutritious flavor and great taste is how I would best describe Good Karma Dairy Free Flaxmilk. It kept me feeling full and content. It is free of soy, dairy, gluten, and nuts. One serving of flaxmilk contains 1100 mg of omega-3 and 7 grams of protein. That's pretty good for a single serving! Not only did it give me a great boost to my day, it is good for the body in so many different ways due to its main ingredient: flax. This vegan and non-gmo drink is a superfood that is good for the heart and soul, I say. It is filled with good nutrients for mom, dad, and the kiddos alike.

Prince & Spring Fruitmojis




The emoji fruit snack is so much fun to eat! Food isn't supposed to be this fun, is it? Well, I was having a blast enjoying this yummy snack while checking out every piece that came out of the bag. There are a lot of flavors in each single-serve packet. Each flavor goes with a certain emoji. The orange flavor is the fire emoji. The strawberry flavor is the heart emoji. The orange flavor is the pizza emoji. The fruit punch flavor is the yummy emoji. The apple flavor is the money emoji. The grape flavor is the poo emoji (🤔 I had to think twice on this one before trying only because...well, I mean...it's poo! 😂). My favorite flavor is the grape, but my favorite emoji is the heart. I was also impressed and happy that I could taste real fruit juice flavors and not fake sugars in each fruitmoji gummy. They didn't taste super sweet or stick to my teeth. They were a good treat that my family and I loved and enjoyed snacking on.

Real Chemistry Fresh-Start Foaming Cleanser




A gentle face cleanser that removed my makeup without irritating or drying out my skin. It left my skin feeling so soft and smooth. It has a light and pleasant scent. The actual feel of the product is like the consistency of gel. As I put a dime-sized amount of it on my fingers, I noticed how smooth it felt. It made me want to wash my hands with it, but I didn't because it is for face and it cost too much to misuse. 😁 Although this is a free sample that I received in order for me to review, I don't want to waste it. 😉 A little goes a long way! I would like to continue using this cleanser to see what results it will leave my skin with as the days go by. For now, I like that my skin feels clean and soft!

RawRev Chunky Peanut Butter Chocolate




Tastes like PB & J! It's actually really good! At first, I was unsure if I would like it because it looked and felt too soft to be a chunky bar. However, the first bite took effect and I was sold. This is a good bar! I like how it reminded me of my childhood when I would snack on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. It brought a smile to my face. I also like the chocolate chunks along with the crispy peanuts! Vegan, organic, non-gmo, and gluten free with 2 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein brings a tasty and nutritious bar to enjoy anytime!

Fourth & Heart Madagascar Vanilla Bean Ghee Butter




This gluten-free, non-gmo, dairy-free, lactose-free, and organic fair trade madagascar vanilla bean ghee butter is smooth! The pleasant-tasting butter added richness to my coffee. It can also be used for cooking and baking, except I only had one sample; therefore, I didn't have enough for baking. However, I would like to get some more of this ghee so I can bake and cook with it. Plus, I enjoyed it in my morning coffee, so I would continue using it regularly. I felt healthy adding ghee to my diet. It is good for you!

Foods Alive Himalayan Pink Salt




I love Foods Alive Himalayan pink salt! There are so many minerals that our body needs and we get with this salt! It is natural, organic, and non gmo. It tastes great! I added some to my popcorn and it tasted delicious. I like adding a little to my water every day so my body can absorb the 90 plus minerals that my body needs and this salt provides naturally. I feel good when adding this pink salt to my diet. I enjoy it in numerous ways besides in my popcorn and water: I sprinkle some on my fruit and veggies, I cook with it, I include it when making my electrolyte drink, and I use it in my bath! It is great to always have some at home.

Goodwipes - Down There Wipes For Gals




These paraben-free, alcohol-free, and hypoallergenic wipes come in handy. I feel clean after using them and appreciate that they help maintain a pH balance which keeps bacterial count on check. I like that they are biodegradable, too. The wipes are a good size and don't easily tear. They also come in a singles pack so I can put it in my bag for when I'm on the go. They are convenient to have.

Loaf Slime - Lavender Aromatherapy Dough




I didn't know slime would be therapuetic! This Loaf Slime is pretty awesome! First, it's fun. It reminds me of all the times I bought my son slime when he was little. I would just watch him enjoy it a lot! Now that I think of it, he was always happy and calm when playing with slime. Second, it smells good! It has a nice lavender aroma that you breathe in while you play with it. As I pass it from one hand to the other and my fingers are moving around, the aroma is being released and is smelling nice! And third, it is relaxing! It's is a good way to relax and be calm. Overall, I enjoyed playing with Loaf Slime!


DayClear - Allergy Relief



DayClear really cleared up my allergies, and it workes fast! It didn't smell or taste odd, either. I didn't feel any weird side effects like I do with other allergy meds. The dose is easy to take and effective.

This is my Goodie Box! It's a lot, isn't it? I loved and enjoyed everything in this box and hope to get more in the near future.

Simply Earth Peppermint Essential Oil



What a wonderful essential oil I received from a warm-hearted company, Simply Earth!

Peppermint is not only for fresh breath. It helps with headaches and bodyaches as well. It freshens, soothes, and relieves you of aches and pains. Mix a little with a carrier oil, such as almond, coconut, or jojoba oil, and rub it where you feel achy, and start feeling better soon...and smell the freshness!

Simply Earth has a big variety of essential oils that are made of the purest and highest quality possible. And if you get the essential oils subscription box, you get more than just oils, you get accessories and recipes to help you put stuff together, like making lip balm or tension relief balm or germ spray. This helps a ton especially if you are trying to go all natural.

I should be getting my April box soon (it's currently in the mail) and am ecstatic to show you everything that's inside so stay tuned!

Also, each time you make a purchase, Simply Earth donates 13% to fight human trafficking. Human trafficking happens everyday all over the world.

It is so devastating! Nobody should be put in this situation. Together we can help end this!

Review: Ocean's Halo Coconut & Chocolate Seaweed Snack


At first, I thought that chocolate and seaweed would not taste good, because it sounds like it does not mix. Honestly, I thought it was flat out weird. But I gave it a chance due to me receiving a free coupon for me to test and review. Now that I have tried Ocean's Halo Seaweed Snack, I could say that it was good. This snack is made of seaweed, chocolate, and coconut and is pretty tasty. It is salty and sweet. It is also very crispy. My family was also impressed and enjoyed snacking on this. Thanks to Social Nature for sending me a free sample.
