Review: Midnight Raven by Becca Boucher


Book Blurb

Kat Brennan was a loner. Trust no one, and don’t let anyone in, was the mantra she lived her life by. The few times she had, it ended badly. Now alone and bitter she’s facing the consequences of her actions. Until one night a chance encounter with a raven sets into motion a range of events, and desires, she thought she had buried long ago. 

Cace Matthews was a successful doctor to the outside world. He seemingly had it all, good looks, a fast paced career, and a prestigious new job. But no one knew the real Cace. The shifter who searched for the truth, the end to the curse that had been placed on his family. 

When the two cross paths it leads to discovery and passion. 

Can Kat accept her true lineage and the magic that surrounds her? More importantly, can she let go of decades old resentments and let herself find true love? Can Cace bridge the gap between family commitments, and the desire to be himself, all while navigating his true feelings for Kat? And will they both live to see midnight? 

Adult themes and content 18+

My Review
I felt sorry for Kat right away. You can just tell when someone is depressed and on the edge and that's the way she felt to me. Kat seems to have shut her self off from others and isn't looking for a relationship but that doesn't stop Cace from trying after they meet. 

After meeting Cace and finding out he's a shifter and that she has a special gift, she also finds out they are in danger. Cace is a wonderful character. He's a raven shifter and I totally loved that he is able to fly and we get a sense of what it's like to fly through him. Case and his sister are looking into the death of their grandfather, so there's also that mystery story line going on as well. 

With everything that happens and all the different things going on, this story should have felt bogged down with too many things happening at once but the author did a wonderful job of keeping everything flowing and keeping me engaged. 

I have to say that I'm still reeling from the ending of this book. I never saw that coming. There's a twist in this story that totally changes everything and everyone involved and I was completely shocked when it happened. 

While this is book 2 in the Moon series, you can read this as a stand alone book with no problem at all. If you like fairies, shifters, paranormal beings and family curses then you'd probably like this book. 

If you'd like to buy this book you can find it here

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Review: Stylus Pen by Jiggy Brands


Product Description
Stylus grip pen with twist-action mechanism.
Black ink with medium point.
5 3/8" W x 1/2" H x 3/8" diameter.
Ink Color/Point Style: Black ink with medium point
Available In Black, Blue, Green, Purple, Red

My Review
I really like the stylus end of this, my husband and I tried it out on our Kindle Fire right away and it works well for us to tap the keys and be able to tap just the one key we are going after. That is the entire reason I wanted a stylus in the first place. My fingers kept hitting extra keys and so did my husband so we needed something like this. The pen side works really well but there doesn't seem to be a lot of ink in it so I have a feeling it would run out if we kept using it. Since all we really wanted was the stylus part, this works well for us.

It ha a nice rubber end for clicking on things on a touch pad, phone, Kindle ect. 

It also has a pen on the other end in case you need to write something on a piece of paper. 

I'm happy with it because I was able to get a 99% off coupon code it from No Kidding Coupons so I only paid .15 for it when the Amazon price at the time was $14.97

If you'd like to purchase this Stylus pen you can do so here

Review: Grill Brush by Inspired Grill Instruments


Product Description
16-inch long handle means no burning from hot grill whilst cleaning. A non slippery, non slick handle allowing for easy grip even when you have greasy hands. Great value brush on Amazon!
Firmly interwoven, extremely flexible bristles allowing brush to reach every crevice on your grill with little effort or force required from you.
Only requires water to clean no heavy scrubbing or soaking the brush for ages to keep clean and therefore no fuss. Simply rinse the brush under a tap to clean for the next use.

My Review
During the summer months we like to grill food on the bbq and my old grill brush was just about done for, we needed a new one. So when I was given the chance to get this one for a deep discount from Elite Deals Club, I jumped at the chance and bought it.

I used to bring the grill in the apartment and clean off all the metal parts that my meat was going to be touching because I don't want old food and ash getting on the meat that I'm cooking. Hubby thought that was weird, that I should just take a grill brush and knock off most of it because with the high heat that a bbq uses anything left gets turned to ash and won't hurt you to eat. But I still like to scrub the grill before I add new meat to it. So I love this brush. It's got a long handle so I can have the fire going and clean the grill and not worry about my hands and arms getting burned. This is exactly what I've been wanting. 

If' you'd like to purchase this grill brush you can do so here

Recipe: Mary's Potato Salad

I make my potato salad a little different than other people do because I like a lot of pickle in it. Ken told me it should be called pickle salad. 


First thing you do is boil 5 lbs of red potatoes until they are soft but not too soft. You want them to stand up to being mixed with the other ingredients. Once boiled, put in cool water for 3-4 minutes and then drain. If you leave them in the water too long they will get mushy. Put the potatoes in the fridge for 2 hours until cool. 

Once completely cooled, take then out and cut into large chunks. Bigger chunks stand up better to being mixed. I cut each potato into 4 or 6 pieces. 


Slice one can of whole black olives and set aside. 

Dice 2 Claussen Kosher Dill pickles and set aside. 

Pour out 1/2 cup of pickle juice from the pickle jar into measuring cup ad set aside. 

You will also need 1/2 cup of mayonnaise. 

Add all of the ingredients to a large pot and mix using a large plastic spoon. 

Of course you can leave out the pickle juice if you don't like it with that much pickle but that's one of the things that I really like bout this recipe. 

Do you have a favorite potato salad recipe?

Cute Animal Pictures

So today I thought I would share pictures of my animals. This is Falcor and me playing with one of his rope toys. This silly dog has a lot of energy and has taken to bringing us one of his toys and dropping it in our laps when he wants to play..which is all the time. 

Flower is my hairless rat. She and Scribbles are both 2 years old and she still has so much energy. She is really funny to watch run and jump all over the couch. She just had her weekly ratty massage with a little extra virgin olive oil to keep her skin from drying out. I have to get the oil all over my hands and then grab her and quickly and gently rub my hands on her because she doesn't want to sit still long enough for me to do it. I think it's fun for both of us. 

Scribbles is my 2 year old male rat and he's been a little under the weather lately. Last month he had an abscess on his nose and this month he has a small one on his shoulder. Thankfully they aren't getting too big and I can either lance them or let them drain and go away on their own. He's slowing down a little and showing his age but still comes running over to the front of the cage each morning when I clean the potty corner. He knows he'll get a treat a some mommy time. He used to want to come out and get held or play but now he just lays down and wants to be petted for a while. When he's done he'll turn his back to me and go back in his house. He comes out of his house several times a day and stares at me until I give him a treat or a petting. I know he wants a treat because he'll start sniffing all over my hands and push me away if I pet him. But if he wants to be petted he'll lay down and close his eyes once I start petting him. Yep, he has me trained well.

My Review
With all the news reports of people being able to hack, copy or take control of your credit cards and ATM cards, it's nice to see products on the market like this one that will prevent a would be thief from getting your info from the cards you happen to be carrying with you.

This stainless steel credit card holder is small, sleek and made really well. It's small enough to go in a pocket, purse, bag or where ever you need it to go. 

It has enough space to comfortably fit 6 cards into it while closing and staying closed. I think this would make an excellent gift or stocking stuffer. As far as the RFID blocking capabilities, I have not had the chance to test this out as I don't work at a place that could try to scan this or know anyone who had that capability. But after reading other reviews on Amazon where I purchased this, I read others have said it works really well in that regard. In any case I think this would work for someone who is worried about that sort of thing.

Cover Reveal- Smoking Gunn by Amelia James



Smoking Gunn – A Trashy Quickie

Max Gunn lives a trouble-making, hell raising, rock star life—no good for any woman—and he’s okay with that. He’s been in love before, but never for long, until stripper goddess Blaze grabs ahold of his wayward heart, and he can’t shake it off. Can he do something crazy and have more than a fling with her? Or has he done too much damage already?

Coming May 25, 2015!

Cover designed by Mallory Rock http://www.malloryrock.com/ 

Excerpt:

“Do I need to spank this guy?” The door swung open and Destiny poked her head in. 

I pressed my lips together and waited for Blaze to speak. One wrong word from her and I’d be out on my ass. 

Blaze pasted a smile on her lips. “We’re just talking, Des. Thanks.” 

Destiny nodded but she stood in the doorway and kept a wary eye on me. 

My presence anywhere caused a stir, but I’d never cost anyone money before. “I’m sorry, baby. I had no idea.”

“I’m sure you didn’t.”

My stomach tied itself in knots knowing that I’d caused her pain already. I never wanted to hurt anyone—especially her—but I always managed to do it somehow. “How can I make it up to you?” Turn around and walk out now. 

“Leave.”

At least we agreed on something. But the growing urge in my pants refused to leave unsatisfied. “I could, but you still owe me a lap dance.”

“You’re not getting a lap dance.”

“All right, fuck me instead.” 

Destiny giggled and Blaze rolled her eyes at the woman. Then she turned on me with fire in her eyes and a dangerous smile on her lips. “Do you know who I am?”

“Uh....”

“I’m Blaze. I’m so hot my ex-husband named this club for me, and the judge said I could keep it when he left. I’m the most wanted woman in this whole damn city. I could fuck any guy I want—”
“Any girl too.” Destiny coughed and flashed an innocent smile.

“That’s right.” Blaze lifted her foot and placed her six-inch heel on the bench. “Why should I let you have my in-demand pussy?”

That’s when I understood why my rock star status got me laid. “Because you are every man’s fantasy, and I’d be a fool to let this opportunity slip away from me.”

Blaze cocked her head toward Destiny. “Are you buying this?”

“I’d sample his goods.” Her sexy brown eyes focused on my crotch. “Nice package.”

Blaze looked too. “Can’t argue with that.” A tiny spark escaped her eyes before the indifferent mask fell into place. “If she says it’s okay, it’s okay with me.”

Destiny glanced past me with a raised eyebrow, and from the corner of my eye, I caught Blaze giving her a hand signal. Destiny smiled. “I’ll guard the door.”

Blaze gasped, trying to appear surprised. Her acting needed serious direction. 

“Thanks, baby.” I winked and Destiny blew me a kiss. When the door clicked shut behind me, I turned to Blaze and stalked her. “Take off your clothes.”

She backed up a step toward the bathroom, but then pure blazing lust flickered in her eyes, and she stopped and stood her ground in those come-fuck-me shoes. “Oh hell no. You’re in my house. You obey my rules.”

Smoking Gunn by Amelia James will be released on May 25th.

Review: Naturalico Rechargeable Callus Remover


Product Description
Remove more skin every second. Spins 40 times/sec. More spins means more exfoliation than other tools.

Exfoliate a little or a lot with 2 speeds, our pedicure tool lets you customize the experience. Clear your callus using our callus shaver.

Good for the planet & for your feet.  Rechargeable to reduce battery waste; Gentler than a manual file and the see what you're treating LED light illuminates skin, so you can see calluses & rough patches clearly. 

Simple to clean. Water-resistant design for quick & easy washing; 2 Grinding Roller Heads + 1 Cleaning Brush included!

My Review
I wear sandals or flip flops most of the year and because of that my feet can be dried out and have some calluses on them. I've tried the little egg that you rub on your feet and it shaves the rough skin off, I've also tried lotions, oils and wearing a socks on my feet after applying lotion to them. But those things only work for a day or so and I'm right back where I started from. Now while that egg shaver does work, it also takes a while to get all over your foot and make it smooth.

So when I was given the chance to try this out I wasn't sure it would work any better than the things I'd already tried. But I was proven wrong because this Naturalico Rechargeable Callus Remover really smooths my feet and it takes just a couple of minutes to do. You've probably seen a similar product on tv and while I haven't tried that particular brand I will say that this one works really well. 

I've now used it three times and I cannot believe the difference this has made on my dry feet. But what I really like is after using it the first time, I really only needed to get those couple of spots that I didn't get the first time. Then after about a week, I used it again and I didn't need to use it nearly as much as I did the first time. I takes all all the dead skin and leaves your feet very smooth.

I really like that there are no batteries to replace and this is rechargeable. I also like that it's so easy to use and you can get the job done with very little effort. But the best thing is it really works and my feet have not felt this smooth is a long time.

Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health In Las Vegas, Nevada

So last month when we were out, I took these pictures of the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health. I think the construction of this building is the craziest thing I've ever seen. 

The Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health offers a unique model of integrated care, social services and research. With more than 30 clinical trials in its portfolio, the center is among the largest Alzheimer’s clinical research programs in the country.

While the buildings construction might look crazy, they are doing real cutting edge research inside.

Rats 101: Finding a Veterinarian

*Scribbles* 

Finding a Veterinarian that treats rats sounds easy enough but you might be surprised to know that not all veterinarians treat Exotics or pocket pets. So it's a good idea to find one before you bring your new pet home.

Ask Around
Ask the local pet stores in your area what veterinarian they use to treat their small animals. Sometimes they will be able to lead you to a vet that specializes in Exotic animals. Ask other rat owners in your area what veterinarian they use. You can find rat owners on blogs, Facebook groups and rat rescues in your area. Use the Internet to look up veterinarians in your area and start calling them to find out if they treat small animals usually referred to as Exotics. Ask them how much experience they have with rats because you want a vet that knows what they're doing.

Ask The Veterinarian Questions
When calling the different veterinarian offices local to you, you should ask the receptionist to have the veterinarian call you back so you can ask them some questions and find out if they know about rats. Asking the receptionist doesn't really help because they might not know what the vet does and doesn't know about rats.

Once the veterinarian calls you back, tell them that you have a new or are about to have a new pet rat and are looking for a veterinarian in your area to care for them. Ask them if they have experience treating Exotics and especially rats. Ask them how many rats they've treated and if they have experience performing surgery on rats because rats will sometimes get tumors that need to be removed.

You should ask how much they charge for an office visit, tumor removal and if they give you pain medication for the rats after surgery. Some veterinarians believe that rats heal so quickly that they really only need pain medications that first day and this is false. If the veterinarian isn't willing to give you pain medication for post surgery, then call the next vet on the list.

Make An Office Visit
Once you've brought your pet rat home, you should make an appointment for an office visit. While there watch how the vet interacts with your pet. Are they comfortable? Are they scared? Are they knowledgeable about rats?

If you don't feel comfortable, don't go back. Find a new veterinarian and remember this is your pet and you should do what feels right for both of you.

Recipe: Dipping Sauce


Have you ever been to a fast food place called, Raising Cane's? They have a dipping sauce for their chicken fingers that is soooo good. So I went looking to see if there was a dipping sauce similar to the one I like so much and I found this one

The recipe found on that site is...

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise 
1/2 cup Heinz ketchup
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

In a small bowl combine all ingredients and mix until well blended. Store in an air-tight container for a few hours before serving. Will stay good in a container for up to 2 weeks.

Yields: 1 1/2 cups

I like a dipping sauce for my chicken fingers but I also love to find a good dipping sauce for raw vegetables. I like to have a large vegetable platter out for holidays and and for snacking on during the week and this sauce was really good for raw vegetables. I used to use my mom's recipe for buttermilk dipping sauce and I still use that but this is really good too. 

*Recipe from CopyKat.com*

Review: Ghost of Death by Chrys Fey


Book Description
Jolie Montgomery, a twenty-one-year-old woman, wakes up in an alley next to her corpse. She has no memories of her murder or the night she died. She didn’t even see the killer’s face before he or she took her life. Wanting justice, Jolie seeks answers in the only way a ghost can...by stalking the lead detective on the case. 

Avrianna Heavenborn is determined to find the person responsible for a young woman’s death. She gets closer to the killer’s identity with every clue she uncovers, and Jolie is with her every step of the way. 

But if they don’t solve her murder soon, Jolie will be an earth-bound spirit forever.

My Review
One of my blogging friends is an author and a couple of weeks ago I saw that she put a link to one of her supernatural-suspense short stories on her blog. I was curious so I clicked on it and at the time I bought it, it was just .99 so I figured why not. This is the first book from this author that I've read and I was pleasantly surprised at just how much I enjoyed it. 

Jolie is killed but she doesn't remember who killed her or how. She walks around her murder scene talking to the people who are trying to figure out who killed her but none of them can hear her. It's frustrating of course so while she's hovering around one of the detectives looking into her case she starts yelling. That's when Avrianna lets her know she can hear her and from that point on Jolie tries to help Avrianna find out who killed her. 

Avrianna is a really interesting character. Her story is curious because she was abandoned as a baby, can talk to the dead and has supernatural powers including the fact that her eyes glow green at times. I really want to now more about this character.

While this story is short, just 35 pages that didn't stop the author from giving us a back story into Avrianna and Jolie or making the scenes come to life. There's a lot of story contained in these few pages and that made this short story so enjoyable. It was very emotional as we find out why Jolie was killed and by who. It's a tragic look into the mind of a mentally unstable person who decided to kill for a reason that made my heart hurt. 

If you're in the mood for a quick suspenseful read, then give this one a try.

You can purchase this book at this link
You can find Chrys Fey at her Blog, Write With Fey.

I easily give this book 5 out of 5 stars.

My Review
I opened the box as soon as it came in the mail because ever since I saw this product, I've been wanting to try it out. 

As you can see this peeler works exactly like it says it will. I was able to make julienne and thin slices of carrot so easily. Cutting this carrot into pieces you see above took me just a couple of minutes. The thin slices are perfectly thin and it cut all the way down the carrot so this will be great for things like stir fry. What I really love and am excited about is the julienne feature. Look at those great julienne slices of carrot! I like to cut vegetables up into small slices to give to my rats because rats are supposed to have fresh fruit and vegetables everyday. Well this peeler just made my work so much easier.

And the best part is my rats love the tiny rat sized portions. I could hardly wait to give Scribbles a few julienne pieces of carrot and after sniffing around my hand to make sure that I hadn't hidden a yogi in there somewhere, he took the carrots. 

Flower isn't as picky and she took the carrots right away. As you can see these julienne pieces of carrot are exactly the right size for tiny rats hands. 

This julienne vegetable peeler is made really well. This thing isn't going to break anytime soon and it comes with a cleaning brush to get into those hard to reach places especially on the julienne side. I will be using this peeler especially the julienne side for making julienne vegetables for lettuce wraps, stir fry vegetables, rat snacks, and salads. This vegetable peeler is really easy to use too, it practically glides over the vegetables and is so easy to use and cut them.

If you would like to buy this product you can visit Amazon to get the Julienne Vegetable Peeler

You can also visit their PrideBit website.

Review: Miner's Sourdough Bread by Old Town Baking Company


Back when I was a kid living in California, my parents used to buy Pioneer sourdough bread. But now as an adult my brother and I can't find that bread anywhere and even my dad misses it. So when my brother and sister in law went to a farmer's market in California a few weeks ago my brother spotted this bread and bought a loaf hoping it would taste something like the Pioneer sourdough that we cannot find anymore. Imagine his surprise when this bread tasted almost exactly like the sourdough bread he's been looking for. 

He called me that night and told me that he'd found a Sourdough bread that tasted just like the one we were looking for and gave me the name. I was excited when I thought I might be able to order it or find it in a store near me but they only sell it to a few certain restaurants and at Farmer's Markets in certain locations. So my brother was nice enough to get me and our dad two loaves each and mail it to us. 

I have to say, it really is one of the best sourdough breads I've ever had. So if you're at a Farmer's market and happen to see this Miner's Sourdough bread being sold there, I'd buy a loaf. It might just be the best sourdough bread you've ever had.

If you are in California and would like to see their Farmer's Market schedule, you can find it here

And they have a FB Page
