Love My Coffee Bean Grinder

Hello!

I think Santa is going to have to come by boat this year, we have been having major rain storms all day!  So glad it is not snow.   ACCKKK

I was really glad that I was asked to review Bru Joy Manual Coffee Bean Grinder.  I have wanted to try one for awhile now, but I am not a huge coffee drinker.  So, I just kept putting off getting one.

I had read that to get the best cup of coffee, one should grind their own beans.  And, use 2 tsp of coffee per cup in a brewer.

This is very simple to use, and it just right for a couple cups of coffee.  



One can adjust the grinder from fine to a little course depending on preference.  The little window on the side lets ya see how much you have ground.

I have used this almost every morning since I got it, and I think it works great.

One can also grind spices with this grinder.

This would also be great for camping trips; because it is lightweight and stores easily.

I am glad I have it!

COFFEE BEAN GRINDER may be purchased on Amazon.

Handy Dandy Running Belt review

Hi All,

How are you?  We are awesome!  Really looking forward to Christmas!

After all the over-eating some do over the holidays, many of us jump on the exercise bandwagon after the first of the year.

This hydration running belt will come in handy when we are ready to hit the trail. 

company photo

As visible in the above picture, this belt comes with 2 - 9 oz. water bottles and a nice size pocket to hold keys, phone and some cash.  It also has some silicone strips on the inside of the belt to help it stay in place.  

This belt also has reflector tabs that really glow when the light hits them.  In the next picture, one can see how well they lit up when the camera flash hit them.




Staying hydrated is so very important and this belt makes it easy!

Most of us get gifts that we have to return for one reason or another, this would be a good replacement!

Hydration Running Belt may be purchased on Amazon.

HAVE A BALL WITH THE FOREVER FLEX EXERCISE BALL!

Hello!

I hope you are doing well!  Excitement is in the air here at Dragonfly Tales!  More on that later.  :)

Do you like to have fun while exercising?  If so, then you want to get the check in the mail for this exercise ball!  





WHAT'S IN THE BOX?



INFLATED WITH INCLUDED PUMP


TWO EXTRA AIR HOLE PLUGS AND A REMOVER TOOL

Go from box to fun in 5 minutes or less!  My granddaughter and her b/f were here when this ball arrived.  Haley had it inflated and was bouncing on it within 5 minutes.  Easy peasy!

Haley loves this exercise ball.  In fact, she asked if she could buy it from me.  Ha!  No, I didn't sell it to her, but I did let her take it home with her to review.  She has been using it and says she still loves it.

It looks like I am going to have to buy myself one, because what kind of Grandma would I be if I asked for it back?  :)

This exercise ball has a 2,200 weight limit. So no need to worry about it bursting!

Live Infinitely is a delight to work with.  Very friendly and answered questions quickly.  They also make an awesome HAMMOCK

I really don't think one could find a better exercise ball than this one. It also comes in grey, and different sizes depending on ones height.

EXERCISE BALL may be purchased on Amazon or their WEBSITE

HAPPY EXERCISING TO YOU ALL!

THINNING EYEBROWS? GIVE THIS A TRY! ( Video) + discount code

Hola mi amigos!

Yeh, I'm still trying to pretend I speak Spanish.  Ha!  Oh, I will one day, just not today.  :)

Did you know that many years ago, people used goat hair or mouse hides to make their eyebrows thicker?  Well... they did!  This fascination with eyebrows goes wayyy back.  

I am realllly glad we have the option of Luxe Eyebrow Growth Serum.  I'm not really a mouse-y kinda girl.  :)


company photo

This serum contains peptides which aid in hair growth.  It has no odor, and does not leave a residue once it dries.

It should be applied twice a day to a clean brow area.  

I have been using Luxe for almost a month,  and have noticed a slight improvement.  I think that one should keep in mind that all products such as this, needs to be used faithfully.  One can not use it one day and skip the next day and expect to see results.  

Luxe offers a full guarantee on this serum, so really I feel it is worth a try.  It is definitely a step up from goats and mice.  ha!




Luxe Eyebrow Serum may be purchased on Amazon.

Gaming Mouse Review!

Hi Everyone!

How are you doing today?  If you celebrate Christmas, then like me you are probably very bussssyyyy!  

You may be looking for a reasonably priced gift for a "gamer" in your life.  Well, you are in luck, because today we are reviewing a Gaming Mouse.




company photos


I am not a huge gamer.  Therefore, I feel this is too much mouse for me!  There are tons of options and it can be set for multiple users.

Reviews on Amazon are mixed.  But, the company seems reliable when it comes to returns.  So, I would say;  give it a try, it is reasonably priced and has attractive features and design.

This is a fairly large sized mouse, more fit for medium/large hands.

I have included a copy of the company's statement about the capabilities of this mouse.

aLLreLi M811Lu Shark Series High configuration gaming mouse: up to 8200 DPI, 12000 FPS, 1000 Hz polling rate, 150 IPS cursor speed, and an Avago ADNS-9800 sensor. Omron micro-switches provide crisp, firm clicks.
Personalize your mouse to fit your needs: 8 programmable buttons, 5 user profiles, aesthetic and easy-to-use control panel lets you assign actions and record macros like a pro.
6 DPI sensitivity modes, indicated by the mouse lighting color, multilevel adjustment from 200 DPI to 8200 DPI, supporting 200 DPI stepping adjustment. The LED light can be turned off if necessary.
Ergonomically designed, long-term use without fatigue; Symmetrical Design - Perfect for Left and Right handed Gamers; 5ft braided-fiber cable with gold-plated USB connector ensures greater durability. Precision, comfort and easy to control.

I will admit I do not know what all those words mean, but I am sure a gamer would.

I have not used it for long periods of time, but when I did use it, everything (that I knew how to configure) worked fine.

Gaming Mouse may be purchased on Amazon.

Wishing Much Love and Happiness to you All!

Optical Wireless Mouse Review

Hi!

I hope today finds you well and happy!  We are doing great!  

It is pretty obvious if you are reading this blog, that; even if you are using a tablet, you have a working knowledge of a computer.  Yeh, I'm a brainiac! 

Well, if you use a computer, chances are good you have used a "mouse".  Wow, I am all kinds of smart today!



company photos


This is a larger sized mouse than what I am use too.  I use a mini laptop mouse, so I found this mouse a bit too large for me.  It does have features that I like though, so I go back and forth on how I feel about it.

It has an adjustable thumb rest, which is a nice change, and one can click a button and the cursor will return to the center of the screen.  I love that.  Also, the dongle (USB plug in thingy) stores on the bottom of the mouse.

Because this is an optical mouse, one will not see a light on the bottom of it.  It comes with batteries which is always nice.

I do feel this is for a medium/large handed person.  If you are in the market for a mouse, this one does have nice options that I have not found in other ... mice.... mouses'?   :)

Wireless Mouse may be purchased on Amazon.

Wishing Much Love and Happiness to you All!

We LOVE this Mirror Titanium Hair Straightener! It's Professional!

Hi!

Whew, it is a  busy time of the year for a lot of people.  Thank You for taking the time to visit with us today.  You won't be disappointed; because we have a terrific hair product review for today.

It is my "personal opinion" that millions of people have "bad hair days"!  Yes, every day men and women around the world, look in the mirror and think "Wow, I am having a bad hair day today!"  Can you relate?  :)

I don't know if any of you remember the cartoon "The Hair Bear Bunch", but my hair closely resembles theirs!  It is crazy curly in some areas and other areas it is frizz.  And, the older I get, the less time I want to spend doing my hair.  That is just one of the reasons the ISA Professional Titanium Straightener is my new go to hair product.  It heats up quickly, glides effortlessly over my hair, and within two shakes of a cats tail, BAM,  awesome hair!  :)

One can tell just by looking at this flat iron that it is a professional hair styling tool.  It has an LED display, heats up to 450 degrees and has a swivel cord.  Plus, the tapered end makes it easier to iron nearer to the roots of ones hair, and I love it for my bangs.


company photo


Isn't this a beaut!  It makes me happy just to see it sitting on my make up table!




Another way one can tell this is high quality is by looking at the cord.  This next picture shows a chain store straightener cord vs the ISA cord.  BIG difference.  And, it is a lot longer.



This product comes with a TWO year guarantee.  I feel this shows that the company has faith in their product.

My Granddaughter and I both highly recommend this flat iron.

Check out more from ISA Professional on:



Mirror Titanium Flat Iron can be purchased on Amazon, or the company website.

Surprising number of plastic straws are used every day! Stainless Steel Alternative

Hi,

I hope today finds you well and happy.  

Through research, I found that 500 million straws are used per day in the USA.  This came as quite a shock to me.  That is a bunch!

Most of them get disposed of after one usage.  They can take up to 200 years  to decompose.  

Plastic straws are in the top ten debris found in our oceans.  I watched a YouTube video where a turtle had somehow gotten a straw stuck in it's nose.  It cried, as the rescuers pulled it out.

I love the ocean.  It makes me sad that people throw trash into something so beautiful and beneficial to our world.

These stainless steel straws will save you $$ and help protect the environment.



These come in a box with a cleaning brush and a cute little "Thank You" card.

These sell on Amazon for less than $6.  And, they have a life time guarantee.  Ya' just can't beat that!

One should avoid using plastic straws for strong citrus drinks, as the acid from the citrus can pull harmful toxins out of the plastic, and then we drink them.   :/

Stainless Steel Straws may be purchased on Amazon.

Kinda Vintage, Kinda Chic Sunglasses

Hello!

I hope ya'll are doing great today!  We are all good here!

We are having winter weather here in Ohio, but the sun still shines, and that means we still need SUNGLASSES!

WearMe_Pro sent us another stylish pair of sunglasses to review for ya'll.

My friend, JM, was here when I opened them and she went gaga over them.  They are just soooo her!  Don't you just love it when you find something and know just the right person for it?

She was wearing a shirt with a movie star's face on it.  It was perfect for these round cateye sunglasses.





Isn't this just the cutest!  And 100% UVA/UVB protection.




Just a little tid-bit my daughter taught me; if you are having a bad hair day, use your sunglasses for a stylish hair accessory!  






These sunglasses are light-weight and feel very comfortable to wear.  

They come with a protective bag to keep them in.  They are quite affordable.  And, can one ever have too many sunglasses?  I don't think so!

Round Cateye Sunglasses may be purchased on Amazon.

Learn Ball Room Dancing in the Privacy of Your Own Home!

Hi!

Well, it is beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here!  Many people have their homes all lit up with Christmas decorations, and although we have had some chilly weather, we've had no snow.  And, in my opinion that is a good thing!  I can fall just walking across my living room, so put me on a slippery snowy surface and I'm pretty much guaranteed a nasty fall!  

Hey, do you ever watch any of those dancing shows and think; "I'd like to learn to dance?"  


This 7 volume  DVD set is geared towards beginners.


There are 4 types of dance styles in this set.  


  • Swing 
  • Waltz 
  • Rumba 
  • Foxtrot










Now all you need is a ballgown or tuxedo and you are ready to dance the night away!

Even if you never get to attend the ball, this is a fun way to get exercise.  And,  if you and your significant other just dance in the privacy of your own home, it is a way to connect with one another.  

Life can be short, learn something new.  Dance in the rain.  Dance like no one is watching.  Give yourself permission to have fun!

This would make a great holiday gift to get ready for that New Years Resolution of learning to dance!


Ballroom-Dance-Mastery-System may be purchased on Amazon.
