Waterproof Backpack Dry Bag Review #SKORCHBags


10L Yellow Dry Bag 





The Skorch Bright Yellow Dry bag is fully waterproof and will keep all your items (clothes, cameras, and most importantly your phone) dry. This bag is awesome to have for your trips to the beach and when you go to that rowdy pool party. Oma loves the size; big enough to store all your important treasures but small enough not to be awkward to carry.

The Dry Bag is very durable and normally retails at $24.99. For a limited time, however, you can buy it on Amazon for just $14.99!

Oma loves the color because it stands out and is easy to find!

Brieftons NextGen Spiralizer Review + Giveaway #Brieftons






What a fun tool to make an easy and healthy meal. Oma found this spiralizer both easy to use and to clean. Be sure to choose a thick, firm and straight vegetable, because they work best.Next week, we are going to try Zucchini Noddle spaghetti – Can’t wait.

Your Briefton NextGen Spiralizer comes with four removable blades, a deep-penetrating finger-guard cap, a bonus cleaning brush, a printed color manual, and a Brieftons Spiral Slicer Recipe Ebook to help you get started.

Tip:  For vegetables with a core such as zucchini and cucumber, don’t cut the top end flat. Instead, you can use that end to provide a firmer, more solid area for the cap spikes to hold onto.

Happy Birthday Dad


Oma fondly reminisces thirty-seven years ago, we had just moved into our new home that Opa built. I had been up and down the ladder all day, Watco oiling our paneling in the kitchen. Indigestion beset all day, followed by little cramps.

Opa came home from work and looked very concerned. However, in my wisdom, Oma informed him that she was fine and the baby was not coming. 

Around 11:00 p.m., as we were trying to settle into bed, I would moan a bit every few minutes. Again I tried to convince my husband that our second baby was not on the way. Nevertheless, Opa did not listen. He telephoned his mother and she rushed over to come and babysit our oldest.

We had barely arrived at Pomerado Hospital when I realize that I was about to push our baby out into the world. We had to wait for the doctor to arrive and Zachariah Joseph arrive within the hour. 

He has been a “dynamism not to be ignored” ever since!

MeasuPro Ultra-Fast Cooking Thermometer Review #MeasuProThermometer


MeasuPro Ultra-Fast Cooking Thermometer


The MeasuPro Digital Cooking thermometer will imbue you with the utmost confidence to create the perfect dishes. It is designed to make food preparations simple. Peeking into the oven to check the doneness of the food you are cooking or baking is inconvenient and causes the oven temperature to lower drastically.

With the MeasuPro Digital Cooking Thermometer there is no need for that. You can set the thermometer to the temperature of your choice. Stick the long 36 inch probe into the center of the food and close the oven door. The thermometer will beep once the food hits your desired temperature. Its built in timer is a great feature while you are working in the kitchen. The thermometer probe's cable diameter is small enough to allow it to be closed in an oven door without creating a heat leak. It has and extra wide measuring range of 32°F to 392°F. MeasuPro is intent on reducing worries... and flopped dinners!

Oma found the MeasuPro Ultra-Fast Cooking Thermometer well-constructed and durable. It is also very easy to use. This unit has a temperature range of 32F to 392 F and beeps when your food reaches the desired temperature.

A great feature is how it flips up so that you can read the information easily when cooking; then lays flat for convenient storage.
