PippinPrints Printable Halloween Decorations Party Pack | Review

Posted on October 25, 2019November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted Product] When it comes to the holidays, it seems like everyone has the same type of decorations. Shopping around at local stores, you’ll find very similar designs and Halloween looks. When browsing PippinPrints, I came across some sophisticated Halloween designs that I had never seen before! This Halloween Printable Party Pack is full of loads of files that can be used to print out your own invitations, decorations, food-related items, etc, and keep your house classy, unique, and cute.

Printing your own bunting and decorations can be super efficient if you’re in a pinch and cannot get out to get your own decorations or products. It’s also a great way to find exactly the design and idea you are going for, all matched together in a lovely kit of similar designs that you can use to theme your home. I was drawn to the Halloween Printable Party Pack because of the watercolor aesthetic and went with the orange pumpkin/spider inspired design instead of the black and white ghost design. I felt adding a bit of color to my decorations were the way to go.

Posted on October 23, 2019November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted Product] When it comes to sustainability, finding a way to take discarded items and make them into something usable is an important part. Many, many resources are just discarded instead of made into something new and useful.

Archie and The Lawlor Cat Hotel | Book Review

Posted on October 21, 2019August 27, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted Product] Often we wonder what our pets get up to when we are away. I personally only have one pet, a British Shorthaired cat called Pancake, but when you have an entire hotel full of cats, only mischief can be found when the humans go home to sleep! Archie and The Lawlor Cat Hotel is a children’s chapter book, for eight years and older, that tells tails of Archie, the head cat running a hotel.

Written from the point of view of Archie, this book does a fantastic job of looking at humans from their perspective. Noting various humanistic interactions, Archie tells you what he thinks of them (humans are staff) and how he sees cats in society (royalty, basically). He also takes you on all of the nighttime adventures that the other cats at the hotel have. From gambling to going out fishing, there is a lot that happens when the lights are switched off. This hotel is full of rotating customers, appearing whenever their humans go on vacation, so you are getting a look into one week of the cat’s adventures, with quite a few regulars at the hotel and a few newbies in the form of young kittens.

Shark Chase – a board game with fish | Review

Posted on October 16, 2019November 14, 2024 by Dann Sullivan

[Ad- gifted product] Board games are something both of us play, every other week, at their tabletop night! Jupiter wasn’t big into board games, until she started writing for Big Boss Battle and started reviewing board games along side Dann. When John Adams offered up Shark Chase to play with the kids, we felt it would be a perfect time to start getting them well into the world of board games. Shark Chase contains a pretty simple concept; don’t let your sea creatures get eaten!

Unlike the more heavy duty board games we review as apart of our jobs, Shark Chase is perfect for children, providing an easy game that takes a few minutes truly understand. The set up is pretty simple – just just need to follow the instructions and put together a strange shark contraption in between a water level and an island. On your first time playing, you do need to stick all of the eyes onto the shark and various sea creatures, with is better done by tweezers if I am honest.

Good Soul CBD-Infused Dark Chocolate Balls | Review

Posted on October 9, 2019November 14, 2024 by Jupiter

[Ad- gifted product] Everyone feels stress and anxieties in day to day life. For some, it’s more than others – but the idea that a lovely chocolate ball could help reduce that stress and anxiety is something that I can very much get behind trying out. Good Soul have produced a CBD-infused dark chocolate candy that feels like a little treat, meant to help you out as you stress about the latest deadline or feel nervous about going to social functions.

As someone who has not tried foods infused with CBD oil which is supplied from https://organiccbdnugs.com, I was initially curious about the hemp taste that this chocolate might have. It’s 64% cocoa, gluten and dairy free and vegetarian, so there’s not much actually in the chocolate to mask the taste. When trying these dark chocolate balls, however, there isn’t a big hemp taste at all – just a slightly hemp after taste that does dissipate fast. The dark chocolate isn’t chalky and doesn’t dry out my mouth completely. Good Soul is a very nice quality chocolate that really feels like a little treat. They have a bunch of studies and research which shows that these chocolates do help anxiety, sleeping and stress, as well as a few other issues that people do have.
