Healing Crystals Wands, Amethyst, Clear, and Rose Quartz, by Banshren

Candles, and crystals are an essential part of our household; Both bring relaxation, charges us with energy, and also cleans our spirits. Combining both, candles and crystals, is refreshing and inspiring. While we use candles most of the times, we still have several crystals around the house that also help with the cleansing of our home’s environment. Yes, we are believers that it keeps bad intentions, vibes and related away. It is a form of protection.

When we ordered these crystals, (I, Mrs. LMRTFY) as always, did not pay much attention to the sizing. So the original idea was to carry the crystals in a pocket or purse when we left the house but these crystals are of a nice size, and are heavy enough to be noticed. The set comes with an Amethyst (purple) crystal, a clear Quartz wand, and a rose Quartz. All crystals are pointed at the top and have six sides (from top to bottom). The Amethyst is about 3 inches tall (and a bit over 3.5 inches around), the clear Quartz is the tallest of the crystals at 3.5 inches tall (and 3 inches around) and the rose Quartz is close to 3.5 inches tall (and 4 inches around). 

These crystals are absolutely stunning, the variations of each crystal are surely unique and also bring some magical allure to each of the crystals. We decided to use the crystals for decoration while being undercover protection for our home. If you are not familiar with crystals, you should know that each one needs to be charged if you are interested in using it for protection. Charging the crystals its actually pretty easy, there are different methods but the one we prefer is simply living the crystals outside, and exposed to the light of a Full Moon. A wish can also be added by writing on a piece white of paper your desires, placing it under the crystal while it charges. Next Full Moon will be a Super Moon, so we are super excited to place out our crystals to charge with so much energy. Another thing is, we also like to charge the crystals every month; It is not necessary but it is part of our ritual which works perfectly for us. Amethysts provide healing, and allow for grief to leave our surroundings. Clear Quartz are used for intensifying energies, as well as the intentions of a wish. Rose Quartz, which we find to be very popular, are used for anything related to love, and nourishment. 

All together, the quality of these crystals is simply remarkable. The trio looks beautiful, and if anything it is a gorgeous statement piece wherever you decide to place them if the ultimate goal is simple decor. We will definitely be adding more of these crystals to our household.

Electric BBQ Grill, 1340W, by Excelvan

There are times that like any other consumer out there I buy a product and proceed to cross my fingers that it indeed works exactly as advertised. For the last four years, Mr. LMRTFY has been wanting a grill. You see, when we moved from Florida to the Midwest we did our own move, and packed all we could into a biggest rental truck available, and off we went with a six month baby boy, one dog, and two cats (who were upset at being in close proximity to our dog), all while towing away our car which was also fool of our belongings. It was a pretty exciting road trip with all sorts of ups and downs. What does the grill has to do with it? Well, we also had to do last moment sacrifices in order to get all of our belongings packed. While I said good bye to my comfortable office chair, Mr. LMRTFY had to say good bye to his pretty cool gas grill which was one of the first gifts I gave him after we married. So, for the last four years other things had taken priority in our lives, and the grill took the back burner in our list.

When I came across this grill I knew right away that Mr. LMRTFY would like it, if it worked as expected. He would be thrilled because it was electric which meant that during the winter he could use it inside the house without any issues. Granted, it was not his big gas grill but he knows we will get to it eventually. So, I went ahead and placed my order, hoping I would impress the Mr a bit while get some yummy steaks out of it.

The shipping took about a week and a half as it is not an Amazon “Prime” item but it included free shipping. The grill came in pieces which needed to be assembled. The assembly itself was pretty easy, there are instructions included with it for those that like me might get confused while putting things together. However, it does not include any tools; You will need an Allen key to assemble it correctly. The Mr. did the assembly which did not take more than 15 minutes which includes the time he spend getting the Allen key from his tool chest.

This electric grill is, “like a big George Foreman grill” according to Mr. LMRTFY, and I will agree to it. What makes the difference is that it comes with the stand that allows it to be place anywhere without any issues as long as there is an electrical outlet near. Currently, we live in a town-home , and its HOA and also the city’s ordinance say that grills cannot be placed on decks or close to the property as part of preventing fires, but this electric grill does not count, and it is perfectly fine to have on the deck if chosen. Since I’m mentioning the outdoors, let me just say that the grill cannot be left outside. If there is rain (or snow) it should be removed which might be a small inconvenience that becomes part of the routine quickly. With that said, this grill is not weatherproof.

The stand of the BBQ has a nice plastic tray that is perfect for holding spices, utensils and similar when in use. At first I was not sure if the tray would actually get any use but it does as Mr. LMRTFY uses it every time he grills. The controller of the BBQ has five different settings that allows for the adjustment of its temperature according to whatever if being cooked. The instruction booklet also helps with cooking times if needed. The grill’s surface is twenty-tree inches which is big enough for a big family, or while hosting. The first time we used the grill was during out Halloween party, and it was a big hit! Not only did it delivered, but everyone wanted to ask about it because of how easy to use it was. The die cast aluminium plate is divided into two non stick plates, a 3/4 ribbed griddle and a 1/4 flat hot plate which at first I did not think would be that useful, until I was proven wrong. It is super useful! Not only can we cook meats and everything on the grill, we can even use it to prepare outdoor breakfasts as the flat surface is perfect for eggs and pancakes!

The electrical plug can be easily removed and placed away whenever the grill is not in use which happens to be one of Mr. LMRTFY favorite features as he is always worried about safety, and our curious child. The grill also can be used as a tabletop by simply removing it from the stand and placing in on a flat surface. We have not used it as a tabletop due to Mr. LMRTFY’s safety concerns when it comes to our child but as he grows, I’m sure it will be used also as a tabletop grill. What else can I say about this awesome electrical grill? It is 1350W power operated, it is quiet, and easy to clean. Its top cover can be removed if wanted without any hassle. The grill also comes with a small metal bucket that it is installed inside the grill and under its plate that captures all the greasy without creating any messes. After every use, we remove the grill plate and clean it as we would clean any other cast iron surface; We make sure it is completely dry before storing it away as well.

Overall, I received big wifey points. We both like this grill a lot, A LOT. It has been the perfect solution to our home. When we move we will get the big outside grill but while we are at our town-home we are perfectly happy with this electric grill, and how it works. It is the right solution for those of us with limited “outside space”. It simply delivers and allows for some healthy, and delicious cooking. I have to add, that I was not even asked to review this item but we love it so much I had too. We use it at least three times a week, and we don’t see it being put away not even during the Winter.

Adult Coloring Book: Butterflies and Flowers Stress Relieving Patterns by Megan Ellis

My adult coloring book addiction began about a year ago, and has no signs of stopping anytime soon. It has become my hiding place, my adult time out of choice, because I’m able to disconnect my thoughts from anything that might be causing me stress at the time. I enjoy all sorts of books; From intricate designs to simple and easy ones. This book by Megan Ellis lies right in between.

The book has fifty unique designs, and it is printed on single pages which is perfect for those of us who enjoy coloring with gel pens. As the name suggests all its designs revolve around butterflies and flowers. Some pages are simple, others have the perfect mix, and others are a bit convoluted with smaller details. The pages of this book are not perforated, and the designs cover the whole page which can be a bit of an inconvenience to those of us who do not like to remove the pages from the coloring books. The quality of the paper I would compare it to regular (multipurpose) white printing paper. Some colored pencils work perfect with the paper, others did not do so good but that was no issue as I'm lucky enough to have several sets and was able to find one that is to my liking.

Overall, since the designs vary from complicated to simple this book has become my night time go to book. Whenever I just want to color for a bit before going to bed, I take out this book and it does the job of unwinding my mind. It is a beautiful book that, for me, screams unconventional bright color combinations which I find to be fun.

Cartoon Cash Coin Bank with Password, Minion Style, by HJIAN

We love Halloween so much that came up with the idea that the Pumpkin King (Jack Skellington) brings a gift on the night of October 31^st because he works with Santa, so that is how they check the progress of the “good list”. Do not judge us! Our toddler loves the idea, and it is our family’s very own tradition. The gift the Pumpkin King brings does not need to be nothing fancy (or expensive), and this year he is leaving this super cool Minion looking piggy bank.

The three AA battery operated toy bank is fairly big, we had imagined it way smaller but we are happily surprised by its size; It is about 7.7 x 5.3 x 4.9 inches. It is made out hard plastic, and the Minion details (like the eyes) are painted and part of the color of the bank (not a cheap sticker!). It is pretty cool, and we are sure the kiddo will simply love it. It has a slot at the top big enough for bills as well as coins. It has a nice number pad with rubber buttons that allows to set the password for the bank, and, obviously, it is also used to open the bank. The password for it is 0000, and it will be that every time the coin bank is reset (batteries replaced or removed) which is convenient in case the password is forgotten. It also comes with an instructions booklet which is very useful as it has the information about the password, and how to set it up which is pretty simple. The door of the bank even has a knob for opening and closing the door, we know our son will simply love his new “piggy” bank because he likes all those little gadgets. In addition, on top of the keyboard there are LED lights that turn when entering the password, and alert of wrong combinations and so on. 

We like the bank but have to alert others, it is loud: LOUD. We tried setting up the piggy bank before giving it to our son but we were not expecting all the noises. How bad was it? We tried it after our son went to bed, and it was loud enough to wake him up. We were reprimanded by a very tired toddler who accused us of not letting him sleep. So, if you or your child are noise sensitive take our failure into consideration. Other wise, the Minion bank looks pretty neat, and we know all like it. Our son is trying to remember phone numbers, so this password operated bank will also be used as a learning aid to help him figure out how to remember specific numbers.

42" Adjustable Height Oscillating Tower Fan With Noiseless Airflow Technology and Remote Control by Ozeri

Our house is always at 60 degrees but due to some medication changes, now I cannot handle that temperature which has thrown the rest of the family out of the loop when it comes to the temperature of the house. So, it has been about a month since we began using this tower fan, and I’m happy to report that we have not experience any issues at all. My husband is a fan of the fan, as he is the one who has been affected the most by the higher temperature settings in our household.

The fan requires assembly for which a Phillips screwdriver, not provided, is needed. The assembly took about three minutes, so it is easy if you have previous experience putting a tower fan together. This fan is aesthetically pleasing which is one of the reasons why we wanted it. It is elegant, and be placed in any room with any decor without being an eye sore. My husband does not care about the brand name placement on the lower front part of it but I understand that is how brands get their name to become recognizable. The tower looks exactly as pictured, and it is forty-two inches tall. Its base seems a bit fragile, too thin, for the whole fan but amazingly we have not had any issues with the fan being unstable. It has three different previously programmed modes, one which is called, “sleep”. I have to say we do not use the fan in the bedroom but the setting for “sleep” continuously changes the speed of the fan which I find a bit annoying, and frankly do not understand its purpose. In our household the fan is either doing the 90 degrees oscillation or just static; Both options work as expected.

One of the things I like about this fan is its timer which is set to one hour increments up to twelve hours. The second thing which we all like is that the remote control can be stored on the top on the fan, securely under its window which eliminates the constant wonder of where was the remote left or who had it last. The fan’s display is easy to understand, and also to read at a distance. Its remote control is small, easy to grab and hold, it requires batteries which are supplied.

Overall, it is a great fan. I like how loud the “breeze” of it can get depending on the speed as it is like a comfortable white noise sound that drowns any other ambiance noises. However, what I find extremely annoying is the beeping for every action. It beeps when its turned on, when its turned off, when the speed or modes are selected and so on. Other than that, this tower fan works as designed and as expected. My husband likes it so much he ended up taking it downstairs to our home office where he spends most of the time when he works from home.
