January Nibblr Subscription Box

So after searching around on My Subscription Addiction for a subscription box to try out for free or on the cheap to see if I liked it, I found this Nibblr box from the Pillsbury company!

Upon opening my box, I found a tray of four, healthy, portion controlled snacks. Each month they send you four snacks at random, until you begin to personalize your account.  You can personalize your account by selecting "Love it, Like it, Interested, or No Thanks".  All snacks begin marked "Interested", and after trying them you may mark them otherwise.  They will then try to send snacks marked "Love it" and "Like it" more often, and avoid sending the ones marked "No Thanks".

The first snack on my try was "PB Graham"

It is described as "peanuts, peanut wafers, and graham cookies snack mix", and falls into the "Feel Good Sweets" category.

Just a note, Nibblr CAN NOT cater to food allergies, and from what I have gathered they send quite a few nut products.

Review: This has officially changed my opinion of peanuts, I really did not think I liked them until now! I also wasn't sure what it meant by "peanut wafer", but it turned out to be a big salty peanut butter chip, which works for me! Loved this one!
This was also definitely enough for 2 servings, for me at least
The second snack in my tray was "Red, White, and Boom!"

It is described as "shortbread cookies, blueberries, and raspberries snack mix" and also falls into the "Feel Good Sweets" category.

Review: I loved this one too! I am not usually a fan of just plain shortbread cookies, but combined with the freeze dried raspberries and blueberries it was great! I preferred the raspberries greatly to the blueberries, and have since been searching for them to buy individually!
This one was enough for two servings as well.
 The third snack in my tray was "Nice & Naughty"

It is described as "sea salt caramel truffles and hazelnuts snack mix" and, once again, falls into the "Feel Good Sweets" category.

Review: Though I really enjoyed the sea salt chocolate caramel chocolate truffles (obviously!) I wasn't crazy over the Hazelnuts.  I ate about half of them trying to like them, and then just gave up, this is just a personal preference though!  
This snack was only about one serving.
The final snack on my tray was "Fa-la-la Licious"

It is described as "cranberries, almonds, and pistachios snack mix", and falls into the "fruit and nut" category.

Review: Nope, nuh uh, I don't do nuts.  After the peanuts were good, and the hazelnuts were tolerable, I decided to try the almonds and pistachios, and was NOT a fan... but that is just a personal preference.













So in conclusion, it was a really nice box, and cool treat, but I'm not sure if I will be keeping it.  At $6 a box, the snacks are about the same price individually as vending machine food, but I tend to pack my own snacks instead of resorting to a vending machine so it isn't exactly sensible for me.  Though I have no complaints and might come back and try it at a later date, I am pausing my subscription for now.

Ipsy: June

So guys... I resubscribed to Ipsy!  Since I was back to having a summer job I figured I could spare $10 a month!  And so far, this bag wasn't the best, but I updated my profile so it will take a minute for them to readapt. The bag this month though... It is on my swap site on MySubscriptionAddiction if you want it!  Needless to say, I wasn't impressed. This is the Kokie nail polish in the color Gone Rio.  I hadn't ever heard of this brand before, but the packaging is adorable!  Apparently you can buy it at Walmart for around $5.  The color is a really nice orange-y coral and it has a decent lasting power considering how rough I am on my nails!  Overall I liked it and I would buy from this brand again. This is the City Color Shimmer Shadow in the color Cheers to Life.  It is a pretty basic sandy brown with a ton of shimmer, obviously!  City Color isn't my favorite brand to get because it is fairly cheap and the products are ki...

Spring Break 2016

Well I just finished an extremely short Spring Break... I was only given two days last week! Isn't that sad?  But hey, I had the most of it! I started out Spring Break (on Wednesday night) with a bonfire for my friend's birthday!  We have the perfect bonfire spot beside a river, and in the river lives otters!  It was too dark to see them that night, but they are my favorite animal, and I am looking foreward to many Summer bonfires with our otter friends!  I have never really been into the whole eno hammock thing, but my friend brought a double so I though, why not??  It was surprisingly comfortable, and we had a lot of fun celebrating her birthday together! But now the main event of Spring Break... On Thursday Maze (my boyfriend) and I went to a Flogging Molly concert in Charlotte!   But first I made him take me to South Park Mall, because it looked insane!!  And it was, though it took longer to get to Charlotte than we thought it wo...
