Love With Food: May

This is the May Love With Food box, and it was really cute!  It had a nice variety, and some very cool different things that I wouldn't normally have bought myself, but I plan to look for again!

The flavor of this Kutoa Peanut Butter and Jelly bar was pretty good, but the texture really threw me off...  It had a very soft texture, and I like my bars like this to have a little crunch.  That soft texture in addition to the subtle flavor just wasn't a great combination.

These Smarty Pants Women's Vitamin Gummies were a "bonus" this month and not technically counted as one of the food items, which I thought was cool!  There were enough in there for a few days worth of doses, and even though they weren't my favorite gummy vitamins ever, they were pretty good!

Trail Mix isn't really my thing because I tend to pick out what I want and leave the rest... But this Emily's trail mix wasn't bad, it just isn't my favorite

I don't really like jelly beans because they tend to have very artificial tastes that remind me of medicine, but the Surf Sweets Organic Jelly Beans weren't too bad! I gave them to my little brother and just ate a couple, but they had a pretty good flavor and we both approved!

A sucker! I never just get suckers anymore, it's such a childhood thing.  This Glee Gum lollipop was a cute thing to include, but I don't really feel like this is a "snack" worth counting.

These Biena Chickpeas were so good!  I'm not a huge fan of nuts, so I thought these might be ok, but I didn't expect to like them nearly as much as I did.  The only ingredients were chickpeas, sunflower oil, and sea salt, so they can't be that bad either!  They had a nice crunch and the salt wasn't overpowering, I'd definitely look for them again.

I was super excited for the Smooze Fruit Ice, even though I'm not a huge coconut fan.  Because I'm not a huge coconut fan, this was a little odd to me.  The flavor wasn't bad, just not what I'd normally choose.  My main problem with this was that I couldn't get it to squeeze out of the paper!!


This Skinny Pop Chocolate Pop Corn was SO good!! Like, I wasn't expecting that at all!  It had just enough chocolate flavor to get a sweet fix, and was that perfect balance between sweet and salty.  I would buy this everyday.







This Chocolate Chip Brownie Brittle was tied for my favorite thing in this box!  It was sooo chocolatey and yummy, like super crunchy cookies.  They were small and there weren't a ton of pieces, so it keeps you in check, while still giving you a wonderful chocolate snack.


The box this month also came with this cute little sample of the Simple Micellar Water!  I think that is such a cool idea to include a little beauty sample with the food, I love it!

And then aaaaall of these coupons and papers which I intend to use, but never do...

So out of this box I really like four, and could take or leave five, and didn't dislike any!  Those odds aren't too bad, especially considering I REALLY liked those four! 
I had originally purchased a discounted three month subscription, and this was supposed to be my last box, but they sent me an email for one at half price and I got roped in... So expect to see a June Love With Food box soon!

Girls Night In!

Time to unwind with a girls night!  If you are like me and my adorable roomie, you just completed a week of mind numbing midterms and you need to unwind.   Priority number one is getting into the comfiest possible clothes that you own, bonus points if you have super cute matching pjs unlike me... My top pick is my boyfriends flannel (which is huge on me! <3) and leggings with fuzzy socks.   If you want to go the comfy but cute route, Adore Me has sleepwear ranging from sexy slips and camis if you are having a night in with your significant other, cute sweats for a girls night like we are having, and robes if you just need something to cuddle up in and be extra cozy! I highl y reccomend them!  And, just like with their bra and panty sets, your first set is only $25! Step two is to slap on a face mask! In the picture above I am wearing the Glam Glow SuperMud, which is not pictured because I only have a small Sephora sample, but it work...

Influenster Spirit VoxBox

I know I've been pretty absent the past month or two and this isn't one of my usual post days, but I wanted to go ahead and let you all know that I got another VoxBox!! This one was the Spirit VoxBox.  I'm not entirely sure the significance of the theme of this box, but it had some cute and interesting new products This was the NYC Lovatics Lip and Cheek tint, and is apparently a collaboration from Demi Lovato. This is supposed to be similar product to the Benefit Benetint product!  I've tried it, and I can vouch for the fact that it is definitely a STAIN, so don't mess up, and if you use your fingers to spread it then beware!  It isn't drying at all, though it does tend to cling to the drier places on your lips.  The color is a bright pink and lasts the entire day, if not longer!  And that is no exaggeration...  I can't say I'm a huge fan of it as a cheek stain, but I am still working on figuring out how to apply it the correct way. The...

Sprezza Box: October

This type of post is a bit out of the ordinary for me... You all know I am obsessed with subscription boxes, but this one is a man's subscription box!  I have seen this type of box before and thought they looked interesting, but expensive and a bit feminine.   This one was neither of those things.  It is normally $28, which is more than I like to pay for a box, but they were doing a promotion for your first box for $8!  I thought, why not?  I can either give it to my boyfriend or my day, everyone wins!  The box came with: A Countess Mara Tie Sprezza brand Cufflinks Paul Evans Socks A Business Card Holder "Fashion Anchors" (set of 6) Frey for Men Laundry Detergent (1 load) As you can see, it came with many really nice items, that seem to be good quality, and were beautifully packaged! I plan to give the tie and socks to my boyfriend as part of his Christmas present, and the business card holder to my friend who is currently...
