I recently had the opportunity to test out the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 for a month as part of an ongoing partnership with Verizon. Before receiving the tablet, I would’ve never guessed that a piece of Android technology could have converted me from it’s Apple counterpart – but it did. Let’s talk about why, from… Continue reading Why I switched from Apple for the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2

Hatchery: A Subscription Box For Discerning Foodies
Of all the different specialty food subscription boxes I’ve tested (and I’ve tested quite a few), Hatchery is probably my favorite. I love the idea that you get to try so many products in each box, and although they aren’t full-sized, you can get a lot of use out of them while deciding if you… Continue reading Hatchery: A Subscription Box For Discerning Foodies
Do you Need a Smartwatch?
For the past month or so, I’ve been playing around with the Samsung Galaxy 6 and their first-generation smartwatch, Samsung Gear, thanks to Verizon. Samsung has recently updated to a new version of their smartwatch, which quite frankly, looks badass and dates this review a little bit. However, the functionality is essentially the same. So… Continue reading Do you Need a Smartwatch?
Delicious Italian Wines Don’t Have to be Expensive
A few weeks ago, I attended an event where I was introduced to the wonderful world of Sicilian wines. Let’s get one thing straight – I’m no sommelier. I’ve been known to hit up Trader Joes for 2 buck chuck when the need for wine has arisen. But this year I’ve given wine another chance… Continue reading Delicious Italian Wines Don’t Have to be Expensive
Book of the Month Club Subscription Review
I love to read. This year I made it my goal to read 52 books – one for each week. I’m happy to say that as of the beginning of October, I kicked my goal’s butt! As such, I’m looking for more books to read before the end of the year. I stumbled upon the Book… Continue reading Book of the Month Club Subscription Review
Mary’s Secret Ingredients: A Subscription Box Review
I’m kind of strange in that one of my favorite types of gifts to receive is food-related or kitchen tools. Honestly, nothing is more exciting to me than either of those things. I could get lost in William’s Sonoma or Sur La Table. So I was excited when I first stumbled upon the Mary’s Secret Ingredients… Continue reading Mary’s Secret Ingredients: A Subscription Box Review
How to Make Easy & Delicious Meatballs
It’s an old assumption that every Italian family has a sauce recipe and a meatball recipe. I think my family lost both. For years, I’ve been trying to make the perfect sauce and meatballs. Recently, I came pretty close to the perfect meatball recipe. Meatball Recipe: Makes 8 meatballs Ingredients: 2 lbs. Ground Beef 1/3… Continue reading How to Make Easy & Delicious Meatballs
Vinyl Me, Please: A Subscription Box Review
Vinyl Me, Please bills itself as “The Best Damn Record Club Out There”. Given the care that goes into every single package they send out, I’d be inclined to agree. If you’re not aware, Vinyl Me, Please is one of many vinyl subscription services out there that offers delivery of a curated record for around… Continue reading Vinyl Me, Please: A Subscription Box Review
Barkbox: A Subscription Box Review
This post is part of a series reviewing different subscription boxes. I first tried BarkBox over a year ago, when I first got my own dog. I was so excited, because I’d been waiting since I started college to get him – my parents’ graduation present to me. I wanted to welcome my furry child… Continue reading Barkbox: A Subscription Box Review
Target Beauty Box: A Subscription Box Review
You can find a subscription box for almost anything – pets, alcohol, kids, food… and beauty. Subscription boxes have become my favorite way to discover new products. They also offer an incredible value – at least the reputable ones do. For a low monthly recurring payment, you get products curated by experts for less than… Continue reading Target Beauty Box: A Subscription Box Review
