For this review I was sent two different GirlEO Tanks that are super cute, girly and best of all comfy. From their GirlEO Collection  I received the Pink, ribbed Girl Extra Ordinaire tank  with black writing and sparkly flowers to jazz it up and give it that GirlEO touch.This tank is also available in blue and white.

The other tank that I received was one of their custom made tanks that I just love and thats their Sweet Heart tank. A black, ribbed tank with a cupcake and the word Sweet Heart decorated in jewels. Its glitzy and shiny and goes great with a pair of jeans and some flops.

Both tanks are made of 100% cotton and are the perfect length, they go down to the top of my jeans . Their not those overly baggy, longer ones that look messy. Their just right.
You can wear them with just about anything for everyday or even lounge wear.



GirlEO makes any occasion or celebration more festive and allows you to  express yourself through their apparel with their customization and personalization. You can even get something for the fellas so that they don't feel left out.   If you want it, they have it and if not  they will make it for you . Great for places of business, sports teams, graduations, birthday's and any other day that end's in y.
Don't be ordinary. Be extraordinary with GirlEO

Cuppa Jane Coffee Review




 Cuppa Jane is every woman's source for all things coffee and tea. It's a place with an inviting atmosphere and is very easy to navigate so you ware sure to find exactly what you want.
You'll find that they have some on the best deals on the web for many name brand items and great deals on premium, roasted to order coffees that are some of the worlds best.


Cuppa Jane and Blue Jazz Java branded coffee products freshly roasted their own coffee and have them delivered to your door. With over 37 years, in the coffee and tea industry they know their stuff so you can rest assured and enjoy their delicious and low cost products.
 Cuppa Jane not only carries coffees and teas but they also have a variety of 
Cappuccinos, Cocoas and Chai , Cold Drinks, Frozen Drinks and even Brewing Equipment.


For this review I was sent two different bags of Cuppa Jane coffee to  try out.  
A 16 oz. bag of Whole Bean Cinnamon Sugar Cookie and Hazelnut.
 




Whole Bean and Ground
Price
$8.95 16 oz. bag


Whole Bean and Ground
Price$8.95 16. oz bag



 My Thoughts
Hazelnut coffee is one of my favorites but as you know different blends taste different so I am always interested in trying a new blend. I haven't ever tried Cinnamon Sugar Cookie though.
After I received my coffee I start with the Cinnamon Sugar Cookie first. I broke out the blender and ground up the beans and then put the ground coffee back in the bag that it came in to keep it fresh. I decided to test out the cinnamon sugar cookie as iced coffee and it has a taste that I have never tasted in coffee before. It's very fresh and has just a hint of cinnamon so its not to over bearing and it really does taste like a sugar cookie. I grounded the hazelnut the following morning to use for our morning coffee and this has got to be the best hazelnut coffee I have ever tasted. Its not a strong coffee or taste and its like just how I like it.
While it was brewing it filled the entire house with a delicious hazelnut scent.
Cuppa Jane has many other tasty flavors that you can try and they are very affordable. What you pay for a 16 oz. bag here is less than what you pay for a 8 oz. bag other places. Less money and double the coffee. You don't even have to go to the store and stand in the busy lines to wait and get it just visit their site shop and order what you would like and let them deliver it to your front door.

Getting to Know You - Elisha from Baybee Luv




 Getting to Know You on Thursday's is a fun way for to get to know one another and share our blogs with each other.
If you have a blog and would like to be featured for Getting to Know You, send me an email at pr@sjunkie.com and I will get you scheduled :) 

 This week for Getting to Know You Thursday
I would like to introduce you to Elisha from Baybee Luv




Tell me a bit about yourself.. 
I am a 23 year old, first time mother. I suffered through two miscarriages that were very tragic for me and I didn’t think I was going to be able to get pregnant. My doctors didn’t know why I wasn’t holding a baby to term. Then in the summer of 2009, I got pregnant and now I have a 4 month old beautiful baby girl! I am a college attending, single, first time, going-back-to-work-soon mommy.
Tell me a bit about your blog 
I started Baybee Luv a few days before my induction to have somewhere to put my thoughts, share my stories, and write about my experiences going through motherhood. I have found it extremely enjoyable and now feature articles, advice, product reviews and more. I also feature a post called Elisha’s Essentials; these posts are about products I feel are just necessary for raising a baby and help a busy mother’s day just a little bit easier.
How did you get into blogging ??  
I used to be a Liverjournaler all through high school and eventually drifted away. I’ve always loved writing in journals and being able to look back on things I went through. When I got pregnant I knew I wanted somewhere I could do this – and blogging was just perfect.
What type of blog do you have ?  Who does your blog appeal to most ? 
My blog is a mommy/baby blog and would appeal to all mothers of children, but mostly to young mother who are trying to balance life, school, work, and children.
What is your favorite thing about blogging ? 
I just love being able to write about all my experiences and challenges carefree. Being able to voice my opinion and possibly help another mother out there is really rewarding to me.
Do you have any blogging goals ? 
Just to meet other moms. Having a baby is a very busy thing to juggle with all the other things I am trying to accomplish to make our lives better, so meeting other moms is something I would love to do .
Where can people find you ??

MarxFoods Palm Leaf Plates Review



Until 2007, Marx Foods was a high-end restaurant distributor and they only provided products for top restaurants. Now however, you can buy the finest and freshest foods just  like the pro's. Marx Foods goal is to supply you with the ingredients for a memorable dining experience that you don't have to go to a restaurant to enjoy but you can enjoy in your own home. With a remarkable selection of meats, cheeses, seafood and palm leaf plates and more you are guaranteed to find exactly what you are looking for. Make sure you bookmark their site so that you know where to go for your next family reunion, graduation party or any other event or occasion that you need to plan. No lugging groceries home from the market. You can find everything that you need at Marx Foods and have it delivered right to your front door. 


Marx Foods sent me a couple of their Palm Leaf  Disposable Plates to review. They are environmentally friendly and as durable as a regular plate. The best part is no washing dishes after wards. You can use these plates for a party or you can keep them handy around the house for cookouts, nights you don't feel like doing dishes or even for pasta Sunday.



9 1/2" diameter

These environmentally friendly hexagonal palm plates are made from a natural, renewable, and biodegradable raw material. Naturally discarded sheaths of the leaves of the Adaka palm tree, which in the course of its biological life cycle, dry, fall and regenerate, are collected. No trees are cut down. The palm sheaths are then cleaned in fresh spring water and molded into plates (read How Palm Plates are Made for more info). 
Palm leaf plates are leak proof and able to withstand hot and cold temperatures without getting soggy or flimsy.
Even though these are disposable plates, each durable piece is unique with an attractive wood pattern finish that fits into both rustic and elegant events.

Specifications
Each hexagonal plate is 9½" in diameter with a depth of 1”.

Price
 $33.50 per 25 pieces / $77.25 per 100 pieces



 6 1/2" x 9 1/2"

Eco-friendly, durable and stylish.

Specifications
Each rectangle plate is 6½" x 9½", with a depth of 1”

Price
$30.75 per 25 pieces / $68.95 per 100 pieces





My Thoughts
I was sent five Palm Leaf Hexagonal Plates and five Rectangular Palm Leaf Plates to test out. When I took them out of the package I was surprised at how thick and sturdy they look and feel their not flimsy at all. That was of course with nothing on them so I had the perfect test for them. The day they arrived I was making steak, asparagus and mashed potatoes which are all juicy, moist and heavy foods that can't be eaten on your average disposable plate. I made our dinner plates up on the hexagonal plates and carried them to the table as I would a regular plate and then didn't bend of beau at all. The next thing I was curious about was cutting the steak because I thought that it may cut through the plate and if not at least tear it so that it would start to fall apart . I cut piece after piece and no rips, tears anything and because the steak was juicy and everything else on my plate it was moist at the time too and still was able to withstand everything. We had not one drip, leak, tear and my favorite part not one plate to wash because their disposable so I just threw them away.
These plates are disposable but you can reuse some of them at your own discretion. If you eat a big juicy steak on it you would obviously want to  throw it away but if you only have a sandwich or a few potato chips on it you can use it again later.
We tried the rectangular plates over the weekend for lunch with chips and sandwiches and when we were done they looked the same as they did before we started so I decided to wipe them off with a  damp dish rag and we will use them again.
I would definitely consider these plates for our next family get together because they work better than any plastic or Styrofoam plate that I have ever used before. Plus their eco-friendly so their an environmentally friendly option. As far as the price their cost more than other plates of this type but they also work ten times better and would look much better set up on a table at a reception than a pile of styrofoam plates.
Marx foods has several other plates sizes as well as utensils that you can use for dining, party, restaurant supplies and of course they have all the meats, seafood and everything else to make your dinner a success.
