Book Review

Simply a delightful read! My 11 year old and I chuckled quite a bit throughout the story. The illustrations were entertaining as was the story. My daughter loves basketball, so was immediately anxious to read the story. And Miss Priss, one busy 10 year old girl, didn't disappoint her. Judy Phillips did an amazing job with keeping the reader engaged and the illustrations by Brenda Nichols complimented the story.

My daughter and I highly recommend this story. Miss Priss: On and Off the Court is packed with lots of humor and plenty of kid growing moments.

Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time Review

Legends of Zelda Ocarina of Time

The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is one of the coolest instruments I've seen and played. I actually thought it was just a toy that I was going to be reviewing. But as I continued researching it, I learned that people actually take lessons to learn how to play an Ocarina.  

My 11 year old son helped me test the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. He's a huge Legends of Zelda fan, so was thrilled that I asked him to help me review it.

The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time instrument is made of high-quality, kiln-fired ceramic. It has 12 holes that allows you to play sounds ranging from A4-F6 including sharps and flats. 

My son and I have never played an instrument like this before. However, within minutes he was able to play notes.

My only concern with the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time is that it is made of ceramic. Every time my son picks it up and holds it, the first thought that runs through my mind is, "Please don't drop it." I can just see it shattering on the floor and tears flooding his eyes. Other than that, I highly recommend it, especially if you have a Legend of Zelda fan in your house.

Price is reasonable and seems to be discounted on Amazon, making it a great gift for kids. 

To order go to

Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time available on Amazon

I was given the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time for free without compensation for my honest opinion.

Paula's Choice Skincare Product Review and Get 20% Off

Get 20% off plus free shipping off your next order of Paula's Choice Skincare Products with coupon code: PRBZZ20, and build a skin care routine that’s right for you!

I love testing skincare products! Especially ones that can help reduce those fine lines. As a BzzAgent I had the opportunity to tryout Paula’s Choice Resist Hyaluronic Acid Booster. I received this product for free for my honest review.

Paula’s Choice Resist Hyaluronic Acid Booster is an anti-aging product with hyaluronic acid that binds with skin to hold in moisture and plump up those wrinkles while also hydrating your skin.

I used it for almost 4 weeks. I love the feeling of it when applying it to my skin. It came in a small trial sized bottle. The trial sized drop applicator didn't really work. The directions said to apply two drops directly to your face or mix it with any serum, moisturizer (without SPF) or eye cream. I wasn't able to easily get many drops out of the applicator so instead I smeared the outside of the drop applicator against my skin. 

Upon first use, my skin looked healthier and hydrated. I used it every day in the morning and evening, mixing it in with a moisturizer. I'm very impressed with how m y skin looks and feels. However, it took about 3 weeks of use for me to start noticing some of the fine lines fading. Nothing drastic, but I am noticing a difference.

Additional information about Paula's Choice Resist Hyaluronic Acid Booster:

• It can also be used before or after AHA or BHA exfoliants, retinol treatments and other anti-aging products. 
• The formula is suitable for all skin types — even breakout prone skin 
• Like all Paula’s Choice Skincare products, the ingredients in this formula are proven effective by published, scientific research 
• It’s also 100% fragrance- and colorant-free, with no added dyes or irritants
• Paula's Choice skincare products are never tested on animals
