Nescafe Dolce Gusto

If like me, you enjoy coffee with your holiday partying, I highly recommend this single serve automatic espresso and cappuccino machine.

Its clean, quick and automatic and the drinks taste fantastic, dare I say it, Better than Starbucks!!

Athough I don't have a Keurig, I believe its kind of like a Keurig, but it makes espressos and cappucinos and lattes, instead of regular coffee.  It's a party!

I’m going to be honest.  The packaging is probably very wasteful (although I am putting it in my recycling bin, fingers crossed) and who knows what lies in those little cups…but it’s one of those times, you just don’t care.

In fact the whole system has plenty of downfalls:  you can only order the machine and coffee cups online, you have to pay shipping, it’s no cheaper than Starbucks…but one sip, and all that fades away.  Not to mention the good caffeine buzz that goes with it.  And you are at home!  Not in line at Starbucks!   A Holiday Must!

SLEEP by Aquarius Flower Remedies

I was repping for Aquarius Flower Remedies about a year ago and could not get anybody interested in SLEEP, which is a homeopathic sleep aid.   I figured it was probably me (bad salesman, not that many friends), but I also inadvertently lost a bit of faith in the actual product.

Well, three nights ago I was very wired (see previous product review) and heading to bed and an early morning and I thought Aha!  I am going to take some drops of Sleep.

It’s amazing stuff!!!  I’m sleeping so well.  I was repping for the company because I had liked other products of theirs.   But I had not taken Sleep that many times, because sleep is not something I struggle with.

But I’ve  taken it for the last three nights and even my usual good sleep is better.  I feel amazingly rested and peaceful when I wake up.  And also completely clear.  There is no hangover.

Sleep is made of flower essences, which are probably the most natural thing you can take.  I have no idea if flower essences affect everyone equally or if diets and other habits and even genetics factor in.  But I definitely have a positive experience with flower essences.  Very, very positive.  You can take them for any kind of ailment, from emotional to physical to spiritual.

Simon, the owner of Aquarius Flower Remedies, gave me a small sample of "Radiant" skin cream back when I was trying to work for him.  I was just kind of using it, unthinkingly, on my face, after my bath at night.  La de da.  Then one morning, I was like my goodness, my face looks good.  

BTW,  I am no longer repping for the company.  I’m not even in touch with them.  So I am writing this review for you.  If you think you might respond positively to flower essences or they might be something you are interested in, go to Simon’s site.  Aquarius Flower Remedies.

Five Stars!!!
