Fitsok – Athletic Socks {Review} Plus #Giveaway

Posted on March 16, 2016 | Filed Under: Fitness, Product Reviews | Tags: athletic socks, Fitsok, Performance Socks, running socks | 20 Comments

Not all socks are created equal. When I ran my very first 5k, I wore basic white athletic socks. As I started running more 5ks & then later graduated to doing 10k races, I began to develop plantar fasciitis. After consulting with fellow runners & even a podiatrist, I started investing in a few items: KT Tape, knee high compression socks, running shoe insoles & now my latest addition - performance socks made by Fitsok. Admittedly … [Read more...]

One of the things my family loves to eat while watching a movie is popcorn. You've heard the phrase "Netflix & chill" but in our house we throw on a DVD, break out the popcorn & chill!

Posted on December 28, 2015 | Filed Under: Product Reviews | Tags: First Aid Shot Therapy, hangover relief, heartburn relief, pain relief | 10 Comments

The following post is sponsored by First Aid Shot Therapy. All opinions are 100% my own. We are smack–dab in the middle of cold & flu season, not to mention prime-time holiday festivities and binge eating fests that can trigger heartburn. However before you reach for the aspirin or that turquoise blue bottle with the name that rhymes with "Atlanta," you'll want to read about F.A.S.T. which is also known as First Aid Shot … [Read more...]

#LightFeelsRight with Bzees

Posted on December 16, 2015 | Filed Under: Product Reviews | Tags: Bzees, easy to wash shoe, free foam footbeds | 2 Comments

You may recall that I have issues with my feet, which I've described in this blog. Apparently the apple doesn't fall far from the tree since my mom has foot problems too. Having worn heels much of her early adult life, it created bunions & she even had surgery to remove them. So now comfort is key for my mom when it comes to footwear. However my mom doesn't want to necessarily sacrifice fashion for comfort. Fortunately there is … [Read more...]

Regarding the holidays, I have plastic containers for wrapping paper, … [Read more...]
