Are you into essential oils? Essential oils are a surprisingly natural way to boost your mood and have been to known to be an effective way of improving your overall wellness. Of course, the research is a bit fuzzy but if you are new into embracing the idea of using essential oils, here are a few ways that you can use essential oils in your everyday life

1) Essential oil diffuser.

This is the best way I've used essential oils. This is the diffuser that I have and have used for quite some time. It basically diffuses the scent in the air for you. You add a few drops of the oils into the water and the diffuser goes to work.

2) Add to steaming water.

IF you are not feeling well, you can add some essential oils to the steaming water. Make sure you place a towel over your head to hold in the steam as you lean over the watrer and breathe deeply. Be sure to only use one or two drops because the scent can be pretty potent.

3) Spray bottle.

I have used this method when cleaning the kitchen actually. I've added a couple of drops of lemon essential oil to water and sprayed down the counter to get rid of strong dinner smells that won't go away.

You'll Love the Hoboken Farms Pasta Sauce: Review & Giveaway

  I am such a huge fan of pasta! Anytime that is the main course, I'm a happy lady. However, making my own pasta sauce has never really been my thing. I know there are recipes out there. The truth is, though, there are also so many awesome jar sauces that I don't find a need to make my own. Recently, I had the chance to try out the Hoboken Farms pasta sauce. And wow! It's such a good experience. I can't wait to tell you about it. First of all, it has some major plusses right out of the gate: It is NON-GMO. That's a major factor for me, because I don't want genetically modified ingredients in my spaghetti. It's also low sodium and gluten-free. And another major perk, it's vegan! So it already has a lot of factors that make me like it right away. I had the chance to try their Marinara and Basil Marinara. What I love about both of these jars are the ingredients. You won't find anything weird about it. The marinara has just whole tomatoes, olive oil, oni

My Review of Nutty Novelties Nut Butters

  Does anyone else love nut butter as much as I do? It's such a healthy protein and great for breakfast or lunch, depending on how you like to enjoy yours.  Recently, I had the chance to try some by a brand called Nutty Novelties. I ended up choosing their simple blends, like Classic Peanut Butter, Pistachio Butter, Almond Butter, and Cashew Butter. I loved each jar and thought it was just simply delicious. However, they offer a ton of unique varieties that you don't want to miss out on. They have Honey Roasted Peanut Butter , Cinnamon Almond Butter , and  Dark Chocolate Almond Butter . That's only the beginning! They have a ton more jars, plus they're prices are really reasonable. Many of their jar's prices start at $4 a jar, making it a delicious and affordable price. The jars aren't very big but they go a long way because of how packed they are with flavor. What I really appreciate about this brand is that it's a small business and run by real people you
