A post of reviews!

First off.  If I have not convinced you to read this yet, you must Nella’s story.  It is hands down the most touching story I have ever read.  If you are a mother, even better. 

Grab a tissue, close the door, turn up the sound (the music makes it even better)  I don’t ask you to do much, but I am asking you to read this, it will change your life! :)

Ok onto the reviews! 

Remember awhile ago with Mighty Leaf tea’s sent me a whole wack of samples… 
the tropical green tea was my favourite…
until now…

I love mint tea, but this flavour was out of this world! 
It’s super sweet and minty – amazing totally worth the price, best mint tea I have had hands down!
PS. Remember you can order their teas online here!

Ok.. next review! 

The lovely folks at GO GOOD sent met about $50 worth of coupons the other day! 
I was sooooo excited as I LOVE their products! 

When I became dairy free my first thought was “NO MORE ICE CREAM”
I’m pretty sure I HEARD my heart break and shatter into a million pieces – as a life with no ice cream, is a life not worth living!  I kid, I kid, but let’s be honest, it would be pretty sad!

Enter So Good  Butterscotch Swirl…

A M A Z I N G on so may levels.

Not too bad really?! 

And then (da da daaaaaaaaaa) there is the butterscotch…

that swirl is truly one of the wonders of this world (well a dairy free world at least)

This ice cream is amazing.  All of their flavours are amazing.

I hardly notice a difference from regular ice cream,
even the price (around $6) isn’t too bad!  11/10 in my humble opinion! :)
Even if you are not dairy free, but ice cream upsets your stomach, give this a try,
I’m sure you will loveeeeee it!! :)

While I try to not have too much soy intake in my life
I have spend the week with a spoon, freezer open eating soy ice cream like a mad women.

I tried out one of SO GOOD’s (So good and so nice are the same company) other products!

I have to be honest, I was sceptical, because over Christmas I tested out SO NICE Egg Nog, and I ended up returning it to the store because it was so bad tasting (I’m pretty sure it had gone bad)

Stats…
Not the best pic sorry…

I have to say I really enjoyed this stuff.  It tastes like a starbucks drink a bit watered down (which is good in my opinion as starbucks drinks are SOOO sweet). 

I tested it out hot and cold and enjoyed both.  

I give it about a 8/10. 
That being said, I don’t think I would buy it again, only because I’m a water/tea drinker, with the occasional almond milk mixed in, and don’t feel a need for another sweetish drink, but for a special occasion for sure!

Well there you go! 
My reviews for the day, I hope you enjoyed and I hope that you test these products out for yourself, their website is super fantastic too!!  Check it out!

I will be hosting a (RAW) giveaway in the next few days, so keep your eyes peeled!! :)
