APRIL ALL*STARS - THINGS I'M LOVING RIGHT NOW


***Please note this is an old blog post. The original never posted so I am updating it now. 
 
      I have never been a tea drinker. As much as I have tried I can't get past the taste. For some people, like myself, we are glorified coffee drinkers and will always prefer it over tea. I have known this since I was about 5 years old and my Granny and I would have coffee and biscuits for breakfast. After that first sip of sugary sweet goodness, I was hooked on coffee! Yes, I love my coffee and on occasion I have been known to have the strong stuff pumped directly into my body.  LOL!

Then a friend introduced me to Starbucks Passion Tea Lemonade. This stuff is amazing! The taste is nothing like an original cup of tea; far from it to be honest. So I'm sure true tea drinkers will agree that this really can't be considered a "true" tea drink. In my opinion, I think it is actually Kool-aid trying to pass itself off as tea...

     This next item I received as a birthday gift from my family because my old phone, an original LG Rumor, would randomly quit working. Meaning, there were times when someone would call but the phone wouldn't ring, or it wouldn't hold a charge (yes, I changed out the battery), and it would randomly shut itself off and on (and no it wasn't because of updates either). Anyway, we all agreed that I definitely needed a new phone so they bought me this:




     Yes, they bought me the Motorola Droid and what an amazing deal we got at Best Buy too! We ended up paying about $50-$60 for the phone and I am amazed at what all it can do. This phone is so worth the money! Now, I'm sure a lot of you want to know "How did we get it so cheap?" Well, the first thing we had to do was switch service providers. This was no big deal because I had wanted to switch from Sprint for the longest time so this was a "no-brainer" for me. So we switched to Verizon, signed up for a two year plan and then Best Buy discounted the phone to $100. Now the next discount we received was because we are Silver reward zone members; which means we spend an ungodly amount of money there each year to qualify for this status. Anyway, one of the perks of the Silver status is that you receive special coupons with greater discounts, than you would if you had the regular membership, which are to be used on your purchases which we did and we had reward zone coupons too. So that folks is how you work the system in your favor!  (I will do a review about the features of the phone later!)

     This last item is not as glamorous as my phone but it is still adorable! It is the fit and fresh sets which are an easy and convenient way of storing your lunch.
These cute and adorable containers help to keep your foods cold and fresh with the removable ice packs that come with the set. They also have measurement markings on the sides that help you monitor your portion sizes without having to measure everything beforehand which is so nice! Portion control made easy!
