Soda Stream Review


I never knew I could make my own soda at home and make sure it does not have preservatives or other bad things in it!!  Now with Soda Stream you can make delicious soda at home for a fraction of the price of buying it at a store.  :)  YAY!  I am also a fan of not using tons of cans or plastic that are bad for the environment so this is a really "green" system.  

Soda Stream also makes carbonated flavored water which is perfect for me because I try not to drink too much soda but adding a little flavor and fizz is great for me!  :) They also carry energy drinks, teas, Crystal Light, Lemonades, diet and regular sodas.  

Soda Stream is easy to use but it does take a little practice at getting the carbonation just right.  Also make sure you measure the syrup out and not guess or you might ruin a batch of soda.  I did a good job of measuring but I did end up tossing a couple batches because of the carbonation, one too little one too much.  

I was happy to have this system right in time for the 4th of July!  We had a party at our house and we made several drinks to share and everyone seemed to enjoy them.  

Soda stream has lots of fun recipes right one their site and I bet some of you could create your own too.  

Where can you find a Soda Stream?  You can buy online or several stores such as Sears, Staples, Bed Bath and Beyond, Target, Wal-Mart, Kohls, and many more!  


 Why buy and use Soda Stream?

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five words (sad, she, stay, this, with). The s

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week!  I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea  deodorant  that I had never used prior.  I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp???  Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening!  :)  I was dry and I did not stink!  :) WOOT WOOT!  I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future.  :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E.  :) Don't like roll on's??  They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid.  :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them.  However,
