Coosh [Apple MFi Certified] Lightning to USB Cable 3ft / 1m for iPhone (Black) Review

Not available until March but I am glad I was able to give this a whirl before many others. One thing my girls burn through more then anything else is their sync/charge cable for their Apple products. Matter of fact mine has already disappeared and of course no one touched it. Since mine has always been in the same place to charge someone touched it but no one is giving up who did it.

From now on we are going to put names on the cords, hoping that will help. What is great about the Coosh sync/ charge cable with lightning connector, is that it is Apple certified so there won't be any problems using it with your devices. This is a one meter cord which is a smidge over 3 feet. Plenty of room for most people to be able to use with their iPhone, iPad, or iPod.

In March you will be able to purchase this on Amazon.

The Hunt Review

MarksvilleandMe reviews The Hunt

written by Sophia Grace

Anyone who knows me should know by now that my favorite Genre of story is from the Holocaust or World War II. From page one The Hunt was a page turner, which I read in one sitting in under an hour. Yes that good at least for me.

It is an easy read, and one a young adult could read with no problem. If they can read Holocaust Biographies then they can handle this book. Frank is a man who had an ordinary life until one day while at a coffee shop he hears a conversation that will change his life. Full of secrets, underground groups, mystery, and death, this book will keep you reading.

You can purchase the Hunt on Amazon.

I don't have oily skin so I only use blotting papers for lip products.Plus I can have a box in my purse and it doesn't take up much room. These are my new make up bag must have.

Do you have a use for blotting papers?

Credit Card-Sized External Battery Charger Review

Besides the external battery charger sticks out there this has to be the smallest I have ever seen so far. This is really nice as it fits right into your wallet if you are a female, or in your pocket if you are a male. I like that is comes with a spot that holds everything nice and neat, including the apple lightning adapter.

This is one I can have in my purse for those just in case times, we try to check on our chargers at least once a week to make sure they are powered up. Great for power outages, vacations, or when you can't get to a electrical socket to charge your device.

You can purchase the Power Theory Credit Card-Sized External Battery Charger here or on Amazon.

What Power Theory has to say about their product.
Power Theory® Credit Card-Sized 2500mAh Portable Charger External Battery Pack with built-in USB & Apple® Lightning Cable. The PowerCard is a Lightweight Backup Phone Power Bank That Fits in a Pocket or Wallet and Works Great for iPhone 5/6, Samsung Galaxy, HTC, Nexus and More.

THE POWERCARD - A PERFECT COMBINATION OF POWER, SIZE & WEIGHT. Many products claim to be "the world's thinnest, lightest power bank". Usually that just means they don't have enough juice to actually charge your phone enough to use it. If you compare our ratio of weight (60g/2.1oz), to compact size (3.75 x 2.4 x 1/4 inches) to powerful charge (2500 mAh Real Capacity) you will not find a better external battery charger for emergency situations or those days where you need a little extra power.

NO MORE FUSSING AROUND IN YOUR BAG FOR ANNOYING CHARGING CABLES. A portable battery charger is not really portable if you have to also carry the cables that easily break or tangle. Our smartly designed external power bank has a built-in Micro USB and Apple Lightning Cable meaning you have everything need to charge your phone when you need it the most.

NEVER RUN OUT OF BATTERY POWER AGAIN. External battery packs are a great idea in theory, but we found that we never seemed to have them on hand when we needed them the most. To solve this we designed the PowerCard. Our lightweight design means you can always carry the charger with you whether you are out on business, travel or at a restaurant. Our A+ Li-Polymer battery cell (2500 mAh) means that you can depend on the PowerCard to fully charge almost all smartphones.

Baby Month Stickers Review

When ever there is a baby you think what kind of theme do I want to do for this one, or if it is your first and you want to have several children you might be thinking about one theme that you can use for either a boy or girl. With i custom label you can do just that. Each of my children had a different theme and a different baby book. With i custom label you can take your Baby Book, Scrap Book, Pictures, etc to the next level.

You can choose from many of their designs or you can design your own. I so wish this was around when I was having little ones, but thankfully I am now in the grand mother phase and can look forward to doing it all over again. Two grand daughters down and God only knows how many more grand children I will be blessed with.

In case you really like these and you are looking for other things to go along with this theme check out my review of Bobee here. They make wall clings like the one shown above. They go almost perfectly with the i custom labels available.
