Escali 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush Review


My husband was able to try out the Escali 100% Badger hair shaving brush. This is the first time he has used or owned a Hair Shaving brush so we are learning along the way. He did shave with it I think two or three times before he decided to grow his beard again, but Spring is coming so soon enough out will pop the Shavers and Shaving brush.

My husband loves how he doesn't have to worry about his hands getting messy anymore. He also loves how easy clean up is, a little rinse and then hang up or lay on it's side. He made a spot to hang his brush so that is how we do it, but you can lay it down on it's side as well.

I wonder if he will mind if I use it to put shaving cream on my legs?

You can purchase the Escali 100% Pure Badger Shaving Brush on Amazon.

Gold and Silver Flash Tattoos by Voodoo Tattoo Review + Giveaway



VooDoo Tattoo Giveaway 
Hosted by 
sponsored by 
Tattoos, seem to be growing in trends, but not everyone wants permanent tattoos. Some of us just want to wear them for fun and be done with them when the fun is over. Some of us just do not want to commit to a tattoo that we might not love the rest of our lives, or worse have regrets for getting in the first place.

I have seen some horrid tattoos over the years, from tattoos that look nothing like they should, misspelled tattoos, as well as tattoos that are vulgar, which make it hard to get a job. I am OK with tattoos, but I am not OK with tattoos being seen while someone is working, it is just the way I was raised and not what I want customers or clients seeing. 

My husband has one tattoo,  my son and his wife have several. In my son's job it doesn't matter if he has tattoos, and as for my daughter in law, as of yet I don't think she has had a job where it matters either. I know lots of people who work very close in the community and you would never know that their bodies are filled with tattoos, because during the day they are covered by their clothing. Kind of like a Superhero in their human form.  

For those of you like me who do not want to commit to a tattoo, or can't because of bleeding disorders, temporary tattoos are the way to go. VooDoo Tattoo has some great tattoos available you can see them above and below I have the set above. 

They are easy to apply and come off with a little cold cream, baby, oil, or rubbing alcohol. My children have all had temporary tattoos since they were little, even my grand daughters love them, they like them almost as much as stickers.


You can purchase these VooDoo Tatto's on Amazon

Leather Care Liniment is also 100% Made in USA! * Chamberlain's Leather Milk (Leather Care Liniment No. 1) is used on all Saddleback Leather Company's products before the items are shipped to their customers. * Here are a few leather care tips to keep in mind before using Leather Care Liniment: Read instructions fully before using. Leather Milk should not be consumed. Use carefully on unfinished leather. Not for use on suede. Test in a discreet area before using.

The Moon Was My Witness Review



MarksvilleandMe reviews
The Moon Was My Witness
the Jewish boy who sabotaged the SS commander's motorcycle
written by 
Abraham Levy

Having always said that stories, movies, etc about the Holocaust have been my favorite, I have changed my wording to fascination with the subject rather then favorite. Not sure if sounds better, but thought it fit better. 

Even though this book is called the Jewish boy who sabotaged the SS commander's motorcycle, I believe that the title "The Moon Was My Witness" fits much better. Don't get overly excited about a story revolving around the SS commander's motorcycle because that is a very small part in this book about Abraham's fight to live through the Holocaust. 

This will take you on a journey through his memories of his family, life as child, life in the camps during the Holocaust as well as a brief glimpse into his life 60 years after Liberation. What I find the same in most of the surviving camp Holocaust people is their will to survive from the very beginning. A force that kept them moving forward no matter how hard things got. 

I speak all of the time about how God gives me breath each day but the stories of the Holocaust survivors always reminds me that life can always be worse, the stories also give me hope and strength to continue on my own journey through life, no matter what is thrown my way. The suffering of those from the holocaust is a constant reminder of the strength of the humane soul

As with many books with this subject matter I read this in one sitting in only a few hours. A page turner for sure, filled with lots of information. The life the Holocaust victims and survivors has is something everyone needs to remember so that it will never happen again.

You can purchase "The Moon Was My Witness" on Amazon.
