5 Stars: ORBLUE Fine Mesh Nut Milk Food Strainer Bag

I bought the ORBLUE Fine Mesh Nut Milk Food Strainer Bag from Amazon to use in cheese making.  I received this bag at a discount for my honest review.  I am under no obligation to review this product positively or negatively.

I started making cheeses of all sorts about 3 years ago.  I have always loved cheese and figured why not try to make my own.  It fit in well with my goal of living a DIY life.  My favorite cheeses to make are cheddar and cream cheese.  I bought this strainer back to drain the whey from my cheese during the first steps on the making process.  Before this bag, I used cheese cloth.  Cheese cloth worked okay, but it was just a large rectangle of fabric with large holes.  I had to fold the cloth over twice and be very careful about tying it up so the cheese wouldn't fall out into the sink when I left it to drain overnight.  

 This bag is a perfect replacement and works so much better.  The bag has a much finer mesh than cheese cloth, but not so fine that the whey can't drain out.  


The bag is double-stitched so it can take the weight of the over 2 pounds of mixture that gets put in when I'm draining whey.  There is a drawstring on the top, so I can ensure that the bag is closed securely.


Like I said before, the bag holds a lot.  The bag measures 12 inches by 12 inches.

5 Stars: Boomile Solar String Lights 8 Modes 100LED 33ft Copper Wire Lights Waterproof Starry Fairy String Lights Ambiance Lighting for Outdoor Landscape Patio Garden Christmas Wedding (warm white)

I bought these lights to put in my yard so that there was light, but I didn't want extension cords across the yard.  These lights are about 30 feet long.  They are $10.99 on Amazon . The unlighted part of the power cord is about 80 inches long or almost 7 feet long.  This made is easy to run the lights up the tree trunk.   The lights have 8 different modes.  My favorite is the slow fade one.  Another nice feature is that the lights have a sensor to turn on when it gets dark and turn off when it gets light.  I don't have to go turn them on or off all the time.   These would also work great in the fairy light jars that are so popular right now and since they don't require being plugged in, the jar can sit anywhere there is ambient light to charge them. I received this product for free for my honest opinion.

I'm always looking for easy gift sets to give out at the last minute.  Like when I find out that tomorrow is a coworkers birthday and I forgot to get them a gift.  This shower gel and lotion set is perfect for that situation.  The set is $21.99 on amazon right now which is comparable to buying a set from Bath & Body. The set comes in a black organza bag so it is ready to give as a present.  Each bottle is 8 ounces. The shower gel is a nice thick consistency and has nice big bubbles.  It has a soft sweet scent that isn't overwhelming. The lotion has a smooth white texture and rubs in easily without an oily feeling.  It smells like flowers and grapefruit.  Like the gel, the scent is not overwhelming and very subtle. I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

5 Stars: Ovulation Test Strips and Pregnancy Test Kit - 50 LH and 20 HCG - OPK Ovulation Predictor Kit iProven FK-127

My husband and I have been trying to conceive (TTC) for over a year now.  This kit by iProven is a great "starter kit" for those trying to conceive.  Buying the tests at the store can start to get really expensive.  This kit is is $21.20 on Amazon right now.   This one has 50 ovulation prediction tests (OPKs) which can last a couple of months.  I usually use somewhere between 8 and 10 a month.  It also has 20 pregnancy tests which again should last a couple of month.  My usually on these is about 5 a month.   The pregnancy tests are blue dye tests which my doctor told me seem to be more accurate with less false positives than pink dye tests.  (This refers to the color of the dye that makes the lines on the test.)  It all also comes in a nice box to keep them organized.  Other brands I have bought came in envelopes of plastic bags. I have to say the best feature of this kit is the literature that is included.  One side of the literature talks about how the
