Keurig 2.0

#HelloKeurig

I received the new Keurig 2.0 from Influenster and I must say that it has to be the best coffee maker out there.

I love the idea of having a water reservoir so that I do not that I do not have to refill it every time I want to make a cup of coffee.

There are multiple cup sizes and also the option of making a carafe.  There is also an option for brew strength.

The Keurig has come up in the world of technology by having a touch screen display! You can change the background on the display as well as changing the light color in the water reservoir. You also have the ability to have it automatically turn on and off so that it is already warmed up by the time you wake up. One less thing to worry about for those busy mornings.

I've only found two downfalls. The first is that the flow is inconsistent which causes a little bit more splattering than the other models. I did notice that it got somewhat better after using it a couple of times. The other downfall is that you can only use Keurig brand kcups. I had a few other brands (some that even had the Keurig label on it) but this smart Keurig 2.0 recognizes that they are not Keurig brands and will not brew them.

Other than those two things, I look forward to brewing some good coffee!

Go VoxBox


This Influenster Go VoxBox contained a lot of goodies. I really enjoyed my blueberry flavored almonds. After trying them, I had to go back to the store and by some more. I decided to by the strawberry flavored ones which were delicious as well.

The Muller yogurt was really good. After getting my first one free, I had to go back and get 5 more. I am not a big fan of greek yogurt but theirs is very good.

The Pro-Foot pedi rock did a really great job. Left my feet feeling smooth.

There were other items including in the box but these three were my favorite.

Yogurt...for the hair?

We all know that yogurt can make a delicious snack or dessert. But did you know that you can also use it in your hair? Yes that's right, your hair. It is very beneficial to your hair. Yogurt can be used as a base for deep conditioner. It promotes hair growth. Also if you use it, you will find that it is a lot easier to comb through your hair. The first time I used it, I had no problem combing through my hair (and I have natural African American hair). I did not have the problem of my hair tangling up and getting knots in it. Yogurt also prevents your hair from getting frizzy. These are only a few of the benefits that yogurt provides for your hair.

How to use: After washing my hair, I mix yogurt, olive oil, and honey together in a bowl (yes, all 3 ingredients are beneficial to your hair). I then apply the mixture to wet hair. Let sit on hair for at least 15 minutes. Then wash out. That's it!

Only use plain yogurt or plain Greek yogurt.

There are many other "recipes" and instructions out on the internet.
