Graze: Nibble Box Unboxing
I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to try out the nibble box from a subscription company called, "Graze". I can't wait to dig in, but first I have to share the snacks with the family and the photos with y'all. Everything in the box wasn't a surprise to me because I narrowed down my options to the snacks I was willing to try out.
The packaging looked beautiful and the snacks looked even better.
Inside my personalized card was more information about Graze and how things work. There was also information about my "friend code" (a code to use to refer my friends to try out Graze).
Graze was very creative to put the nutritional facts on the back of my little card. That was a nice surprise.
I just love the individual packaging. It makes for a great snack on the go. I received chili and honey almonds, Seedsational, cracking black peppercorn, and Japanese Nori crackers.

Another personal touch I liked was the picture of grass underneath each container. Lovely, I just might end up subscribing monthly.
If any of y'all would like to try a box for free, use the code: KYISHA7LP. You'll receive your first and fifth box free!
Rose VoxBox 2013
Just got back from drill weekend and I didn't expect to see my Rose VoxBox waiting for me. It was a nice surprise. I had some fun looking through all the goodies I received. I will definitely end up using everything in here or giving some of the things away to people I know who needs it more than I do.
There was a nice mix of beauty products and snacks.
There was a little card with every item listed on the back. It had a little tear in it.
Dr. Scholl's For Her Cozy Cushions: $12.49. My mom will love these.
BelVita crunchy breakfast biscuits: $3.69 for a box of 5 packets of 4 biscuits. I ate these for a snack and I was in heaven. Love these.
Rimmel London Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara: $5.99.
Lindt Lindor Milk Chocolate Truffles: $3.99 for a 5.1 oz bag.
Kiss Graduation Polishes: $6.99. Can't wait to try this to see if mine looks just like the picture.
I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
An Afternoon Out With The Family
It was an unexpected surprise that my youngest brother had planned an afternoon out with the whole family. We don't get out as much as most people, but we plan to remedy that soon. We do like spending time together whenever we're all available.
We ended up going to Perkins and enjoyed ourselves while having a good time. We're usually a bunch of loud mouths when having fun together. I really cherish these small moments in life where there's always laughter and joy.
Speaking of that, the Minnesota State Fair is right around the corner. I'm excited to say that I'm going! Well my family and I, that is. We decided on a day that we're all available. I just can't wait to have fun and eat all that greasy, fatty, unhealthy fair food.
Below are some of the pictures taken today. There aren't that many.
My nephew playing tic tac toe with one of my brothers on his Galaxy Note.
One of my brothers.
My delicious Tangler burger.
My tasty fries.
My dad buttering up his biscuit.
More family members. I didn't take pictures of them all, just wanted the pictures of the food.
Ok, there's a funny story behind these cups. When you usually dine at a restaurant you can be sure they will have doggy bags available to you, but no-one ever asks if there are doggy cups. I brought this point up today and had the whole crew laughing. I wanted to ask the waitress if they offered such a thing because we had a whole pitcher of lemonade that I didn't want to waste. I guess she over heard my loud mouth and brought some out. I was shocked that they existed outside of my head. I had to take pictures as proof that there's such a thing as doggy cups.
My oldest brother holding the doggy cups. Aww.
A Week Of Raspberries And Wild Life
This week has been going by fast already. There's been plenty ups and downs and turnabouts, and it's only the middle of the week. This is like a filler post of photos of what's been going on around the house. From a bush of raspberries to a teenage deer makes for an interesting week so far.
Here's the deer that I caught in the back yard eating leaves off a tree.
We have so many wild animals coming and going in our back yard. There's a family of albino squirrels in the neighborhood, more deer, regular squirrels, raccoon, spiders, exotic birds, the whole works. Its a lovely sight.
It's still eating.
It's startled because I started talking to it. My exact words, "Hey, Bambi!"
Bambi is trying to find the source of noise.
Bambi's running away because I was getting too close. Aw.
Look at him go.
These are the raspberries that my niece picked from our little raspberry bush.
Yum! Homemade raspberry jam is only one of the uses of raspberries I made.
Shortbread raspberry jam ribbons.
More ribbons.
Some kind of raspberry tart.
Raspberry shortbread cookies. So good.
More cookies.
The leftover jam. This will be good with toast.

4th of July was fun and full of family. I enjoyed the fact that I got just about everyone to pitch in and help with something. My niece and nephew were some of our main helpers, and I thank my nephew for taking these pictures for me.
The only mishap I think I had yesterday was when I was trying to cut the ham but ended up cutting myself a little bit. I don't know how it happened, but it did happen. Safe to say that I stayed away from that evil ham all day. Enjoy the photos and I hope y'all had just as great of a Independence Day as we did.
