Here is what I received yesterday.

The box is huge and was waiting for me when I got home from work. Thank goodness there is a foam container and Ice packs in the box, because I didn't get home till late last night.


I ordered the Korean-Style Short Ribs with Asian Slaw and Sushi Rice, here is the recipe card that was inside the box.

Yummy, seeing that I am Half Korean, I wonder why I picked this item...lol
The Korean-Style Short Ribs with Asian Slaw and Sushi Rice was in for a world of hurt on my review if I did not like it!

The items were separated into different bags for the vegetable and meats.

I have tried Hello Fresh before, and this is similar, except they have a bit more variety on their recipes. Also, Plated ships every week and you have to either pay $10 per month for a membership or pay higher plate costs. You can however, cancel whenever you want!


I had my husband cook this order, because I wanted to see how easy it was for someone who had absolutely no clue of what to do in the kitchen (laughing hilariously).
The only problem I found is that he smoked us out of the house with this recipe, due to pan frying the ribs. However, the ribs tasted marvelous. I did not really care for the slaw or rice (and I love me some rice).
All in all, it was a great experience. I think watching my husband follow the recipe card and act like he was a full blown chef was the most exciting and humorous part of the experience; however, the food was pretty good.

Nature Box November 2013 and Coupon Code

Nature Box

Cost: $19.95 (shipping included) and up 

Save $10 off your Nature Box Subscription Get 50% OFF by using coupon code SHARE10

What is Nature Box?

With all the snack boxes we have seen this week, we have to ask ourselves... what makes this one so different?

Well, Nature Box does not send a small and unappealing handful of tiny morsel's, but they send Full Size packages of snacks.

According to Nature Box:

NatureBox helps you eat healthier without needing to change your eating habits. We focus on snacks because that’s the easiest habit to change. Do you know that the average American eats almost 25% of their calories from snacking? In fact, snacking is the leading cause of childhood obesity. NatureBox helps you get more out of your day without wasting calories on the bad stuff.

I purchased their Nature Box Deluxe Package (normally $19.95), which I was lucky enough to receive the $10 coupon. So my first order is just $9.95 (shipping included).

The only reason I was truly enticed to pick up one of these subscriptions is because of the 5 Full sized packages I would receive.

You are able to complete a profile and then select which items/recipes you want to try!

Here is what I chose:

Baked Sweet Potato Fries

(Sounded fantastic, so why not try it)

French Toast Granola

(I adore a bit of granola in my yogurt, so why not flavored granola in plain yogurt)

Harvest Nut Mix

(As I mentioned in past post's, I do Christmas baskets for my family and seeing the my father loves this stuff I couldn't resist the savings... yup.. this will be in his basket)

Lemon Meringue Waffles

(Another item for my families Christmas Basket. I know the perfect someone who loves lemon meringue!)

Sunny Trails

(My father just love's this stuff...got another one for his basket)

I placed my order on the 17th of November and it appears to be processed on the 19th for Departure. I'm thinking It will get here by next week sometime.

Stitch Fix November 2013

Cost:$20 Styling Fee (used as a credit off your purchase)

What is Stitch Fix?

Stitch Fix is a personal styling service. You tell us your style, size, and budget preferences, and we send you a package of stylish goodies to try on at home. Each Fix™ is unique and hand-picked just for you.

How Does it Work?

1. Sign Up and Complete Your Style Profile

1. After signing up you can start immediately on your Style Profile. We need to know your size, shape, style, budget, and lifestyle to get your Fix right. The Style Profile will take about 10 minutes to complete.

2. Schedule a Stitch Fix

1. Pick a shipment date, and we’ll send you a box of 5 clothing and accessory items we’ve hand-picked just for you. You can even opt to schedule a monthly delivery if you'd like.
2. You pay a $20 styling fee when your stylist selects the items in your Stitch Fix. This $20 fee will be applied as a credit toward anything you keep from your shipment.

3. Try On All Of Your Items

1. Try on everything we send you—you never know what you’ll like until you see it on. Pair each piece with items already in your closet to try different outfit options. Each item includes style cards with ideas and inspiration on how to wear it.

4. Decide

1. Take 3 days to decide what you’ll keep. Return the items you don't want in our pre-paid mailing bag at any USPS mailbox.

5. Check Out

1. Login to your account and pay for those items you kept. If you buy all 5 items you save 25% off the entire shipment price.
2. Don't forget to give us feedback on your Stitch Fix shipment—our secret (styling) sauce gets better over time if we know what did and didn’t work for you.

Why would you try Stitch Fix?

If you are like me, I love being able to try new things and have a wardrobe out of this world. Stitch Fix  will have their stylist take the hassle out of trying on new clothing at the store of the latest styles. 

Stitch Fix will send you clothing items to your home and you are able to send back anything you do not want... how good is that!

You can set your Stitch Fix profile to set price points (mine is on Cheap...lol). Give it a try, the profile is free.... set an appointment time....then have fun trying on new stuff and send back what you don't want!

Graze November 2013 and Promo Code

Graze get your 1st and 5th Box Free, for Offer Click Here

What is it?

It's is Nature in a box... no... not really... it is a mix of colorful and yummy healthy snacks that put a new twist on "snack food".

It’s not just the unique combinations and flavors that make our snacks great, it's our dedication to find the highest quality ingredients. Some people think that an almond is just an almond, but once you’ve tried our Californian almonds with our sweet yet spicy salsa mesquite seasoning, you’ll never look at an almond in the same way again.

Cost: $6 every two weeks or move subscription to every 4 weeks

Chose Between the:

Graze Light Box - Low Calorie Snacking

or

Graze Nibble Box - Still Natural but a lot more selections

  

Here is a list of the snacks that came in the box.

vanilla cherry frangipane

veggie sushi plate

black pepper pistachios

super berry detox

I chose the Graze Nibble Box and as you see above, I received several different varieties.

Why would I buy this?

Simple, it's that time of the year to gradually cut back.

To be honest, my daughter has a bit of a snack problem (inherited from her mom), so I wanted to see if this would be a good change for her. I also was thinking about gifting it to my dad, because instead of meals, he lives off of snacks just like these (weird old fellow... but I love him).

If you are worried about calorie intake the Nutritional Information (see below) is included and every container is vacuum sealed into its cute little portion sized container.

The favorite thing I love about this subscription is that the price is great (you can skip, cancel, or just let the $6 every two weeks run) and the creativity in making the product (pop out container's... yay!).

Calling all mom's.... If you need a snack to toss in your purse, these little natural containers pop out and remain sealed until you open them. You can definitely eat on the run!

The One Missing was the Vanilla Cherry Frangipane, my daughter couldn't wait to try it.

vanilla cherry frangipane

This Graze  snack had a mix of Cherries, Almonds in a light vanilla mix, vanilla pumpkin, and vanilla sunflower seeds. It was awesome... my daughter ate every kernel and seed.

This is one subscription I will definitely keep!
