App recommendation



I saw this upcoming app on the iPhone on my timeline on my suggested app on Facebook. To be quiet honest I'm glad I peeked at it and downloaded it because it seemed real interesting. The app is called yerdle and basically you bid on used items people post they no longer want or need. It's like a virtual yard sale and who doesn't like yard sales??!! I know I love great finds and so I had won already four items and have posted a few things that I have even given. Once people place bids and win the item the points get added to you points that you already get for joining. So every time you post you post how many points you want for the item to receive for it and then they pay for shipping. When you bid on stuff it's just like eBay. So be on the lookout because some times people have a get it now for certain amount of points and some people just post to see who can win the highest bids to the max days you can bid on items etc. It's really near and only on iPhone. 

These are the items I snagged via yerdle so far. Let me know if you download it!

Macarons Review

Macarons are so popular and I just needed to see what the craze was about. A friend of mine has a wonderful lil baking design business and she had a taste sample box for sale so I snagged those up with the order I placed for my birthday. Once I ate one i just couldn't stop eating them. I didn't think I would enjoy the other flavors because I'm such a die hard chocolate fan but my favorite one is the Pina Colada! They were beyond perfect to me and by far the best lil cookies I have ever had. Each of my kids even had one and let me tell you they are cookie monsters! Husband was super impressed as well and was like oh man those are so good, she did a good job! So if anyone wants to place an order or even check out her wonderfully designed cakes head over to her site! http://ccxcd.com/ Please make sure you said Vanessa from four times blessed sent ya!




the chocolate one was my first victim :)


Being able to help other small business is something I would love to do even more often then not. Just wish more would be willing to let me help them.

On a brighter not those macarons made my day. Thanks Crystal! Keep on baking!
