Ro Made It!

**If you previously entered this giveaway, please enter again! I had technical difficulties with the previous form.** This product was sent to me right on time. I've never had a glass cooktop stove. My method of cleaning is to wipe what I can and search Pinterest later for ways to get it really clean. So far I haven't done the latter lol. Soft Scrub sent me their latest product to review. Soft Scrub Advanced Surface. This product was formulated for your most delicate surfaces...granite and marble countertops, glass cooktops, and stainless steel. It comes in a rinse-free gel that you apply and just wipe away with a damp cloth or sponge. Well, this is my cooktop before. And of course I let it get this grungy (is that how you spell that?) just so I could review this product! Don't judge me! LOL I read the instructions and applied the product. It says for tough stains, let it penetrate for up to one minute...I felt like mine needed more than a minute, but I wasn&

I'm still dreaming of being on a tropical island... If you previously entered this giveaway, please enter again. I had technical difficulties with the previous entries. Purex has launched a new fragrance to it's Natural Elements Brand. Tropical Splash is the new fragrance. It still has an amazing scent, but the scent in the Natural Elements line comes from naturally sourced ingredients. This detergent is Hypoallergenic...great for people with sensitive skin, like me. And it packs a mean cleaning punch. I used this detergent on my whites (without an addition of bleach) and it cleaned them just as well. I didn't take a picture of the clothes because they were mostly unmentionables :). The scent is that of exotic fruit and flowers. Very pleasant on the nose. At first I thought I didn't like the smell...but as it turns out my pregnant nose was picking up on mop water that was on the other side of the laundry room!  In conjunction with this giveaway, Pure

**If you previously entered this giveaway, please enter again! I had technical difficulties with the previous form.** Ok guys, please don't hate me! The past week has been a struggle! I planned to have these posts done on Monday...and now it's Friday. Today has started off rocky in RoJo's world but I'm pushing through it. Thank heavens for the staff at Richland Library Sandhills! I currently have no cable or internet at home so I'm shacking with them so I can get some blogging done :-) And now for my review of Purex with Crystals. So this laundry detergent has Fabric Softener with the Purex Crystals fragrance. What did I think about it? It cleans as well as I expect Purex to clean...which I have said before, this is my preferred laundry detergent because it does not irritate my skin like some other big name brands. And it's super affordable. The fragrance is pleasant. However, the fabric softener does not perform as well as what I usually use OR as w

That I've been keeping a secret! For those of you that are my Facebook friends, I revealed this secret to you on this past Tuesday. It's only fair that I share it with the rest of you! I know I have been slack (for lack of a better word) in my blogging for er...a good little while. Well it hasn't been just because I've fallen off. I. Am. Pregnant !! Insert jumps for joy here! I didn't want to spill the beans too soon. Despite my tongue-clipping  best efforts, my family managed to spread the news before I could even share in my own little way. Why did I hold this in? Nothing is guaranteed. This being my first pregnancy, I didn't know what to expect and what would/could happen. But I am very happy to announce that so far so good! I am about to hit 20 weeks (and man they have been 20 loonnng weeks). Life is full of so many uncertainties. And while this was not planned ...it has made me experience love on a level that I didn't even know existed! I hope an

And a GIVEAWAY!! You guys remember me telling you how I had the whole fiasco of me "losing" my bag on the way to Houston for All Star Weekend right? If you don't, you can read about it here . Well, during that whole f*ed up situation, I had to RUN. And yes I know everybody is on this whole "Black Girls Run" thing...but I don't! I know it is good for me but I seriously swore it off when I left the US Army. For reals. But anywho, so of course by the time I reach my seat on the plane, luckily it was changed from 25C to 13C ( I honestly don't think I would have made it to the back of the plane without collapsing) I was drenched in sweat. But not from my underarms! Overshare I know, but this all has a point! I was wearing Dry Idea's New AdvanceDry Fresh deodorant. As a person who doesn't even remember the last time I worked out, I do remember that for me, some deodorants just do not work. I'm not much of a fan of roll ons, but since I wa
