Cake In A Can

Cake In A Can

Howdy!! Johnny and I have been on a sparkling water kick for a while now and we really enjoy testing out different brands and flavors. My Top Three are Orange & Vanilla by Polar, Peach Bellini by Bubly, and Fruit Punch by Waterloo. Johnny, on the other hand, is fondest of the Pino Colada by Waterloo. Out of all of the popular brands, the one we don’t drink too frequently is La Croix. After this week, however, we experienced a major game changer because we are obsessed with their Limoncello sparkling water!

The only time I have had real Limoncello was years ago and I thought it tasted just like lemonade. I was expecting a lemony flavor during the taste test of the La Croix rendition and my thoughts were confirmed when it smelled exactly like Mr. Clean lol. You can imagine my surprise when I took my first sip and it didn’t taste anything like lemon at all. In fact, it didn’t taste like any type of beverage I have ever had before. Johnny described the flavor as “cake” and I truly can’t think of a better way to say it!

The La Croix Limoncello has a really full bodied vanilla flavor. It seriously tastes like drinking ice cream! If you are not a fan of vanilla, you are going to hate it. If you’re like me and can’t get enough of vanilla flavor, you are in for a huge treat. I have been looking forward to cracking open a La Croix after work every day for the past week and my deepest regret is that we drank the last one yesterday. This flavor has flipped my original Top Three on its head and has skyrocketed into the lead as the best sparkling water I have ever had. I cannot recommend it enough. 😀

Love sparkling water? Love vanilla? You simply HAVE to try the La Croix Limoncello. You will thank me later!!!

Are you a sparkling water fan? What is your favorite brand and flavor? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Bath & Body Works August Freebie

Hey everyone and happy Monday! So I know I just recently wrote about my July Bath & Body Works Freebie but they have been hooking it up with their coupons lately so I already got to cash in on two free products for the month of August. I received another free full sized item coupon as well as a free travel sized product and I was eager to put them to good use! Take a look at my freebie picks for this month and then let’s discuss:

As you guys already know, Love & Sunshine is one of my B&BW favorites. Since I have wrote about it so frequently before, I don’t plan on saying anything else about it other than that it’s fabulous! Instead, I’m here today to talk about the deliciousness that is their Summer Marshmallow scent from their Beach Nights collection. I decided on this scent on a whim and I am so glad I did because I am simply gaga over it.

While browsing the beautiful, newly remodeled B&BW in my area, I thought I knew what I wanted for my free full sized item. I planned on going for their Limoncello lotion because last month I was debating on getting it but settled for a full sized Pretty As A Peach cream instead. I had the bottle of Limoncello lotion in hand and decided to spend a few more minutes perusing the store to get an idea of what scent I want for next month’s freebie.

This is when I stumbled on the Summer Marshmallow fragrance. As soon as I read the label, I immediately thought to myself, “ew”. I hate marshmallows so I made the assumption that this lotion was going to smell nasty. WRONG. I took one whiff of Summer Marshmallow and instantly put the Limoncello lotion back to its proper place on the shelf. This. Lotion. Smelled. AMAZING!

The Summer Marshmallow cream smelled nothing like the sugary scent that I had in mind, thank god! This lotion smelled like toasted vanilla, the salty ocean breeze, and a campfire that is lightly smoldering after a huge bonfire. All you had to do was take one sniff of the fragrance and you could tell exactly what they were trying to do with this scent. B&BW created the aroma of an ideal Beach Night in a bottle. A night under the stars, with a warm and gooey s’more in hand, and the ocean waves lapping in the distance. It is just perfect.

Normally, I never go for a scent like what I described (even though I made it sound delicious!) because I am such a lover of fruity fragrances. But obviously, B&BW’s Summer Marshmallow is the exception. I one hundred and fifty percent recommend this fragrance to everyone. If you are in need of ideas for future presents, I suggest making a gift basket with this Bath & Body Works fragrance along with all of the fixings to make a fresh batch of s’mores.

You can shop the Beach Nights collection in stores and online, just make sure to include your email address so you can snag Bath & Body Works freebie coupons, too! What is your favorite B&BW scent? What is your must have summer fragrance? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah
