Product Review: Clean Reserve H2EAU, Tom’s Deodorant, and Blue Lizard Sunscreen

April 28, 2024

Butterly has been spoiling me lately!  The team sent me, earlier this month, their Earth Month Package containing three products to review: Clean Reserve’s H2Eau rollerball perfume in Nectarine Petal, Tom’s of Maine’s Natural Deodorant in Rose Vanilla, and Blue Lizard’s SPF 50 sunscreen for sensitive skin. I have recently started posting follow-up reviews about… Read More Product Review: Clean Reserve H2EAU, Tom’s Deodorant, and Blue Lizard Sunscreen

Book Review Round-Up: January to June 2023, Part 2 – Memoirs

June 22, 2023
Sahar's Blog Header Monthly Book Review Round-Up

I have read many memoirs this year, and since many of the points that they bring up are the same, I decided to break away from tradition and, instead of a monthly round-up, do a memoir round-up. Celebrities and public figures lives in a realm of their own.  I don’t think they should, though, quite… Read More Book Review Round-Up: January to June 2023, Part 2 – Memoirs

Product Review: T-Fal Platinum Non-Stick Unlimited Collection, 26 cm Sauté Pan

May 30, 2023

I was thrilled last month to receive a pan free, courtesy of T-Fal and Influenster, in exchange for a review.  It’s been a rough winter, to put it mildly, in between dealing with a landlord who, shall we say, wouldn’t accept anything except what he wanted, which was against the law (but he insisted was… Read More Product Review: T-Fal Platinum Non-Stick Unlimited Collection, 26 cm Sauté Pan

Review of ‘Maame’, by Jessica George—Must Read Summary here. What an incredible read.  It was moving on so many levels, but ultimately uplifting.  At the age of 25, Maddie is the primary caregiver for her father, who has advanced Parkinson’s.  Her mother spends long periods of time in her native Ghana—and by long, I mean… Read More Book Review Round-Up: December 2022

Sahar's Blog Header Monthly Book Review Round-Up

It was a bit of a slow reading month, disappointingly enough.  We got sick so many times that I found myself running after all the essentials that I had to do.  If you are reading this in December 2022, I hope that the tripledemic hasn’t affected you and that if it has affected you or… Read More Book Review Round-Up: November 2022

Review of ‘I’m Glad My Mom Died’, by Jeanette McCurdy When I first heard of the title of this book, knowing nothing of Jeanette McCurdy, I wondered if it was a little clickbait-y, quite honestly. It absolutely is not.  I myself was quite happy when McCurdy’s mother passed.  And this, I think, sounds pretty bad,… Read More Book Review Round-Up: October 2022
