Enjoy Some Coffee Fair Trade Style

Time for another BzzCampaign! If you're not familiar with BzzAgent, it's a website that allows you to take surveys and if you're the right fit for the study you may be chosen to participate. So far this is my third study, and I currently have another pending as well. I really enjoy doing these, mostly because I love free stuff! This time I was chosen to test out Green Mountain Coffee's new fair trade line.

Fair trade coffee is certified as having been produced and marketed to a states set of standards. In GM's case they are helping coffee farmers provide a better life for their families and communities. Two of the ways they are helping is by providing clean drinking water and building better roads in said communities. Kelly Clarkson has been chosen to be a part of this campaign, if you would like to learn more about it, click the link below.  You can also check out the varieties that fair trade comes in from GM.

I received three double packs of KCups to sample, all signed by Ms. Clarkson. I found the flavor to be very woodsy and strong. I guess the best way to describe it would be a heavily aromatic, robust regular cup of coffee. I definitely couldn't taste the "fair trade" difference.  They went quick though and I really enjoyed them. My samples for purpose of testing were provided in KCup form, but on the GM website you can purchase the Three Continent Blend, as well as, other varieties in the normal bag of grounds (Newman's Own is also available).

I don't think this coffee is anything to write home about, but I did enjoy my samples. I've included some codes for $2 off a 24 pack of KCups on the Green Mountain website. Also if you find yourself in the market for a Keurig or Vue machine, I have included two codes for 50% off at keurig.com. The code works on select varieties and is not for use on the uber fancy latte machines. You can go to Starbucks if you're jonesing that bad for one. All of that good stuff will be listed below. That's all for now!

The Selection Series by Kiera Cass

I don't think it's any surprise that I love meself some YA! I think I was introduced to a blurb about The Selection series in Newsweek ...kidding it was an issue of Seventeen I was reading at the Dentist? Whatever it doesn't matter, all you need to know is that its awesome! A Dystopian America that's now a smaller fragile absolute monarchy and has a caste system??? Uh yes please! The series (originally a trilogy) is narrated by America Singer, a 5 (there are 8 castes) who lives in post WW3 (could be WW4 I honestly don't remember) Illea province named Carolina. As Artists, 5's are 3rd from the bottom in the caste system. I would equate them to the typical American family today, not well off, but they feel the struggle of staying afloat throughout the year. As per tradition with all the Princes of Illea a selection is held, where 35 girls throughout the kingdom compete for his hand in marriage. Kinda like The Bachelor meets The Hunger Games with less bloodshe...

Dr. Scholl's Actives for Her (Brought to you by Influenster)

Time for another Influenster review! This time its a one product review box, I've only done these for Influenster. I know some people get the themed Voxboxes with all the fun goodies, but I tend to only qualify for the one brand review ones. Its all good though, I still enjoy them and love trying free stuff! Even if I do end up giving it all away like I did my Mary Kay stuff (sans the Lash Primer). For this box I qualified to receive a free pair of Dr. Scholl's Active Series Inserts for Her. They retail for $19.99 at Target and $24.99 at Walgreens.  A little pricey for just one pair of insoles, but then again if you work out a lot or are just a sneaker fan in general, you may want to invest in a pair of quality insoles; not only for comfort, but also to extend the life of your sneaks (trainers, for those across the pond). The 'Her' insoles will be for shoe sizes 5.5-8 & 8.5-11, and the 'Him' insoles will fit 7.5-10 & 10.5-13. They are easy to be shap...

Getting it done!

A Book with More Than 500 Pages: The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson A Book Set in Another Country: The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson A Book That was Originally Written in a Different Language: The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson A Book Written by an Author with the Same Initials: The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson A Book You Started but Never Finished: The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson I know that this is probably a lot of cheating, like a lot a lot, but these two books covered everythingggg. Its most likely also cheating because I listened to both of these books on "tape". Why would I do such a thing like that? Because I found the first book ( The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo ) incredibly difficult to read. The books are translate from Swedish and I appreciate the time it must take to actually do that, but sometimes the sentence structure isn't always how I would like it to be. Any ...
