Mail Call!

So I haven't decided which day of the week to do the mail call, but I'm not doing anything right now so I'm just gonna go for it!

I just started summer school on Monday, so I have been a busy busy bee! It's only a five-week course so it's a hit the ground running kind of thing. So while my schedule has been insane, my mail this week has been pretty slow. I only got two things, but I'm SUPER excited about one of them, let me tell ya!

Mail Call!!!
So the first thing I got was a sample of the Fancy Feast Broths. My daughter's cat is going to love this. She is an outside cat (barn cat) and I usually just give her the cheap-o dry food, so she's gonna feel like a queen with this! I haven't given it to her yet, but it looks like something that a spoiled cat would love :) Get the sample here (click on the link that says "Try a bowl on us!").

The second thing is what I'm SUPER excited about! So I signed up for Crowdtap.com and I got to test these Folger's Iced Cafe Concentrates. You add a couple of squirts to a glass of milk and it makes a latte.

I liked these-- a "latte." Sorry, lol!


So let me start by saying that I didn't even know that these existed. I'm a loyal Starbuck's girl and I usually don't pay much attention to the coffee in the store unless I'm buying KCups for my Keurig (which died this week-- RIP). So when I saw this on Crowdtap, I was intrigued. I was a little leary though, I thought for sure it was going to taste like coffee-flavored milk, which doesn't sound that appetizing.

These samples came in just in time after my Keurig died (RIP), and since I started school on Monday, I've really been dragging. I made a glass on Tuesday morning per the package directions (two squeezes, 8 oz milk, ice) and brought it with me to go drop my kids off at daycare before I made the hour-long trek to college. I was about halfway there when I took a sip and OMG LET ME TELL YOU. It was good!! I was surprised!! It actually did taste like a latte! The next morning I made it again but added an extra squeeze and it was even better. I got four samples, but so far I've only tried the Vanilla Latte one, and I highly recommend it! I don't know how much these are in stores, but one bottle makes 12 cups, or probably about 8 if you drink it with an extra squeeze or two like I do.

I signed up for two more product review companies, so I hope to be posting some more reviews soon!
