No blender, no problem: Evive Smoothie Cubes + A giveaway!

March 17, 2019 by try small things

Evive Smoothie sent me the products in this post for free in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. They say the smoothie was invented when Chuck Norris interrogated a banana. But who has time to karate chop a bunch of fruits and vegetables when time is short and the need for something quick and healthy is big? Enter Evive Smoothie. The Montreal co. created frozen cubes of organic fruit, veggies and plant protein that you pop […]

New York in Bloom by Georgianna Lane + Win a copy!

March 12, 2019 by try small things

ABRAMS Books sent me New York in Bloom in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. Happy book birthday to New York in Bloom! Told mostly in photographs, it’s Georgianna Lane’s love letter to the city’s parks and gardens, floral studios and displays, and market blooms, and it’s out today. The book is a companion to 2017’s Paris in Bloom (also lovely) and a third book, London in Bloom, is on the way.

It’s bloomin’ March! What’s ahead

March 2, 2019 by try small things

Well hey there, good lookin’! I hope you’re having a sweet Saturday. I wanted to get this out earlier but I’ve been cleaning like a woman possessed (it rarely happens, so when it does I’ve got to go with it) so here we are. Both of us with a cup of tea (yes?) and a few minutes to ourselves to look at what’s coming up here and elsewhere this month.
