After trying dozens of different Nespresso pod flavors, we wanted to share a few of our favorites and opinions on many of the options that they carry. We'll split them up by machine type. VERTUO For the Vertuo pods, the Inizo pod is by far my favorite. It's an Eastern African coffee blend and is balanced and medium bodied. For coffee drinkers that enjoy their java black, it's the best tasting of the all the Vertuoline pods in my opinion! It's floral and earthy and tastes

If you are someone that has to sit all day at work or are dealing with lower back pain, we found a great item that will allow you to sit comfortably without sacrificing your productivity. The Fortem Seat Cushion & Lumbar Support can easily fit most chairs and helps relieve pressure points. The Fortem tailbone relief cushion features an ergonomic "U" shaped cutout. This orthopedic seat cushion alleviates pressure on the sciatic nerve to reduce back, leg, and butt pain. The l

I'm a little over 5'4", which makes me too tall for petite, but still too short for some standard pant lengths. Because of this, I have to hem most of my pants. I liked the stone washing on the hem and I wanted to keep the original hem on this pair of jeans. For me it depends on the fabric if I decide to keep the original hem or just do a standard hem. Here are two options to achieve an original hem alteration: The first option, you will need just a sewing machine and t

When you start to notice little marks on your dishes, you begin wonder if there's anything you can do to fix them or if they'll need to be replaced with new dishes. We saw a video on Instagram of a product called The Pink Stuff, and hoped that could work. The Pink Stuff is a mildly abrasive paste that can help lift dark marks and blemishes on plates and stainless steel. It's fairly inexpensive on Amazon so we decided to give it a try. When you open the lid, you'll see it

We wondered if anything existed to make cleaning our cat's litter box less of a chore. That brought us to the PetSafe Scoop Free Self Cleaning Litter Box . The PetSafe Self Cleaning Litter Box falls in line with our effort to find gadgets that make our lives easier. You literally place the disposable litter tray on the ground, dump the pack of litter in, and place the machine over the tray. The refill trays come in packs of 3 and 6 on amazon and will run cheaper than bu

With everything we've read about how toxic black plastic can be, especially when boiling liquid, we got rid of our old black plastic kettle. Looking for a glass alternative, we found the Capresso H2O Glass Rapid-Boil Kettle . The only elements that come in contact with water are glass and stainless steel. The Capresso glass kettle heats liquid incredibly fast. We usually never fill the kettle any more than halfway, but it usually is done boiling in 2 minutes or less. The

The Cricut Joy is a small, lightweight cutting machine designed for quick and easy projects. It's compact size makes it perfect for home use, fitting comfortably on a desk or craft table without taking up much space. The cutting mat that comes with the Joy has 4.5" x 6.5" workable space. I purchased a separate cutting mat with 4.5" x 12" workable space which works better for most of my projects. Cricut also makes a matless vinyl if you need to create a project that's 4.5" x

Our Dyson V7 Vacuum was pretty reliable for the past 5 years, but it's starting to not hold a charge more than 25 seconds. This makes it virtually impossible to clean our home unless it's a tiny mess that a dust buster could suck up. Rather than buy a new Dyson vacuum, we decided to try this EGR battery replacement on Amazon that is made specifically for all V7 Dyson models. The Dyson battery replacement from EGR comes with a 1 year warranty and is packaged in a small box
