Sunsella Stainless Steel Vegetable Steamer

Hi ya'll, I got this vegetable steamer the other day. I was super excited to get it, but it's much smaller than I thought it would be. I love fresh cut vegetable but my love for butter is going to kill me one day. A healthy alternative to cooking your food in the good stuff, just short of lard, is to steam them and add a little extra love later!

It took a while to figure this thing out, even though it looks self explanatory. It came with NO instructions, other than some very vague steps on the side of the box. So, I gave it a go and it took a couple tries to get something decent out of it. For reference, I put too much in it the first two times. Basically this is a single serving device, for single people.

This is how the thing works..
1. fill the smallest sauce pan you have with about a cup of water or just below where the steamer
comes to in your pan.

2. bring your water to boil and add your butter and other herbs you would like your veggies to taste slightly of.

3. open your steamer and place just enough contents so that the top still closes.. I guess since that the steamer has legs on the bottom, you could just use a bigger pot and open it up more to put more in there and just place a lid on the pot it's in.. I think I might try that. Anyways.

4. steam your veggies for about 10 minutes or 15 if they are frozen. Make sure you keep an eye on your water levels. Don't let it cook dry because you can ruin your cookware.

Overall, even though it took me a few tries to correctly cook anything, I like this steamer. I have always wanted one and now that I have one, I don't have any excuse to not cook my vegetables in a healthy way.. Giving up all the yummy stuff is hard, but I can cheat once in a while and add it afterwards :)

I did get this product free and this is my complete and honest opinion about it. I have no ties to this seller in any way.

Redevino Luxury Wine Aerator

I may not be an avid wine connoisseur but I do enjoy a glass of sweet spirits every once in a while. I love sweet wines, so I could imagine how well this would work with a glass of Red or Dry White.

I hate when you pop the cork on a fresh bottle of your favorite wine and you generally have to let it set for about 20 minutes to make sure that it has time to "air out" so that the oxygen can mix into the wine and create a chemical reaction. 

Well, with this Redevino aerator, its special design eliminates that need to let the bottle sit. You can just pour straight into your glass and let the party begin! NO more trying to stall the in-laws during the holidays while your wine has to take a time out on the counter. 




The cup at the top has a specific series of holes to let air in while it flows down into the glass. It makes such a strange sound, like a crank fan or something, that is really loud to be honest, but I guess that sound means it's working?

Before I used this aerator, I did pour some of the wine into a separate glass so that I could taste the difference, and I have to say that this product works. As suspected, the fresh corked wine was so strong and had that "smack" factor. The aerated wine was much smoother and did not have the "twang" on the back of the tongue.

This devise is made of a thick durable material that looks like glass, but I think it is acrylic. Clean up is a breeze, you just rinse thoroughly with hot water and let dry. You can pop the stand and cup back on the base and place it back in your wine area and it will air dry that way. 

Overall, this is a pretty nifty gadget to have and I am very pleased with its performance. I did receive this product at a discounted price and in no way am I associated with the seller. I always leave my honest opinion about each product that I review, so you can rest assure that I will not mislead you about anything you read here. Proof is in the pudding, because not every review I leave about products are positive. I am not obligated to give 5 star rating just because I got a discount on something, and I will not leave a high rating if my experience does not match. If anything, you can rely on that. I just wanted to make that clear.

Luxy Home Garden Hose Nozzle

I actually really like this Garden Hose Nozzle from this company, Luxy Home, because it is made of stainless steel and pretty heavy duty. We have gone through about 5 garden hose nozzles in the last couple of years because they were made of plastic material and just couldn't withstand the elements for more than a season or less depending on if they were dropped. 

This nozzle has weight too! The thing probably weighs 2 lbs and the lever is a breeze to pull, even under high pressure. It has a valve on the back side that you can turn to increase or decrease the water pressure that you desire. I also like that it comes with several replacement rubber rings for the inside in case you have leaks or it wears down over time due to water pressure.


I wish I would have gotten this during my garden season because the other one we had just was difficult to use and keep on. It also has a lot of different watering settings, like most sprayers, so you are just one turn away from whatever kind of watering you want to do. As always, I did get this item free and this is my complete and honest opinion of the product.
