Be Exempt From Obamacare!
Ahhh...deep breath. The government had partially shut down at midnight but the sun still rose this morning. My electricity is on and - - -believe it or not - -- the mailman just plopped mail in my box!

My husband and I are exempt from Obamacare. Yes! Exempt. We became officially accepted into the Medi-Share Medical Sharing program today. Our share amount has been cut in half as compared to a Cigna policy we cancelled six months ago (Premium was over $550.00/month and would no doubt go through the roof under Obamacare in short order).

Natural Calm : The Anti-Stress Drink - Great Gatorade Replacer!
I received a Natural Calm Anti-Stress Drink sample from Vitacost.com just for placing an online order. Vitacost.com is good that way in that with every online order you get to pick two samples from an assortment of samples they offer you. The sample drink powder flavor was rasperry lemon flavor.
I wanted to sample this product because I am honestly tired of Gatorade (with its preservatives, artificial sweetener and dyes). I swim Masters three mornings a week and so I did need a sports drink to replenish the magnesium lost during workouts. My water balance has been off awhile. If you have swollen fingers now and then even in the cooler months, that is a good sign that your water balance is off.
I poured the powder in a room temp bottle of purified water. It fizzed slightly and looked just like lemon Gatorade. This beverage tasted pleasant and had a slight lemon flavor. I did not detect raspberry flavor, however. A few gulps into it, I realized this was going to be my Gatorade replacer!!
Since I am into organic, whole foods (no chemicals) I was quite excited to realize this product would do two things: 1. Replace Gatorade during my swim workouts and after and 2. Offer another benefit which is to restore the magnesium levels in my body. After going back and doing a bit more research at Vitacost, I also realized this product in time would decrease calcium buildup to actually level out and balance the body's calcium to magnesium ratio.
I gave this one 5+ stars! The reviews on Vitacost are up there too so I know I am not the only one who is excited to purchase this product. Sampling products is so beneficial. Saves money. Allows you to be an educated consumer, and getting freebies is always a bonus. Get your freebie today. Place an order at Vitacost.com!
Bye bye Gatorade, artificial sweeteners and all....

Vitacost.com: Free Samples and Excellent Deals!
I am a passionate saver! And so, when I come across a generous e-tailer, I have a hard time not sharing! I shop Vitacost often, enjoy savings and after a year, I finally realized samples were available as freebies with each order!'
With any order from this mega online natural pharmacy store you have the awesome chance to choose two samples with your order. After you are done shopping, click the continue shopping button then look to the lower left for a samples category. If you don't see it, enter 'samples' in the search box.
Double check in your cart that you are not being charged for the sample. It has been my experience that I received two samples per order. When I tried to sneak a third sample into my cart, I was charged $1.49 -- and that was not a freebie!
Vitacost also has great deals on many products that I travel to the WholeFoods for.... Why not plan ahead and search your favs online? Shipping is free often with a minium of $49. Standard shipping is fast, too.
Who knows - you may launch your very own review blog with all the free samples you will receive form this very accomodating, valuable webseller.
Hope this freebie is a blessing!

Olay Professional ProX Clear Complexion Renewing Lotion
This product found me. It arrived in my mailbox one day. I read the box which stated, "Professional Designed for Adults with Acne" and that it was a new product on the market.
The directions stated to smooth over your entire face. I understand this would be beneficial to someone with an acne problem. However, I tested this lotion on just my chin. Smelled clean, non-greasy, clear so it didn't mess up my turtle neck sweater! I did see a marked improvement in the skin. The lotion had a drying effect which was immediate. No doubt the entire Olay Professional Pro X Kit (shown) would be a great skin care plan for an adult with breakout issues. I also would recommend it to someone who has skin issues elsewhere - neck, back or even small areas prone to breakouts.
I hope the good folks at Proctor & Gamble (manufacturer of Olay) will allow me to review more products - especially the suntan lotion without all the oil (Olay Professional Pro-X Clear UV Moisturizer SPF 15). I'm not one to support the "name it and claim it philosophy", but in this case, What not?
But chances are, if I had used Olay Professional Pro-X Clear UV Moisturizer SPF 15 on my vacation, then chances are that I would not have needed the sample I received in the mail after my vacation.
I enjoyed trying out this acne solution in the generous .24 oz tube. It's getting stashed in my purse - just in case. A girl can never have enough skin solutions! I have truly found my go-to for acne in Olay Professional Prox Clear Complexion Renewing Lotion!

The Chew: Mario Batali's Beef Braciole
After watching several episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond in which Debra outdoes Marie in the kitchen (the one and only time), my husband and I decided to try beef braciole in our own kitchen but just never had the inspiration to actually do it - - until now.
After watching a recent episode of The Chew, I decided to include this video in my Freebies and In the Kitchen category. I plan to plop my laptop on my kitchen counter and cook with Mario!
The Chew continues to be my cooking school.You know you are hooked when you begin to become personally connected to something (I have claimed it as mine though there are millions of viewers!)
I confess I watch 2-3 episodes back-to-back sometimes (just because I can). I literally block out that time for myself. I pour a glass of wine and sit on my chaise, feet up, pen and pad in hand and just glean from the Masters! Of course, there are a few irritating happenings going on (many co-stars talking over one another, double dipping and drinking wine pre-pour, a few social agenda self-promotions, etc) but who cares! This show is mostly about cooking and family and friends having fun in the kitchen. There is unity among the chaos...
Nothing in life is perfect. And I do have to say that I enjoy the humanity in this group of people that share their passion for cooking and for life. The Chew has first priority in my DVR!
Enough talking - I gotta get cooking! Beef Braciole may just become my favorite go-to meal. Just like Debra Barone in Everybody Loves Raymond I may soon have the additional admiration of my husband - and my husband's father and brother and for at least one day in my life. I can already taste the sweet success of outshineing my Mother-In-Law in the kitchen. Now that's a recipe worth going for!!!

The Chew: Daytime on ABC
Every once in awhile a gem of a tv show pops up and I cannot help but shoot a post about it. The Chew is one such family-friendly food-focused fabulous find Monday-Friday 1:00 eastern! It replaced the long-time running All My Children in that time slot. I dvr just about everything nowadays. My dvr is perfect for this program. I don't want to miss a single show! You will understand why after watching it for the first time. The co hosts are Clinton Kelly, Mario Batali, Michael Symon (love him!), Carla Hall and Daphne Oz.
Check out a sample below. You can see more at http://beta.abc.go.com/shows/the-chew.
Carla Hall is one of those people you want in your life. She exudes warmth, unconditional love and a proud heritage and an unabashedly exuberant joyous excitement for family and cooking for family. No doubt each co host intertwined their love of cooking with family, but Carla Hall doesn't just talk about it. Her whole body literally does a happy dance when it is her turn to share her recipes.
I was not as wowed as the rest of the watching world when Paula Deen was the celebrity guest last week. She kind of took over and cut off my new The Chew bff Carla Hall. I don't care how famous you are - you are still a guest and grandstanding never is acceptable. I was shocked when Paula Deen double dipped into the pudding and then leaned over the entire bowl to dig in for more. Gross!
Other than a few minor infractions this show rocks!!! I am glad it is not rehearsed and polished to perfection. I enjoy the spontaneity so very much. Can't wait for Monday's The Chew!

Software Review: System Optimizer 8.2 by Digeus Incorporation
This software was super easy to install. With the exception of the Registry Cleaner button (it is not a "repair button" but instead choose "Fix selected invalid entries") enabling the tasks was easy as the buttons were laid out in a square. The Junk Files cleaner processed quickly and easily. Kaboom I instantly cleaned out the junk in my C drive! Disk Space Analyzer was quite informative however since I was testing on a relatively new laptop I was not surprised to see the results. If you were looking to optimize an older computer this task would be helpful.
Process Manager: I would have appreciated a filter. Because many of the well-known companies in our systems are legit though their signatures did not come up as verified. I would have appreciated being able to program a filter for this task. Microsoft came up in red and I was supposed to manually approve them as safe. Possibly spending the time to personalize this process a first time may allow the user to create their own filter for the next scan.
Defragment Your Registry I was not able to fully complete this task. I received this error loading it "Hive:unable to map Path:{/Device\Hard Disk Volume 1\Boot\BCD]. I also was not able to minimize the screen as in other tasks though there was a minimize option at the top right of the pane.
Duplicate File Folder this was a progress line but no green fillin so I had know way of knowing how much longer the scan would be. I hung in there though and was clearly impressed by how many duplicate file folders the scan located and removed.
Services Manager: I do not know enough techie talk to know what to do with this task. However, for someone willing to learn more about their system, this task may be a benefit.
Overall, I would recommend anyone looking to optimize their system to contact Digeus and check out this product first-hand. Good news! This product is a freebie for christinawillreviewit.blogspot.com readers!
