Amerisleep AS3 Reviews

  My Amerisleep AS3 Unboxing Video (Surprise, my voice is ridiculous!) If I can (just barely) do it, you can totally tackle a bed-in-a-box by yourself.

Now we also have an AS2 and an AS4 (the AS3 is still our favorite). Born with chronic insomnia  (even as a baby - my family insists I was a nightmare), the struggle to improve my sleep is my life.

Telluride Food and Vine Festival

You know how I was feeling sad about the Sun, Wind, and Wine Festival being over until next year? No more raising glasses of pinot noir in a tipsy toast. No more chef-prepared meats and cheeses and cakes. *Sigh* 

It seems the festival gods were listening. Did you know there's another amazing event starting this week? We don't even need to wait until the weekend to attend. 

That's right. There's a 99% chance of wine.
Colorado Wine Festivals
That was a weird thing to say, right? Now it makes sense.

Trying to get my mind off the lack of upcoming wine festivals, I flipped through the latest issue of Garden & Gun. I was careful not to bend any pages so that the magazine can be shared in the waiting room of the dental offices I manage. I placed the magazine down for like a second, ten tops, and got a glass of water.
Garden + Gun Dogs
Phinny, who is not allowed on this chair BTW, devoured the corner of the cover, plus several pages. It seems if he hadn't gotten it, Olive and Bernadette would.
Side note: Now you see why I drink. ðŸ˜‰

It was clear that my mischievous doggo knew what he'd done was bad because when I returned, he launched himself off the chair, hurling the magazine off the edge with his hind legs.

When I picked it up, Garden + Gun was turned to the Telluride Food and Vine Festival, which I'd flipped right past previously. Wine gods? Phinny trying to get us out of the house?

Starting this Thursday, June 1st, don't miss out on fun, dining, and education (oh, and lots of WINE) at the Food and Vine Festival in the cool ski town of Telluride, Colorado. This is no ordinary festival.

Telluride Food and Vine Festival

Worth traveling for! Tickets at https://www.telluridefoodandvine.com - hurry because events are selling out quickly!

With exciting events spread out over 4 days, you have the chance to indulge from the sky in a hot air balloon, savor 8 courses during a revered Japanese culinary experience, grill and chill with the winner of Food Network’s Iron Chef Showdown, David Bancroft, and party it up at the Grand Tasting.

There will be master mixologists and culinary experts, but there are no VIP tickets. At this festival, everyone is a VIP.

Telluride's Food and Vine Festival starts the festivities right with a rhinestone cowboy (no, not like the song, though it seems a missed opportunity if they don't play that one) welcome party. On Saturday, it even features an event with effervescent, rosé-based cocktails served while you and your friends laugh over a game of croquet.

Into learning? There are multiple wine seminars, including two where you blend your own custom bottle of red or white wine and another where you'll take home a $138 Riedel kit so you can continue to dazzle everyone with your wine expertise.

Into yoga? They have that too. The Telluride Food and Vine Festival has something for everyone!

Can't decide which events to attend? No worries because they have my #1 most favorite thing for wine festivals. Almost no one offers this even though it creates the best festival experience ever.

discounted, all-inclusive weekend pass! With a pass, there's no FOMO and no need to stress about what to attend. You just sit back and enjoy your time, wine-style.

wine and vine
Watch out, wine. I'm coming to get you.

Chemical Peel Before & After

This article has been updated! My new chemical peel post, which includes pricing, Jessner peel before and after photos, product recommendations, and a helpful timeline for scheduling your treatments, is at the bottom. My original Jessner peel post (one of the most popular on my site of all time) is at the beginning. Original Chemical Peel Article Considering a chemical peel? I recently underwent my first Jessner peel and thought I'd share my results, post a Jessner peel review, and answer some frequently asked chemical peel questions. (I'm guessing that "Does a chemical peel hurt?" is a biggie!) I'd been planning to order an over-the-counter peel when we were in Iceland , but my computer led me a different direction. I decided to do this on a whim after Groupon greeted me one morning with a great $40 chemical peel deal. Now, I can read your mind. You just gasped in horror and thought  You trusted your face to a  discount  chemical peel?!  You're wondering w

Hello Fresh Complaints

Hello, my bloggy friends. I have a HelloFresh complaint and believe they are pulling a scam. Yours truly came *this close* to falling for it.  Maybe scam is too harsh of a word. Sneaky? You can decide for yourself. The fact that there are so many Hello Fresh complaints online does seem suspicious. My main complaint about Hello Fresh has to do with their promotional rate, which seems like it is set up to be intentionally misleading (more on this below). Despite so many people complaining about being charged more than they thought they'd agreed to, Hello Fresh maintains this as part of their business model and continues to mislead. So it's intentional, right? I do not recommend Hello Fresh. For starters, the service is just ingredients-by-mail with recipes, not meals. You can buy your own ingredients for much less, especially now that most grocery stores conveniently offer pickup and delivery. Excellent recipes are easy to find.  Click here for a list of top-rated, reader-favorit

Window Seat Idea - Dream Home Inspiration of the Day

See it? Waaay at the back of the photo?  I like how the window seat extends past the window all the way to the wall. How about you? If that's not your style, how about one of these lovely window seats? I'll seat you, my pretty, and your little dog too. How perfect would this be in a home office? I'd swap out that wimpy rug with a larger one.
