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. Updated 10/15/22 Amerisleep's AS5 was recently featured as the 'Best Soft Mattress in a Box' by Good Housekeeping , with the panel of reviewers noting: Pressure relief for side sleepers Taller than other boxed mattresses Good customer service    Amerisleep Mattress Reviews  We've been happy Amerisleep customers since purchasing our first AS3 mattress more than 9 years ago. 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. My husband, the overly-analytical mechanical engineer, was initially skeptical of a mail-order mattress, but he was quickly won over. 2012: Wine glass test, sans wine. I was fairly confident our brand-new mattress would pass with f

Zoo Zoo Review

Yesterday, Sexy Nerd and I went to see Imago Theatre's Zoo Zoo . It was advertised as being fun "for the whole family". What did we think of it? This is the only performance I have ever attended where no one in the theater gave a standing ovation. The 90 minute show really should have been condensed to half an hour. It would be easy - just cut out all the parts with absolutely nothing happening. Our favorite part of this show was the little kid sitting behind us who would periodically yell " DO SOMETHING! " My thoughts exactly, kid.

Fairytale Brownies Coupon

For Valentine's Day, my boss gave each employee an assorted box of Fairytale Brownies. Isn't she awesome ? Fairytale Brownies Coupon 3/21/20: For a Fairytale Brownies coupon , you need to scroll to the bottom of their site and sign up for emails, which will result in a 10% discount being sent to you. I'm sorry to say that Fairytale Brownies is not currently providing any other promo codes. I've checked Honey, RetailMeNot, and just about everywhere else. Keeping in line with my typical, chocoholic nature, I decided to keep all of the ooey, gooey brownies to myself. Perhaps I could stash them somewhere, like underneath the driver's seat in my Alero. I certainly wasn't going to be sharing them with any Kitchen Pigs. Have you seen the "Lamb Cooks" section lately? If Kitchen Pig wants brownies, Kitchen Pig needs to make brownies! Sexy Nerd was never going to know about these brownies either. It wasn't a totally selfish

The Reviews are Coming!

During the holidays, I had fun writing a gift guide using only products I own and enjoy in real life. This gave me the idea to make unsponsored reviews a regular occurrence on my blog, starting immediately (which, if you look at my last review, apparently means 3 months later.) Yes, there are reviews on sites like Amazon, but I'm always skeptical that those are real, or worry that they're actually one big joke and I'm just not getting it. Some past kinda-sorta reviews: Calphalon Contemporary Pans (The Teflon folks weren't happy and let me know it.)(Come to think of it, writing that will certainly attract their attention again, and they aren't going to like it this time either!) Easy Feet - As Seen on TV (This post offended a reader who said they couldn't bend to wash their feet, so I felt like a jerk.)(My Easy Feet review follow up is that it quickly morphed into a slimy, bacteria-infested health hazard, complete with black fuzzies, so...) I'm ho

Sexy Nerd Made Cookies!

Here they are in the cookie dough stage: Oh wait, that is a photo of them fully baked. Hmmmm. *Yes, it is fun harassing Sexy Nerd! Besides, considering that he made about 2 dozen of these and right now, less than 24 hours later, they are ALL GONE, I'm sure he knows I'm just teasing him. The recipe may or may not be coming soon. I asked how he made them and he said "I dunno". So I asked if he used a recipe or just made something up. "I dunno," he said again. YOU DAMN WELL KNOW WHETHER OR NOT YOU USED A RECIPE, YOU CRAZY ASS NERD! Whoops! Must be the sugar talking. o-:)
