I am by far one of the biggest snack person ever. I love salty, sweet, and even slightly spicy things. I currently am receiving a different snack monthly box. After trying Munch Pak, this is most likely going to change.
I wont leave you hanging and I will talk about Munch Pak and their services in more detail!
Munch Pak has three different options for their monthly boxes. Their MunchPak Mini that contains 5+ full size snacks for $9.95. They have an Original MunchPak which contains 10+ full size snacks for $19.95. They also have a FamilyPak and this contains 20+ full sized snacks for $39.95.
First, you choose what type of box you want, the mini, original, or the family. Once you do that you are given the choice of how often you want this box sent to you. You can choose from weekly, every two weeks, or every month.
There is also a customize area of the website. You can choose from a list of different snacks. You can choose either you always want that type of item in your box or you do not want that type of item in your box. So if you cant do spicy? Check off the negative sign. You can do this for an additional amount of $1 each item.
Also in the customize area is an area for beverages. You can add coffee, tea, soda, and juice to your monthly box for an additional $5 each. I'm personally picky when it comes to doing additional stuff like that. I personally do not NEED a beverage every month with my subscription. I decided to use the ask a question area of the website. I asked if you got beverages if you do not pay the extra money. Their response was, it is very rare, but you may ones in a blue moon get a beverage in your pack. I honestly think its that more special if you do not know when or what you beverage you will get!
Once you are done customizing your box all you have to do is follow through the steps to check out. Depending on what option you chose for your box, frequency, and extra determines how much you will sped monthly.
Now onto what you might get in your box! I got the original box sent to me. I was super excited to find out what I got in my box!
When I first opened the box, it was wrapped with tissue paper and had a super cute note. It also came with information about their app.
You download the app, scan the item and learn about the food item. This is helpful because some snacks are in different languages and it shows exactly where that candy came from. As I started to take the snacks out, the more excited I got.
I am a big fan of chips and I got two different types in this box, YUM!
I got a regular size bage of Takis Zombie. This Mexican chip is Habanero and Cucumber flavored. I did not mind the spicy aspect of this chip but the cucumber was a little too strong for me. Being that said for some odd reason my two year old and four year old loved them!
The second regular bag of chips is a New Orleans company of kettle cooked chips. The flavor is Cajun Dill Gator-Tators. I am not a fan of sour pickles, I am more of a sweet jerkin person. Even though they are dill flavored, they were DELICIOUS! Even both my kids loved them.
This box came with a beverage and it was super exciting. I honestly needed something to drink after trying those spicy chips. I got something called Club Orange. It is a UK brand of an orange soda made with real oranges. I absolutely loved it, and was nice enough to let my kids have one little sip each. I mean I was considerate, right? haha! 
This box also had something savory-ish. I actually had to use the app to learn more about this. It is Yaokin Cocobis Crackers and its from Japan. From the description it is like a sugar cookie and cracker in one. It was sweet but not too sweet and definitely crunchy and crumbly. I liked it but my kids were not fans of it.
Another savory item was an item from Thailand. This snack is Sweet Corn flavored Pretz. They reminded me of pocky without the chocolate. I thought they were going to be weird because they taste like sweet corn, but I was completely wrong. My kids and I all enjoyed this treat. I was actually sad when they were all gone.
My favorite part of the box was all of the sweets. all full sized too, no tiny tummy teasers!
I got something called a swoffle. This is a gluten free US made caramel filled waffle cookie. It was not crunchy but very good. My kids and I all liked it. 
A Croatian chocolate bar was included in this box. This candy bar has hazelnuts in it, YUM! Everyone in the family loved this bar, my kids, husband and myself!
Another candy bar included was a German candy bar. It was chocolate on the outside and Oreo on the inside. Out of the two candy bars this one was all of our favorite!
I have heard of Pocky but I have never tried it before. When i found out this Japanese treat was in the box was super happy. The only thing I was a little leary about was the flavor, Pumpkin. In the end it was actually delicious. My kids and I ate them all before my husband could even get home from work.
Also in the box was an Austrian wafer treat. These were honestly the best chocolate wafers I have tasted. I believe it was the chocolate that made a difference. We devoured these before my husband could even get home.
The final item in the box was a Polish treat. It has a peppermint outside and cocoa inside. The peppermint part was not super hard or even as minty as i thought it would be. The chocolate inside was delicious! I mostly ate them myself and I shared a couple with my kids. I know, I am greedy when it comes to sweets.
Over all I really like this box. I am honestly thinking about switching companies.

December is not only a month of family and Holidays but it is also a month of sweets treats and delicious foods! I personally have the biggest sweet tooth ever! This is why BoCandy was the perfect choice for my Christmas Guide!
For those who do not know about BoCandy. BoCandy is a company that sends treats to your doorstep monthly. BoCandy has multiple different types of boxes they send. They have their International Candy Taste Box, BoCandy Big Snack Box, Asian Candy Box, BoCandy Premium Box, and the BoJerky Beef Jerky Box.
I received BoCandy's International Candy Taste Box, starter box. The only thing that was a little disappointing was Florida's heat. My mail carrier delivered my box to my mailbox and the chocolate got all melty. This did not ruin my snack experience though, all I had to do was stick them in the refrigerator!
In my box I got six different treats from all over the world. I shared these treats with my kids and my friend. Of course my kiddos thought they were all delicious!
The Ola Pola candy bar is super yummy Polish candy. It is a chocolate and wafer layered candy. The chocolate was rich enough but not too much either. It got a two thumbs up from everyone!
Lucas Muecas is an interesting candy. Think of the concept of a baby bottle pop. A sweet sugary lollypop which you dip in sugar, but only different. This candy has a delicious mango lollypop, but what is unique about it is the chili. It comes with what looks like a sugary coating on the outside of the lollypop but it is a tongue tingling chili powder. It also has more of it to dip in it as you suck on the lollypop. I personally had to wash the outer coating off, but once I did it was sort of tasty even when dipping it into the chili. I did not share this treat with my kids and friend though.
I tried to look online about this candy but unfortunately I did not find much out much. This candy is quite different. It reminds me of sticks of gum. The only thing is, it is not gum! As you chew it, it starts to disappear! This candy also got a two thumbs up from everyone!
This Swedish peppermint candy stick was honestly not something I expected. I thought it would be a large tooth breaking candy cane. This candy has a soft chew-able peppermint outside and a small hard candy cane in the inside. Quite, refreshing, and got a two thumbs up from all of us!
Curly Wurly is a candy that is manufactured in the UK. It is a caramel candy with a chocolate coating on the outside. The candy gets its name from its curly wurly appearance. The candy is sweet and the caramel is soft enough so it does not stick in your teeth. Another two thumbs up from us!
I am not 100% sure but I think this candy is Norwegian. It is kind of sort of like the aero bar with the air bubbles inside. The candy bar also looks like big bubbles. I did not share this candy bar because it was SO delicious! It was actually kind of disappointing when it was gone! Two thumbs up from me!
I really think that 5 out of 6 candies being a hit really awesome! The best part about this box is the fact it only costs $9.99 a month.
If you or someone you know has a sweet tooth like me this would definitely be a great gift! You can subscribe for yourself here monthly. You can also prepay for three, six, and twelve months as a gift!

We moved into our home in December. The house was owned by a little old lady whose husband had passed away. Not only was the house neglected but her husband was a self proclaimed "handyman". We moved in to an assortment of wires all over the house. Apparently he had speakers everywhere (at least that is what it seemed like). The worst was the garage, where he had multiple T.V.'s.
Slowly we have been doing improvements to the home. We have been maintaining the yard, cleaning up the home, painting, and updating things. The two rooms I have been focusing on have been our bathrooms. We installed our cabinet over the toilet for extra space in the main bathroom. I installed a three tier pressure rod shelf system and a new shower head in our master bathroom.
After installing the one in my bathroom the main bathrooms shower head looked awful. It's one of those small shower heads that you can remove and use as a handheld one. It is old and yellowed and just looks yuck! As soon as I was given the opportunity to I chose to get rid of the old and put something new.
I was given the opportunity to try the Power Spa 8' Rainfall Shower Head. I have something similar in my bathroom and I absolutely love the style. I know it kind of sounds silly but, I did not want to have the same exact thing in my main bathroom. So, that is why I chose to use this one instead!
The whole process of installing the shower head was frustrating. Not because of the new one, but because of the old one. It took me FOREVER to get the darn thing off! Once I was able to finally get it off, getting the new one on was a breeze!
After I finally got the old one off. I had to assemble the new one. The new one came in a few parts. The long arm, the shower head, a ball and joint type thing so you can tilt and move the shower head slightly, and the "tape" to help make the seal water tight.
Once those two main pieces were attached all I had to do was tighten it on to the shower fixture. It honestly took me a moment because my husband was not around and I lacked a specific tool and some "man power", but I got it done. I could not be happier with this shower head. The waterfall feature feels so nice. I almost wish it was in my shower instead!
Pictures do not do this shower head justice either.
You can find this great shower head here.
