in the bin - 1

Hello, and welcome to episode 1 of in the bin, where I share with you any and all assorted products I've used up and let you know very briefly what I thought of them.

First up we have this Fenty lotion. I liked the smell and it worked quite well on my old tired skin.

Next is this toner, which is the first toner I have used in a long time that I felt maybe possibly was working.

Both gets a thumbs up.

Next are these hair, skin and nail vitamins that i don't think helped me one but but didn't hurt either and they were tasty.

Sideways thumb.

Next is this very nice face lotion. Rich and greasy in a good way. Thumbs up.

Lastly today are these towelettes for your face after a workout. These got dried out which is my fault and not Burt's fault, but once I dampened them, they were fine. I am now trying to stay away from products like these and instead just use a washcloth or my hands, but I bought them and used them.

Sideways thumb.

Thank you for joining me for episode 1 of in the bin

kimchi cucumber salad

This was one of the first things we made in the new year and what a way to start it off. It was so delicious and not too spicy - even the Grandpa and the kids all tried it and liked it to varying degrees. I used this recipe and played around with it a bit. Super good.
