“MAYA THE BEE MOVIE” Synopsis

Maya is a little bee with a big heart. She dreams of an exciting life of freedom, fun and adventure – the world is simply far too interesting to stay inside a hive! Her funny attempts to fit in bring her into trouble with the Queen’s narrow-minded royal advisor, Buzzlina. With her best friend Willy, Maya buzzes out into the meadow on an exhilarating adventure of self-discovery.

While most bees believe that other insects should be feared, Maya can’t help but make friends with Flip the charismatic and eccentric grasshopper, Kurt the dung beetle and even Sting, a young hornet. But when the Queen’s royal jelly is stolen, it will take Maya and all of her bug buddies to figure out who did it and how to save the day!

I would highly recommend this DVD for your children. My daughter absolutely loved this movie. It grabbed her interest and she has watched it several times. Usually it is hard for her to watch something all the way through let alone watch it twice. It was very cute movie and a great movie to watch with the family. Highly recommended.

Are you looking for a new style for Spring and Summer. Your in luck with Kiss InstaWave. Kiss Insta Wave can give you many different looks for your Spring/Summer time.

The first look that you can achieve for the Spring time is Tousled Hot For Spring Curls. This is a very easy look to do.If you would like enhance and define your natural curly hair all you need is to apply a texture spray on your dam hair. You want to apply from your roots to your ends. You want your hair 90% dry before using the KISS InstaWave for a more defined look.

The second look is Effortless Waves: This is also another simple style for your Spring and Summer time. All you need is to blow dry hair using your fingers to play off the natural texture of your hair. You want to create a center part, then you want to use the Kiss InstaWave to catch and cure the mid lengths of the hair. Than you will be leaving the ends free then you want to pull down vertically. Then after styling you can leave it or brush through it and rough it up a little and you have another great look.

My favorite style out of all three is this one the Tousled Ponytail. If you are running late to work or just out this would be the perfect style. Pull hair tightly back on the sides and tease the top for added volume. Perfect look with texture and curls at the ponytail using the Kiss InstaWave. Easy to hold, from any angle, with any hand- now curling the back of your hair will be a cinch. 

This product is easy to use and heats up quite well. It also hold the heat well and not over heat. This heats up pretty quickly so when your in a rush it is easy to use. The suggested retail price is 59.99. You can find it at amazon.com or Target.

Greek Yogurt Bites

Disclosure: I received one or more products or monetary composition for the exchange for my honest opinion. I only recommend product that I would use personally or believe would be a good fit with my readers. All opinions are 100 percent my own and may differ from yours. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides concerning the use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.

I want to share a secret with you today. I have found the most amazing product out there. Greek Yogurt Coated Bites. I will confess these were meant to be for my children for Easter. As you can tell I hid them. I know I am bad but when I tried these I did not want to share because they tasted so great.

About Rickland Orchards and their Greek Yogurt Bites. Greek yogurt isn't just a tasty alternative to regular yogurt-- it's better alternative to regular yogurt. With almost twice the protein and fewer carbohydrates, the benefits of Greek yogurt are enormous and enormously delicious in their Greek yogurt coated snacks.

I was sent a variety of their Greek Yogurt Coated Bites to try. First I received small on to go packets of Greek Yogurt Covered Almonds and Chocolate Cover Pretzel Yogurt Bites. When I first opened up the package I had to try these. They did not last long. They tasted great!! I will be honest I am not a huge yogurt or greek yogurt fan so I was worried at first. That changed when the packs were disappearing. I really enjoyed the almonds the tasted wonderful and the greek yogurt coated on them. All I could say is wow. I am a huge fan of chocolate cover pretzels. When I saw the greek yogurt chocolate pretzel bites I had to try them. So far I will have to admit they are probably my favorite out of them. With trying both of these I couldn't really tell you that I noticed it was Greek Yogurt but it tasted great.

Then in the bigger backs I received the fowling to try. Greek on the go Carmel Bites, Strawberry Bites and Blue Berry Bites. These bites are small round covered bites with the fruit inside or the carmel. I love them of course because the are bite size and do not make the best. I am guilty when I opened up the Blue Berry Bites I could not put the bag down and when I did they were empty:( that made me sad. I also really like the strawberry chews they where amazing and especially if you are a strawberry fan. For those days your down in the dumps and need a chocolate fix I would recommend the chocolate carmel ones.

I will be honest at first I did not have high hopes on this product at all. I gave them a fair chance and now I am looking to order more of them :) I would highly recommend this gift for Mothers Day. I know I am making a request here at home for more for Mother's Day.
