SodaStream

I received my SodaStream as a gift for Christmas.  I just love it. I have tried many of the SodaStream flavors and narrowed my likings down to just a couple so far. Some I have truly disliked, some are tolerable, then others I find awesome. My favorite currently is SodaStream cherry cola. It tastes very similar to cherry coke where as some of the flavorings have a vad aftertaste in my opinion.  The cherry cola does not seem to have that. I also like the mango energy and energy flavors. The strawberry flavoring is good tasting and is very similar to a store brand strawverry flavored soda. I do not like the regular cola flavoring or the orange flavor.

The machine itself is great. Better than the SodaStream machine my son has. The one I have has a light system to let you know when the amount of co2 is at the level you want by lighting up one, two, or three lights and also can hear a squeal. When releasing it the extra gas releases. The SodaStream system my son has does not have the light up system built in and instead must be determined just by the sound to figure out his co2 amounts. My machine the bottle slides up into and back to clip it in as with my sons it must be screwed in and screwed out. My machine appears easier to use and the better lasting machine between the two. However they are both great money savers.  Especially with the energy flavors.  My son does not have to spend 2.50-3.00 on a single can of energy drink such as NOS or Redbull. The SodaStream is a money saver thats for sure.

"Invisible Witness: Healing From My Family's Legacy of Domestic Violence" Elizabeth Nelson Kindle Book

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. I found this book to be a quick easy read however not an easy read in an emotional aspect. I did find it was not very detailed in the how to cope on a day to day basis with the effects of witnessing domestic violence as a child. However it does give general ways to cope and healing. I wish it had more detailed ways to help with the healing process. It is very unfortunate that many of us experience things like this in life and are led t the just move on attitude from others both in our lives and society as a whole rather than real answers on how to cope and live. It is a healing process that is long term and life long but most people can cope day to day and live a life worth living learning to survive the effects of domestic violence. It also is different that many families that experience things turn out very different and all the members each have their own experience even witnessing the same exact experience. I recommend this book to survivors of domestic violence in their childhood however also I recommend they do not stop here with this book. They go on and read some other books that may help them face and cope with their own experience with more indepthness. I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
