Bzzagent: Dark Monk Campaign!



Hey guys,
It's time for a new bzz campaign for anotherBzzagent campaign. This time I was selected to participate in the e-book campaign for the Dark Monk book. This particular campaign come with both e-books from Oliver Pötzsch. The first book in the series is The Hangman's Daughter.
The story is in Germany, 1660: When a dying boy is pulled from the river with a mark crudely tattooed on his shoulder, hangman Jakob Kuisl - whose wisdom and empathy are as unusual as his despised profession - is called upon to investigate whether witchcraft is at play.
Magdalena, the hangman's clever and headstrong daughter, is destined to be married off to another hangman's son — except that the town physician's son is hopelessly in love with her. After the gruesomely injured boy is pulled from the river, the villagers suspect local midwife Martha Stechlin. Jakob Kuisl is charged with extracting a confession and torturing her until he gets one. Convinced she is innocent, he, Magdalena, and her would-be suitor to race against the clock to find the true killer.
The second book is about the Dark Monk: A Hangman's Daughter Tale.
The story takes place when the winter has settled thick over a sleepy village in the Bavarian Alps, ensuring every farmer and servant is indoors the night a parish priest discovers he's been poisoned. As numbness creeps up his body, he summons the last of his strength to scratch a cryptic sign in the frost. Click here to learn more!
Hangman Jakob Kuisl, his daughter Magdalena and the town physician's son team up again - this time with the priest's aristocratic sister - to investigate a trail of riddles. What they uncover will lead them back to the Crusades, unlocking a troubled history of internal church politics and sending them on a chase for a treasure of the Knights Templar. But they're not the only ones after the legendary fortune. A team of dangerous and mysterious monks is always close behind, tracking their every move.
The author is Oliver Pötzsch, born in 1970, has worked for years as a screenwriter for Bavarian television. He himself is a descendant of the Kuisls, one of Bavaria's leading dynasties of executioners.

Crowdtap: McCormick's Grill Mates hosted party!





Hello everyone,
This Memorial Day weekend was a great time to host a BBQ with family and friends in order to remember all those soldiers who have and are still serving our country. This weekend I was actually invited to one BBQ and I held another BBQ at my parents home.

The party I attended we used the Grill Mates Brown Sugar Bourbon BBQ sauce, and uses the Memphis pit BBQ rub on the pork chops.
The food was absolutely fabulous! The pork chops we ate off the bone and it didn't even need a fork! We had BBQ chicken to use the sauce for. The sauce was also amazing. This party was held at a friends home.





The second party I had attended took place with my parents at their home. We had hamburgers, hotdogs, and brat burst sausages. We all like our food spicy so we had used all of the spices and sauces that were provided. We all loved the products.





Overall, the sampling that both crowdtap and McCormick had provided me with we're received as they were going out of style. Everyone absolutely loved them. Personally, I loved the spices, rubs, and sauce for the flavor. The spices had the hot taste that I love on all of my food.

Swaggable: Dream Water Review



Hey everyone!
You know I do everything possible to get the best reviews on some of the best products out there. Well, today I bring you Dream water. I signed up for Swaggable.com about a month ago and I was so excited that I was selected to try dream water. Dream water is an all natural 0-calorie and relaxation shot that you take about 30 minutes prior to going to bed.
First, let me start by saying I am probably one of the worst sleepers in the world. I toss and turn, sleep walk and talk, have horrible insomnia, and wake up at the slightest noise, So I am extremely excited to actually try a product that is suppose to help a person sleep.
The sample I received from Swaggable.com was the 2.5 ounce Snoozeberry blueberry pomegranate. I was at first scared to taste the product because I had read that it tasted like cough syrup. So, I put my in the fridge the night before so it would be cold. So roughly 45 prior to my bedtime I drank the 2.5 ounces of Dream Water. The taste actually was not all that bad. It did have a little tang afterwards, but was does not these days. The taste was fruity and the blueberry was very noticeable. After about 15 minutes, I really started to feel the Dream Water kick in. I started to feel relaxed and as if I could just curl up into a ball and fall right to sleep, which for me does not happen very often. So, how does this all work you ask? Well, it's simple. Just look at the diagram below.

So, today is a new day and I have officially tried the Dream Water. Does the product live up to it's name. Absolutely! I can actually say I slept like a baby for thirst time in a very long time. I would definitely recommend this product to people like me who have a difficult time sleeping.

This product was given to me by both Swaggable.com and drinkdreamwater.com. The product was supplied to me, but like always the comments and review is all my own.

I really enjoyed the crunchiness and corn flakes that wew in the bowl! I have a few coupons for grabs for a free box box. If anyone is interested please contact me.

Hi Guys,
  As you know I am a Bzzagent. Bzzagent is a word of mouth company that I accept campaigns from to sample or purchase products with a discount and review products on my blog, social networks, and in person. I was recently selected to sample and review Filippo Berio Olive Oil.  First let me show you what all was sent to me by Bzzagent Jono himself!


Olive oil is a better alternative to butter! I made pacific rim green beans for dinner tonight. I normally use butter, salt, pepper, and garlic. For this recipe I used olive oil instead of butter. To my surprise  I could not taste a difference between the butter and the olive oil. The best part is its good for you!  There are many different perks to using olive oil, to learn more please visit Your health with Filippo Berio. On behalf of myself i would like to take the time to thank Bzzagent for this amazing opportunity!
