The K-Cup Challenge: Twinings Earl Grey Tea
When our friends at Shoffee.com were prepariing our latest round of samples for the K-Cup Challenge, I asked Joe to include Twinings Earl Grey in the mix. You may remember that I previously reviewed Timothy’s Canarino(hot lemon beverage), but this marks my first foray into the world of true teas for Keurig Brewers.
I’m, for the most part, not [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Diedrich Sumatra
As with all of the Diedrich coffee I’ve reviewed so far, my samples of Diedrich Sumatra were provided by Qwowi’s friend’s at OneGreatCup. I’ll say more when we get to the shameless plug portion of the review, but for now, just know that OneGreatCup has everything you could possibly need in terms of coffee and [...]
Qwowi at the Races: The 139th Travers Stakes
As a guy who has spent the better part of the 20 years living in the Saratoga, NY area it’s practically a crime that I’ve never attended a running of the Travers (or the mid-summer derby as it’s often referred to in these parts). Granted, I’m fairly new to thoroughbred racing, but that’s hardly [...]
Qwowi Golf Review: Ball Brite Golf Ball Cleaning Pouch
The latest gadget from my best of the rest of the PGA Merchandise Show to make it review is the Ball Brite personal golf ball cleaner. The Ball Brite (without using any of the marketing speak) is a no nonsense clip-on pouch for cleaning golf balls. How’s that for simple?.
Shelly Basta, CEO of Ball Brite [...]
A Plethora of Handmade Products from Lush
After reviewing some of my favorite bath products from Lush a couple of weeks ago, the very nice folks at Lush sent me some more items to try. As I mentioned in my first Lush review, after using their Bubble Bars and Bath Bombs for years, I had been anxious and curious to try some [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Caribou Blend Decaf
Having never been too much of coffee drinker before I discovered the joys of Keurig coffee makers, I was largely of the opinion that decaf coffee was pretty much pointless. I mean, if it’s not going to wake you up in the morning, why bother? Over the last few months, however, I’ve found myself craving [...]
Dining Out: Longfellows Restaurant, Saratoga Springs NY
When you live in the shadow of the crown jewel of American Thoroughbred racing you can well imagine the dining options available. The city of Saratoga has more than its fair share of highly rated ristorantes, bistros, and good old fashions eateries. No matter what type of cuisine you’re in the mood for you can [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Coffee People Black Tiger (Extra Bold)
Despite sitting on small mountain of K-Cups provided by our friends at OneGreatCup, I’ve been a little slow in reviewing K-Cups since my return from Alaska now over two weeks ago. It’s not that I haven’t been drinking coffee, in fact I’ve been drinking more than ever, but being on the wrong end of a [...]
Qwowi Golf Review - SKLZ Gyro Swing Training Club
If you’ve got a swing flaw (and who among us doesn’t), chances are there’s a training aid designed to help you fix it. In truth a good bit of what hits the market each season is often little more than rehashed, slightly updated versions of the same cure-all devices we saw the year before. It’s [...]
The K-Cup Challenge: Green Mountain Sumatran Reserve (Extra Bold)
I’m back from Alaska and slowly working my way back into the reviewing business. It seems like nearly forever since I’ve reviewed anything, including the Qwowi standby, K-Cups. Luckily, I’ve still got a bit of a coffee stash in reserve so at least there’s variety to help me get back into the swing [...]
