Ubokia {Find What You Want}


Check out my Marketplace!
I recently discovered a fabulous new website called Ubokia. What is Ubokia you ask?

Ubokia was launched in November of 2011, and has been growing steadily ever since. With a membership base of over 200,000 since their launch, Ubokia is the largest and quickest growing “want-centric” ecommerce platform out there.

With Ubokia, you simply have to ask, and you shall receive. It is Ubokia’s goal to connect people with people, not a person with money to an item. Ubokia built their site into an embeddable marketplace that you get to place directly within your site.

The Ubokia Marketplace is a great tool for bloggers and blog readers to use, connecting with like-minded individuals and doing so without ever having to leave your website! Ubokia is a safe place to buy online. I think this idea is genius.

 I know a lot of you already to “blog sales” as a way to sell things you have and don’t need anymore. Well, Ubokia would make that process so much easier and your audience wider. As bloggers we trust each other and depend on each other for information.

Buying through a blog marketplace means you are connecting with other like-minded people – making it easier to find what you want and in general your interactions are more pleasant than something like Craigslist.

Ubokia is easier for buyers because all they have to do is post a want and let sellers come to them. No more searching!

Ubokia is easier for sellers because they don’t have to wait to potential buyers to view their products. They can immediately connect with buyers.

To visit my Ubokia Marketplace go to the tab on the top of this page!

How the Ubokia Plugin Works:
Once you are all set up, Ubokia will simply email you two lines of HTML code for you to copy and paste onto a new page. The marketplace fits in almost every theme out there, while still being able to display your ad space! If you ever have any issues with the install, you will be able to directly contact a Ubokia Team Member who will be able to help you custom fit the marketplace into your site.We have worked to make the app as easy as possible to install, and continue to create an even better user experience.

Disclosure: I was compensated for this review.

Go check it out and happy hunting!!!

I enjoy trying my best to live a balanced life, with a focus on fitness and health as well as motivating others, working hard, creating new recipes, trying to make familiar recipes healthier, and motivating others to get up and be active! I am hoping to have people join me on my ALWAYS evolving journey to being more fit, finishing ChaLEAN Extreme (CLX) on 8/20/12, and starting P90X on September 1st.
I post recipes, home spa treatments, motivational pictures, recaps of daily life, anything that appeals to me and that I feel others might enjoy or benefit from! I love this new journey I’ve begun with blogging and I’ve met so many great people already! I cannot wait to see what the future holds. Nice to “meet” you! Here’s a quick recipe for those gals on the go like myself!
Eggs are a great source of protein and part of a healthy breakfast and these are easy to take with you wherever you’re going. Egg Muffins (Revisited Again) (Makes 12 muffins, recipe created by Kalyn with inspiration from The South Beach Diet book. 15 eggs (for silicone muffin pans, use 12 eggs for metal muffin tins. You can use less egg yolks and more egg white if you prefer.) 1-2 tsp. Spike Seasoning (optional, if you have food allergies or don’t have Spike, use any type of seasoning blend that’s good with eggs.) 1-2 cups grated low fat cheese (I like sharp cheddar or a blend of cheddar/Jack cheese, use less cheese if using meat) Optional, but highly recommended, 3 green onions diced small. Optional: chopped veggies such as blanched broccoli, red pepper, zucchini, mushrooms, etc. (Using veggies will reduce the fat content) Optional: diced Canadian bacon, lean ham, or crumbled cooked turkey sausage Preheat oven to 375 F.
Use regular or silicone muffin pan, 12 muffin size. If using silicone pan, spray with nonstick spray. If using regular muffin pan, put two paper liners into each slot, then spray liner with nonstick spray. In the bottom of the muffin cups layer diced meat, if using, vegetables, if using, cheese and green onions. You want the muffin cups to be about 2/3 full, with just enough room to pour a little egg around the other ingredients. Break eggs into large measuring bowl with pour spout, add Spike, and beat well. (I used to add a bit of half and half or milk, but lately I like the way they turn out without it.) Pour egg into each muffin cup until it is 3/4 full. I like to stir slightly with a fork. Bake 25-35 minutes until muffins have risen and are slightly browned and set. Muffins will keep more than a week in the refrigerator without freezing. Egg muffins can be frozen and reheated, but I like them best when they’re just refrigerated.
For best results, thaw in refrigerator before reheating. Microwave on high about 2 minutes to reheat. This printable recipe from KalynsKitchen.com.

I hope you all enjoy Jennifer’s blog as much as I do!  Thanks for sharing your info with us Jennifer and tips on living a healthy lifestyle! – Becky

Relax & Kick Back

I forgot to blog about Relaxation Day at work last week!  We all got to wear our tropical attire and ordered lunch for the day.  I’m really blessed to have such a great job that I enjoy.  I work with such great people!

I don’t know how relaxing it actually was….but it was fun to dress up and pretend 🙂

 The office decorated like the tropics….I’m sure we all wish we were there!
 Sweet co-workers and Mo our buffalo got a makeover too!
 Yummy treats
 Dawn and Me

We had mexican food for lunch and it was awesome!  No shortage of that here in TX!

Such a fun group!

 

I hope you all have a very RELAXING and great day today!

Revlon Expression Exeriment Kit

 
I recently had the opportunity to try out the new Revlon Expression Experiment kit.  I love to play with makeup. I feel naked if I leave the house without it.  Experimenting with different colors and types of products is how you find out what works for you.  I was excited to try this kit, I really like the Revlon brand because it represents empowering and engaging women to try new things!
 

In the Revlon Expression Experiment kit there was an explosion of color! I received facial primer, ColorStay eye shadow palettes, Color Stay long wear nail polish, SuperLustrous lipstick, ColorBurst Lip Butter, & ColorBurst gloss.

 

1.  ColorBurst Gloss
2.  ColorBurst Lip Butter
3.  Bold red SuperLustrous lipstick


Love this bold red color for fall!
The Lip Butter was super moisturizing and went on smooth as…well….butter.
This gloss was the perfect balance of moisture and color.
This lightweight primer smoothes skin while evening out skin tone with color correcting pigments that neutralize redness and uneven color. Wear alone to tone skin or under foundation, it helps your makeup last longer.
 
Bright bold blue polish 🙂
Eyeshadow pallettes with so many colors to play with:
I loved this eye primer and brightener.  It smooths, perfects and brightens eye area by reducing the appearance of fine lines and crease on lids.
What types of makeup do you like to use and why? 
 
Are there any makeup trends for fall you are wanting to try?

Be sure to join the movement of self expression with the Revlon Expression Experiment Facebook application!

Wishy Washy Wednesday

Thank you for all your kind words of encouragement on yesterday’s post.  I feel so overwhelmed and loved.  Thank you!  I’m so blessed to know each and every one of you, whether it be in real life or through blogging.  So blessed.
I think we all have our ups and downs….I’m actually feeling better today.  Day #3 on antibiotics and doing alrighty! 
We will carry on

A new day has come

We will carry on

I know a new day will dawn

Connor was watching Chuggington last night and I pulled out my camera….his automatic “CHEESE” face.  This kid is hilarious!
Loving this month’s Citrus Lane box
It’s a monthly box to door service for your child.  You do have to specify the age range of your child to get appropriate products for them.  I look forward to getting Connor’s box every month and it always has products & coupons we both enjoy!

My hair is finally starting to grow a little bit.  I miss my longer hair!  I’m trying to decide whether or not to say lighter or go darker for fall.  You all know I’ve been every color in the rainbow….what do you think?

LIGHT OR DARK?
Connor loves this juice box holder we got in the Citrus Lane box.
He always squeezes them when I give him a juice box. 
This idea is genius-  You put the juice in there and it has handles 🙂

I ordered my first May Book yesterday.  I love that it’s cute and has a monthly agenda as well as a weekly schedule.  AND-it’s small enough to take with anywhere!

Here is Birchbox for the month of August:  A Schick razor, beauty fixation makeup remover q-tips, Quick Curls creme (love this for Connor’s hair!), Juicy perfume sample, and an eyeshadow stick! Yay!
Good box for $10 bucks!

I made cake pops last night for a co-worker’s bday today! YUMMY!!!

It’s going to be a great day!
Muah! Becky
