So I baked this cake last week. Baking is not something I am very good at, haha! But I wanted to try this lemon zucchini cake recipe from MomOnTimeout. The cake turned out perfectly, and although we think the cake is good, the zucchini gives it an interesting flavor that makes it different from what we are used to. It’s like you can taste the zucchini with your first bite but that’s okay because the cake is really delicious – so you keep eating it!

 

 

I really liked the simplicity of the ingredients, and I was shocked that no butter was used in this recipe…which made my thighs rejoice!!  And for those who are lactose intolerant, like my son, this recipe uses Almond milk!  But most importantly, this recipe is easy, which is really important to this non-baker haha!

 

 

I doubled the recipe so I could make a separate cake for my parents, which they enjoyed as well.  I just divided the batter into two loaf pans evenly and baked them at the same time.  Both cakes did not last longer than 2 days, ya’ll.

 

 

Here is the link to this scrumptious cake:  Lemon Zucchini Cake.  Try it.  And even if you slightly overbake the cake like I did, it’s still really good!

Good morning friends!  This morning, I am drinking my coffee from one of my new Huskee cups!  If you followed me over from Shop4freebies, you might recall a post that I made telling you how to get your very own free Huskee Cups.  If you signed up for that offer, your cups should be on their way if you have not already received them.  I posted that offer about a year ago I believe, unfortunately, I can’t check because Shop4freebies is no longer an active site.  And I am sorry to say, this offer is no longer available, but if you like these cups and want to try them, I will provide a link to the Huskee Cup website.

 

I really like the concept of these cups, they are made with recycled coffee husks, and the design of the cups makes them even more unique.  The cups are dishwasher-safe, BPA free,  stackable (which I LOVE), and designed to be easy to clean and with comfort in mind.

 

 

One of the few things that stood out for me was the smell, which was not unpleasant, just different.  The smell somewhat reminds me of Patchouli, and I love the smell of Patchouli, just not in my coffee cup.  Once you have coffee in your cup though, the smell starts to fade and all your left with is the glorious smell and taste of coffee.  And my last issue, this cup is not microwavable!  If your a mom, or really busy in the mornings, you know how important microwavable coffee cups are!

 

But, none of these issues are deal breakers for me, the smell fades, does not affect the taste of coffee and I am ok with reheating my coffee in another container if needed.  So I still LOVE these cups!  I think the uniqueness and the concept of the cups are what pulls me in.  Drinking coffee from a cup that was made from recycled coffee bean husks just seems cool to me, and makes me want to invite my friends over to drink coffee form my cool coffee cups…haha!!

 

I want to point out that these opinions are my own.  Huskee Cup is in no way compensating me for my views.  All they did was send me free cups, with no strings attached.

Here is a great way to snag a FREE Ring Doorbell kit!  Simply download the FREE Ring app and sign up for the FREE Crime and Safety Alerts via Neighborhood Watch PLUS and you will be able to get $10 in credits!  Even better, each time one of your friends signs up for the free app using your unique link, you will get $10 in credit…which means awesome freebies for you!

 

To get started, simply use this link to download the free Ring app, then sign up for a FREE account by clicking on “The Neighborhood Watch“, NOT “I have a ring product”.  You will be prompted to enter your address to join a neighborhood community of watchers. Next, the $10 credit alert will pop up along with your personalized link. Make sure to Copy/Paste and save it immediately and start sharing!

 

Tell your friends about the app and you will get an additional $10 credit for each friend that downloads the app when they go through your unique link.  Then you can redeem the credits for FREE Ring products, like the doorbell!

 

Once you get $100 credit (you only need 9 friends to sign up!), go to the Ring.com website and sign in to your Ring account, your credits will appear. Choose the $99 Ring doorbell, you will be able to choose your color preference, your credits will make this item completely FREE! Shipping will also be free!

 

The Neighbors app and the Ring website are two different things but they “link” your accounts once you sign in with both. There is NO limit to the number of $10 credits you can earn, so you could get the ring doorbell, a camera with lights, etc.

 

You do not need a ring doorbell to download the app.  Whenever someone in your area posts a suspicious incident, you will get an alert via the app so you always know what’s going on in your neighborhood.  Ring will keep you up-to-date with crime and safety alerts from your neighbors.

 

It’s as simple as that folks!  Feel free to share your links in the comments section to help each other out!
