Schwan's Home Delivery Review #sponsored

Schwan's Home Delivery Review #sponsored

Disclosure: I received a Schwan’s gift card to facilitate my review. Opinions are my own and are not influenced in any way.

I was really excited to share some discount codes and have the chance to experience Schwan’s and post my Schwan’s Home Delivery Review. This was my first time using Schwan’s in a couple of years, and I was looking forward to trying them out again!

The hardest part of my Schwan’s Home Delivery experience? Deciding what to order! 😉 They have so many tasty options, that it took me a while to narrow down my choices for my first order. I ended up deciding on four products: Zesty Jalapeno Bites, Multi Grain Loaf, Super Sweet Cut Corn …

Snowplace Like Home by Tonya Kappes – Review #HoHoHoRAT

Snowplace Like Home by Tonya Kappes – Review #HoHoHoRAT

My Thoughts

Snowplace Like Home by Tonya Kappes is a quick, light holiday read. Hallie doesn’t have holiday spirit. She feels that died when her parents were killed in a car crash at Christmastime long ago. She tends to just ignore the holiday season and focus on work. Her Aunt Grace, who doesn’t have much, but loves Christmas, wants Hallie to come and visit. Hallie usually tries to avoid it, because it is too painful to try to enjoy the holidays.

This was a sweet story about getting your holiday spirit back, finding what’s important, and even experiencing a touch of Christmas magic. I liked this short Christmas story. It is nice that it is also a prequel to Tonya’s book, Carpe …
