A DRINK YOU CAN FEEL GOOD ABOUT-HAUS APÉRITIF REVIEW

When I first spotted Haus on gram it was a love at first moment! The packaging is drop dead gorge! And as I read more about the company and Apéritif Culture I became immediately obsessed. I knew I had to experience them. So I reached out and was so very happy they wanted to partner with Go French Yourself!

HAUS APÉRITIF REVIEW

Haus is a new(ish) wine based apéritif, made from all-natural ingredients on a farm in Sonoma County, California by husband and wife team Helena and Woody. Their apéritifs are made with with only real ingredients (farm to bottle) - no sketchy additives. Love that they have less sugar too…..I really try to avoid too many drinks for this reason!

Here are a few of the ingredients they use to make their superb apéritifs.

December Beauty Product Round-Up
December Beauty Product Round-Up

A new year is approaching and I made it a personal goal to keep blogging consistently this year…but still trying to simplify the process and not allowing it to take up too much of my time (as I’ve been known to spend hours writing blogs). Over the last few years, I’ve noticed there’s been an increase in people abandoning their blogs altogether but for me, I want to still have this space to talk as much as I do if you were to meet me in person. Instagram is great, of course, but there’s only so much information people can take on a daily basis, it can become so overwhelming and we can end up feeling our brains being oversaturated and close to exploding!

For me, I love talking about beauty products: I love testing products! I love the branding element of the industry; I love finding products that work and telling others!

Diffusers And Candles That Smell Exactly Like Christmas-Alora Ambiance
Diffusers And Candles That Smell Exactly Like Christmas-Alora Ambiance

Christmas is a time of celebration, festivities, food, family, and friends typically-all though this year this part looks quite different! Pleasant memories from childhood are re-ignited with the aroma of Christmas cookies, pine trees, and Christmas dinner in the oven!

I just love the many wonderful aromas of this beautiful magical season! And reed diffusers from Alora Ambiance provide a consistent aroma throughout the day all throughout my condo and they subtly impact my emotions and mood. They make for an easy and ideal way to create a festive and positive environment. As most of our time during the Christmas period is spent indoors and without family this year- we can turn to Alora Ambiance to enhance our moods and ward off depression while creating pleasant memories or reminding us of happy times past!

Concrete Planters + Lazy Susans + Gift Boxes- The Makerage
Concrete Planters + Lazy Susans + Gift Boxes- The Makerage

I am so excited to team up with The Makerage again this season! I needed a smaller round Lazy Susan for the area by my stove. The current setup was not working for me whatsoever. (showing that on Instagram today) This tinier round Lazy Susan is a great option for housing the items you reach for on a regular basis while cooking! I needed some easy access here for my salt and pepper, olive oils, etc. and it’ truly just perfection in my space. It was exactly what I was looking for!
