PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA

As everyone knows I’m a #BzzAgent and I’m so excited because last night my friend and I got to try some of Kroger’s Private Selection Pizza. Now I don’t know about everyone else but I am an avid pizza eater and always looking for the next best pie! They were easy to find in the pizza aisle due to the sleek, dark appearance of the product packaging. The pizza’s were affordable at an average cost of about $5.99. They pizza only had 2-3 servings per box which I thought was small. I don’t know that I would eat this as a meal with others but it would be a great pizza to cut into small slices and use as finger food for parties.  Last night we tried two different kinds; Private Selection Barbeque Chicken Pizza and Private Selection Pepperoni and Roasted Garlic.

Private Selection Barbeque Chicken Pizza

• OMG this pizza crisped up perfectly. What I liked the most about it was the sauce. It was tangy, spicy, but not overpowering all at the same time. I have a weakness for onions and the red onions added sweetness to the pizza that was to die for. The only negative I found was the chicken…it was a little dry.

Private Selection Pepperoni and Roasted Garlic

• I was disappointed with this pizza. L I enjoyed the pepperoni and the cheese but I was very upset to find huge diced pieces of garlic that drowned out all the other flavors of the pizza. It was an uncomfortable amount of garlic. Maybe the garlic could be minced or cooked down into the sauce.

All in all…. Kroger’s Private Selection pizza was a SUCCESS. I would definitely try other pizzas in the product line and recommend the brand to anyone I know. Thanks for reading… gotta get another slice!

I’ve Renewed My Vows To Music [Day 3]

To me, this artist is so unique but so untapped in my social circles. SIA is not only one of my more recent musical addictions but she’s been a lyrical inspiration for all things upside down and inside out in my life. She speaks from the soul in a honest and sometimes uncanny way. Her voice is raw and slurry. Sometimes I can’t understand what she’s saying but that’s the mystery that I like so much. She’s known for her song “BREATHE ME” from the TV series Six Feet Under. Its eerie and inviting from some cold dark place. Here’s a live version.

This got me interested in her. Once I heard that, I had to check out more. Here’s a song that anyone without her cd “We Are Born” probably hasn’t heard. And if you own it, you probably listen to it repeatedly.  Its a great song about knowing what you want and what you deserve in a relationship..This is an awesome acoustic version! It’s called “BE GOOD TO ME“.

Lastly….. I love social media outlets….because, a reader of my blog let me know that I was missing out on a really good cover by none other than Ellie Goulding. Check out her awesome cover of “ONLY GIRL IN THE WORLD” by Rhianna. It’s folky and her choices in the arrangement I just love. She totally made this song a tad bit more intimate for me. The strings in the background are awesome, adding suspense to her voice.

Ellie Goulding!

I’m really excited because she’s got this fairy falsetto on a dance track. Her song “LIGHTS” has an addictive bass beat and it just makes me want to get up and dance. On top of that, the words are positive and this is now put on repeat. I’m very interested in checking out what else she’s got going on because I think she’d be good on a ballad track. I have a feeling she can tap into her emotions and project that through a song.

 

I’ve Renewed My Vows to Music [day 1]

It’s been an adventure trying to ID3 tag all the songs in my iTunes library. I have so much music it is ridiculous. After going through about 100 songs, renaming them, organizing them, I realized…. I hadn’t really discovered anything new lately. I decided I was going to start making time to branch out and listen to new things. And when I find some artist that is just too awesome or maybe kinda lame, I’m gonna talk about it. Today, I heard the strangest song. It’s called SWAGGER JAGGER, and it samples that ol’ tune “Oh My Darlin’”. How creative. It had a good beat and was catchy. I thought the vocals were mmmeh, ok… but with time, Cher Lloyd could make some club bangin hits! Check it Out
