Product Review - MAG-LITE Solitaire Torch

Hi Guys,

Before the invention of camera flash in mobile phones and their usage as Flashlight or torch, there used to be a time when we did required actual flashlights. I really wanted to use something flashy which can help me when I am able to use or find my smartphone. I did an online research on amazon and found out that MAG-Lite is the most popular in this category.
The torch comes in a nice and easy to carry plastic box. It can also be carried as a key chain. I got this from the points collected from some rewards based system of retailers for shopping in their shops.

 The Maglite Solitaire gives great high intensity light beam using a single AAA size battery by it's reflective surface. Using it's twist focussing head, the light can be changed from spot to flood. 

The biggest drawback in this LED world they are still using the ages old yellow light bulbs. 

  
But overall, this is a nice accessory and really helps me in need when I am searching for something in low light areas like the drawers etc. 

Let there be light where there is none using MAGLITE SOLITAIRE! 

Cheers!!!

Photo Walk - Gardens of the Nature 5

Hi Guys,

Nature is so unique and brings in a lot of satisfaction to the heart if you open your eyes to it. I enjoyed a lot of it as my room was just next to the back garden in London. Some of these snaps were taken when Roses were in full bloom in there. I really enjoyed watching them grow and they also brings in a lot of fragrance in the air. 

A bunch of them together filling in the colors of the rainbow. A bouquet of these when presented together can bring SMILES to anyone & anywhere in the world.

The unique symmetry of the flowers and it's whole build makes you wonder the design capabilities that nature has. Even Burj Khalifa design is inspired by a flower which is also mentioned on it's wikipedia page.

Leaving you all with the though of fresh rains on the rose leaves and the several memories that strikes your heart and brains at the same time. Everyone will have a memory that they will remember seeing the fresh dew drops on the flowers.
Keep enjoying nature and I hope that I will be able to capture more soon here in Johannesburg.

Cheers!!!

Indiblogger #Indispire - Five Places I wanted to visit

Hey Guys,

Breaking away from the regular travel destination theme of this week's #Indispire, I thought of some of the moments where I want myself to be once again from my life. If there is some time machine or camera that can show me where I was in that timeline of my life, I will be more than happy and amazed.

1. I wanted to see the place and room where I was born. The very first moments of my existence on this planet earth. Crying or wanting to sleep? How do I look like? Yeah, I know, I looked liked me but in real...how was I on my first minute of birth? Who all were there? What was their reactions to listen to this news of my birth? Who was the first one to take me into his arms? Who kissed me first? When I got to see my mother and father? All this stuff is the place where I want to travel as my first dream destination of my existence. 


2. The very first day of my school. How was I like - wanting to go or not? How was I feeling seeing a lot of kids on the gates of the school? Whom did I first met as a child on my first day at school? Who were my friends? With whom I shared my lunch box with? or didn't shared at all? Was I crying the whole time or slept for a while on the bench? Who was my teacher or maid that took care of me in the school? What was I thinking about my parents to drop me to school all alone in midst of rush of kids? These are some of the questions that I wanted to get answers of from my travel to my second phase of life.

3. The very first salary cheque or cash payment which I received for my efforts for whole of the month. Was I happy? What did I do with the money? What was I feeling? Who congratulated me? Where did I went to party? Did I visited some temple or donated something to charity? What was my expression when I saw the salary amount in my account or hands? Who gave me my first salary? It was the biggest struggle in my life to earn my first salary that I really wanted to enjoy now using the travel destination machine. 

4. The birth of my first child. How happy was I becoming the father of someone looking like an angel? What feelings I had as a new generation has arrived in our family? What did I said to my wife? How eager and nervous I was to hold my daughter in my hands? How did the kid react to my holding? Did she cried? Did she smiled when I took her in my arms? What was the reaction of my family and relatives? Who all came to visit my wife in the hospital? What was the reaction of my friends when I broke the news to them? Did I slept or kept looking at the angel? Did I comfort or thanked my wife after this complicated process of child birth? I really wanted to go and relive this second last destination of my life. 

5. The final one is the last day of my life on this planet Earth as I say good bye to everyone. Is it informed death or I died in an instance? Is it a natural death or accident? How happy or sad is my family on my death? Who all loved me and cared about me? What did I do wrong in my life? What are the people's reactions after my death? Is my family ok? Who is taking care of them after I died? What was people's opinion about my life? Are they cursing me or really feeling pain in their hearts? What I have left for my family? Is it a lot of debt or plenty of income for their survival? How many of my company colleagues/bosses are attending my funeral? The time I spent away from home for work was it worthwhile? These all questions gives a lot of perspective as I am on my deathbed. This is the final destination that I wanted to see today or asap before I actually reach there. 

Yeah, I did wanted to visit the day of my marriage once again, so that I could stop myself from doing it. But if I would have stopped it, I would not become father to a lovely daughter and could not travel there so I have dropped this dream destination out of my list to keep it at 5. Else, surely I would love to revisit the day I got married and check out my confusion and happiness as whole family is celebrating and dancing in this big fat wedding. There are always some funny moments in everyone's marriage that you will always remember. It can be some relative or some ritual or someone dancing with full on alcohol effect or whatever the case may be. 

Till that time, I reach my final destination - I am living in this longest destination of life called MARRIAGE!

Cheers!!!

Product Review - Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies

Hi Guys, 

Some things in life brings back your childhood and I became a child when I opened the pack of Royal Dansk Danish Butter Cookies from the house of Kelsen Group. I skipped my regular meal wanting to eat all the pack of 15 rich & mouth watering tasty biscuits just like I used to do when I was a kid for some of my favorite eating stuff.

I got these Butter Cookies pack from Royal Dansk to blog about the same but unlike regular winners (on facebook) who wins a big TIN of cookies, I got this small pack of 125grams. I am now jealous of all the winners who not only wins these divine tasting cookies but also a chance to win awesome holidays every quarter. To know more about the same, follow the brand on facebook or twitter. They have contests going all year around on their social media channels. Check them out.
The Royal Dansk Butter cookies in the box comes in a silver metallic foil which keeps the freshness intact. Unlike my last experience with Kjeldsens - Oat & Cranberry Cookies I didn't threw the packing which really helped my cookies to stay fresh without any moisture entering them. 


If you really want to try some new cookies which are way beyond what you have ate in Fournos or any other bakery, do buy a pack and try it for yourself. These are not only great but also leaves a butter taste on your tongue to feel the richness of the product for some time. The sweetness of the cookies is just perfect and I shared the pack with my friends from work. They wanted more of it and my leftover cookies were over in no time.

Now I am really looking forward to win the big TIN on Royal Dansk - Easter goodies contest or I can accept these cookies for the review of any of your products. :-) I would definitely recommend that you can think of these cookies to gift to your loved ones this festival season.

The 125grams box contains 3 cookies each in 5 textures and each one plays a different game with your tongue. I really loved all of them and I want some more of them asap. I will check all the stores this Easter to find my Easter Eggs as Royal Dansk Butter Cookies. Enjoy the festivities and long holidays!!!

Cheers!!!

Product Review - Mobi Headphonies MP3 Speakers

Hi Guys,

Sometimes in life, you come across somethings for which you have very less expectations and they perform beyond the same and you feel amazed. I have experienced something like that with Mobi Headphonies Ninja & Smiley. I thought them to be just good looking speakers with built in battery which will work for 1-2 hours maximum. But on the contrary these small speakers are powerful on only in their sound output but also has got great battery life. On a full recharge, I am using them for more than six hours now. Outstanding performance!!!

I saw them for the first time at GAME, Rosebank. As GAME is a part of WALMART so they get a lot of products from USA. These small great looking speakers comes in different variations. I loved the Ninja one and immediately bought in one of their REDUCED to GO sale. The price I paid for them and the value I am getting out of them is very very high. I recommended it to my many friends and they bought all of the pieces available in store. 
These speakers connect using the cable that comes with it to your laptop or ipod or mobile phone for your personal listening purposes. You can also use the Aux cable to connect also. 

The Mobi Headphonies hi-fi amplified MP3 speakers are located behind the head of the character you choose and AUX IN in located at the bottom of the character. The voice quality is clear and crisp, though at high volumes it starts to bring in noise disturbances. The lithium-ion battery charges quickly within 1-2 hours and gives a long music output with your ipod etc.
The graphics on the speaker body is simply breathtaking. These speakers are aimed at younger generation and kids. I use them while I write my blogposts on my www.thelifesway.com and it really serves the purpose. Keeps me entertained and doesn't disturb others at home by the kind of music I like. 

The same cable works as charging cable and aux in cable. Also you can play them while the speakers are being recharged. Headphonies are enough to fill the volume in a small room for your music in the background levels. These are not meant for dancing purposes. These can be easily carried in your bag or can be attached to your car keys if you are comfortable with little big key chain.

I really loved Mobi Headphonies and they have performed beyond my expectations. Go for it! 

Cheers!!!
