We got the Flash season 7 free in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own
I was so excited to get season 7 of the Flash. I missed a lot of this season not knowing when it started I was about 5 episodes off. Anyone who watches the Flash knows a lot happened during those 5 episodes and I had missed way to much to catch up. I was finally able to catch up and now I am ready for this season. Flash is one of my favorite super heroes and he is one of the few in the DC universe that I would call a super hero. With the speed of light he always cares about not only his family and friends, but also everyone else in the universe.
After last season’s cliffhanger which saw the brilliant and powerful Eva McCulloch victorious and still-at-large in Central City, Barry Allen/The Flash must regroup in order to stop her and bring back his missing wife. With help from the rest of Team Flash, Barry will ultimately defeat Mirror Monarch and reunite with Iris West-Allen. But in doing so, he’ll unleash two more devastating threats: one that could tear his marriage apart… and another that will lay siege to Central City and change the future forever.
With Blu-ray’s unsurpassed picture and sound, The Flash: The Complete Seventh Season Blu-ray release will include 1080p Full HD Video with DTS-HD Master Audio for English 5.1. Featuring all 18 episodes from the seventh season in high definition, as well as a digital code of the season (available in the U.S. only).
The Flash stars Grant Gustin (Arrow, Glee), Candice Patton (The Game), Danielle Panabaker (Sky High, Friday the 13th), Carlos Valdes (Arrow, Once), Danielle Nicolet (Central Intelligence), Kayla Compton (Making Moves), Brandon McKnight (The Shape of Water) and Jesse L. Martin (Law & Order). Based on the characters from DC, The Flash is produced by Berlanti Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (Arrow, Supergirl, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Riverdale), Eric Wallace (Teen Wolf, Z Nation, Eureka), Sarah Schechter (Batwoman, Riverdale, Black Lightning, Supergirl) and Jonathan Butler & Gabriel Garza (Bella and the Bulldogs).

My Review
This movie is a fast paced sci-if thriller like something out of the Twilight Zone, and keeps your interest throughout. I found myself trying to find ways for the characters to escape, in my mind, throughout the movie. This movie has a deep meaning to it for me, that life goes by quickly and you shouldn’t let yourself get caught up in the little things. The ending will have you surprised.
This chilling, mysterious new thriller follows a family on a tropical holiday who discover that the secluded beach where they are relaxing for a few hours is somehow causing them to age rapidly … reducing their entire lives into a single day.
BONUS FEATURES ON 4K ULTRA HD, BLU-RAYTM, DVD AND DIGITAL:
DELETED SCENES
SHYAMALAN FAMILY BUSINESS – We look at what Night’s two daughters, Ishana and Saleka, contributed to the film and how collaborating with family made filming outside Philadelphia still feel like home.
ALL THE BEACH IS A STAGE – Shooting a film in a wide-open space is challenging because angles have to be created, much like theatre. Night explains the significance of his camera movements and the cast discuss the unique experience of filming without coverage.
NIGHTMARES IN PARADISE – When making a film like OLD, finding the right shooting location is everything. Hear the story of why Night took the production to the Dominican Republic and how Mother Nature both challenged and helped the production.
A FAMILY IN THE MOMENT – Gael Garcia Bernal, Vicky Krieps, Thomasin McKenzie and Alex Wolff recount one very special, emotional night of filming that brought them closer than they ever imagined.

When families can, we should dine together, but sometimes it’s hard to find the time. Each family member shares what they enjoyed doing that day during dinner. Getting together to eat can be challenging due to obligations such as work, school, and sports practices. Yet, studies have demonstrated that home-cooked meals are healthier and happier for families. Every chance you get to eat together should be taken advantage of, whether it is every night or only once a week, in the morning before school or late at night for dessert. You’re about to learn how to prepare family meals that will keep everyone healthy, inspire important conversations, and remove the stress of gathering around the dinner table.
To begin with, schedule time for planning on Sunday. Make sure all of the ingredients you want to use are ready to use for the recipes you plan to make in advance. For meal planners, you can choose the ingredients you want for the recipes you plan to make. Even if you don’t like to plan your meals in advance, preparing ingredients for your meals in advance can save you time. For example, you could mince garlic, chop onions, peel vegetables and cut them into sticks. If you’re not a fan of preparation arrange a grocery store delivery to help reduce your time spent on this task.
Get Your Kids To Help
Allow your children to assist as suitable for their ages, such as cutting and slicing for young children, and juicing and shredding for older children and adults. Give them shortcuts for doing things, like making roasted potatoes in the instant pot. Little kids can also easily make pizza. You just need cheese and toppings. You can increase your child’s enthusiasm for both cooking and eating by involving them in the preparation process. One can go a long way if one takes pride in his/her work.
Batch Cook
You can prepare large quantities of meals as another great meal preparation strategy. It seems strange to create just one pot of sauce that would only serve one meal after you can easily double the recipe and have enough left over to serve additional meals over the next few weeks? Lasagne, chilli, soups, and stews freeze well, making them ideal for storing in large quantities. Put meal-sized pieces into freezer-safe containers or bags that are the appropriate size for your family and set up an assembly line with your children.
Give The Kids More Choice
If meals are interactive, children enjoy choosing their own toppings, and when adults prepare meals together, meals are always more enjoyable. Baked potato bars with your own toppings are cheap and easy to prepare, and baked potatoes last a long time. Nacho bars, taco fests, make-your-own tortilla stations, or oatmeal bars are all other good options. It is just a matter of preparing the base ingredients and setting out toppings the family will enjoy.
These four tips should help you to make cooking as a family easier. Do you have any other tips that could help? Please share them in the comments below.

FREE SHIPPING FOR ALL MILK FROTHERS MAKE RICH, CREAMY FROTH IN SECONDS
We are coffee lovers in my home, and my husband loves cappuccino.. The Milk Boss Milk Frother gives that professional finishing touch to your latte, cappuccino, macchiato, or hot chocolate. I can’t believe how easy it is to make delicious foamy milk froth for our drinks at home. No more expensive trips to the coffee shop. It really pays off to have my own handheld electric frother. Not only do I save time and money by making drinks at home, but it’s compact enough to take on vacation, to the office and wherever I go. I feel like a barista!

MATCHA WHISKING, KETO COFFEE & MORE Customers say our handheld milk frother works better than a manual matcha whisk for making matcha tea and works far better than a fork or whisk for keto bulletproof coffee. Our milk frother works very well to mix nutritious protein powder drinks, so you don’t have to use a blender. Aerate eggs with our electric forther for the smoothest omelets and scrambled eggs you have ever had. Give healthy shakes and smoothies a kick by adding whey powder or flavored extracts.
This is one of my favorite new kitchen gadgets. I keep it next to my stove. I was tired of laying my spoons on my counter top, on a paper towel or plate. I wanted something less wasteful, more functional, and aesthetically pleasing to look at. This fit all of those attributes. It’s even dishwasher safe top rack.
I want to add that this is also perfect for makeup brushes to rest on when doing your makeup. As a crafter, I can think of lots of uses for this as well. The non slip bottom makes it nice for bearers to use, and even painters to rest small brushes, although I am not sure if paint drips would be removable on this surface.
