KC Tees Giveaway!

Karen Crawford from KC Tees is giving one of my readers a chance to win one of her fabulous shirts. Recently she sent me a sample t-shirt and I fell in love with it.  It was so comfortable, soft  and very stylish. I know another chica would love to wear one of these shirts proudly because the messages on these shirts are both positive and inspiring. Mother's Day is just around the corner so this shirt would be a great gift for that perfect mom, sister, cousin, daughter or friend.  If you … [Read more...]

You like eating out at restaurants?

Well, if you're like me, then you like eating at restaurants. There's nothing better than having someone serve you hot food and then take your plate away so someone else can wash it. You pay for your food, leave a tip, get up and leave. No mess to clean up afterward and definitely no dishes to clean.  Now that's what I call service. But when I  do go out to eat, I often wonder how the clean the kitchen is.  I wonder if the chefs are clean, if they're wearing gloves while touching the … [Read more...]

Thank you for being a friend…

Although I didn't know her, I was deeply saddened by the news of Bea Arthur passing away this past Saturday.  She was born in New York City in 1922.  She was 86 years old.  She died of cancer in her Los Angeles home (and is survived by her two sons and two grandchildren. She was a great actress and one of the best girls (in my opinion)  in the show, The Golden Girls.  I laughed at every show.  She was very talented and very funny. If you've never had the privilege to see one of her shows, … [Read more...]

Every Latina should have a little bit of KC in their life!

I had the privileged to try one of Karen Crawford's tee shirts from KCTees. Her tees are about Peace, Love, Faith, Beauty, Unity and Hope. The line was created with the objective of inspiring integrity, respect and self-esteem with messages we can all embrace.  You can also see them in several different magazines.  Check out Charlie Sheen's wife, Brooke wearing it proudly. I was really excited because it was not only something I can wear, it was from a Latina designer and she donates … [Read more...]

WW – Zing, Zang, Zoom!

We went to the circus about two weeks ago and we had a ball. The kids are still talking about it. I had fun but I felt bad for some of the animals, especially for the elephants. I hope they start taking good care of their animals because without them, there is no circus. Anyway, here are some pictures for today's Wordless Wednesday. Enjoy! A big thanks to Mom Central for providing me with the code "Mom" for a great discount of $15 each ticket. … [Read more...]

There’s alway a funny kid’s moment at my house!

My four year old daughter LOVES to dress herself. She dresses and undresses herself all the time. If I try to help her, she gets upset.  So I leave her alone. She is a very independent girl when it comes to that. So one day, after running a whole lot of errands, she mentioned to me that she was getting tired and asked if she could put on her pajamas. I was in the middle of cooking dinner so I told her she knew where her pajamas were and that she can go to her room and change. She … [Read more...]
