Euro-Pro Shark Deluxe Steam Pocket Mop (Review)

A few months ago, I was contacted by Shark to try out the new Euro-Pro Shark Deluxe Steam Pocket Mop in my home.  It's an eco-friendly product that turns ordinary tap water into a powerful steam cleaner and sanitizer removing 99.99% of harmful bacteria and providing a healthier and more effective alternative to chemical cleaning. I was intrigued by the product because since I have three kids and two pets at home, I don't like using harmful chemicals to clean the floors.  I've wanted a … [Read more...]

Wordless Wednesday | Sesame Street Live: When Elmo Grows Up

Disclosure: We were given two tickets to see Sesame Street Live: When Elmo Grows Up by Madison Square Garden. No other compensation was given. Thanks to Madison Square Garden, my daughter and I were able to meet and greet Cookie Monster and Elmo along with other bloggers before their first show last Thursday. My four year old was ecstatic that she was going to see her favorite characters (Elmo & Cookie Monster) on stage.   This was a huge surprise for her because she didn't know anything … [Read more...]

Kodak (who claims, with some clever ads on my sidebar, that we can at least partially knock off our economic worry with a printer) and JuiceBoxJungle sponsored me to write this post, and they asked me to talk about the top and bottom3 things I think/worry about as a mom.   Where do I begin?  Since I'm a mom of 3 kids (2 girls ages 10 & 4, 1 boy age 13), there are many things that I think about.  I often ask myself, are my children happy? Will they hate me if I punish them?  Am I being … [Read more...]

1-800-FLOWERS.COM Holiday Workshop & $100 Gift Card Giveaway

In the beginning of December, I was invited to an event with Julie Mulligan, Jim McCann, the CEO and Founder of 1-800-Flowers.com and several people from the 1-800-Flowers.com team.  The event was meant to teach a few bloggers how to create a holiday flower tree centerpiece using different types of flowers and decorations.  I've always been a 1-800-Flowers.com fan ever since I can remember.  I've sent my mother, a few aunts and my grandmother bouquets for Mother's Day almost every year and … [Read more...]

You can show your support by wearing red today to celebrate National Wear Red Day.  Or you can choose your very own Wear Red Day at your office or your community to teach awareness and … [Read more...]
