Music Ace Deluxe | Review & Giveaway
November 24, 2009 by 32 Comments
A couple of months ago, I was sent the Music Ace Deluxe to review. I decided to review it because my daughter has been playing the violin for 2 years now and she loves it. Even though she is not a beginner violin player, she wanted to add another instrument so I thought this would be perfect. She's thinking of learning how to play the clarinet. When I was in junior high school, I played the clarinet and violin and I loved it. Music was my favorite subject. I would count the minutes until … [Read more...]

Prayers For Anissa Should Be The Trend On Twitter
November 20, 2009 by 3 Comments
You must be wondering why I'm writing about Anissa. Well, she is someone that I've never met, never knew about til' just a few days ago and I never knew about her blog. It's sad that I had to find out the way I did. I felt I had to write about her because Anissa (from what I've been reading from tweets & blog posts from all over the blogosphere) is a mom of 3 (like me), a blogger (like me) and an around great person (like me, I hope..). From the photos I've seen, she is such a nice … [Read more...]

My CVS Deals for This Week
November 20, 2009 by 2 Comments
It has been months since I had a great time at CVS (aka getting stuff for almost free) so I thought I'd let you all know how I managed to get back $18.00 in cold, hard CVS cash! In the past, I would always shop at CVS to get the best deals because I would use coupons plus extra-care bucks too. You can read my past posts HERE and HERE on how you can get yourself started on saving at CVS too. This week was a fabulous week for getting some well-needed items, especially for the flu season. I'm … [Read more...]
Almost Wordless Wednesday | RedPlum Style
November 18, 2009 by 2 Comments
Yesterday I attended a RedPlum event at the beautiful W Hotel - The Tuscany. The reason for the event was to showcase their Holiday gift guides for everyone you know for just under $30. The gifts are low-cost, practical and thoughtful as well. The whole area was decorated with items you can buy at their site and the tables were decorated by one of my favorite stores, Ikea. At the end of the event, they raffled off a table setting to take home from a choice of two (both were absolutely … [Read more...]
Shoffee.com is Sponsoring Our Keurig Elite Brewer Giveaway
November 17, 2009 by 124 Comments
The Keurig brand has had a great reputation and it’s growing every day. Because of that, I’ve wanted one for the last few years because I’ve heard many great things about the brewer and to be honest, I’m really the only person that drinks “coffee maker” coffee since my husband is an instant coffee drinker, yuk, I know. So, whenever I made coffee in the coffee maker, I had to throw the rest away because I only wanted one cup. So, when I found out that www.Shoffee.com will be giving me one … [Read more...]
Broke-ology | A Must See Play!
November 17, 2009 by Leave a Comment
My mom and I recently went to see Broke-ology. Never heard of it? It's basically a fantastic play about a family that goes through life in the ghetto streets of Kansas City and they try to figure out what to do with their future. Drama happens here and there but they stick together as a family, no matter what. The play is directed by the same person that directed "In the Heights" (another great play), Thomas Kail. After hearing so many great things about the play, I was really excited … [Read more...]
Trident and Smiles Across America
November 16, 2009 by 1 Comment
Ten days ago, I was involved in an online briefing among other bloggers with actress Jennie Garth and Dr. Dan Jones. The purpose of the briefing was to learn about the campaign called Smiles Across America®, which is the signature program from Oral Health America that supports dental services to thousands of children in underserved communities nationwide. We wanted to help spread the word about oral care and education for your kids. Did you know that 51 million school hours were missed last … [Read more...]
