Sorry for the delay folks but I was out practically all week preparing for the weekend. My family got together this past Saturday to celebrate my grandmother's 74th birthday at her house so I was quite the busy bee. I just wanted to let everyone know that I truly adore my abuela (grandma). She is the world to me so spending quality time with my grandma and the rest of the family is definitely something I enjoy and will cherish for years to come. Things like that are priceless - there's no … [Read more...]
Olay Total Effects Body Wash – Review & Giveaway
March 30, 2010 by
Ever since I was a little girl, mi abuela (my grandma) always told me to make sure I use moisturizer everyday and to protect my skin when I'm outdoors with sunscreen. She should know, her skin is phenomenal - so soft and young looking considering she is in her 70's. When I was a teenager, I caught my dad applying my mom's Oil of Olay face lotion. I laughed because I told him that was for women. He stated it's face moisturizer with hardly any scent so it's perfect for men too - you should … [Read more...]
Crisco Olive Oil Review and Giveaway
March 29, 2010 by
Extra-Virgin Olive Oil has been a staple in my kitchen (and my mom's) for many years. Growing up, my mom used to serve the family boiled potatoes, meat (such as chicken or pork), a side of veggies and EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) to pour over the potatoes. It is so delicious. It's still one of my favorites meals today as an adult. Olive oil, as you know, has many health benefits. First of all, it's heart healthy - it won't clog up your arteries, it has vitamin E and it's full of … [Read more...]

February 19, 2010 by 2 Comments
My kids loved taking baths when they were babies but when they got older, they wanted to "feel big" and start showering as opposed to taking baths. My 4 year old loves baths but also loves the shower. She said it's an indoor rainfall. So she takes baths when she wants to play and showers when she wants some "rain". Suave Kids® has started a new campaign, Wash Them Grow, to encourage parents to turn bath time into quality family time. Suave Kids encourages parents to teach, nurture and … [Read more...]
