{Review} The Snugg iPad 2 Executive Case Cover and Stand in Black Leather

The Snugg iPad 2 Executive Case Cover and Stand

I recently received the Snugg iPad 2 Executive Case Cover and Stand in black leather for review and allow me to say that I am completely in love with it. I'm a proud owner of an iPad for about two years now and have been through iPad cases like crazy. Being a frugal mom, I haven't invested a lot of money on iPad cases. Consequently, I've ended up with low-quality cases. In just a few months of normal wear and tear, the cases start to rip on the sides and the stitching pulls away at the seams. … [Read more...]

20130513-203240.jpg

During the Getting Gorgeous event, Thyme Maternity was there to showcase their wonderful products for mothers and new moms-to-be. I'm not pregnant or even close to becoming a new mommy since I have three kids of my own and my shop is shut down (just being real here..lol) but since my co-worker is expecting her first baby, I wanted to find out what Thyme Maternity was all about. The people representing Thyme Maternity at Getting Gorgeous were awesome! They were full of information and … [Read more...]

I’m a Coffee Snob — There, I Said It!

Coffee

I cannot deny I'm a coffee snob. And it’s all thanks to my beloved Keurig Brewer. It's always ready to go with just one button, always consistent and never has any issues, thank goodness! It gives me delicious coffee each and every time. I can brew it strong or weak - however I want it and it doesn’t JUST make coffee - it makes so much more! After owning a Keurig for over 3 years, I can't drink coffee from just anywhere. There's a few places where I get coffee from just because I know … [Read more...]

First Alert P1000 Atom Smoke Alarm Review

First Alert Logo

Did you know that over one-third (37 percent) of home fire deaths occur in homes without smoke alarms? That's a lot if you ask me. That is exactly why the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) recommends that smoke alarms be installed in every bedroom and on every level of a home. In addition, alarms should be tested on a monthly basis and batteries changed at least two times a year. If you have a bad memory like me, the best time to check your smoke alarms is during daylight savings time … [Read more...]

{Review} Wellness Brewed K-Cup Packs #YourPerfectCup

Green Mountain Coffee Logo

New year, new resolutions - isn't that the norm with practically everyone once the old year is over? I used to make New Year’s resolutions but I stopped. I noticed I wasn't keeping them (it was usually lose weight & eat right) and it got annoying. I was frustrated with myself for not sticking it through so I will not make any New Year’s resolutions. But...... I will say that I did vow to make better choices to start incorporating more fruits and vegetables into mine and my … [Read more...]

Coffee Talk and a Giveaway for a New K-Cup Countertop Storage Drawer #YourPerfectCup

20130213-194739.jpg

I've confessed my love for coffee numerous times before. I've even had my blog redone with a coffee theme because I'm that obsessed with coffee. It's something I look forward to every morning and (confession time) multiple times throughout the day. As soon as the aroma hits my nose, I immediately become mesmerized. The smell of good, fresh brewed coffee is one of the best scents in the world, in my opinion. I remember when I was about 6 years old, my abuela (grandmother) would serve me café … [Read more...]

Creating Recipes with Flatout Hungry Girl Foldit Flatbreads. #Flatouthot

Walgreens

When I think about creating recipes for my family, I usually wing it. Whatever I have on-hand is usually what I work with. It can't be too complicated or difficult to make and it must be simple and easy so I can feed my family of five quickly. Most of the time, I'd like to have dinner on the table within an hour, so whatever makes my life easier, that's the route I'm taking! When The Motherhood invited me to participate in their Flatout program with Walgreens, I immediately said yes. First of … [Read more...]
