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...]

I Heart Jonas
January 29, 2010 by Leave a Comment
This past weekend, my daughter and her friends were just hanging out in her room just playing and talking until I showed them the brand new I Heart Jonas on DVD. They quickly changed their minds about just talking and wanted to watch the Jonas on the big screen. I had popcorn and soda all ready for them and they were in heaven. You see, the girls are big Jonas fans and I could understand why. The boys are pretty cute and sweet too. I know if I was their age, I would have a crush on them but … [Read more...]
LG Chocolate Touch
January 28, 2010 by 2 Comments
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of LG Chocolate Touch. All opinions are 100% mine. I've been a Verizon customer for almost 2 years now. Sprint was my wireless provider for 8 years before I switched over to Verizon and I'm so glad I did the switcheroo. I can't tell you how many times my calls were dropped or the many times where I didn't have reception to make a call when I was a Sprint customer. I couldn't even use my cell phone in my own home; it was so annoying. I can … [Read more...]
The Boys Are Back | Movie Review
January 26, 2010 by 3 Comments
I received The Boys Are Back on DVD a few weeks ago but it wasn't until last night that I was able to finally view it. If you haven't seen the movie when it came out in theaters, don't fret - It comes out on DVD today so you can rent it or better yet buy the DVD because it was a great movie. In my opinion, if a movie makes you cry or even make your eyes water just a bit, then it did its job. The Boys Are Back was inspired by a true story and directed by Scott Hicks. Joe Warr, played by … [Read more...]
My Obsession with Coupons Coincides with my Dreams.
January 22, 2010 by 9 Comments
Cutting coupons has been my obsession for as long as I can remember. Saving money is something I love to do, especially when it means that I can splurge on other things, like lattes and all that good stuff. ;) But when the obsession creeps into my dreams and bad things happen, then there may be a problem. Here’s what happened in my dream: I came in through my door from being out (I have no idea where I came from; the dream started out like that) and noticed my sitter rummaging through my … [Read more...]
