Disclosure: This post is part of a sponsored campaign with Verizon FiOS (#SomosFiOS). All thoughts and opinions expressed here are 100% my own. Growing up in a bilingual home meant I was able to communicate in both Spanish and English -- in my own special way. It was and still is tough for me to speak correct Spanish because I was the type of kid that never wanted to make mistakes trying to speak Spanish to my abuelos when I was at their house. I was a shy, soft-spoken child that was often … [Read more...]

Verizon FiOS Mobile App Makes Cooking Fun! #SomosFiOS

Disclosure: This post is part of a sponsored campaign with Verizon FiOS (#SomosFiOS). All thoughts and opinions expressed here are 100% my own. Let’s face it. It’s summer. It’s hot out. The sun is shining. The flowers are in full bloom. And the last thing anyone wants to do is slave over a hot stove to cook a hot meal when they get home from work. I rather let hubby take over the kitchen and cook whatever his heart desires while I'm outside enjoying the beautiful summer weather. Whatever he … [Read more...]
Here’s to Another Year as a K-Cup® Ambassador. #YourPerfectCup
July 29, 2012 by 5 Comments
The past year has been a busy but great one, especially with being a part of the Keurig crew, aka K-Cup® Ambassador. I'm now entering the second year as a K-Cup Ambassador to taste-test new K-Cup® packs, share discount codes and giveaways for my lovely readers and to share my experiences with a variety of K-cup® packs. Recently, I was sent a couple of packages with some samples of the new Brew Over Ice K-Cups®. It couldn't come at a better time since New York has been slammed with 90 degree … [Read more...]

"All good things must come to an end." Have you ever heard of such a thing? We all have and unfortunately my K-Cup Ambassadorship has come to an end. It's been by far one of the best things that has come out of blogging. Green Mountain Coffee Roasters is a great company to work with and a company that I will always support because of its obvious -- they have the best-tasting coffee ever! I've said it before and I'll say it again........My Keurig Brewer is the one appliance I cannot live … [Read more...]

September 23, 2011 by 3 Comments
Goodbye Summer, Hello Autumn! Today is the first day of Autumn. It's a pretty warm day in New York with scattered showers over the state but its finally starting to feel like Fall, one of my favorite seasons. The best part about living in the Hudson Valley is that we have lots of Apple Orchards to choose from. My family and I love to go Apple Picking. It's one of the many activities we enjoy doing as a family. We can pick our own apples, taste some freshly squeezed apple cider and … [Read more...]

I’m Teaming with the Tropicana OJ Express at Grand Central Terminal in NYC
August 23, 2011 by 1 Comment
I'm thrilled to be a part of the Tropicana Team as one of their TropiMomma Ambassadors. I've been a Tropicana Pure Premium Orange Juice consumer for as long as I can remember and it's a product I believe in and buy every week for my family. According to a Tropicana survey, one in four Americans start the day off in a bad mood. I hate to say that I am THAT one. It's the "waking up early" part that I dislike. I love mornings but I wish I wasn't exhausted as soon as I get up. It does change … [Read more...]
My Love for Coffee Just Got Bigger, Thanks to K-Cup® Portion Packs
August 15, 2011 by Leave a Comment
My love for coffee has grown since becoming a K-Cup Ambassador. Before trying out the Brew Over Ice K-Cup® portion packs, I was never an iced coffee kind of person. I prefer my coffee to be piping hot. But let's be real here, it's Summer and it's HOT! I don't think I can drink my coffee hot all the time. I want something to cool me off and caffeinate me as well. That's where the iced coffee K-Cup® portion packs comes in. I can't imagine surviving the hot and humid Summer without iced … [Read more...]
