Over the weekend, my hubby and I had an evening to ourselves. The kids went into another room to see some shows on tv while the "lovebirds" (aka hubby & I) sat on the sofa like a couple of teenagers in love. Every time I see a romantic comedy, I get all excited. It's my favorite type of movie. I get my pillow and blanket ready to get comfy on the sofa. It's "my" tradition when it's movie time at our house. I was really looking forward to seeing When in Rome because it came from the … [Read more...]
VTech MobiGo Touch Learning System | Review and Giveaway
June 8, 2010 by 141 Comments
Recently, my five year daughter and I had the opportunity to try out a brand new and fun product from V-Tech. It's called the MobiGo Touch Learning System. We received it over the weekend and already she's a pro at it. She loves it and takes it everywhere she goes. I'm happy to say she doesn't ask for my iPod Touch as much as before (Thank you V-Tech!). I love that it's portable and she can play with it anywhere. It's especially great for those long, boring doctor appointments or long … [Read more...]
MyBlogSpark and General Mills Sweet and Salty Review & Giveaway
May 30, 2010 by 92 Comments
My family and I love our snacks. After dinner, we like to have a sweet or salty snack to calm the savage beast within us (LOL). We can't help it. It's that time to relax, watch some TV and enjoy each other's company. But there are times when we have nothing to snack on so I'll drive to our local convenience store to get some much needed grub. When I'm at the store, I tend to browse all the aisles looking for that perfect snack, especially when I'm alone. Either I'm looking for something … [Read more...]
Simply… Go-Gurt Yogurt – Review & Giveaway
April 22, 2010 by
***GIVEAWAY ENDED*** Winner is CONGRATULATIONS DENISE!!!!!! Growing up, yogurt was not a staple in my house. Since my mom did not eat it, she didn't buy it. So since she didn't like it, she thought I wouldn't either. She was right - to an extent. The first time I tried it, I hated it. It was something I never wanted to eat again until I tried it in a smoothie. The smoothie was delicious with bananas, pineapple, strawberries, milk & of course, the star - strawberry flavored … [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...]

Suave Kids Wash Them Grow Sweepstakes | Review & Giveaway!
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...]
Euro-Pro Shark Deluxe Steam Pocket Mop (Review)
February 11, 2010 by 2 Comments
A few months ago, I was contacted by Shark to try out the new Euro-Pro Shark Deluxe Steam Pocket Mop in my home. It's an eco-friendly product that turns ordinary tap water into a powerful steam cleaner and sanitizer removing 99.99% of harmful bacteria and providing a healthier and more effective alternative to chemical cleaning. I was intrigued by the product because since I have three kids and two pets at home, I don't like using harmful chemicals to clean the floors. I've wanted a … [Read more...]
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...]
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...]
