Hilarious Gifts For The Man In Your Life This Holiday Season

image002

When it comes to shopping for holiday gifts for my husband, he’s into “anything electronic.” Computers, televisions, gadgets and gizmos – he’s got a million reasons why each and every one will enrich our lives (it’s TECHNOLOGY, Junie!). However, sometimes he needs to get into something a bit less hi-tech…and trying to get him to [...]

A Makeup Primer With A Jolt of Caffeine

Makeup primers are the latest craze in cosmetics. They are used to set makeup, fill lines and shrink pores, while absorbing oils to provide a smooth foundation and flawless finish – or so say their fancy packages.Unfortunately, even top end primers (I used to be a big fan of Dior’s until the sad realization hit [...]

Bodycology Beauty

I’m someone with super sensitive skin. Give me a lotion with the wrong kind of fragrance, and I’ll look like I have the chicken pox for 2 hours or longer after hastily scrubbing it off (hives are NEVER in season). Same goes for soaps, laundry detergents, pretty much anything I put on my skin or [...]

Sprinkles Cake Shooters – DE-licious

From the land of talking mice and a wonderland of theme parks comes the latest indulgence that’s ideal for children of any age: Sprinkles Cake Shooters. These portable, practical push-pops full of the perfect ratio of moist, delicious cake and creamy, decadent frosting are perfect for children’s events – their plastic tube encasement with push [...]

Kodak Playsport Waterproof Video Camera

Kodak has released their latest pocket video cam, the Kodak Playsport Waterproof Video Camera, which retails for about $150. I would love the opportunity to take this baby for a test run – given its apparently good ratings for being sturdy and waterproof and my water-filled lifestyle. It certainly would have been helpful to have [...]

Friendship Stone – Meaningful Gifts, Great Price!

I came across this gift idea on SheBlogs.org, and had to pass it along. As a bride-to-be, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about what sorts of personal, meaningful gifts I can give my bridesmaids when I walk down the aisle next summer, and I thought this was a perfect gift suggestion, since we [...]

Happeez from Mayfair Lane are a line of innovative products that stick where magnets do, and where they don’t, including stainless steel refrigerators, glass, mirrors, and more. The line includes clips, frames, whiteboards, notepads, and listpads. Unlike a magnet, Happeez products protect surfaces from scratching and marring and will not leave a residue. Just in [...]

Going Green With Zuvo Water

I’m not going to pretend I’m the most eco-conscious gal out there, but I do make my efforts. However, one of the eco-sins I’m most often guilty of is drinking bottle after bottle of spring water. I do recycle, but there are still energy and other costs to consider. Brita and other filters never appealed [...]

Smoking Everywhere – And Nowhere

I’m a smoker. I have been for years. Every time I have tried to quit, something has happened that’s gotten me started back up (Since my last attempt, I’ve said I would never quit again, so there would be no more major catastrophes in my life). However, today while walking through the local mall, I [...]

No More Aching Feet, Please

I – like most women – love my strappy stilettos. What I don’t love, however, is the pain and blisters that come after a night of wearing them out. Sure, that little leather heel looks adorable with that absolutely perfect mini dress you bought for that night of VIP cocktails on South Beach – but [...]
