Enjoy Cleaner Air with the New Honeywell True HEPA Tower Allergen Remover

Honeywell Air Purifier

When I first read about the Honeywell True HEPA tower, I was a bit skeptical.  How could something so small actually clean the air?  I had heard of the Honeywell name though and knew it was a reputable company, so I decided to give it a try.  I'm so glad I did. As soon as it arrived, I tore into the box.  The instructions are easy to follow and it includes everything you need.  The are two HEPA filters that you remove the plastic from and reinstall.  These filters just snap in so it's … [Read more...]

Gigglin Garden

One of the things I'm most looking forward to this spring and summer is planting a garden.  We have BIG plans- maybe a little too big, but our motto is "Go big or go home!" so we are going big.  I can already feel the warmth of the sun on my face and the ache in my back.  I can also imagine two little faces covered in dirt and two helpers right under foot.  The kids and I got a very small taste of the gardening life yesterday with the Gigglin' Garden Gang kit.  It was a little windy out, … [Read more...]

Shaklee Cinch Plan – Could it be for you?

March 5, 2012 By 3 Comments
Cinch Starter Kit

During the month of February, I had the opportunity to try out several products from the Shaklee Cinch line.  I've never been one to really diet and I had never tried a meal replacement plan.  I'm hoping that 2012 will be the year that I lose the baby weight (which a year later shouldn't really be referred to as baby weight) so I gave the Cinch plan a shot.  In all honesty, I certainly did not give it my best shot, but I did give it a shot. *ahem* The Shaklee Cinch Starter Kit … [Read more...]

Electronic Cigarettes – The Smoking Alternative

I grew up watching both of my parents smoke.  I whined, complained, and hid ash trays.  I hated it. At 14, I smoked my first cigarette.   By 15, I was a smoker. I quit smoking over a year ago and I still want a cigarette quite often.  I tell myself no each and every time.  It's not easy.  It's not fun. Quitting is possible though. My dad has smoked for 35 years.  Like most smokers, he's tried to quit several times.   He's chewed the gum.  He's worn the patches.  He's … [Read more...]

Macy’s Heart of Haiti – Giveaway

Heart of Haiti Pendant

It's hard to believe that it has been two years since I sat stunned it front of the TV trying to wrap my mind around the utter devastation in Haiti.  Over 300,000 lives were lost.  There were stories of sorrow, of pain and loss, but there were also stories of hope.  It was like an emotional roller-coaster ride for me and as I tucked Bryson into bed each night, I gave thanks for things I had previously taken for granted- a home, warm beds, food, all of those things that seem to be a part of … [Read more...]

Graphic Tees for Kids – Hank Player U.S.A.

Hank Player

I think I may be a little odd when it comes to my kid's clothing.  I prefer to dress them in comfortable, affordable, and stylish clothing.  I don't see the point in spending hundreds of dollars on clothing that they will wipe their noses on, spill their drinks on, and cover in food, mud, or whatever the medium of choice for that particular day happens to be.  Add in the fact that they are constantly growing and changing sizes and really- why would you buy expensive clothing?  My kids have a … [Read more...]
