It's a new year and I am on a journey to get healthy. This time I am going it alone instead of trying diets. I figure if I exercise and eat better, I should lose weight.

2012-01-13T10:41:00.000-05:00

As a Purex Insider, I get to review Purex products. One of my favorite Purex products recently has been Purex Crystals. I love them. You take the crystals and put them into your washer.

My Memories Digital Scrapbook Software Review and Giveaway!

2012-01-08T07:08:00.005-05:00

I used to scrapbook a long time ago. It has been years since I have done it. One of the reasons I gave up was that it was time-consuming. It was also very expensive. I often miss it because it is one thing to have pictures on my blog but it is a whole other thing creating unique pages and making a physical scrapbook to hold those memories. But now I can actually make scrapbook pictures on my

When we travel, we always have to drive to Atlanta and spend the night. There is a Ruby Tuesday close to the hotel we stay at so we always have dinner there. This trip when we went to Jamaica, they gave us a $15 coupon for our next meal. Problem is that it is only valid from January 2 to February 28, 2012.

The Top 10 favorite products I reviewed in 2011

2011-12-31T10:10:00.001-05:00

I decided to highlight my favorite reviews of 2011. In no particular order here they are. Symptom Pak - I was a little reluctant to review medicine but this was generic enough so I did. I love this little pack of meds. It has generic medicine for various illnesses like colds, flu, etc. It has saved me a few times this year. I would definitely buy this. It is so handy to have in the medicine

2011-12-04T06:20:00.004-05:00

The holidays are the best time especially for making sweets! Every year about this time we have a cookie exchange at work. I also make cookies for my husband's work as well. It is one of my favorite things! I love baking but I am not that great at it because I cannot follow a recipe to save my life. Baking requires precise measurements and cooking times etc. So I always need easy recipes. But

Drano Snake Plus Review and Giveaway!

2011-11-23T06:58:00.003-05:00

The problem we have at my house is my hair. It is long, thick and wavy. When I shower, it tends to fall out and get stuck in the drain. My hair along with the shampoo and soap always clog up the shower. I am not kidding when I saw that we should buy stock in Drano because we use it all the time. When I received the opportunity to review the new Drano® Snake Plus kit, I was so excited because I
