This post brought to you by Tree Hut. All opinions are 100% mine. I really love my job, and it's been an absolute blast meeting new people and learning new skills. I also like dressing up again. It's been a long time since I've done that. I wasn't terribly motivated working as a writer at [...]

This post brought to you by No nonsense. All opinions are 100% mine. I'll soon be entering the world of working outside the home. Yes! I think I am grown up enough now to take on a job. ;) I've been working from home for a few years and I just can't afford it anymore. [...]

This post brought to you by Mrs. Smith’s . All opinions are 100% mine. I'd always baked my own holiday pies until I started working at home. No time for that anymore! So I bought Mrs. Smith’s pies (apple and cherry!) last year, and wow, the cherry especially was terrific! Not too bad for a [...]

This post brought to you by Comfort Zone® products. All opinions are 100% mine. Meet Livvy. I don't talk about her much on this blog because she has practically overrun my other blog, NewYorkRenovator. But her cuteness often spills into my other blogs.

Nopalea is a drink that comes from the fruit of the Nopal cactus (Opuntia Ficus Indica). The cactus is very rich in a certain type of antioxidants called bioflavinoids which have shown to [...]

I got this in the mail. Isn’t it beautiful! My friend Karen from ChatBugKaren made it! I have been admiring her quilt work for eons. I needed a new bag to carry my stuff to church and back. Now that I am in my mid 40′s, I figured it was time to retire my nylon [...]

This post brought to you by Kmart. All opinions are 100% mine. So…. you ready for Christmas yet? HAHA!! The stores seem eager, as usual! I heard Clark Howard say that the layaway is coming back. Do you guys remember the layaway? I remember it from the 70s, back before credit cards made it all [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Astrobrights Papers by Neenah Paper for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. I'm starting to see the school supplies line the store aisles again. I can't believe it's almost August! The summer has gone by so fast and I hardly had a chance to [...]

The iPhone is a really amazing little device. I use it everywhere! Unfortunately, so does everyone else. And we all happen to use the same few ringtones… so when we hear the phone ring with its familiar “Marimba,” “Timba,” “Strum,” or “Chime,” we all reach for our phones. Ugh.
