Swanky Baby Vintage & Swanky Lady Clothing Review
I received products from Swanky Baby Vintage and Swanky Lady for my review. All opinions are my own.
My daughters and I have a passion for boutique clothing. We love having unique apparel. When we found Swanky Baby Vintage and Swanky Lady, we fell in love with their clothing; it has a playful feel, is made with attractive textiles and has beautiful designs. I would describe it as having modern vintage look with a touch of southern charm…I hope that makes sense.

ShaveMate Titan & Diva Shaving System Review
I received products from ShaveMate for my review. All opinions are my own.
Have you heard about ShaveMate? ShaveMate is an all in one shaving system; it’s a razor and shaving cream in one convenient product. ShaveMate razors have a special compartment that holds and dispenses shaving cream. Isn’t that a neat idea? Now when you are traveling or going to the gym, you only have to remember your ShaveMate.

Minwax Wood Finishing Cloths & Express Clear Finish Review
I received products from Minwax for my review. All opinions are my own.
I love DIY projects; however, my skills and patience are limited. I am great at coming up with ideas and starting projects. Then my creativity, abilities, and drive dwindle and the project rarely gets completed. It’s frustrating because I have so many projects I want/ need to get done.
Last month, I was asked to review Minwax Wood Finishing Cloths stain and Minwax Express Clear Finish, I jumped at the opportunity. Read more [...]
Zing Anything Salad Zinger Review

I received product from Zing Anything for my review. All opinions are my own.
Quite often, we have a salad with our dinner. It seemed odd to me that we would go to the trouble of preparing a dish with delicious fresh vegetable and then top them with store bought heavy dressings containing who knows what for ingredients. I decided to put a stop to the craziness by mixing our own dressings. Remember, I am not a great cook by any means. The only dressing I could come up with was combining extra virgin Read more [...]
Jennie-O Turkey Recipe & Review
I received Jennie-O product coupons in exchange for my review. All opinions are my own.
Every day, I dread preparing our family dinner. We are a family of four and each has different “likes and wants” in our meals. I want healthy, quick and easy meals for my family.

I will receive product from Luna Star Naturals™ for my review. All opinions are my own.
We have just over a week until Christmas. Recently I heard someone ask my daughters what they wanted for Christmas. They always have different answers so I never know what I’m going to hear them say. This time, they surprised me by saying that they would both like make-up…that was news to me.
My daughters are 4.5 and almost 7 years old. We have played make-up once or twice, but not a lot. The main Read more [...]

I have been working really hard to live a healthy lifestyle. I try to eat nutritious foods, drink water, get the appropriate amount of rest, and get my daily exercise.
