I do believe I’ve found a new trusty companion when it comes to washing my dishes through the dishwasher. For the first time ever; my dishes didn’t have the usual water spots and residue stains at the bottom of my cups and bowls. It was so nice to see that. What’s even nicer yet; the… Keep Reading…

Remembering Thanksgiving Day
| November 27, 2010 | Posted by barb under Family, Randomness |
Thanksgiving day was amazing. I watched my kids play, spent some much needed time with my family, ate until my belly grew and played the Wii till it hurt. It was so much fun and I can’t wait to do that again. But next time, I hope my son can be with us. Sadly, he… Keep Reading…
Still Breathing Still Stuffed and Still Tired
| November 26, 2010 | Posted by barb under Family, Randomness |
I bet most of us are feeling that way today; tired, stuffed and a whole lot bummed at the possible 10lb weight gain we were gifted with by the turkey fairy…argh! Add to it (for me), a bad nightmare that woke me up way too early this morning and a three hour ride home with… Keep Reading…

Betty Crocker Instant Mashed Potatoes Review and Giveaway
| November 23, 2010 | Posted by barb under Family, food, Giveaways, Reviews |
You know what? Receiving this gift pack in the mail was a real blessing. I love mashed potatoes, but hate having to take time and ‘partially’ peel most all of the potatoes in order to eat it. I say partially because If I had it my way, there wouldn’t be any peeling. It’s the hub… Keep Reading…

This was too cute. Even the box was covered in cow print. When I opened the box and looked inside, there were more cow printed products. It was sweet. I think the girls got a kick out of the presentation of the box and lotions we received (as well as the name- how perfect?).… Keep Reading…

The Perfect Gift for those Who Love To Read
| November 22, 2010 | Posted by barb under Books, Reviews |
I’ll be honest with you; I haven’t had the time to read a book in its entirety. Not like I used to. I consider myself lucky if I can, in fact, read a half a dozen pages before bed anymore. But…that doesn’t take away from the fact that I love books. I love to read.… Keep Reading…

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is celebrating their 30th anniversary with the release of their digitally re-mastered feature film. I have never seen this movie before.

Another Dose of SpongeBob SquarePants
| November 20, 2010 | Posted by barb under DVDs/CDs, Family, kids stuff, Reviews |
These guys crack me up. I mean, they’re definitely not ‘educational’, but they sure are comical. My favorite character is Sandy. Piper absolutely loves SpongeBob while Patience and CJ adore Patrick. Hub, well, he’s the only one that’s not too fond of the show. He says ‘the sponge’ is too squeaky for him. Mr. Tom… Keep Reading…

Have I told you before, that we’re fans of movies where dogs are the stars? Well, we do- very, very much…and this movie was beautiful.
