Brighten Your Day with Teleflora Flowers
I know it’s only the end of February, but it’s unseasonably warmer than usual and I’m already stating to get “spring fever”. I was asked to take a look at Teleflora and write something. I agreed because there’s nothing like fresh beautiful flowers to really help to bring in spring! I decided that I will be buying flowers for myself. Time to get out the spring decor, get the vases ready, and fill the house with the scent of flowers! I noticed that if I order the flowers from Teleflora before 3:00pm, you...
read moreAn Amazing Room- #Wordless Wednesday Linky
A Study room at the NYC Public Library. I think the picture says everything. I love to look at old buildings, it amazes me of the detail that went into these with non of the technology that we have today. The craftsmanship blows away today’s designs. If I had to study in this room, I wouldn’t get anything done because I’d be too busy looking at every detail of the structure. “For more inspiring photos, check these wonderful blogs: The Bonafide Life, Better in Bulk, Shanamama, From Dates to Diapers, Not Your Momblog, The...
read moreDon’t Let Depression Take Your Child
The other day I sat studying with 6 of my girlfriends at the library. Our hard work was often interrupted with casual talking. It was during one of our discussions that I had an epiphany of sorts. Everyone sitting at that table, despite coming from different states and walks of life, was taking some form of depression medication. Stress and depression is something every parent needs to know about. Here we sit, 7 college students, still struggling to handle the stress of life. Now that we are over the age of 18, we can seek out therapy of...
read more3 Doors Down Kryptonite- #TuesdayTunes
Music is huge in my family. From actually playing different instruments to listening to every genre there is, we are a music family. It went back past my grandmother but some of my best memories were of her playing the organ or piano as we all sang and danced. She also played guitar like nobody’s business. It was passed down to me and my kids. When music is playing, we don’t hear it, we feel it. There are so many songs that I love, I decided to join Amanda, High Impact Mom, in Tuesday Tunes. Each week I’ll be sharing a...
read more#Bertolli Weeknight Meal Special Challenge
We are all so busy at times and cooking dinner can become a challenge, not too mention expensive. I’m not a huge soup person, not because I don’t like it, but because it takes so long to make. Most soups you buy can not be considered a meal so when I was asked to try #Bertolli Meal Soup, I was very skeptical. I tried it, it to my surprise it was delicious. The flavor was spot on and it cost $6.99 which fed two of us. Add a loaf of bread and you have a super meal for a chilly night! Check out my video below. Check out #bertolli on...
read morePeeing Myself is Not Gracefully Growing Old
I was very active throughout my life. There wasn’t an activity or sport I wouldn’t try. I noticed when I turned 40 if I sneezed, coughed, or jumped I would sometimes pee myself. This was so embarrassing, I thought something was wrong with me, I didn’t even want to ask the doctor for fear he would tell me to go buy Depends. I was very proactive with my girls explaining to them why they should do their Kegels. I realized I stopped doing them myself for about a year and needed to get back to my routine so I can stop peeing...

read moreThe Modern Gentleman’s Couscous
I found this recipe in a cookbook called The Modern Gentleman by Sean Kanan. I love trying new recipes. While I really like couscous, I had never tried it with dried fruit and I thought it sounded interesting. We used gluten free couscous so my whole family could enjoy it. 2 cups couscous 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 1 cup water 1 cup low sodium chicken broth 1 clove garlic, minced 1/2 cup loosely packed mint leaves, chopped 1/2 cup loosely packed parsley leaves pinch of nutmeg 1/4 cup dried fruit (raisins, cherries, figs, etc.) 1 tsp cumin...
read moreCilea- Eyelash Growth Stimulator- Review
Luscious Lashes!!! Who doesn’t want to have full thick lashes? I know I do! As I got older, my lashes seemed to get very thin. Yay old age! I needed to apply three coats of mascara or I used fake lashes. Another problemI had is my eyebrows got very thin and eyebrow pencil was added to my makeup routine every day. I saw lots of ads for all different eyelash growth stimulators and wanted to try them… but….. I’m very skeptical about putting chemicals on or near my eyes. My husband had to sit on me in order to put eye drops...
