Flexible Hair Barrettes: For Every Hair Type & Style #win

A decade ago (oh-my-goodness, that long?) I used to always wear hair sticks. You know, they have an “oriental” flair to them and look like fancy chopsticks? You could wear your hair in a twist or bun and hold it in place with the hair sticks. I loved them and it was well known in [...]

Easter Giveaway:Baby Bunch Egg Nests

So the baby shower I’ve been planning FOREVER is now over. It took place just yesterday and I had been planning on incorporating more “eastery” ideas, but it was a little hard since I am pretty far away (4 hour drive) from the party.
So how do you add elements of Easter or Springtime into a [...]

Just Jen Bridal Hoodies on The Bachelor

Honestly, I don’t watch too much tv… but I just heard the buzz that my favorite rhinestone customized shirt company was featured on on ABC’s The Bachelor: Jason and Molly’s Wedding! On March 8th, Molly (the bride), her maid of honor and her four bridesmaids were all wearing complementing JustJen Bridal Hoodies and coordinating sweatpants. [...]

Veggie Tales: Pistachio

You know what DVD is on rotation at the Tales house right now … Pistachio from Veggie Tales! This is the fourth Veggie Tales DVD we’ve watched and I am as thrilled as always with the lessons learned, clever script and the fact that there is absolutely no fault in letting your child watch it. [...]

The Mom Buzz as Princess Leia: #win from Costume Supercenter

I have to admit I had a lot of fun with this review. As Savvy Suzie said, “My inner nerd just went *squee*!” (I love that line, Suzie!) The thing is, as moms we are all queens of our households. But how often do we get to be a princess? Albeit, Princess Leia is not [...]

Hair Accessories and Hats at HairCoverings.com #Win

I love simple, quick ways that let me get out of the door without spending 20 minutes or more on my hair. Ideally, I like to spend 5 minutes or less. So that means hats, headbands and other quick-solution hair accessories are must-haves in my book. That’s where a store like HairCoverings.com comes in. They [...]

Star Wars Costumes for Anytime Play! (WIN!)

A few close friends know I am currently Star Wars obsessed. It was bound to happen raising two boys. They love anything “hero-like”. So it makes sense after being enamored with characters like Spiderman, Hulk and Ironman, they would move on to Galactic Heroes like Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Won and Clone Troopers.
Already, we do “dress-up” with [...]

Mimosa for Youthful Skin: Origins Starting Over #Win

Lately I’ve been noticing some fine lines around my eyes. Eek! I guess being 30 is finally letting itself be known. But, it’s not too late for me to “start over” . Well, at least it is not too late for my skin! That’s because Origins gives skin a new beginning with the new Starting [...]

Frigidaire Range & Microwave Test Drive: #Frigidaire & Energy Star

I have had my Stainless Steel Range and Microwave from Frigidaire for over a month now. I have to say, I am so sold on it. It is SO easy to keep clean! I used to HATE my kitchen. But the new range and microwave really updated it, although I still crave some new cabinets [...]

Honest Kids Juice Pouches #Win

I don’t give my kids too much juice, they are mostly water and milk drinkers. But every now and then, for playdates and trips… or if there is an awesome sale, I’ll pick up some juice boxes. Boy, the kids are crazy about them! But not every kid just has juice just as a treat [...]
