Shutterfly | Review & Giveaway

There are many photo printing sites out there to choose from, and I have tried many of them. The one that I end up coming back to time and time again is Shutterfly. In the past, we’ve used Shutterfly to print our Holiday Cards and Photo Christmas Cards. I have always been pleased with both [...]

World’s Best Cat Litter | Review

wbcl

I could do this review in 6 words and make it short and sweet, if you’d like: I’ve already bought two more bags. But, I’m pretty sure that both my readers and the sponsor would like to know just a little bit more about what I think of World’s Best Cat Litter, so just know [...]

DSC_0001

Just like with handbags, a mom needs to have an army of diaper bags that serve different needs. I have two designer ones (one which has more “cargo” space than the other), a rugged one, and KinArt provided me with the bag that holds everything but the kitchen sink. Based in San Francisco, KinArt is [...]

How to Write the Perfect Thank You

In this day and age of technology and social media, it seems that handwritten letters and cards are going the way of the home telephone.

Let’s face it, summer is HOT. No matter where you live. Here in Colorado we’re fortunate to have a dry heat, but temperatures stay in the 90′s just about all summer long. Back home in Minnesota, the temperature doesn’t have to reach the 90′s to be hot – mix in some high humidity and it’s [...]

Keep the Mosquitoes Away Naturally with Buzz Away

I grew up in Minnesota, where the mosquito is the state bird. You can’t step outside in the summer without getting at least 50 or so bites. I’m not exaggerating, I promise. Since I left Minnesota, life has been good without that annoying little critter. I never saw one in California, and until this summer, [...]

When I was newly pregnant, my super awesome brother bought me the queen of all diaper bags: a Coach diaper bag. I love it. It’s all I could ever ask for. But sometimes you want something just a little different – I mean, when you’re carrying a regular handbag, chances are that you have a [...]
