Trust Me, a new TNT drama
RB and I had a date of sorts this morning. We haven’t gotten to spend much time together lately. I made a pot of fresh coffee and we got comfy on the couch and watched some television. I’m not talking about just any television, I’m talking about new television, a brand new series that you [...]

Review of The Ultimate Receiving Blanket
I have always been a terrible swaddler. I don’t just mean bad, I mean really, really bad. I watched the nurses swaddle TJ when he was born. That’s when I learned babies like swaddling because it simulates the closeness and comfort of the womb. I was amazed at how tight they got theirs to be. [...]
Review of My M&M’s
You’re probably familiar with regular m&m’s. You know, brown bag full of little round pieces of candy with an m on one side. Crunchy candy outside, milk chocolate inside. Well, My M&M’s are the regular m&m’s you’re familiar with but they’re personalized. Personalized and customized by you. When I got an email telling me about [...]
Healthy Kitchenware review and giveaway
I pack lunches for myself and my son CJ every day, and sometimes hubby too. Whatever I make usually gets packaged in plastic bags or containers. I accepted the opportunity to review the Healthy Kitchenware Stainless Lunch Carrier With Sauce Container because I feel it is important we all try to do more to be [...]
Madagascar Escape 2 Africa Wii Video Game review and giveway
We’re big on home entertainment and family fun in our house. It’s a lot cheaper than going out and we enjoy the time together. We enjoy tv, movies and video games. My son TJ absolutely LOVES video games and CJ is now reaching a point where he’s also getting interested in them, so I was [...]
Wreaths Direct review and giveaway
Every year, towards the middle of December we put up a real Christmas tree, the only kind of tree I have ever had. One of the things I do every year on Black Friday is start decorating the house for Christmas. Inside we put up some animated figures and hang cards and other decorations. Outside [...]
The Librarian: Curse Of The Judas Chalice
We all like different kinds of movies in my house. RB, TJ and I all rarely agree on any one genre, never mind one movie. When I was offered an opportunity to preview the new movie The Librarian: Curse Of The Judas Chalice, I accepted it because it had something to do with vampires, something [...]
Review of NeatReceipts Mobile Scanner
My son has developmental delays, which means he has an IEP for school. That means that a LOT of paperwork comes home. I’m also on the Executive Board for our town’s Special Education PTA, which means more paperwork. Plus I get the normal household’s paperwork. I throw as much of it out as I can [...]
One Fifth Avenue review
I love to read. I always have. I haven’t made as much time for reading as I could in the past couple of months and I promised myself I would try and change that. Uninterrupted I can finish most books within two days or less, but I wasn’t able to read uninterrupted this time around. [...]
VistaPrint Holiday Photo Cards review
Regular readers know that I like Vistaprint and recommend them highly. I think their products are some of the best values in stationery products out there. Many people don’t know that along with business cards, post cards, note cards, calendar magnets, business card magnets, window decals, address labels, rubber stamps and pens, VistaPrint also offers [...]
SHOP.com review
If you’re a regular reader then you may recall my writing that I don’t usually go out shopping on Black Friday. There’s a couple of reasons for that but the biggest one is I hate the crowds and chaos. I prefer to shop online whenever possible, not only for the holidays but for almost all [...]
The Secret Mountain review and giveaway
I was an early reader. I have always enjoyed reading and have tried to teach my son that reading can be a lot of fun. I believe that reading by and with a parent is a big part of the formation of a person’s appreciation for reading and there’s no age to young to be [...]
Review Of Vtech Kidijamz Studio
I’m one of those mothers that kept all of her first child’s toys to hand down to the second child. Due to developmental delays, it’s really hard to find age appropriate toys that CJ will be able to enjoy that we don’t already have. I had to pinch myself to be sure I wasn’t imagining [...]
