There was a short time that my hubby and I did not have insurance. We were so worried that something horrible would happen to either one of us and we would have to use medical services as an uninsured patient. We all know that health care can cost a lot, and having private insurance can cost even more annually. It wasn't until a colleague of mine mentioned that she had a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and that she would set aside tax-free money ...

What’s the Deal with Faux Engagement Rings?
Once upon a time, there was a girl who waited for her prince charming to come along. When he finally came along and asked for her hand in marriage, she vowed never to take off the symbol of their love.

Horrid Henry DVD Review
My nephew is almost 8 years old and is getting into short stories. He's a good kid, but can have mischievous moments, so when I heard about Horrid Henry, I felt it was a character he could relate to. In the movie Horrid Henry, Henry;s actions start off a chain of events which leads to an interesting cooperation with his archenemies, Moody Margaret. It's hard to come by DVDs with appropriate story lines for younger children (which aren't ...
Rolling out the Red Carpet with @Skinnygirl Cocktails!
I had a much needed girl's night in this past weekend! Well, it wasn't the "ideal" girl's night in because it was a Sunday night and I couldn't send my hubby and daughters away for too long.

This time, we were celebrating the Oscars our own way: We indulged in some yummy flavors of SkinnyGirl Cocktails. Everyone has their favorite- I love the no-brainer ...
Dragon Dictate for Mac
This blog post is different from any other blog post I have ever completed. Why? Well, because instead of typing this post, I am dictating it! My hands are off the keyboard, as I pick up a warm cup of coffee and tell you all about this not-so-new technology that I finally had a chance to try out for myself. The first time I heard about Dragon Naturally Speaking, I was a teenager. My mom purchased a computer with a software bundle and this ...
Puppet Monsters Review (#Giveaway)
When I have the TV on I always dread the commercials. I'm constantly hearing, “Mommy I want thaaaaaat!” or “Mommy.....can you get that for me?”. Once, my 3 year-old actually asked me to buy him a professional picture hanging system. I tried to explain that this commercial wasn't for a toy but he wasn't convinced. So, when my boys saw the commercial for Puppet Monsters I was happy they were interested in something age appropriate and ...
