People have this common misconception that since my hair is kind of straight, that it doesn't get frizzy. See, my hair is not sure if it wants to be wavy or straight, so I always have frizz and fly-aways. I usually have to use some kind of smoothing serum in my hair, but because of the texture I have to be careful what products I use, otherwise my hair will look very greasy. (I always use less than the recommended dime size for my mid-back length ...

Anti-Aging Skin Regenerator Review
I'm a believer that you should not wait until you have wrinkles to check out treatments. Once the damage to the skin is done, it is very difficult to reverse it. I think that when you hit your early thirties, you should consider anti-aging skin treatments to keep wrinkles at bay.I had the opportunity to review the Anti-Aging Skin Regenerator with Organic Fulvic Ioinic Minerals (wow, that was a mouthful!) I have to admit - my first impressions ...
Nutrisystem Week 8 #NSNation (hubby’s review)
This week I realized for the first time how Nutrisystem has changed the way I eat and to a certain extent think. The first time I realized this was at a BBQ I went to this weekend. Before I started my diet, I would have not only eaten a big meal at the BBQ, I would have also had a big dinner later on in the night. I now realize that their needs to be a balance, so I was able to enjoy my food at the party, but then eat a small ...
Summer on the East Coast: Virginia Beach!
My hubby and I decided that this year we were going to take a few trips on the east coast. We both agree that travelling on a plane with a toddler may not be the most relaxing vacation - even though being a few hundred miles away from home in a hot car probably isn't the answer either.We research Virginia Beach and came up with ten reason why we would love to visit - maybe they are reasons why you would want to visit Virginia Beach too!1. It's ...
Nutrisystem Week 8 #NSNation
Warning: What you are about to read may disturb you if you are trying to lose weight. The following are factual accounts of my past week on (kinda) Nutrisystem.This entire week I was very strict about what I ate and stuck with Nutrisystem only foods. I was very disappointed in my results last week so I knew that only I could fix the situation and make it better. I did very well, up until Sunday - when I asked hubby to pick me up some Starbucks. ...
Baby Bedding Zone Review and Giveaway!
From the moment I found out I was pregnant, images of what my baby's nursery would come to mind. Being that we live in a 2-bedroom with no prospect of moving anytime soon, I knew that the nursery needed to be neutral colors. FYI - neutral does NOT mean drab! We went with blue, green, and yellow colors throughout the room with "The Cow Jumped over the Moon" theme. It was fun and playful - without any real gender specific colors sticking out. After ...
Gourmet Gift Baskets Review and Giveaway
When I give gifts, I like to give something personalized that I know the receiver will love. I try not to be a "generic" gift giver, but sometimes it is difficult to pick out a gift for someone. I usually like purchasing a lot of little things and wrapping them up in a basket to create a gift that has many surprises. This is very time consuming and doesn't always work out as I plan, but it is worth it when the gift comes together. I love looking ...
