I can't live without my warm beverages in the winter. Whether it is a warm cup of chai tea or some rich hot cocoa, I always find a moment of "me time" in the perfect cup. Last year I came across Dark Chocolate Hot Cocoa from Grove Square and there was no turning back. I love chocolate but it has to be the RIGHT chocolate, and it always has to be dark, so when I found a dark hot cocoa, I knew it was made just for chocolate snobs like me! The dark ...

Shark Rocket Vacuum Review #Holiday 2013
During our moving process I purged A LOT of things, including an old bulky vacuum and a DustBuster. My husband fought tooth and nail to keep our dirty old DustBuster but I wasn't having it. It smelled. It was hard to clean. The battery lasted for 53 seconds. It was time for it to go. The vacuum we got rid of was a bagged vacuum that smelled like something was burning each time we turned it on. I needed to find something that better suited our ...
Don’t Get Stuck Without Power This Holiday Season!
If you are traveling this holiday season then you have to check out the newest picks from Duracell. Duracell has been a trusted name in battery power for decades, so it's only natural they have evolved to keep you from losing power on your favorite mobile devices. When you are on the go, the last thing you want is to lose power. Personally, when I am traveling with my daughters, my biggest fear is that I won't be able to reach someone in the ...
Trying Something New with Pompeian Grapeseed Oil
Growing up in a European family, the only oil we really used was olive oil. My mom would always warn me that olive oil burns quickly and isn't ideal for frying, but I loved the taste of olive oil so much that I would still take the chance and cook with it anyway. I won't lie- I constantly set off the alarm while cooking with it, and sometimes the flavor of olive oil was just too heavy. I started experimenting with other cooking oils but was ...
Shopping for the hubby at a newly updated #RadioShack store! (sponsored) #MC
Living in NYC during the holidays is unlike anything else. The smells from the pretzels carts tied in with the chilly weather and amazing seasonal decor is sure to put anyone in the holiday spirit. Last weekend I headed over to Lord & Taylor to show my daughter the beautiful holiday window display. Just a few blocks away we found ourselves in front of RadioShack on 42nd Street and decided to do some holiday shopping for the hubby with the ...

Family Movie Night With the HP Envy Rove 20 #HPFamilyTime
Once upon a time, my hubby and I use to watch streamed movies on my 13.3 inch laptop computer. No, seriously. We would watch movies TOGETHER on a tiny screen. Why? Because we couldn't stream to our TV. There was never a comfortable position and the picture was not the best quality. My laptop didn't like it much either- it would easily overheat, make a lot of noise, and protest the entire time that we shouldn't be watching movies on it. And then ...
Saying Thanks With Hickory Farms #HickoryTradition. Enter to Win a Gift Basket! (#Giveaway)
This the season for hostess gifts! As a hostess of our annual family Thanksgiving dinner, I can tell you that I don't expect anyone to bring anything along with them, but I guess a small gift is inevitable. I never show up to someone's house empty handed and I'm sure those who come to my home may feel the same way. I've never been disappointed with a hostess gift simply because I don't expect anything and I am grateful for having everyone ...
