Did I really just make a "go bag?" You know - a bag that you pack with all your important belongings in the event of a situation where you HAVE to leave in a hurry. I've been poo-pooing Hurricane Irene ever since my hubby told me last week that I might have to cancel my little girl's 2nd birthday because of this hurricane. I've seen so many hurricanes and I just didn't understand the impact this hurricane would have on the city I live in. So, ...

Are Vanity Numbers worth investing in?
Right before I got married I did something many people think about doing but don't actually do - I opened a business. At the time I thought I had what it took to be my own boss and do something I truly enjoyed doing. Starting a business is a lot of responsibility and requires a lot of time and thought in order for it to be successful. One thing you may notice about successful businesses is that they have Vanity Numbers. I looked into this ...

Disney Bubbles Review and Giveaway!
There is something about bubbles that instantly makes people happy. I have sat on my stoop (yes, in NYC we call our concrete, lack of a patio, a stoop) with my daughter and her bubble maker and watched people actually chase bubbles to pop them. It is quite comical, but at the same time I'm not surprised! I do the same thing! Bubbles can entertain kids for hours and for that reason, I have bubbles in just about every variety! When I was asked ...
Hot Wheels RC Nitro Speeders Review and Giveaway!
My nephew has a car obsession. Ever since he saw the movie Cars, he started collecting any cars he can get his hands on. Wherever he goes, he brings along his backpack (which is car themed) along with his favorite cars inside. This isn't always convenient, but reasoning with a almost 5 year old is near impossible. I recently had the opportunity to work with Hot Wheels on their release of Nitro Speeders and I think these are the perfect ...
Lite Sprites Review and Giveaway
My almost-7 year old niece has gotten into fairies this year and I have been searching for the perfect "fairy" themed gift for her birthday. When I was asked to review the new Lite Sprites in the Lite-Topia collection, I knew my niece would love the opportunity.

Savvy Rest Organic Contour Pillow Review
Finding a comfortable pillow has been one of the most difficult products to purchase for me. When I first purchased our pillows, they were a name brand and on sale, so I stocked up. Shortly after that I realized I should have only purchased 2. Just recently, I started looking into pillows again and I bought a contour pillow, thinking it would be comfortable. I'm not sure if it was comfortable or not, because after I brought it home, I noticed the ...
