I’m not a picture printer by nature. I take pictures. I hoard pictures on flash drives, hard drives and CDs. I look at pictures on my phone, computer monitor and even our TV. But print them? Hardly ever. My mother on the other hand — picture printing…obsessed. She prints every picture she takes…in duplicate (sometimes triplicate!).

This post comes with an incredibly fun self-promotion of…ME.  Hey, I let you know ahead of time!

So since I got my iPhone, I’ve been a little obsessed with cases.  It’s fun to buy them in different colors and types, but even more so when you can personalize them any way you like.  One online shop I have a great time exploring for accessories for my iPhone is Zazzle.  They really have some unique and cute designs from the people that sell using the Zazzle storefront, or you can design your own.

Clearly I am a woman who likes to live on the edge.

I push the limits, eeking out the very last of everything, to get the most value – but I might have been presumptuous recently, when it came to how much ink I had left in my printer.

When we got engaged, my aunt filled a photo album full of recipe cards of tried and trued dishes, and gave it to me at one of my showers. It was one of the best gifts I got. A lot of those recipes are my staple go to ones still twenty years later.

The one thing that’s great about the holidays, is that you end up making seasonal food that wouldn’t be on your radar otherwise. When it comes to St. Patrick’s Day one immediately conjures up food recipes that are green and/or have booze.

Thanks to the McCormick Kitchen experts, I tried my hand at a St. Patrick’s Day goody, which incorporates both the green and the booze (well in my case at least the flavor of the booze LOL!). It’s a festive creation to pull out for dessert on March 17th.

Did you know that Krill Oil is wildly good for you? Some of its benefits are that it can protect your heart, lower your cholesterol, fight PMS symptoms, combat inflammation, optimize your brain’s capabilities, fight aging AND boost your overall health and well being!

My husband has been taking Fish Oil pills for years to get that extra source of Omega 3 fatty acids. We’ve often seen Krill Oil pills on the shelves when purchasing the Fish Oil pills we buy for him, but have never taken the plunge to switch.

Crest and Oral-B Pro-Health FOR ME want to help make you the coolest parents of the year, by providing the opportunity to win a trip for two to Los Angeles to visit the set of the hit Nickelodeon show, Big Time Rush (BTR)!

Last year when Wreck-It Ralph was first announced, our daughter was rightly excited about it. As an avid gamer, a Disney film about video games, even arcade games, was enough to have her impatiently tapping her feet. When it was finally released in theaters and she got to watch it…it knocked Tangled from the top of her favorite animated Disney film list. I really cannot overstress how much she loves this movie, it’s heart warming and hilarious in all the right spots. I can attest to how much she was bouncing off the walls when we received the Wreck-It Ralph 4-Disc Blu-ray Combo pack. She was so impatient she had to go watch it once by herself

Totsy has a fun sale happening right now for Stephen Joseph.

It’s only running until Friday 3/8/13 so get the deals while you can! Stephen Joseph has fun products such as rain gear, jackets, backpacks, school supplies and accessories and some items are up to 64% off! These are great for the upcoming spring weather or to put in Easter Baskets! But you have to hurry – because Totsy is a ‘flash sale’ site and when they sell out – you’re out of luck.

I have not had much time for pleasure book reading in a while. Between resource books and the books Amber is reading for her high school courses, sitting down with a book just to enjoy a story and its characters was shelved for some time. When I was approached to do a review and giveaway of A Plain Scandal by Amanda Flower, I knew it would be a good way to get some down time in for me, and lighten up my reading load a bit too.
