Ask any football loving fan what their dream date would be and nine times out of 10 he’ll say tickets to the Super Bowl. As my father-in-law always says, “you can’t put a price on a good time,” so if you’re considering biting the bullet and treating your significant other to the ultimate “Man Date,” follow this game plan and you’ll come up a winner:

Hefty Basics paper plates are stronger than everyday plates at a value price, and provide a great choice for people interested in an environmental option.  The plates are biodegradable in-home composting and free of inks, dyes or coatings.

So do they really stand up to the rigors of messy food?  Well we tried them out the other night.  I made tortellini for dinner and of course with noodles comes sauce.

Have you decided to try and reduce your environmental footprint in 2011?

Saving money and reducing your environmental footprint are worthy goals you can spend many years striving to achieve.   There’s a refillable, reusable, remarkable way to clean your home, reducing your spending and being eco-friendly with JAWS (Just Add Water System) cleaning products.

Buying clothing for yourself, your best friend or your daughters is usually an easy task, you just know what they like, pick it up and are done.  But then there are the men in your life…

I don’t know about you, but for me personally, I find it difficult to shop for the guys.  The ones in my life (Husband, Brothers, Dad), all have different tastes and personalities, and even though I think I know what they like, especially when it comes to clothing, I find it tough to find the ‘right’ piece of clothing.

If you have very dry, brittle hair, you’ll be happy to know about a product using macadamia oil that is quite effective in treating dry, brittle hair.  Macadamia oil’s unique composition gives it an uncanny similarity and compatibility to your body’s own nautral oils.

Not only that, but macadamia oil allows for unbelievable absorption and rapid penetration into both the hair and skin.  It also is very rich in essential fatty acids.  The fatty acids help to soften and condition.

Many experts, including the American Heart Association and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), recommend consuming at least two servings of seafood a week.  Not sure where to start?  Gorton’s wide variety of flame-grilled options makes it easy and delicious to enjoy all the health benefits of seafood!

You will usually see my family playing around with electronics, a computer or a video game console.  But we enjoy playing ‘traditional’ games too.  Card games are something we enjoy playing when we have friends over in groups and have some fierce competition to win.

Ratuki is a new card game hitting the shelves this year from Hasbro Games.  It’s an amusing way to spend some quality time with your family and friends.  Best played with at least three people, it can accommodate five players, and has a quick game play.  

What do you do if your daughter doesn’t want the Barbie comforter that you just paid $40 for, because now she wants Hannah Montana instead? Would you like a coordinated look in the bedroom but can’t find curtains to match your set? Here are a few ideas I’ve used for redecorating on a shoestring budget.

Back in October I shared with you about Chili’s $20 Dinner for Two & Shout Out To Eat Contest.  Well there ended up being a computer crash somewhere along the way, and since the promotional company couldn’t account to whom the gift cards were sent to and who they weren’t, they sent some more my way!

The great thing is you can still eat big and spend small since Chili’s $20 For Two dinners are still on the menu.

One of the things my family enjoys doing the most is snuggling up in our living room with a big bowl of popcorn and watching movies.  That’s one of the reasons I created Play That Now, so I could have a blog where I talk about all things entertainment!
