JACK’S Pizza was created in 1960 by a man named Jack in search of the perfect pizza in Little Chute, WI.  He delivered JACK’S Pizzas to his neighbors and residents of the small town, and as word spread, JACK’S became a favorite throughout the Midwest.  Today, JACK’S Pizza is still made with 100 percent real Wisconsin cheese and the perfect combination of meats and sauce on a thin, crispy crust.

Aqua Clean Concentrate is another product from the Stanley Home Prouducts line.  This is the latest product I was sent to try and it is for cleaning fine washables.  I love the glass cleaner from Stanley Home Products and have been happy with the lotion I tried from their spa line as well.  The product description said that with Aqua Clean Concentrate you can soak your fine and delicate washables clean in just three minutes, while using half the water of an ordinary load, BUT you can also use it in your washing machine.  This I found interesting because well…I don’t handwash anything.  Nada. Nil. Zip. Zero.  I don’t even buy it if it says handwash on the label.

Little boys, big boys doesn’t matter their age; if it makes noise, lights up and goes vroom, they love it …. right?!  And I have no doubt that if the little boy in your life loves vehicles, CAT Motorized Job Site Machine toys will be a hit under the tree this year.

I got to review the Dump Truck, suitable for children ages 3 and up.  You see all the buttons in the middle?  Well that’s what makes this Dump Truck make noise, flash lights and go vroom!

A few weeks ago, I was introduced to the company Robert’s Remedies.  One of the reasons I was interested in trying their products is because all Robert’s Remedies are paraben free and instead contain only the most basic of preservatives.  But the even more interesting thing about them is their use of Essential Brewer’s Yeast Extract (eBYE) in their products.

FROM THE BACK COVER:

Here lies a most precious treasure,
Awaiting one Chosen to deliver.

For on this your greed mustn’t feast.

The holiday merry making is in full swing around our home.  The decorations are up, stockings hung, presents wrapped and goodies baked.  And with all of that…I need caffeine. LOL!

But seriously ask my husband and daughter what’s on my Christmas list every year and you’ll find coffee.  If I’m not mistaken one of the presents currently under my tree currently has some in it…or perhaps coffee accessories, but whatever it holds, I’m pretty sure it’s coffee related.

I just turned 38 and bi-focals are sure to be in my future soon, bah!  I usually use our eye care insurance to get my contact lenses covered.  Then armed with the Rx of my glasses from the optometrist I purchase cheap eyeglasses online.

When I say cheap I actually mean inexpensive, because when I’ve purchased eyeglasses online I’ve never had a problem with quality, the lenses have always been cut to my prescription.  You can usually find stylish frames that look like designer branded ones for a fraction of the price.  I mean really, who besides you knows what’s stamped on the inside of the frame anyway?  Buying from an online optical website gives me a

We don’t go see a lot of movies in the theater, mostly for two reasons.  One, we cruise about once a year on the Disney Cruise Line and since they have all the recent movies from Disney and Touchstone on board we like to watch those on our sea days (so technically I guess we do see them in a ‘theater’ we just do it on the ocean LOL!). 

So I just shared with you not long ago about DuPont’s Teflon SHIELD Wiper Blades, and now I’m all about the Teflon Non-Stick Cookware, and this particular line is holiday shiny!  To celebrate a Golden Anniversary (50 years!), you can pick up some Teflon Non-Stick pans with a beautiful gold toned finish.  Check this skillet out.

Smokey is a real working fire truck brought to life.

This interactive buddy talks, tells jokes, eats, exercises and sings, oh yeah and farts (yes, farts), and he’s great fun for kids.

Get ready for hours of imaginative fun with Smokey the Fire Truck from Matchbox.  It is well constructed and easy for kids to play with.  The levers work smoothly and stay locked in place when they are supposed to.  The cannon comes with three “water” balls that fire well, but don’t hurt too much when you are the target.
