Does anyone use travel agents anymore?
Earlier this evening my husband and I decided to escape the hot, stuffy conditions inside our condo and sit out on our balcony to enjoy slightly cooler air. It's also a great time to chat without the distraction of the kids, pets and TV. Some how our conversation turned to a discussion about vacations. Most especially where we would love to go … [More...]

Red Lobster Seafood Dinner for Two for only $25! Limited Time Offer (Giveaway ends 5/20/13
I love seafood. I don't think there is a seafood I won't eat, except eel and raw oysters. Eels scare me and raw oysters just look gross and slimy. :-) When I have the opportunity to eat out at a restaurant I always make sure to check out the seafood menu first and foremost.

**I received free product samples in order to do this review.** I am a forty-something year old woman, and I ♥ the Berenstain Bears. That is because I grew up reading their books. Over my childhood years I amassed a rather large collection of their books. I still have many of them that I had saved for my own children. They are now safely tucked away in … [More...]

My Ramblings
Keep your pets safe during the hot weather months
It's sad that I need to post something like this. Every summer I usually post something in regards to keeping your pet safe during the hot months. By now you would think that most people would know better than to leave their pet in a parked car while they go shopping or stop to have lunch. Sadly I continue to see dogs and cats left in parked cars. … [More...]
When all your dreams come crashing down
I am beyond devastated right now. I dare not let my husband or children know how I feel. I'm afraid if I start to talk about it I'm going to start balling my eyes out. I hate crying in front of my kids. :-( Ever since I was a little girl I have always dreamed of having a house. I have always envisioned what my dream house would look … [More...]
