"Our Kenmore Did Not Live Up To Expectations"

The Kenmore refrigerator in the house where I grew up lasted 20 years. That's why when I was buying a refrigerator for my own first home, I headed to Sears to pick up a Kenmore. Things have changed. The refrigerator we bought was a side-by-side model in white with a freezer on the left and a fridge on the right. The warranty lasted a year. We hoped we'd have this fridge much, much longer than that. It kept things cold, it's true, although I quickly discovered that the side-by-side models are no...

"Looking Cute on the Snowmobile!"

My husband and I like to rent snowmobiles sometimes in the winter for some cold weather fun. I used to just use the helmets provided, but when I saw this pink one I was hooked. I like the idea of having my own helmet for a number of reasons. For one thing it makes me feel like a much more experienced snow bunny than I actually am. Also I like that I'm not wearing a helmet that hundreds of people have worn before me. I know that mine has never been in an accident and is safe. I know, being taken in by a helmet's color isn&...

"Water Wheel Play Table for Kids"

The Step2 Water Wheel play table is a fun toy for warm weather activity. Toddlers and preschoolers can splash and play in the water table. The toy comes with a couple of boats, but you could add almost any bathtub toy of your own. The water wheel feature is unique, and the kids really seem to love it! The toy is plastic and about as durable as you would expect. It's fairly easy to clean. Just dump it upside-down and wipe it out. The downsides to this toy are that it does seem to leak a little and it has no cover. You've g...

"Who Was That Blur? "

Have you ever looked out your window and seen a short, round woman in her 30s whooshing down the sidewalk in roller blades? Hey, that could have been me!I am not all that athletic, but roller blading is something I love to do. I started with a cheaper paid of skates but I knew almost immediately that I would need an upgrade. In in-line skating you really need to spend some money to get the best skates. My cheaper ones did not secure my ankles very well, and my feet would hurt after I went skating. I upgraded to these ...

"Not Just For Kids!"

Trader Joe's has done it again. This adorable little plastic bear holds a children's chewable multi-vitamin. Yes, they are for kids. However they are just fine for adults too. One dose is two vitamins. They taste kind of chalky-fruity, like you expect from a chewable vitamin, although they don't have that overwhelming orange Vitamin C taste you sometimes find. They are in the shape of little bears, and they are in various pastel colors. I like these because sometimes you just don't want to swallow one of those gia...

"The Impatient Gardener"

Every spring I get a little bit ahead of myself. Where I live you are not supposed to plant anything until Mother's Day. Mother's Day?! That's almost summer! I cannot possibly be expected to wait that long. That's why I like this little greenhouse tent. I can put these suckers right over my poor little plants and it's suddenly summer in their tiny space of earth even if it's still slightly frosty everywhere else. No it's not going to survive a snowstorm, but it works for th...

"Perfect Portraits"

There have been thousands of pictures taken of my daughter in her short life. More than a few of those were professional portraits. I have tried the expensive places that claim to be so fabulous. They are okay. But nothing beats good old JC Penney Portrait Studio at the mall. There is where I've learned to turn to again and again for beautiful portraits of my daughter. The studio near our house will even take dogs! The trick to getting the most out of Penney's Portraits is to find yourself a coupon. You have to get the on...

"Would Do It Again"

We needed a lot of money at one time for something of an emergency. Luckily our house is worth a lot more than we purchased it for, even with the bad economy. We decided to take out a Home Equity loan. It worked out well. We were able to apply for the loan online, which was nice. Then a representative from Wells Fargo came to our house to sign the papers. We got a pretty good interest rate, and we are pretty much happy with this. The one thing we didn't like about this experience was that our Wells Fargo Customer ...

"Great baby wipes for a low price"

Target's new brand, Up & Up, has been coming out with some terrific products. Among them are a new brand of baby wipes that are soft to the skin and come in several varieties. My daughter has sensitive skin, and other products can contribute to diaper rash or make her break out. I always try to stay away from any products with fragrance added. Sometimes even then they are too harsh for my daughter. I really love these sensitive skin wipes from Target. They work, they are gentle and they are inexpensive. I don't have a...

"Washing With Power! "

I have to admit that I am new to the world of power washing. This spring, though, I looked around outside my house and realized that there were lots of things that could use some cleaning. I went to my local home improvement store to see what I could find to do the job. What did I see? Power Washers! I have discovered something fantastic! I feel light a firefighter when I spray my deck, house and fence with my power washer. It just smacks all that dirt right off. It's actually rather addictive. LIke I said, I don&...

I love this activity table! The Leapfrog Learn & Groove table offers literally hours of play to toddlers. My daughter has been loving this table since she was 9 months old and she got it as a gift. The music is upbeat and fun. My daughter loves dancing to the beat. There are tons of buttons to push and play with, and there are spanish options as well as English. Many instruments and musical styles are represented, and I believe this toy has helped my young daughter develop an appreciation and love for music. The signature Lea...

"Why pay extra to wipe your baby's bottom? "

Target has recently changed its store brand name to Up & Up. We shop at Target several times a week, and we use the Target brand all the time. Their baby wipes are cheaper than brand name wipes, but they are exactly the same thing. They also come in sensitive varieties as well as in a couple of different scents. I don't know why anyone would buy expensive baby wipes. I've never had a problem at all with these wipes, and my daughter certainly doesn't know the difference! I like to buy a large packet of the "refills&q...

"Non-Toxic Glass Cleaner"

You know that glass cleaner you use with the toxic chemicals? You don't have to use that. There is alternative that does the job just as well, smells great and is non-toxic. I am always looking for green and natural products for my house and family. Now that there is a baby in our house, it is especially important for me to use products that are green and will not harm her in any way. I really like the Method products. They aren't super expensive like some green products can be, and I can get them at Target wh...

"This Penguin Gave Me Happy Feet"

I knew we needed a humidifier for my daughter's room so that she could be comfortable during the night. We looked at some of the more expensive models but decided to give this one a try. Okay, so I will admit that a big plus to this is that it's cute as it can be. It sits on my daughter's dresser next to a couple of teddy bears, and it looks like it could be a toy. Now that my daughter is older we do a lot of pointing and giggling at the penguin. So I guess it's more than a humidifier. It's a toddler conversat...

"Greeting Cards for 44 Cents!"

I love greeting cards. I love to get them, and I love to send them. It makes me sad that greeting cards through the mail are becoming a thing of the past. It makes sense. Why would someone go out and spend $2 or $3 on a greeting card, plus more for the stamp, when they could send one instantly for free over e-mail?Maybe these budget greeting cards will help bring back the popularity of the physical greeting card! I have seen cards for $1, and I thought that was pretty good. Now Walmart is selling cards for 44 cents! T...

I remember how much I used to admire them and I remember thinking to myself that one day when I had a daughter I was going to get her these delicate, sweet pieces. Now I do have a little girl, and I have started a collection of these for her. They are just as precious as I remember them.These are a collection of little figurines of girls. They go from a baby to age 16. Each year's girl gets a little tall...

My poor baby has had a terrible time with teething. She's just one of those kids that has a hard time cutting teeth. I have known children who cut teeth with no problem at all, and I have known children who just fuss and drool a little. My daughter actually screams in pain the night before a tooth pops out. It's so sad. She's on molars now, and it's just been awful. One thing that seems to help her is baby ibuprofen, so I keep it handy. The name brand stuff can be quite expensive, but the Target brand is just...

"What Was I Thinking? "

I was taken in by the Home Shopping Network. When I first saw the Tan Towels demonstrated on HSN I thought to myself - yeah, right. But that's what happens with HSN. At first you think the product is useless, but you watch those happy big-haired women for awhile and they get you! This has happened to me more times than I would like to admit. The thing that got me was the leg test. You know, when they tan one leg and don't tan the other? I am a sucker for that stuff. Tan Towels come in a metallic ba...

I enjoy aquariums and have been to several. Some are huge, and some are small. The Adventure Aquarium is in New Jersey just across the river from Philadelphia. You can get there from Philly via a ferry boat. You can also get there by train, or you can drive. I've never had trouble parking.This is a mid-size aquarium with a couple of really fun exhibits. There's a nice, big theatre style area to sit and view the large tank. There are also several other places to view this tank. They have a shark tunnel, which is always a h...

My hair color comes out of a box. It's true. I'm just not a person who can see spending all that money to have my hair professionally colored. It might happen one day when our income is higher, but for now my blonde is coming from that little tube. I have been using Nice & Easy since I was 16 and started coloring my hair. That's because it's what my mom used, and I didn't see any reason to change. I did start using Hydriance for awhile but they've apparently stopped making that. So it was back to ...
