I love this camera. It fits easily into my purse and takes awesome pictures.  The Canon Digital Elph is the camera I use the most often. It takes clean, clear, crisp pictures. It features 7.1 Mega Pixels, a 3X zoom with a built in flash and features a removable battery that snaps into a charger that just goes into any outlet for quick recharging. This camera has red eye reduction features,...

Good old Comet Cleaner! It's been around forever, my mom used to use it. I had a stain on my kitchen counter and had tried another cleaner in a spray bottle. Phew! Not only did it stink something awful it didn't remove the grape juice stain. I really wanted to get that stain off my counter so I looked under the sink and way in the back there all alone and almost forget was a bottle of C...

I spent two weeks in Alaska recently visiting my son and famiy. My grandson is 18 months old and is a typical little toddler. One of his favorite toys to play with is his tub of Duplos. We made tall stacks, short stacks, buildings - you name it we made it. These blocks are made of bright colors and sturdy plastic pieces that are very easy for small hands to snap together and take apart. The sky...

I have twin sons who will soon be 18 and they are tall and skinny. I mean skinny. It is really hard to find any pants that will fit them in the waist and still be long enough. We have tried many brands over the last few years and have found that Old Navy not only fits them in the waist (size 29) but also come in a 32 inch inseam. Old Navy offers many styles of blue jeans from a basic fit to pai...

I had a demonstation of Cutco knives and boy am I in love with them, I only wish I could afford them. These knives are a cut above the rest of the brands out there. I own what I thought was a good set of knives - but I have discovered that I don't. Cutco knives are beautifuly constructed with no rivets holding the shank into the handle. I was able to cut through a piece of rope with only tw...

Do you suffer from allergies? My son had a very lengthy ear operation a few years ago. He was suffering with constant ear infections and had been placed on many different prescriptions medicines including ear drops, antibiotics and prescription allergy medications. The doctor decided to take him off of his prescription allergy pills this summer to see how he would do. I was worried at...

Like everyone else - I don't like having to pay more than I have to for any given service. When the local cable comapany - Time Warner started to offer phone plans I checked it out. For what I was paying at AT&T I could now have all the features I want including caller ID, caller ID waiting, call waiting, call forwarding and for a small extra charge voice mail. My son is in the Army sta...

Advil is my favorite pain reliever. I have tried other brands such as Tylenol and regular aspirin. Twenty years ago I slipped on the ice and shattered my ankle. I had surgery to repair the damage and was in a cast for six weeks. I was given a prescription pain medication by the surgeon but the prescription did not agree with my stomach. I contacted the doctors office and they recommended Advil....

Have you ever searched for a cheap ink pen that writes every time you pick it up? Well I have found one that I love - the Bic Grip. It comes in several colors of ink. I like this pen because it writes smooth and doesn't leave breaks. The Bic company makes many products and many types of ink pens and I have tried several other varieties of Bic as well as other companies ink pens. All I ...

Have you ever strayed from your usual brand of cleaning supplies. I have always been a Palmolive Dish Soap user but when I went to the store to buy dish soap there was no Palmolive on the shelf - the store needed to restock so I decided to try Joy. All I can say is that I don't like it at all. It doesn't make suds as the bottle says and I need to use twice as much as I do of my Palmoliv...

I joke to all my friends that doing laundry is my hobby. I do about 15 loads of laundry every week so I consider myself an expert on laundry soaps. I have treid all the major brands out there including Tide and Cheer. Tide and Cheer are excellent laundry soaps but for the price All Small And Mighty is fantastick. Not only is really concentrated so that you don't need to have a lot of space ...

I have always been a Panteen shampoo user but I needed some shampoo and didn't have enough money with me to but it and the Alberto VO5 was on sale so I thought I would give it a try. To my surprise and delight I loved it. The shampoo cleaned my hair just as well as the Panteen and for a fraction of the cost. The Alberto VO5 Moisture Milks come in many very pleasing scents and you will be su...

If you have any boys in your family then I am sure that at some point in time you have bought them some Hot Wheel Cars. As the mother of 5 boys I have bought my share of them over the years. Hot Wheels are constantly updating their car designs and your son or daughter will be sure to want to collect them all. My oldest son is 32 and my youngest is 18 and we still have a collection of Hot Wheels...

Well as a 50 something mom I do know something about Video Game Stystems having had 4 boys two of which just turned 18. My boys do not own a Nintendo WII but their cousin does and we went for a visit and they wanted us all to try the bowling game. Well I thought that this would be easy since I bowl in a league - well I was wrong. It is challenging to get it down to where you roll the ball where...
