Ok, a little known fact about moi!  There is a grocery store in my area that bakes some of the most tantalizing 'just like Grandma's' Cinnamon Buns and they're slathered with heavenly Cream Cheese Frosting...one box of these delectably heaven sent treats can pack on the poundage if one isn't careful but what's worse for me is that one sliver of even one corner of on...

Ok, I went to Lucky Plaza with my wife's auntie. She wants to seek a perfect gift for her relative. She wants to buy a phone which has full features but with cheap price range. Firstly, I am a bit confuse about making the right choice for her because there are so many China brands that provide full features such as MP3, MP4, Radio, Mobile TV, Video and Image Capture, Memory Card Slot, Theft...

Olhausen Billiards make a wide range of pool tables. This is a very good table but not even close to their best one.  This is a maple table with a mahogany finish. The rail sights are round pearl.  It has leather shielded pockets, Accu-Guard Cloth (by Hainsworth of England), and American made Accu-Fast Cushions (with lifetime warranty).This table has had a lot of hard use (kids playin...

I am not a big fan of guns, which is kind of strange because I grew up in a family of avid hunters. I also married a hunter. Right before we got married in 2005, my husband won a bear hunting trip to Maine. Because these trips book up so early he had to book his for September 2006, on the week that coincided with our first anniversary.Even though my husband has many guns, he did not have one th...

  I hadn't used a deep fryer in years.  With the trend to healthier foods I think I threw mine out about 5 years ago.  It wasn't really a problem until recently when my husband asked if I would make him Scotch Eggs out of the blue.  It's something I used to make for Sunday breakfast all the time years ago and now he had a hankering for them!!I said sure, but hone...

My friend got me hooked on this game a couple months ago. She sent me the link to it and I haven't been able to stop playing it in my spare time since. It is a Flash game on the internet called Bubble Shooter. You start with a field of multi colored balls (bubbles). There are 6 colors all together (red, green, dark blue, light blue, yellow and pink). You shoot bubbles at this field of bubbl...

We have a long driveway at our house in which we can not see when people pull in or park. I wanted a way to know when people pull up so I was not caught off guard when someone came to the door. I have been told by many people to try this driveway doorbell system by Bunker Hill from Harbor Freight. Many of my family and their friends have had great results with this system. I even talked to...

Here I am again doing another Aveeno review! This time I am reviewing the new shampoo and conditioner just out in stores this month of May 2009. When I first saw the ad for Aveeno Shampoo/Conditioner, I was really surprised and wanted to try it right away. I use Aveeno Baby Wash for my children. So Yes, I really want to try the adult shampoo/conditioner. I wanted to try the Aveeno Replenish for...

  We got this just a month or so ago because my 6 month old son got sick with a cold. He was miserable! Coughing, sneezing and was having a hard time sleeping because of it. In the past with my other kids, I had always used a Vicks Vaporizer so this time I went looking for the same thing. We went to Walmart and there were a few other brands but Vicks has been around forever (I think eve...

LifeStyle excite sensual gel is a product that is supposed to increase female pleasure during the sexual experience.  I found this gel while I was a breastfeeding mom, and in need of something (anything!) to increase my arousal.  If I had to write a one-word response to this product, it would be 'wow!'  A few seconds after application, you will begin to feel a warm, tingl...

Our new house came with a Rheem Fury Rheemglas Energy Miser water heater model # 82v52.2 It has a 50 gallon tank with both upper and lower heating elements and is 240 volts.  This is the first electric water heater we have ever owned and we were not familiar with the Rheem brand. We did some research on them and found that they are the number one name brand of water heaters and a favorite...

It was love at first sight when we saw the Samsung 46" Luxia LED 6000 TV at the store. This television has the most beautiful, clear picture we have ever seen in a TV. The picture is so good, everything appears to be in 3D and you feel like you can reach in and touch it. It has a 120 HZ scan rate, double what used to be available in LCD TV's, which reduces motion blur in fast moving ac...

I got suckered into buying a car security system because, well, who knows where I'll take my car in this life. It's an investment, so why not put the money down? I have a KARR Security System and I can say there are some benefits and some negatives here.Does it do a good job as an alarm system? Yes. It has three modes so I can set the security level of the system to suit my taste. There...

The Diamondback Sorrento is a reasonably priced mountain bike which holds up well to easy off-road or dirt-road riding.  This is not a bike for technical riders, but may be perfect for your needs if you want to do just a bit more than paved-road touring.Our family has a long history of road touring by bike.  Nevertheless, I wanted a bike that I could ride on the dirt roads near our ho...

When we needed to buy a truck, we searched long and hard.  We ended up with a Ford F250 V10 4X4 Super Duty XLT Extended Cab.  Ford's reputation for value, the fact we had owned Fords previously, and the classic style brought us to our gem of a truck.  Ford trucks are work horses!  The Ford F250 V10 4X4 Super Duty XLT can tow up to 10,000 pounds!  This is a life...

Prepaid credit cards are a new concept in Canada. Until recently you could only get a prepaid credit card at Bank of Montreal (if you wanted a MasterCard) or Royal Bank (if you wanted a VIsa). Now, stores like Shoppers Drug Mart sell prepaid MasterCard Gift Cards. Vanilla MasterCard is the company that issues the prepaid MasterCards for Shoppers Drug Mart. Why buy prepaid credit cards? Prepaid ...

Since my seventeen year old daughter decided she wants to be a fashion designer, (who doesn't, after seeing Project Runway creations?!) it was apparent that she would need to learn to sew. I am a firm believer in nurturing my childrens' interests, so off we went to go sewing machine shopping. (It didn't hurt, of course, that I've been wanting a new machine for myself since mine ...

My husband and I have a queen size Stearns and Foster mattress which we have had for a number of years now.  It is a relatively comfortable mattress and firm without being too firm.One feature I don't like about it, though, is that when my husband tosses and turns, I feel every move on my side of the bed.  Maybe that's partly because I'm such a light sleeper and ...

OK, I jumped on the band wagon with making Halloween decorations using the fake carvable foam pumpkins.  I have seen these in craft stores for several years and never really got the urge to do anything with them.  My daughter and I saw an ad for several different characters in our local Michael's Craft Store ad, but we found many more available on line at their website.&...

The new Dial For Men Magnetic Attraction Enhancing Body wash is an interesting product due to the fact that it claims to have pheromones infused in it. Now I'm under the impression that pheromones supposively are what attracts the opposite sex so it sounds like a guys dream, right? Well, I don't know if it attracts the opposite sex being that I'm engaged but, it sure doesn't see...
