I received a complimentary Phillips Norelco Bodygroom shaver to review but judging by hairless hotties on the box, it’s clearly intended for the man of the household so I passed it off to the huz and let him take it for a spin.
Since I had reminded him beforehand not to go crazy because stubble can [...]

The Product Ho strikes again! This time it’s not coffee or yogurt or anything edible. No, it’s this adorable little 2.4 oz. MP3/Video player from Insignia that arrived in my mailbox a few days ago. But it’s SO cute that I almost do want to eat it.
Now, I’m pretty much a whiz on the computer, [...]

I love coffee. Plain coffee with a spot of half and half, pronounced haaaf and haaaf where I live. No sugar. I’ve never gone in for all those girly coffees with the cutsie names and the fattening additives. Just gimme a coffee ‘regulah’ no sugar, please.
Until today. Today my mind has been forever changed. Changed [...]

Her name is Mabel.
Okay, maybe Mabel’s not a real person, but her labels rock! Mabel’s Labels just might be the best thing since sliced bread, as they say.
Developed by a group of 4 Canadian moms who were frustrated with losing their childrens’ items everywhere they went. They decided to form a business together and develop [...]

Since my husband had surgery the day before Thanksgiving, I tried out the holiday catering services offered by our local Whole Foods grocery. Whole Foods was more expensive than other local stores, but their proximity to my house and absolutely delicious sounding menu items won me over.
Whole Foods had a huge variety of foods [...]

How many cleaning products do you have under your sink? I dare you to count. If you’re number is less than five, you’re less of a sucker than I am. I’m always looking for that product to make my life easier, faster and cleaner. As a busy Mom [...]

Why, a pee-pee teepee by Beba Bean, of course!
These Canadian-made, 100% cotton cones are designed to cover the sprinkling pee-pee during diaper changes. Anyone with a son knows why that’s necessary. We were given these as a baby gift by a good friend, and the simple act of putting these into the parcel [...]

For years, I was The Girl With Bad Nails. I chewed ‘em down to the quick, and then I went to work on my ragged, dry cuticles until they were bloody. It wasn’t pretty.
Fortunately for me, and for anyone else who might ever see my hands, I trained myself out of the chewing. I can [...]

If you have children old enough to color, you are surely familiar with how quickly a pristine new box of crayons turns into a box of broken stubs and little peeled paper bits. It’s a scenario that I remember from when I was a little kid and as an adult, I find it oddly irritating.
Fortunately, [...]

The Baby Buddy Nursing Pillow was the first gift I received after my son was born. It was expected, and it didn’t come a moment too soon.
When I was about eight months pregnant, we had one of my best friends as a house guest for the weekend. She is a mother of two [...]

I have very odd feet. They’re not only big, but very wide as well. This makes it very hard to find shoes for special occasions, as most dress shoes do not come in my size, 10.5 EE. When I have a fancy dress type occasion I usually start searching for acceptable shoes weeks in advance, [...]

I’ll let you in on a little secret. My family LOVES turkey. Loves it more than any other dinner I make. My son is such a turkey fiend that he likes to weigh himself before and then after Thanksgiving dinner, just to see how much food he stuffed down his gullet. Last year was something [...]
