iConcertCal is a personalized concert calendar built for iTunes. It’s a free plug-in that works with iTunes to give you the concert schedule of any artist in your collection that is playing near your home in the next four months.
The program, which is available for both Windows and Mac, took me all of 45 seconds [...]

Please tell me you’ve seen the new OFF! product and you’re already using it. Their newest family care line is called “Smooth & Dry” and delivers just what the title suggests. Gone is the oil spill from your skin.
I saw this advertised in a magazine and picked up a bottle to try while outdoors this [...]

I’ve been blessed with beautiful hair, so I’ve been told. Many stylists are awed by how thick it is; always telling me how lucky I am and how it must be so nice to have hair to manageable.
I politely thank them knowing full well that they are paid to say that, and it could be [...]

As you know from previous stories, I either sleep like a rock or “roil”. Lately, it’s been the old tossing and turning for me until my life altering trip to Ikea.
In a shopping frenzy I found myself grabbing merchandise with wild abandon. One of the items I tossed into my cart without much [...]

Two PnP reviewers recently sampled & reviewed the Rocketfish Wireless Rear Speaker Kit. Did they like it? Keep reading to find out!

The main reason we had never gone the home theater route in our household is because I detest wires. I have about a frillion of them under my desk and I absolutely HATE them. [...]

One of the things I struggle with fairly regularly is finding my 7 year old daughter clothes that don’t make her look like a “prostitot.” While there are an abundance of low-slung pants and crop tops with spaghetti straps to get my jaw outta whack, nothing gets me grinding my teeth faster than the bathing [...]

Do you realize what season it is? If you guessed wedding season you’re correct! If your calendar is anything like mine it’s full of bridal showers and wedding receptions. Which means one thing - you must find the perfect gift.
Look no further as I have found a wonderful gift for weddings (and it would make [...]

I know Zappo’s has free shipping. They also have about 8 billion choices. I don’t do as well with so many choices. I end up spending entirely too much time browsing through pages and pages of shoes that might be cute, and then never making a decision.
There is a better online shoe option. If you [...]

My best friend Aviva makes the assertion “There is no bad food in New York!” I have always been more cautious about restaurant choices being my father is famous for his line “We’re not trying that place until it’s reviewed in The Times.”
However, over the weekend I was in New York with my mother- famous [...]

This new generation of sleeping pills that boasts no side effects is ruining the self-loathing consciousness of this world.
I say this because the countless nights I spend roiling (that word, in my mind, means a combination of rolling – as in tossing and turning- and broiling – as in, my own stew) are being erased [...]

I am a self professed girly girl. I sit here, smugly declaring this wearing no make up and sporting my VOTE FOR PEDRO t-shirt. Regardless, my inner soul is girly, I swear it is. And this inner soul is constantly in search of girly products to add to my [...]

My three year old got a set of Bright Starts Star Teether Beads for her one month old brother for Christmas. I had only just given them to him back in March when I learned via an email alert that they had been recalled because the star bead at the top had in some [...]

Deception. Cheating. Hypocrite. Adulterer. Liar. Poser. Valueless. Amoral. Me.
I got my children early from school, canceled the tutor appointment and left my zip code. From the beginning of the afternoon tryst my values started to peel away.
My son was shoveling sand under the slide with his 4-year old friend; my daughter was swinging as [...]

Do you own a lot of t-shirts that have yellow stained arm pits? I do.
Over the past few years I’ve noticed my sweat glands have changed and it doesn’t take much for me to have a hot flash (which I blame on pregnancy and hormones).
I have tried every brand you can find in the deodorant [...]
