Recently, I have been fascinated with olive oil . I do not know WHY Italian recipes call for vegetable oil when I olive oil tastes so much better. The other night I made home made pizza for my family and the recipe called for vegetable oil. YUCK! I definitely did not follow that recipe and used olive oil instead. So, we all know that olive oil is great for cooking AND baking...but what about for our skin and beauty needs? I did a bit of research regarding the use of olive oil and was surprised at all the benefits it has. Here are a few perks of using this wonderful oil: ~Hypoallergenic ~Natural ~Contains vitamins A and E which repair and renew the skin ~Contains rich emollients ~Provides strong antioxidants Those are just a few reasons why you should consider looking into using olive oil based beauty products for your skin. They are wonderful! Today, I am going to introduce you to a company that carries wonderful, all natural skin care products from Italy...the ...

Ever since I have been married I get LOADS of junk mail . It took awhile for companies to figure out that my name had changed but once they did...boy oh boy-I got more and more mail. In fact, 95% of my mail is junk mail. I wish there was a way to get the idea across to people that I love to get mail...just not THEIR mail. :) One thing that I have always had to do is shred my junk mail. You know, so crooks don't get their hands on it and steal my identity . That has never happened to me (to my knowledge) and I hope it never will! If you, like me, are concerned about keeping your identity secure than you have to check out Black Out .

Hubby's computer desk is in very sad shape. By that I mean the drawer is gone, it is scratched and dinged up and it is literally falling apart. Because he uses it a lot, the desk is a rather important piece of furniture. Not only does hubby use it, but while he is at work I also use it! It is a great sized desk for my sewing machine and can also be used as a work surface for my scrap booking hobby. When sewing on it I just need to remember to gather up the pins. :) Otherwise, he gets frustrated when he gets poked. LOL! Have you ever heard of Cymax's store called ComputerDesksnMore.com? Well, it is a wonderful online shopping adventure for sure! The selection of desks, bookcases, filing cabinets and computer desks is awesome! I have often wanted to just go out and buy a new desk for hubby but have not yet found the one that has my name written on it! So, if I were to choose a computer desk for my husband it would probably be the one pictured above. This gorgeous desk...

My children are one of the best "things" that have ever happened to me. I have always wanted to be a mother and when hubby and I found out we were expecting our first baby ...Christmas Eve morning in 2007, we were ecstatic. My live has not been the same since that day! The road of motherhood has been bumpy but I have learned so much and have really enjoyed each milestone. In my experience as a mom, I have found products that I love; and have also found products that I hate. Thankfully though, my "love" list is much longer than the "hate" list. :) Today, I am going to introduce you to a company that all mothers should know about and it is called Motherlove . This online store is focused on giving moms and babies some of the best, wholesome and eco-friendly products I have seen yet! Motherlove Herbal Company was founded by Kathryn Higgins, an herbalist, author and teacher. She has over 35 years of professional and personal experience and uses tha...
