My little one has a love for horses. It’s partially because her cousin has one, so she has been around one for some time now. When she saw the Fur Real horse Butterscotch at Target, she was enamored.

My husband is actually the one who introduced me to the Swiffer duster. He picked them up one day while we were shopping. They worked really well for dusting. In fact, he bought his Mom a box, so he could clean her ceiling fan. It worked like a charm.

I’m not a great cook. In fact, I’m in a rut of fixing the same meals week after week. Sometimes I flip through my cookbooks to find new recipes, but it’s always difficult to try new recipes. I usually have to buy ingredients that I normally don’t have on hand plus I without pictures I’m [...]

I received a lovely personalized locket from Picturesongold.com that I had gotten for Raegan. I plan to put it up and give it to her when she is a little older. The personal touches on the locket really make it stand out. I had her initials monogrammed on the front of the locket and one [...]

I’m so excited as the NeatReceipts I won from 5 Minutes for Mom arrived via UPS yesterday. I quickly unpacked everything and surveyed what I would need to do to get the NeatReceipts Scanalizer working.
