No Cooking Under Pressure with the Power Pressure Cooker XL
The last six months I have listened to my friends rave about their “lemming” pot. I would read and listen intently and never really thought about it. To me, I thought it was for “larger families” and not my small one. Then one night after the holidays were in the rear-view mirror I woke up to the tele (yes, I’d left it on) and there on my television was the Power Pressure Cooker XL. I have never been as fascinated as I was right then and there (and still am). I wanted to make ribs, macaroni, chili, and everything else in a fraction of the time, in one pot no less;…

Butter Pecan Cake with Buttercream Maple (Pecan) Frosting
A crisp fall day. The smell of pumpkins and leaves in the air. And chilly. You can smell that too. Just enough to walk a little brisk or to throw on a scarf and where you pull your boots out. Whether Fall has just begun or it’s full in swing and you’re looking for a dessert for Thanksgiving or Christmas this Butter Pecan cake with a Buttercream Maple Frosting always tugs at my heart strings. It makes me want to lick the bowls (yes, plural) and sniff the air washing down the hallway; or sneak into the kitchen to see how much time is left only to hear my mom…

Bitdefender BOX for Your Home Security Protection
Consumer security is constantly changing. What does that mean for your devices and not just your PC or MAC. I’m talking about everything: phones, computers, iDevices, Android products, even your gaming system (think PlayStation or others that use wi-fi), even your household products or your digital streaming device (Roku for example). Home security should be something you are thinking about and wanting to make secure. A top priority. With your computer you most likely use software (antivirus/malware). Scary times. A new product is looking to change and revolutionize this and the way you think about it. It’s like a security solution for the “Internet of Things”. There are so many…

Order medicines online safely with the new .pharmacy
Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Carmen Catizone, MS, RPh, DPh (Executive Director/Secretary of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy a/k/a “NABP“) and lawyer, Libby Baney, J.D. (Founder/Executive Director of Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies a/k/a “ASOP Global“) regarding the June 3rd launch and release of .pharmacy [dot pharmacy] to the general public. This is a long time coming regarding verifiable and vetted online sites for ordering online medications (prescription or not). Due to the high-volume of sites (and ads) that consumers see on a daily basis they have undertaken the process of working with distributors and Pharmacy Organizations where they must pass a stringent 10-point system in…

Father’s Day Gift Ideas
It’s almost time for dad’s to get their day of recognition (June 21st) this year. On that note, I decided to put some things together from free to high for the man/men in your life. *Note: a couple freebies are below for child(ren) to make with your assistance for their dad/grandpa* I’d also like to take a moment and say: this year will be eight years of not having my dad here to splurge on, make fun of, laugh with, and really just see him and get that huge bear-hug which engulfed me and made me feel three all over again. I was/am/always will be a daddy’s girl. I miss looking into my…
