Putting the HAHAHA in the HOHOHO
Image courtesy of Flickr It’s December (very much so) and my tree’s up but there’s nothing under it. Unless you count the tree skirt … does that count? And yes, you read that right: nothing under it! I always put a lot of thought into what I get every one. I want them to go “wow, just what I needed” or “I love it” so I do a lot of looking and window shopping [procrastinating]. What happens each and every year and seems to get later and later (pretty soon I’ll be out with all the men on Christmas Eve scurrying … oh who am I fooling I usually am out *lol*).…

All I want for Christmas is…
SWEETS! And even more and more and more! “Don’t want a doll! No dinky tinker toy!”* I want chocolate, cakes, brownies, fudge, and the like! Oh, I’d also really enjoy it more if I did not gain any weight too! Well, the first part of that “want” is relatively easy … the second part is a no.can.do as I gain just looking at these marvelous creations. So without wasting any more of your time, and because I’m starving (wanting to lick spoons and bowls really bad) I’ve listed some favorites I’ve run across that you can share with friends/family and even make as gifts this holiday. Enjoy *drool* Five Minute Fudge Wreath from Tidy…

Latest & Greatest :: The Amazon fireTV
Image courtesy of lsbf.org.uk Amazon fireTV delivers! For the past two weeks, the kids and I have been trying out the new “amazon fireTV” courtesy of the folks over at Amazon. It’s super small. Like tiny. I can grab it and slip it into my purse and take it on vacation with me ‘small’. I like that. I like it. Now you’re probably going “hmm, how small is it”? Let me tell you! It’s just 3/4 of an inch (thick) – it’s a tad smaller than my external backup drive! You can sit that baby anywhere and it blends right in (you may even go where is it … haha)!…

Must-Have: Younique … Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes
For about a year now, I’ve seen friends or friends of friends posting on social media regarding “Younique” makeup. Mainly, their “Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes” mascara. I’ve been curious and clicked on the links and read from reviews to testimonials. So when I had a chance recently to try it out – okay, I begged *lol* I was skipping around the house anxiously awaiting the arrival. Let me explain why: A couple years ago I noticed if I didn’t wear mascara that my long, thick beautifumous lashes were no more (hangs head in shame). I can and do go days without makeup (maybe a little powder and/or lip gloss – that’s…

TECH A BREAK… You Won’t Get Board!
About a month ago it was my weekend to keep the kids (I have them during the week as well but we do try and plan out weekends with fun things so it’s not just school, homework etc and I’m perceived as no fun) … anyway, they were calling for rain. ALL WEEKEND LONG. Now, having two children ages 8 and a newly anointed 7 year old, hearing rain all weekend and cold means being cooped up and boring! So, I said “hey, here’s an idea. I think you two are old enough for board games now.” My daughter (the youngest) got excited. My son barely…
