I just finished reading the book Help Wanted, Desperately by Ariel Horn... There was a part near the end where Alexa, the main character, is applying for a job as a deodorant sniffer... When I was done with the book, my husband swiped it off my night stand saying that he "wants to laugh too."... It is the light and fluffy story of a girl, Alexa, who is about to graduate from college and can ' t get a job... In the classic chick lit style, our heroine finds her way and gets the guy... … View Post »

The makeup starts out white and when you put it on your skin in magically turns the color of you!... I saw the commercial late one night and immediately sent the husband out to the 24 hour grocery to pick up a tube... It goes on evenly and feels silky, like it is moisturizing your face, but not in a greasy way... No big line under your chin where you didn ' t blend quite right, or streaks on your forehead because you had to run and feed the baby mid-application... It is a little heavier than the foundation I usually use, and that will be good if I am having a bad skin day or am not feeling well and am looking pasty... … View Post »

You all know the problems I have with my hair... I swim every day in a chlorinated pool and in addition to making my hair crunchy, the chemicals are starting to make my hair change color... I have seen all these ads for color enhancing shampoo and conditioner... I don ' t know what that is all about, in my hand, it just looked like brown shampoo... I didn ' t notice any difference in color... … View Post »

I am not a big fan of artificially sweetened fruit flavored drinks... The color was kind of alarming as well... As for taste, it needs to be chilled... It had a strong cherry flavor that was quite zippy... The absolute best was when I put it in the freezer in the ice cube tray... For me, this tasted so much like juice, I wouldn ' t bother with it because I would drink juice instead... This would be very useful for me to throw in my purse, or for someone to keep in their desk at work... … View Post »

They looked like Totino ' s pizza rolls (which I love) but were less expensive... I had good luck with the last On-Cor frozen dinner, so I decided to give these a try Cook em up just like pizza rolls, and they look like pizza rolls, but that is where the similarity ends... I didn ' t like them at first because they really don ' t taste anything at all like pizza rolls... They aren ' t particularly cheesy and they have more dough that stays bready instead of the crispy pizza roll dough... … View Post »

I want to thank all of our military men and women and their families as well as all veterans for their service to this great country!... … View Post »

I got a sample of chocolate cake in the mail!!... Inside the box is a small plastic bowl, a little bag of cake mix, and a little packet of fudge icing... Direction one: Empty cake mix into bowl and stir in 1 tbsp water plus 1 teaspoon water... It is called Molten Chocolate Cake, but there really wasn ' t anything molten about it... As for taste, it was a little chemical tasting... Not that that is a huge thing for me considering my usual diet of convenience foods, but in the interest of full disclosure, I wanted to mention it... … View Post »
