Oreck Magnesium

living with two kids, two dogs, and - let's face it - a not-so-neat husband in a home with tile, laminate, AND carpeted floors means that i spend a LOT of my time cleaning the floors.  i despise using a broom.  mopping is not my favorite chore.  but, vacuuming, well, i don't mind it so much.  once upon a time, i had been using what i thought was the greatest upright on the planet.  but my opinion quickly changed when the oreck magnesium vacuum cleaner came into my life. when the oreck magnesium showed up on my doorstep {months ago...i've been holding out on y'all}, i squealed with delight!  yes, a new household appliance made me squeal with delight.  this, folks, is how you know you are indeed a grown up, but i digress... the magnesium required some assembly, but it wasn't … [Read more...]

This giveaway is closed.  Thank you for entering!   The winner has been announced.    it's no secret:  i love to shop.  however, shopping for groceries?  um, not so much.  when it comes to groceries, i'm not one to stick with a budget nor do i use coupons or price match. seriously, i don't have time for that.  i'll scour an ad and go.  i don't meal plan by what is on sale.  i also choose NOT to shop at multiple stores just to get the best deal.  of course, there ARE items that i will only get at certain stores...but that's different. when i was approached by mom central to do a little grocery shopping at one of the newly updated food lion stores in my area, i jumped at the chance.  why?  this was my chance to give a second chance to a grocery store that i rarely … [Read more...]

Celestial Seasonings

THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED. Thanks to all who entered!    it's no secret:  i love my keurig. i use it to make coffee {using either portion packs or freshly ground beans}, cocoa, tea & even hot water.  i love that i have the option of making iced teas & coffee with the keurig, too; however, i'm not a fan of the hot brew process for cold drinks.  but, i digress. so about tea... as much as i love coffee, i am also a tea drinker.  i grew up drinking tea.  i guess i can blame my heritage...in a sense.  i'm half-chinese, so i drink hot tea often.  chrysanthemum, jasmine, green...i love them all.  the caucasian in me {you know, because my daddy is from mississippi} loves sweet tea.  of course, i have other {unsweetened} favorites, too:  earl grey, english … [Read more...]
