I just read the cutest children's book called Perry the Pigeon and the Case of The Missing Scones, by Jan Soolman. This book came for me to review at the perfect time, as I will be heading to London myself in a couple weeks.

He is behind on rent, … [Read more...]

What's the best way to get clean and stay clean? Obviously by not touching things and spreading germs. LYSOL No-Touch Hand Soap helps you do just that! This winter has been rough with illnesses spreading around our family and friends. The kids go to school, so there are some germs they pick up there.

The Easter holiday is fast approaching. This day brings to mind many wonderful childhood memories of wearing fancy spring dresses, searching for eggs among the daffodils, and devouring that all important chocolate bunny.

Now, I have a family of my own and I am so happy to begin building holiday traditions with them. Last year, the … [Read more...]
