I was so excited to get this product to review because our house is FULL of electronics that the cloth duster just doesn't do the job. Having kids using the iPad, my cell phone, the laptop and Cd's they tend to get their fingerprints on everything. I hate when I get my iPad back from the kids and it looks like they touched the screen with at least 100 fingers in the 30 minutes they had it, so it's Scott’s Liquid Gold Clean Screen to the rescue. I really love this product because it gets rid of all those kid fingerprints on all my electronics. Every household should get a bottle or two!
You don't have to use much- couple sprays on the microfiber cloth (provided) and wipe down. It doesn't leave any streaks or a nasty smell. A few years ago I smudged up one of our TVs trying to clean it with Windex- Bad Pam! But now I don't have to worry about damaging any electronics because I plan to use Scott’s Liquid Gold Clean Screenfor a very long time!

REVIEW:
Last week we received a Queen Medium Filled Synthetic Pillow from MaggiesDirect.com to review and WOW we are super impressed. I don't think I ever slept on such a comfy pillow expect for in Hotels. The first week I told my hubby "I" had to sleep on it because I had to do the review. But this is the 2nd week and I'm still not giving him a chance to sleep on it...this pillow is MINE! I have always bought my pillows from Target/Kmart and always under $10. No wonder I haven't slept well in years! The past week I've have slept in pure dreamland and every morning so refreshed! I'm never going back to those cheap pillows ever again!
This Exclusive Shopping Event is pretty exciting! Anything on the hotel collection page will earn the purchaser 50% back in Social Bucks. WOW- who does that! There is no minimum order - so no matter what you order you get rewarded. How about the Free Shipping on everything to lower 48 ($15 to AK/HI and $20 to Canada.) Sale ends April 15th!
What I'm trying to tell you is~ this is an amazing deal! For example: Their Queen Warmer level comforter normally retails for $149 so then the customer gets 50% back in Social bucks- $74 to spend on something else. LOVE THIS!
What is SOCIAL BUCKS: 1 Social Buck equals 1 Dollar in product credit for anything on Maggie's site including clearance and sale items.

Oh my goodness when this toy arrived I couldn't get my daughter to put it down to do her homework. She was having a blast trying to figure this maze out. Then my son who is 10 yrs old got his hands on it (only when my daughter was busy with something else) and he was hooked too! They even have a competition on who can get the furthest. WHAT TOY AM I TALKING ABOUT:
Product Description: The Extreme Stunt Set is simply amazing! It comes with many of the pieces of the Super Starter Set, PLUS, various trick parts that let you make the marble fly through the air, loop de loop , zig zag and twist in ways that you can only imagine!
Perplexus is a can't-put-down challenge!! Flip, Twist and spin the transparent sphere to move the ball along the numbered path working with and against gravity. Be careful, faster than the blink of an eye your ball can fall off course and you'll have to begin again. Fun for the whole family with over 100 barriers to master.

What is an Eraselet, you ask? Well, it's a bracelet that erases. They are convenient, fun, and practical. They come in various colours, and styles. They work very well, just as well as any other eraser I've used. So now, why would I go and buy an eraser I have to look for? I wouldn't, because I have an Eraselet.
The Eraselet was invented by Bryan Ricci after his 3 daughters kept loosing their erasers. Eraselets are a fun, fashionable and functional school supply that give kids a new way to keep up with their erasers. Eraselets are made in the USA and give 10% of their net proceeds to Erase World Hunger, a non-profit started by Brian & Kimberly Ricci to help feed orphans around the world.

She is so much more organized than I am! She wants to have a Hello Kitty Party~ awww I love Hello Kitty! This will be so much fun. She hasn't really ever had a real birthday party with friends so this is a big step for her. She even gave up an iPod to have this party. We told her we were unable to buy her the big presents she wants ( Friends Lego House and iPod) and have a party so she had to figure it out. She came to us later and said okay 1 present and a Party!
Now time to PLAN! I was going through Pinterest for party ideas. I already have someone doing Hello Kitty Cake Pops~ https://www.facebook.com/TotalPackageEvents - a sister duo who is super talented in party stuff. So I can check that off my list.
I can do these:
Now maybe I can pull something like this off (haha):
This is hecka cute but might be too young for her
I just asked Daddy if he would be willing to make a Hello Kitty Birthday Banner (airbrushed) and he said OF COURSE! Check that off the list- picture opportunity!
I will need to find PARTY SUPPLIES:
This is just the first stage of PLANNING so you will see more! All pictures (except Sahara's Plan) is from Pinterest- you should be able to click on picture.
We were contacted to TRY this product and I'm so happy they reached out to us because what an awesome product. My kids really enjoyed having this as their snack when they got home from school. They were able to take it outside with them, instead of having to sit at the table. They both said they like the flavors and the taste. I was impressed because they don't always like HEALTHY snacks! My son like the chocolate and my daughter LOVED the Strawberry flavor. The request to get more is already on the grocery list. The bars need to be refrigerated so I didn't send them in their lunches but after looking at the Facebook page- you can freeze them and by lunch they would be thawed! What a great idea! What I like the best is my kids loved them and it FILLED them up! Sometimes I have to give them kids 3-4 different snacks for them to get full- the Milk Bites granola bars worked!
You can find KRAFT MILKBITE Milk Granola Bars in the refrigerated dairy aisle at your local store. Their suggested retail price is $3.49.
From Kraft~KRAFT MILKBITE Bars are a new, unique innovation in snacking made with real milk and calcium to provide the same calcium as an 8 oz glass of milk. A wholesome alternative to existing bars, KRAFT MilkBite Bars are adeliciously different snacking experience the entire family can enjoy!

When I got the package in the mail from Shoplet.com to do a REVIEW on Duck Tape/Packaging Tape I was like WOW what the heck am I going to do with the tape. Oh boy, there is 101 things I can use duck tape for and didn't even think about!
With the Duck EZ Start Premium Packaging Tape I fixed a book cover for my daughter, I fixed a poster for my son (that my daughter ripped off the wall) and I taped up boxes that was put in storage.
My hubby had to send off a box the other day and the excited in his eyes when I pulled out the Duck EZ Premium Packaging Tape with Dispenser was priceless. He hates the Post Office so anything to help speed up the process is a dream for him. He really liked how easy it was to use the tape. You can use it perfectly with just one hand and it doesn't look like a 5 yr old did it! I've seen him tape up boxes before and I always giggle because it looks like a mess but this box didn't. He has to ship boxes out every couple weeks so he is super happy we have this tape at home now. Also when he found out I had other tape he took one downstairs and repaired some of his airbrush stuff.

When I started reading this book, my children were visiting my parents, on that very same island, where everything is so magical, serene, and where freedom is the attraction. Knowing my 9 year old son would love this book, and to hopefully open up his imagination while he was there, I asked him to read it as well. It was such an awesome opportunity for my son and I to connect, and relive the magical experience of Iris and my childhood, together.
I have so many different connections with this book.
I really don't want to reveal too much about this book, because I have already demanded that my book buddies read this astonishing masterpiece. Although, I'm not sure if any of them will be able to connect to this book as much as I have.
It's a magical story of Iris, who is connected with her Dragonfly friends but doesn't know why. She later learns that she has special connections with not only her closest human friends, but as well with the Earth. It's one of those books that I couldn't just put away and forget about for a few days. I had to read it every lunch hour, and every night at bed time. This book covers all the important aspects of life - family, friendship, loyalty, history and imagination.
That's it! I'm not spilling another word!!! I don't want to ruin it for you.
Rosemary has such a talent with words. It was so well written and very easy to understand and feel. There were times when I couldn't help but wonder if it was written for me, as some sort of sign. I related to the setting, the main character, and most interesting of all, I relate to what Iris, the Dragon Seer, was born to protect, Her, Mother Earth.
As strange as this may sound, I almost felt like my childhood came to a halt when the book ended. I really hope that Rosemary Danielis doesn't keep my inner child locked up for too long! :)
How would you like to go back to your childhood for a few hours a day and see the world through Iris's eyes? Enter below, for your chance to win, one of 5 Kindle versions and one AUTOGRAPHED paperback of Iris and the Dragonflies. That's right! 6 winners!!!

Pinterest, though rhyming with interest, is only loosely related! Basically, it’s a virtual pinboard just like the corkboards we had in our rooms as kids and you may still have in your home or office. Pinterest is a social networking site that allows users to create photo collections online – like online, upscale scrapbooking. It is primarily a photo sharing website where the members are allowed to create albums pertaining to a certain theme or pattern. Over a very short period of time, Pinterest has become one of the leading social media networks. Fairly recently, given that it launched in early 2010, the site has grown in leaps and bounds and is viewed as a strong competitor to the older social media networking websites. At present, the website attracts over 11 million visits each week, placing it among the top 10 social networks.
Over the past few years, businesses have been using social media websites for promoting and boosting their businesses. The same is the case with Pinterest. You might be wondering how a photo sharing website can help your business become a success.
This book is intended to be a guide for using Pinterest to strengthen your business and brand.
My Review:
I received so much information from this eBook that I decided to put my hubby's airbrush business on Pinterest! One more thing to add to my long To Do List but I think it needs to happen soon. I also got some tips for my personal Pinterest page~ http://pinterest.com/pamallen68/. I didn't know that Pinterest uses the #hashtag like Twitter so I need to start doing that for sure. Also learned how to arrange my Boards so my followers can get the best out of my pins. I highly recommend this eBook plus Kim Garst website is also filled with all kinds of Social Media information that I can stay there for hours reading- I love social media so I find all that info interesting and useful. I can't tell you all the wonderful info in this eBook so why don't you try to WIN one or go to The Quick and Easy Guide to Branding Your Business and Creating Massive Sales with Pinterest

Sometimes we have some funny stuff happen in the cafe that just makes me wonder about people. Last weekend we had this guy sit down and his back was pretty much towards the 80% of the cafe and guess what he had plumbers crack BIG TIME. EWWWW I know but I couldn't bring myself to tell him to cover his ASS. I could tell several customers were laughing and others were ready to gag so I went to the owners son and asked him to say something to the dude. He said no problem and went over to let plumber crack man know about the show he was giving to the other customers and they guy told him "so what"...huh? Really you don't care that you are offending people with your hairy butt? The owners son of course didn't like his comment or attitude so asked him if he could place a coat on the chair and the guy said fine but within 10 minutes put the coat back on. At this point I knew he was just doing it to get a reaction and wasn't respecting others. I went and put my coat on his chair, smiled and walked away. He was fine the rest of the time and then when he left he lit up a cigarette right outside the front door and irritated more customers. I was in the WTF mode with him at this time and walked outside and asked him to walk down a ways so the smoke didn't come into the cafe. He was irritated but at this point I was more concerned about the other customers and their experience at the cafe then his!
I try my hardest to be the best waitress and I've been told I am but I'm not tooting my own horn. Anyhoo, sometimes its just plain hard to please people. You know there is people out there that no matter what you do you just can't make happy. I try my best and that's all I can do. Then we have the best customers EVER and you wish they would come in everyday just to make this job so much better. Overall at the cafe I work our customers ROCK and they are the reason I do what I do with a smile on my face.
I received this cool product to review in the mail last week and I had to put my name on it FAST because I saw the vultures (kids and hubby) eyeing and wanting it! I use it everyday now- probably don't need to but hey its FUN!
I use it for my coffee cup, water bottle, and other drinks that I want the kids to LEAVE ALONE- I say "See it says MOM so it's not yours" I'm sure Slap Koozies didn't design this product so I could keep my family away from my beverages but that is how I'm using it! My kids LOVE to drink from my cups all the time, not sure why- maybe just to mess with me! Plus when I had a iced coffee drink the other day I put it on and my hands didn't get cold when I drank it.
I also see how this would be a great way to brand a product. If I had a company I would buy these for my employees with the company's logo on it! You can buy in bulk and customize the slap koozies!
The SlapKooler™ band is a banded 'slap koozie' beverage insulator that you can 'slap' on your can, bottle, arm, leg, friends, or people you just meet. Many people call it a 'slap koozie' or a 'slap wrap', but we call the SlapKoolerTM the next generation of awesome. Dual metal recoiling bands slap the neoprene koozie insulator around your can or bottle, just as it's appeal wraps itself around your heart!
Fun Ways To Use Your SlapKoolerTM:
Keeping your beverage cold and your hands warm.
Wristbands!
A way to reminisce about the 80's
Promoting your brand
Promoting your product or company
Dress up your beverage and start a unique conversation
Ankle warmers!
