Heart Of Haiti-Who's Your Favorite Woman?

I was asked to write about a woman that has helped me in my life. I would like to tell you about one very special one right now~ She worked hard all her life for everything that she had.As she came from a poor family and didn't want her kids to go through what she did. She was the one that when you went to her house she had homemade cookies and never was too busy to listen to your problems. She would make a pot of chicken noodle soup if you were sick and deliver it too! When she was diagnosed with lung cancer~she stayed optimistic and did everything that the doctors wanted her to do. I can still remember the first time holding her hand as she had chemo.We were scared together but of course neither one of us would admit that. She stayed strong though and made sure that we knew that she was going to fight this too.And she did with all that she had right to the end.. I was lucky enough to call this woman Mom.She lost her battle with cancer on April 2nd,2010. I want to thank her as

 Whether it's for breakfast, lunch or dinner, there's no denying it~ America is a sandwich-loving nation! According to the new " Hellmann's State of the Sandwich" survey , a majority of American sandwich eaters (84%) believe that how a sandwich is made is just as important as the ingredients used to make it. Something else many of America's sandwich fans agree on: If there's a must-have sandwich ingredient, it's Hellmann's mayonnaise!    To help celebrate America's passionate preferences for building the perfect sandwich, Hellmann's and Best Foods are partnering with Chef Bobby Flay to show families how to make real, simple, delicious sandwiches, and to uncover unique and personal sandwich-making techniques.    They want to know how you slice it, spread it, stack it or serve it ...

Pump Gloves Review!

The days of simply driving into full service gas stations and saying, “Fill’er up!” are, for the most part, a thing of the past. Pump Gloves restore a bit of luxury that's been lost by today's multitasking ladies. I was recently sent Pump Gloves to review and let me tell you these gloves are the Bomb! They are so cute and look great. I don't know about you~But I despise getting all the germs on things that we touch every day.

Magdalena Through Her Eyes - DVD Review & Giveaway 5/11

Is God’s transforming power still available today? In Magdalena Through Her Eyes , Mary Magdalene recounts her own healing from demon possession and narrates the stories of other women who have been powerfully released from shame and fear. Mary traces the lives of a woman caught in the sinful act of adultery, a social outcast rejected because of her loose lifestyle, a recluse shunned in society for 12 years because of a despicable illness, and a widow mourning the loss of her only son, as they experience acceptance, healing, and forgiveness when coming into contact with Jesus. Spending three years following the Teacher and witnessing His miraculous works and His surprising compassion, Mary learns a whole new way of looking at life and people. This is a great DVD as it made you look at life a bit different. As it is really a heart touching story.It would be great to watch with your girlfriends or great for ministry viewings at your church or in a Bible study. The full-length

Fresh Prince of Bel Air-The Complete 6th Season Review

I was so excited to receive the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air DVD's to review. As no matter who you are you have to remember Will Smith in this show. I loved this show~and still like to watch the reruns as there are shown here late at nite. I still laugh when Will and Carlton get into their little disagreements.As it seems that no matter how much Carlton tries~he never is as cool as Will. This is a great set to watch over and over again~as it is good humor.Something that the whole family can enjoy! It’s a rap: the final season! The Fresh Prince’s reign is over. Will Smith and the rest of the hilarious cast take their final bows with all 24 Season 6 Episodes on 3 Discs. A lot’s happened since Will’s life got flipped, turned upside down and he showed up at the Banks’s Bel-Air doorstep. And the final season keeps the fun rollin’ to the very end with hip comedy style, phat one-liners, a not-to-be-missed blooper episode, and guest stars that include William Shatner, B.B. King, Dick C
