Lycopene - Some really good stuff!

Lycopene. I haven't heard much about it so I had to do some research.

I found out that Lycopene has been shown to support:
  • maintaining good skin and hair health
  • eyesight
  • heart health
  • prostate health
WOW-WEE!! That sounds like something I really needed to add to my supplements.

The NutriONN 10mg Lycopene does not contain any:
  • preservatives
  • gluten
  • sugar
  • wheat
  • fish
  • starch
  • lactose
  • artificial colors
  • sweetener or flavors
I knew this would be the supplement to use!!

Check it out on Amazon.

Journey to Heaven is an Uplifting Read

I just finished reading "Journey to Heaven". I have always been interested in different theories that people have about what becomes of us after death. Obviously, none of us can really know what happens to us after we die.

I really like the way the overall journey unfolds. It is uplifting and enlightening. The book is very interesting and flows well. Its really easy to get caught up and lose track of time. Before I knew it, I'd finished the entire book!

Since our 16 year old past almost a year ago, I am always looking for signs from him. I love to think that he continues to be with us. That is "work" here was done. It was time for him to move on and "learn" new things.

The back of the book includes several exercises. They are really great for grounding.

Beer pong - THE great new FAMILY time game!

We have been having a great time playing beer pong with our kiddos.

Yeah, you heard it right. Don't get your panties in a wad. We have obviously changed the rules. They tend to get drunk way to quick!

We only set up one end of the playing area. We each take a turn with 4 balls. We gave each row a point value. The front cup is worth 4, behind it is 3, behind that is 2 and the last row is 1 point.

They really love playing it!

Its cool because they are practicing math the entire time! (insert evil laughter) They are adding our points and subtracting how many more they need to get. Its awesome!

It has been a great family game. When its hot and muggy outside,ugh, I really don't want to do much other than be in the air conditioner!

This kit is great because it came with two triangle grippers. They are like the grippers you get for throw rugs. Once you put your cups on the gripper mat they stay put really well. It comes with two sets of cups and four balls. They also included a pen and pad to tally your scores. It is a great little set, but honestly, I think its a bit over priced.

Wanna Drop a Decade from your face? - Vitamin C Serum is the answer!

I am only just recently learning about Vitamin C serum. Dr. Oz even boasts that it will, "drop a decade from your face"! Say WHAT?!

Well, if Dr. Oz is into it then, I know I need to check it out!

I have been using it for a few weeks. I have the dreaded "11" on my forehead. I thought there was improvement. It seems to have faded a bit. I asked my darling husband if he had noticed any improvement. He said, "no, not really".  Now, I would have thought that he would have the common since to say yes regardless. Apparently we are a bit TOO honest.

After I said,"Really, I thoug
ht it was a bit better", he changed his tune. I guess he had time to reevaluate what his answer should have been all along!

My face definitely FEELS softer!

I like that it can be applied twice a day and under moisturizer.

Its a little thick but not like a lotion. It has a pleasant smell and dries quickly.

Check it out on Amazon.

Canopy wobbly? Check out these leg supports!

Putting up a canopy can be a real pain! They can be so unsteady.

This set of 4 weight bags are great for instant leg supports.

Each on has two zippered cylinder bags.  The zippers are really heavy duty! The material is a really thick canvas. This stuff is high quality and durable. I can see these lasting a long time.

These bags can hold up to 40lbs of sand, rock or dirt!  Imagine, one of those on each leg? Talk about support!

I saw on their website that you could also use them along the top of a canopy for added weight. That would be great at the beach!

Check it out on Amazon.

I feel like a REAL Artist with this AWESOME Set of Brushes!


I really like this set of brushes.

You get 16 assorted long handled brushes for acrylic and oil painting. Eight of them are round head brushes and the other eight are flat head brushes.

I'm a dork, I realize that, but I liked that the brushes were all numbered. I feel like an actual artist working with them and having such a variety. Now when I do a paint along video tutorial on YouTube and they say use a #5 flat brush, I'll have one!

This set also has a really nice zippered nylon case that holds each brush.

They are, I'm sure, a starter set. I say this because as I was painting bristles would come off here and there. I'm certainly no expert, but my guess says that a super expensive set probably wouldn't do that.

For the price, with the amount of brushes you get, this is a great deal!

Gorgeous Marble Mortar & Pestle


I have always wanted a Mortar and Pestle.

My mom had one when I was little. I remember her grinding herbs and spices that we had grown in the garden.

This is a beautiful polished real marble mortar and pestle. I love the look of it on my black counter.

It is really heavy about 4lbs total and quite large.

The inside of the bowl is rough to assist in the grinding.

The bowl fits perfectly in your hand as you work.
