I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Cascade Dishwasher Detergent. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating. For my birthday this year I decided to break down and spend the money on something I had been wanting for years.....a dishwasher. Now that my dishwasher is in my house its time to focus on the best dish washing soap that will not only get my dishes sparkly clean but also sanitize and keep my machine running efficiently. As soon as we got the dishwasher home and all set up I opened the door of the dishwasher and seen that the soap dispenser already had a brand name of soap written on it. That name is Cascade. I knew that I wanted a dish washing soap that would get everything sparkly clean without me having to pre-wash everything before putting it into the dish washer. I decided that since I knew and trusted the Cascade name I would give their Cascade Platinum a … [Read more...]

Mother India Life Through the Eyes of the Orphan Review!
Mother India Life Through the Eyes of the Orphan I find other cultures fascinating. I love learning about the ways of life in other countries. Recently I was able to review a copy of Mother India. Mother India is an interesting movie that will really give you insight into the lives of orphans in India. I was amazed at just how many there were! These children are so young and they learn to live alone and take care of themselves. In this movie you will be taken on an adventure of the lives of these children. I can say that this movie will also make you feel very grateful for the things that you have. You will meet two boys who were around ages 4-5. Their parents asked them to go out and beg for money. The children were found by another orphan boy who took them to a home that would feed them. They then sent word to the parents of the boys to let them know where their children were...the parents never came and got them. There are so many children … [Read more...]

Godefroy Heated Eyelash Curler Review!
Godefroy Heated Eyelash Curler Review! My thoughts on the Godefroy heated eyelash curler - when I received this product to review I was quite excited yet nervous at the same time to try it out! The Godefroy heated eyelash curler is shorter than a pencil so it actually would fit easily into a purse if you wanted to carry it around and it also has a lid to keep it protected. The bottom part of the curler comes off and that is where you put in one AAA battery and put the case back over it. Make sure that the lid on the top is off before you turn it on. The great thing is that there is a little light that turns green when it is on so you know it is working. I at first was a little apprehensive of putting heat to my eyelashes and when reading the directions, you are to apply pressure onto the eyelid when smoothing the eyelash with the curler. I figured it would either burn my eyelashes off or work and lo and behold it worked! It not only worked but it … [Read more...]
