We All Love Cupcakes!

I have found the perfect gift to give to my mother for Mother’s Day I usually just send her a nice vase of springtime flowers that she loves so much, but upon surfing the Web, I came across a site that has a really great product called Cup a Cake Cupcake Holders. These holders have in each container these plastic “prongs” that keep the cupcake from moving around thus keeping all of that delicious frosting from getting messed up, which never seems to fail from happening.

My mother is a very busy women that attends all kinds of Women’s Club activities that always need a dessert or side dish to be brought along, and mother has a great recipe for cup cakes that she uses a lot so I think that she will really enjoy this new product idea and will get much use out of it.  This cool website is definitely going to be bookmarked for future use, they have some very unusual and unique gifts that I would like to keep in mind for the Christmas holidays that will be here before you know it.

Lunch at Red Lobster!

Hubby has been promised that we would go out to lunch at Red Lobster for a weeks now and something seems to come up every day that it doesn’t work out.

My sister sent us gift certificates for Red Lobster as a Christmas gift, I can’t believe that I have been holding on to them for this long, waiting for a chance to use them.  We wanted to do lunch so that it would be just the two of us.  We take the kids everywhere all the time, so if we can steal away for a lunch, just us two, we take it and run with it.

Today was the day, it just worked out, it wasn’t planned.  The computer was acting funny so neither of us could go online, the weather was cooperating nicely, so we went and got back in time for the youngest to get home from school by the bus.

We both ordered nice entrees and enjoyed an appetizer of stuffed mushrooms, yummy.  We both really enjoy their muffins, so they came home with us, along with a few other left overs, but not that much was left on our plates to bring home.  We did order a take out order of the fondue bread with lobster sauce so that the whole family can enjoy it later.

I love Red Lobster, thanks Sis!

Stem Cell Research

I have read quite a bit as of late about how much we all have to gain through today’s stem cell research. And I just finished reading an article about how how a company by the name of C’elle has made it possible to collect these vital stem cells from a woman’s monthly menstrual fluid.

C’elle has made it possible to take control of a woman’s future, right in the privacy of her home, in a revolutionary technique that makes the harvesting from your menstrual blood, safe and easy, what a wonderful opportunity they are providing us.

Imagine knowing in advance what you are capable of passing down to future generations, just by using this invasive collection process. The cells are processed and preserved at a very low temperature, for possible cellular therapies that might be used in the future. These are self-renewing cells, that who knows, one day might be used for sports medicine.

C’elle is offering for a limited time a promotion called “Caring is Sharing”, you may purchase this kit for yourself and give a friend or a relative one for free. You can go online to Celle.com and put in the promo code of 241 to take advantage of this one time only special. This is something that takes very little time to do, so it is great for us over worked and over scheduled women of today’s world.

I went on line and read some of their C’elle Client Testimonial pages and it sounds like a very exciting proposal, one that is very controversial, to say the least, but very interesting and important.

The Prom

The charlotte dj that has been hired for this year’s high school senior prom has come highly recommended by several people that have used them before. Having the right dj can make or break a party and the prom is a huge ordeal. Hundreds of kids are looking forward to their prom, spending an outrageous amount on the whole event, so the dj just has to be great.

I did not graduate from high school, so I didn’t get to go to my prom. I didn’t think it was a big deal back then, but now I really regret not sticking it out longer at school (although I did go back and get my GED) and graduating with my classmates and going to the prom. That is why I am so involved with making each year’s prom a great one for the kids at the local high school. It will be a couple more years before my kids will be going to the prom. I can only pray that they will graduate and have the opportunity to do all the cool things that seniors get to do, including the prom!

The Junior Prom This Year

It will be nice to see my daughter and her current boyfriend all dressed up for the Junior Prom, at the end of the year. We have already been looking at dresses, shoes, handbags and all of the other accessories that it takes to dress up all formal like. He has been looking at various tuxedo vests to match the color of the dress, when my daughter finally makes a decision on her dress, which better be soon. He has a lot to do himself for this big event.

This will be fun. I never got to go to any of the formal dances back in my high school years, so this is all so new and exciting for me. Never thought that I would be one of those mothers that gets all crazy during these memory making moments. And to think this is only the Junior Prom. I can’t imagine what all is involved with next year’s Senior Prom although I’m sure there will be a limo some how involved.

My Daughter And My Car!

My Daughter is recovering from 2 surgery’s she had in the past month, and struggling to go to be able to get up and go to work. I knew she wasn’t going to have any money there for a while after her last paycheck, and she didn’t want to dip into savings at all until she had turned 18. So there for a few weeks she had been penniless, so I had given her allowance’s for doing some chores around the house so she’d be able to get some things she needed to go back to work, for example; black pants and black shoes for work, shower accessories, and other little things she needs or wanted to get.

Well for the past week she has been wanting to see her boyfriend and constantly wanting to borrow my car to get him for the day so they can spend some time together. It was fine with me for a few days but it started to get the point where it was everyday, and it wasn’t until a few days ago she had stopped borrowing my car all of a sudden. She had just given me a few dollars today and said it was for the gas she burned in my car. Which I now think of her as an adult now for meeting her responsibilities in paying back the money she had owed me. I’m glad she works for what she wants, instead of her thinking she can live for free. I’m very proud of her now, she is going back to work tomorrow and now stable on her feet again, ready for her normal everyday life again.

Crappy Service

Today I had gone to the grocery store and had purchased a few items. I had a few problems trying to find a few items and had asked for help, but didn’t seem to get any service at all with finding these certain items. So I had came home in a bad mood, and had wrote a letter to the store’s office complaining about their crappy services, and had received a phone call not too long afterwards apologizing and offering me coupons to save big in their store. I took the coupon offer and plan on only shopping there one more time just so I could use the coupons. I don’t deal with crappy service, its unacceptable to me.

Something Cool

Something is getting popular now a days with all kinds of folks are having business cards printed up so that you can distribute them to who ever you choose to give them to. And with an offer such as “Free Business Cards” you can bet that my oldest daughter is ready to order.

She found a website called unlimitedbusinesscards.com and they advertise unlimited supply of free business cards AND free shipping.  You have to register to get access to the site which takes a few minutes but so many sites require this that you can practically do it in your sleep!

It seems that they can afford to offer these free because advertisers pay them to have their ads on the back of the free business cards, what a cool idea. They are what I call “Killing 2 birds with one stone”. It is an interesting proposition that they offer: After you fill out the form, your business card will become a product that our advertisers can choose to advertise on. Once we get 3 advertisers to advertise on your business card we will email you a link that you can use to upload your artwork or design your business card online choosing from over 13,000 templates. And they want you to agree to distribute all of your cards in a years time – interesting.

I actually registered and put in an order for some cards for Hubby to use and we will see how it goes from there, after we check them out I will allow our daughter to order some, free is a good amount to pay – I’m sure you would agree.

Hubby Cleans Up Real Nice!

Even though Hubby is a “Blue collar worker” and his wardrobe consists mainly of tee shirts and jeans with a few Khakis and sweatshirts thrown in, he does have a few nice clothes but I have decided that it is now time for it to have an much needed upgrade, cause Hubby does clean up real nice!

I want to purchase by going online from a website – upscalemenswear.com that has gotten my attention, it’s by a company by the name of Upscale Menswear that is located in  Atlanta, Georgia, but thankfully they have made it possible to buy from them the most unique, colors and styles from brand names like Steve Harvey, Romano Fiesso and Robert Wayne, some wonderful hi-fashion suits and designer shoes  like the ones that are always seen and worn in Hollywood and New york, but are offered at realistic prices, without having to take the long drive by use of the good old Internet! I think that I will enjoy this.

Awesome gift giving idea – Hot Air Balloon Rides

I have always had an interest in Hot Air Balloons, I have several hot air balloon figures and paintings around the house. Hubby and I just missed an opportunity to purchase a genuine one for a very low price years ago and have kicked ourselves in the rear several times since than. Hot Air Balloon Rides are not as rare as they were back then either, now a days there seem to be Hot Air Balloon festival and events in almost every state somewhere.

During the summer and autumn months is when you get expect to see the majority of balloons in the air and I love it when at certain  times we can even see one or two when we are out and enjoying the backyard.

There is a website that my parents sent me called www.xperiencedays.com and they have listings and listings of adventures for sale. Interesting and fun ideas for you to experience ranging from cruises, horseback riding, air combat, drag racing, hang gliding and tons more of the coolest ways to have fun or relax. Every package is designed for the first timer which is a major plus! My parents are thinking of giving us a gift certificate that can be used to attend my dream of taking a ride in a hot air balloon at a place that is locating very near to were they have moved to in Florida, since retirement. I’ve got to tell mom that this is a great idea and I love the website that she sent me and will share it with many others I’m sure.

I am definitely going to bookmark this site for further investigation and use.
