I ordered two rugs under $60 and they're both gorgeous.
- Brown Leaves Memory Foam Rug - Beautiful design, Comfortable, with thick memory foam padding. Much better than standing on my hard tile floor when doing dishes.
- Baroque Kitchen Coffee Rug - A Nice array of neutral and dark colors, clear design, thick and soft to the touch.
I wanted a kitchen rug that would take up a good amount of the tile that coordinated well with my kitchen decor, but also would be able to camouflage stains and crumbs. Choosing a darker brown seemed perfect to me and I was right. Especially for right under the stove and where I prepare food. The smaller rug is for the sink area where crumbs and dirt fall less.
Being a bit of a coffee connoisseur, I love how the rugs look with the coffee cups showing the words Cappuccino, Espresso and Coffee. It's inviting to wake up to in the morning. They also have a whimsical touch with the way the steam comes out of the cups in scrolls and the other rug is full of scrolling that I love. It's hard to find unique rugs that don't look like a child drew a picture on them. The designs on these are very pretty.
Both rugs are spot clean only so I do have to be careful, but overall, I think these rugs are definitely worth the money. They have held up exceptionally well in the month I have used them. I just take them outside to flap the crumbs etc off and good as new. I haven't needed to use a damp cloth on it as of yet.
It's hard to find exactly what I want in my price range and these were on the ball. They are made extremely durable with little slipping compared to others I have had and I know they will last a long time as long as I treat them like they're works of art, which they are. Now I just need to find some cute matching coffee cup towels!
In addition to their site, Mohawk rugs can be found at Kohls, Target and other fine retailers.
Check out all the many rugs they have to offer, including area, kitchen, outdoor and more.
I encourage you to keep up with promotions through their Facebook and Twitter as well!
Mohawk rugs are fine quality and always made in the U.S.A.

Juicy Couture is known for their sweet, yummy and girly scents that I adore, but today I am here to introduce a new twist they came up with. A scent that is reminiscent of the hippy days with strong notes of earthy tones and musks. I was not even aware that when I read the description this is what I would be getting. I have smelled earthy and sweet hippy scents before, but this is definitely not sweet. I do prefer the tried and true sweeter scents that Juicy is known for, but this scent is definitely something that will appeal to the many that do not care for those.
I actually like to sniff it not on myself, but on things around my place. I found that it's nice to walk into my closet and get a whiff of there or on my bed, but it is not something that I would wear on myself. I would actually funnily enough, love to smell it on a man though! I think this scent is very versatile and would work for a man or woman. I do love that almost grassy after smell that if I were walking outside it would be pleasant to come across. I think it's a scent you have to be in the mood for. As the name suggests, it is filled with a lot of the hippy scents some of you know and love.
It's definitely not night time or date wear, in my opinion. It is a light and airy day wear that is perfect for the beach or luncheon with friends. It is very fresh and inviting though.
This is how the company describes the scent.
'Meyer lemon, wild hyacinth, sweet apple and black currant buds absolute in a top. A heart blooms with floral kisses of Sambac jasmine absolute, star magnolia, Malibu poppy, honeysuckle and linden blossom, while a base features iris root extract, patchouli blossom and sensual musk which rounds up the composition as a non-chalant embrace.'
Honestly, I don't detect any of the sweet top notes once it is on my skin. At first spray, there are hints, but those fade fast. Everyone's skin chemistry is different, but musky scents tend to be just that on any skin type. So what you are getting is a very earthy, floral and musky scent in the end.
Overall, this fragrance will definitely be useful and I may end up giving it to someone who prefers more musk or just keep spraying it all over everything but myself. I will have to switch out the bottle though, because that is going nowhere, but in my collection. I will say that i'm proud of this line for stepping out of the boundaries and trying something brave and new. That I love. As for what holds the perfume, the bottle alone is a work of art. I have always had a thing for glass, even if it's just a perfume bottle. Though I don't see it that way. The small but powerful and colorful additions are what make this bottle special. I wish Juicy Couture would add that kind flair to all their editions!
And now for the giveaway! One lucky winner will receive both the 3.4 ounce (100 ml) bottle of Peace, Love & Juicy Couture pictured below + bonus travel spray you see pictured above. Over an $89 retail value!
US Only
Good Luck!

My kids love the newest show on Nick Jr called Tickety Toc. The show is so well watched that it already has a DVD out called Chime Time Adventures.
Tickety Toc Chime Time Adventures DVD is packed full of fun and excitement which will keep your kids entertained for 6 full episodes! The episodes include magic tricks, circus acts, messy photo day and more.
Tickey Toc is a fun show which 2 kids learn life long lessons and have fun doing so. Its a great way to teach your child problem solving skills, communication and more.
Tickety Toc is on Nick Jr 7 days a week, the show is basically about problem solving as the two characters go through the town of tickety helping friends and learning life long lessons.

Tickety Toc Puzzle
My kids love the newest show on Nick Jr called Tickety Toc. My kids also really like puzzles so it was great to be able to tie the two together. The puzzle is wood pieces making it last longer and it is 25 pieces which is great for any beginner builder.
I find puzzles are a great way to help with hand eye coordination, imagination and more. Puzzles help the mind stay smart because you have to be good at problem solving for most puzzles so it is great to be able to let my kids play with a toy that brings out the smart.

Sound Pockets for iPhone Review

If there is one thing that gets me frustrated when we are out, is when the kids are yelling that they can't hear the game they are playing on my phone because of all the talking. Then comes the endless search in the car for the earbuds, which inevitably are never there. Sometimes this sends Riley into a meltdown. He NEEDS his earbuds when he needs them.
Recently, I was offered the chance to try out Sound Pockets. Sound Pockets are awesome iPhone cases that have a compartment in the back that hold...you guessed it, earbuds! The earbuds are already included with the case, and I love that they are always at hand.
They can be purchased for about $34.95 and are available in a variety of colors.

When you purchase an Apple iPhone 5 you receive a handset and pair of
companion headphones. These two devices are made work together, yet
present the challenge of how to keep them together. Sound Pockets has
conquered this challenge with a sleek, ergonomic, 2-in-1 combo,
protective Freedom Case that organizes a companion set of headphones and
stores them alongside Apple's iPhone 5. You won't lose your earbuds and
you'll stop the nasty tangles and knots.

ClickN Kids Tablet Review

If your kids are like mine, they are always asking to use your tablet. I have never had a problem with that, until one day, Xander was playing a game I had downloaded that wasn't really kid friendly. I knew in that moment that I wanted to give him a tablet of his own, with only kids apps.
ClickN Kids Tablet comes with 8GB internal storage, a front facing camera, built in stereo speakers, dual core processor, battery life up to 5 hours, wi-fi, and video and music players.
So what's included in the box?
- 7” Multi Touch Kids Tablet
- Matching Gel Case
- Instruction Manual
- Quick Start Guide
- AC/Wall Charger
- USB Cable
- Looney Tunes Phonics Sticker

One thing I really like about this tablet for kids, is that it also has all the features of an adult app, so if I need to use it for something, I just "unlock" the adult section by using the 4 digit pin I assigned when I set it up, then I have access to Google, Facebook, You Tube, just like my own tablet.

When Xander an Riley first got the tablet, they were so excited! They loved almost all of the 30+ apps that came pre-installed. They have been good about taking turns playing it, and I am loving the Looney Tunes Phonics!

You can purchase a ClickN Kids Tablet at Walmart.com for about $99 (you can choose your color choice too!)
Be sure to follow ClickN Kids Tablet on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest to keep up with the latest news.

Angry Birds Telepods Playset from Hasbro

So, just about ever boy in America knows who Angry Birds are. My boys are no different. From the moment they came across the app, they wanted in on the fun.
We have downloaded every app available for Angry Birds, and they always want more. So they were really excited when Angry Birds Star Wars released an update a few weeks ago. What's even more fun, is that now with the Angry Birds Telepods, they can use real-life toys in the game.
How it works, is you place the toy over the front facing camera, and your camera "reads" the code on the toy to know which one they are using. The character on the screen will then become the character on the camera.

With the set is also all the cute toys shown above. My boys had a blast playing real life Angry Birds Star Wars!
he Angry Birds Star Wars app comes to life. This line of Hasbro toys
captures all the launching and destroying fun of the app in physical
form and features your favorite Star Wars characters re-imagined as
high-flying Angry Birds and villainous pigs. You can stack, launch and
destroy the Death Star with the blocks, figures and launcher in the
Death Star Trench Run set. Put your Luke Skywalker Bird figure in the
X-Wing Starfighter launcher and pull it back on the ramp to launch it at
the cannon turret on the blocks. Can you topple your exclusive Tie
Fighter Pilot Pig figure? Destroy the Empire, then set the blocks up and
destroy it again. Star Wars products are produced by Hasbro under
license from Lucas film Ltd. Hasbro and all related terms are trademarks

CampusBookRentals.com and RentBack

Campus Book Rentals has over 1 MILLION happy customers. Why? Because they rent College text books.
Way back in the fall of 2002 I entered College for musical theater. I had no idea at the time that I would be required to take Biology, Creative Writing, and some math class that I still can't even pronounce.
I know from going to College that text books are EXPENSIVE! I am talking $150 and UP for one book!
I really wish this company had existed back then, one of the major reasons why I stopped going to College was that I couldn't afford it, if a company like this had been around, it sure would have made it easier.
CampusBookRentals.com does just that! You can go onto their site, and RENT a book! They offer FREE shipping both ways, 30 day RISK-FREE returns, Live customer support, The LARGEST selection in the NATION, they offer the most flexible rental periods and they have been trusted since 2007.
The books you rent from Campus Book Rentals are 40-90% off bookstore prices AND it's ok to highlight in them (I know how important that is from experience).
Another great thing about Campus Book Rentals is that they have a new program called Rent Back where you can rent your text book to another student! You can rent it out as many times as you want, and keep getting paid.
Also, they donate to a great cause for kids called OperationSmile.org every time a book is rented. Operation Smile helps children who are born with cleft palate get cosmetic surgery.
Recently Campus Book Rentals has started a program called "Rentback" where students can actually rent their own textbooks to other students!

HP Envy Wireless Printer with Savings Center App.
I remember back in 2002, my mom came home from work and she was SO excited. Her job had given her an HP printer to use at home. She went on and on about how HP was the best, and it was.
She used that HP printer up until about 2010. It never had anything go wrong with it, ever. Since then, I have decided that HP is the printer for me.
Recently, I was offered the chance to review an HP Envy 120 Wireless Color Photo Printer with Scanner and Copier, and use some of the awesome features like the Savings Center App. The Savings Center App, is an app that runs on the printer directly (like how an app runs on your phone) there is an icon for "Savings Center" and you can manage it right from the printer, or online.
How it works is, the app sends coupons to your printer once a week, typically on Sundays, and your printer prints them out for you automatically! You can also choose to print out any coupons you like one at a time, or you can set it to print out your favorite coupons weekly.

Some of the other features that I love, are that you are able to download the HP ePrint App and you can print from your phone anywhere and it will send it to your home printer. I love sending notes to my kids when I am out and they are home with Dad.
This is a picture I sent to the boys yesterday while I was at the store (I used my phones memo feature to draw it).

The other thing I really like about the HP Envy printer, is that it has so many options for scanning. I can scan to my computer, my memory card, or my USB drive, which means my pictures never have to come to my computer at all. I can scan all my old photos, straight to the USB card.

Look what they printed, without my help, straight from the printer! No going online on the computer, just go to the printer, find what you want, and print!

All in all, I am using the Savings Center App all the time, I am so bad when it comes to printing coupons, I am always getting to them late, and they are gone. Now, I can guarantee that I will have my coupons even if I don't need to use it for a few weeks.

Good Cook and Sweet Creations Haunted House Kit and Other Halloween Goodies Review and Giveaway
When I chose to home school my 2 boys, I knew that I would need tons of crafty things to keep them creative. I am so excited that Good Cook has not only challenged MY creativity, but theirs as well.

Recently, I received this Good Cook Haunted House Cookie Cutter Set and was asked to create my own haunted house.
I'll be honest. When I saw I was getting the kit, I thought it would be like the one in the store that comes all premade, for those of us who are not professional bakers.
I was wrong. This kit has cookie cutters, with stamps on the back to make the design. Then you can use the additional tools for more stamping. Once the cookies are done baking, you put the whole thing together with icing, and decorate.
My attempt was a fail. It had nothing to do with the Good Cook Haunted House Cookie Cutter Set, it was 100% me. I didn't research enough to figure out that when putting together a house, you should use what's called Royal Icing.
Here is the recipe.

This smooth, hard-drying icing is perfect for
making decorations that last. It is also useful as a "cement" to fasten
decorations together. Royal icing is edible, but not recommended for
icing cakes.
Ingredients:
- Easy-Add Meringue Powder Add to shopping list Meringue Powder
- 4 cups (about 1 lb.) confectioners' sugar
- 6 tablespoons warm water
Makes:
About 3 cups of icing.
I am 100% confident that if I had used this recipe, my house would have been a lot better. Not perfect, cause, well, I am not THAT good. But, it would have been better.
Here is my house.

Now, I do love that it's definitely scary looking, we used a cookie spray paint on the roof to make it black, and i wanted to have eyes all over, which I was working on when the whole thing fell over.
The Good Cook Haunted House Kit can be purchased on the GoodCook.com website for about $20. Stay tuned next Halloween as I attempt it again!
Sweet Creations by Good Cook also sent me this adorable Halloween Cupcake Stand.

The boys and I made Pumpkin Cupcakes from a boxed mix, and used orange colored frosting. We then topped with cute little pumpkins. The whole thing is so festive.
The cupcake stand it so easy to set up, and at $12.99 it can be folded back down and reused year after year.

Whole Paws Pet Food by Whole 365 Review and $50 Gift Card Giveaway!

Since I was a child, I have always had a pet. I don't feel like my life is complete by any means without a dog and at least one cat running around. Recently, we adopted a puppy, and we have 4 adorable kitties.
I haven't always made the right decisions in my pets' lives. For example, years ago, when my husband and I were not doing very well financially, we fed our dog food from the dollar store. It was the best we could do, besides give him up, and he had been ours for 10 years, so we didn't want to have to do that.
A few months later, Gizmo died. The vet told me it was kidney stones, more than likely due to cheap food.
After that moment of losing him, I swore that if I had a pet, I would take care of it the right way, and if I feel like I can't, I will get help.
Whole Paws is a great way to feed your pet. It's premium pet food, found at Whole Foods Market.
We recently had the opportunity to try some of the canned varieties on our pets, and I can tell you, they love it. I took a photo of what's inside the can of dog food, because to me, it looks good enough for people!

Can you see the whole peas and diced carrots? There are also diced potatoes and meat, all in a thick gravy..it looks delicious!

Bamoo Stylus Duo and Solo Review

I use my iPad a lot when I am home schooling. The boys also have to do a certain amount of work on the tablets, and their fingers are always not hitting the right spots. So when I started looking into getting a stylus (or 2...) I knew I wanted to get best I could find.
The Bamboo Stylus Solo is made of durable, quality materials and crafted with care.
The rubber nib is protected by a metal cap and can be easily exchanged
with affordable replacement nibs. I also liked that is was 8.4mm in circumference, that means my boys hands will be able to grip it really well!

The boys love all the different colors!
With the Bamboo Stylus Duo you can enjoy the best of both worlds with the combined power of a digital
stylus and a traditional ball point pen in one stylish device.
This two in one pen has excellent performance both on screen and on paper – thanks to a slim, responsive rubber nib and a ball point with a high-quality ink refill.
This two in one pen has excellent performance both on screen and on paper – thanks to a slim, responsive rubber nib and a ball point with a high-quality ink refill.

Just like the solo, the duo also comes in all these awesome colors!
My boys really love their Bamboo Stylus Duo and Solo, and at just $19.99 and $29.99 respectively, they are a great price for a great tool.
