Learning Spanish With Pimsleur!!
Since I live in Southern California, learning Spanish isn’t just a desire, it’s a necessity!! I was so excited when my Pimsleur Spanish Level 1 CD’s arrived! I couldn’t wait to get started. Since I am in the car for at least 45 minutes everyday, Pimsleur is PERFECT!! (Don’t forget to start at Rakuten for extra savings!) I have to admit I’ve tried several different methods to learn Spanish. One of the methods I tried, required me to sit in front of a computer. I don’t know about you, but 30 minutes uninterrupted in front of a computer NEVER happens! I’ve tried, but for me, nothing has worked!! Pimsleur is a perfect solution!! I am in the car at least 45 minutes everyday, each Pimsleur lesson is 30 minutes long. The only requirement? You have to say the lessons out loud. Well, I can do that!! First, shipping? Super fast! Packaging. Well, y’all know me, I’m a packing nut!! I will buy a product just for the packaging! I’m a sucker like that! My Pimsleur Spanish CD’s arrived very well packaged. A BEAUTIFUL black box inside with silver printing. Very nice!! You could easily give this as a gift without any extra wrapping!!…

Yosemite Bound!!!
I’m starting to get antsy, our yearly camping adventure in Yosemite National Park, is getting ever closer. So, I was starting my list of must have essentials, I thought I would share some with you. I’ve learned a lot from the last two camping trips. First, I learned my family likes to hike. A LOT. We hike everywhere, all day, every day. For. A. Week. Second, I learned you can NOT hike in jeans. Yes, the first year I did TRY! I was miserable. I’ve learned the MOST important thing in hiking is that, you NEED comfortable hiking BOOTS. Two years in a row I have lost BOTH of my big toe nails. BTW it takes a FULL year for your toenail to grow back. That’s two years with no pedicures!! It’s not pretty!! Well-fitting Hiking boots that have ankle support are a MUST!! Equally, important, break them IN before you go camping!! Next, don’t be stupid, get an air mattress, that ground is ROCK hard!! Next necessity, a sleeping bag. The sleeping bag that your kids used when they were in Girl Scouts doesn’t count!! BUY a new one!! One that will combat the cold!! 20° is COLD. It’s REALLY,…

Dead Sea Mud Shampoo!
I have to admit, I have never used a brown shampoo before. I have never used a MUD shampoo either!! I love my Dead Sea Mud mask and body scrub, but a mud shampoo was a new one for me! Dead Sea Mud has been used for centuries for it’s healing properties! People travel from all over the world to experience its effects at the Dead Sea. Someday, I want to experience it in person too. First, the scent. I can’t quite put my finger on the perfume that it reminds me of, but it smells so good!! I want it bottled to wear everyday! Dead Sea Mud Shampoo is not just a pretty scent, but the shampoo is fabulous! The shampoo doesn’t feel grainy or like mud, it is however brown until you start massaging it into your hair and scalp then turns white. I definitely get plenty of rich soft suds. My hair has TONS of BODY and SHINE since I’ve started using Dead Sea Mud Shampoo. I have very thin, lifeless, color treated hair. Dead Sea Mud Shampoo doesn’t stain my blonde highlights. It doesn’t change the color of my hair in the least. My hair is soft!…

Chartreuse Elephant Accent Pillow Review!
For the most part, I love my little house. It’s the first house I ever owned. It’s the house my kids grew up in. Besides, I have wayyyyyy too much stuff to even contemplate moving. There aren’t enough moving vans in Vista to move all this junk stuff!! Oh, I still drool over the new homes. I dream of a huge bathroom with a huge tub. I dream of a bright colorful livingroom, especially in the summer!! I want a new off white couch, I want to paint the walls WHITE, I want the whole livingroom to be bright, sunny and full of color. Ahhhhh, but all of that costs bucks! The way I shop, BIG bucks! Besides, really, how long before I want a room that has rich warm colors again?! Here is my compromise! Fun accent pillows. BRIGHT and fun accent pillows. Like this adorable 17″ x 17″ chartreuse green and white elephant pillows. How FUN are these?!?! Not only fun, but also affordable! This pillow has added the much needed color in my livingroom. My new chartreuse green elephant pillow is 100% cotton and is filled with polyfill fiber. Another bonus? They are MADE in the USA,…
