I don’t miss working in accounting right now, because it is “busy season” where you sweat over taxes. It can be the same feeling when you do your own taxes at home. Are all your deductions correct? Will you get the maximum refund you deserve? Did you make errors that will cost you money, or [...]

Oransi Robby Wash Laundry Ball
This intrigues me–Oransi has a laundry ball called the Robby Wash. It comes loaded with enough ultra concentrated laundry solution for 120 loads of wash. It works in hot or cold water and in standard or front-loading machines. Just make sure to not put it in the dryer when you switch the clothes over. [...]

Reviews of Blu-Ray Movie “To Kill a Mockingbird”
Reading the Harper Lee novel “To Kill a Mockingbird” was a rite of passage for all sophomores at my high school. My nephews go to the same school and the younger one read it last year. Living in the south, but in the post-civil rights era, it was a window into the world our parents [...]

The SodaStream seemed to be the hot appliance gift this last Christmas. I saw it for sale everywhere. I really wanted one, so I may have to buy one for myself family. A buddy of mine has had a SodaStream for a few years now and loves it. What she likes about it is the savings [...]

Hidden Valley Ranch Reviews
My husband is a big fan of Ranch dressing. Keeping some in the refrigerator, along with fresh salad greens, is one of the little things I like to do for him. He was raised on Hidden Valley Ranch, the top name in Ranch dressing. And Ranch dressing isn’t just for salads. I use it sometimes on [...]

Reviews of Greased Lightning Multi-Purpose Cleaner
Greased Lightning is a multi-purpose cleaner and degreaser. Multi-purpose means you can use it in the kitchen on greasy stoves, in the bathroom on shower tiles, in the washroom on laundry, in the living room on carpet stains, in the garage on engines and wheels and on the deck on mildewed outdoor furniture. It’s a [...]

Tide Coldwater Laundry Detergent Reviews
I’ve been a faithful Tide user for about a year now. I’ve tried cheap store brands to save money, other big brands and I even made my own laundry soap during a crunchy moment. While I was still couponing a year ago I hit a great sale on Tide and stocked up. After using it [...]

Review of Advil Congestion Relief
As a mom, half my job is talking about gross stuff and the other half is cleaning up that same gross stuff. With cold and flu season here, we’ve already had three different bouts of crud this winter. I had the worst cold on Christmas day with the worst headache and sinus pressure. I wasn’t [...]

Reviews of Hershey’s Milk Chocolate with Almonds Pieces
I’m in Hershey, Pennsylvania, right now on our “winter retreat” with my kids and a bunch of my girlfriends and all their kids. We hang out, cook, and talk. Hershey Park is closed for the season, so the highlight of our trip is a visit to a magical place called Chocolate World. At Chocolate World [...]
