Up until a few years ago, I did not know how much difference a sheet could make. My Mother-In-Law had a set of 100% Cotton Egyptian sheets she had never even taken out of the package. She brought them to us to see if we could use them. Lucky …

The Tri-City area as it is called, is made up of Port Moody, Coquitlam and Port Coquitlam, or as some call it “Poco” My sister who used to live in Port Moody works as a para-legal in a place called “The Poco Law office” while my Brother, …

I’m a huge fan of anything to do with liquorice (licorice) or aniseed. I search out these products at any supermarket I go to and I like to try out any new foods or drinks that I come across. I prefer the natural products to the ones …

What comes around goes around is an old saying that I firmly believe in. There are some truly amazing people in the world and if you are good to others, eventually when you really need it someone will help you.
Part of the reason I believe it is because we …

Although the episode was well written I found something really unpleasing about it. During the whole time I was watching it, something kept bothering me. Maybe there were parts of the story which I did not fully believe or maybe I just did not like the main character of …

The Logitech M305 Wireless Mouse (red color) is the best mouse I’ve ever purchased. I’ve owned it for one year now, and will definitely purchase more Logitech mice in the future.
When I purchased a laptop I needed a comfortable, good quality wireless mouse that would not irritate my …

Not a bad episode. I like the second murder case they were working on, the one with the abduction. The first one was really strange and disappointing. Not only was it not interesting, but it did not even make sense.
In the first case a young man is found dead …

A woman is found dead after drowning in an experimental self cleaning restroom. Not only does is appear like a strange accident, but it is also surrounded my much misunderstanding. First of all the CSI team need to figure out how such a thing was possible, and then …

This past weekend in Calgary, Alberta, over 1,200 people walked 60km in two days to raise money for cancer. Called the Weekend to End Breast Cancer, it is an event which is held in many cities across Canada, and it has become enormously popular. My friend has been involved …

If ever you were looking for a quaint little spot to have a wedding, look no further than the Grande. Ordinarily I’m unimpressed by “Old Southern” charm. But The Grande Wedding Venue and Bridal House is a little piece of Southern utopia. It is actually …

I researched the available propane forges when I decided to upgrade my knife-making hobby from kit knives to knives made from scratch. There’s a big difference between the tools necessary to complete kit knives and those needed to make a knife from unshaped pieces of metal and wood. …

For the longest time, I have been looking for a real good razor, one that shaved all the undesired hair or stubble without getting any burns. I tried nearly all expensive razor models, for both dry and wet operations. Just some of them were: Gillette Sensor, Braun …

I was in my local supermarket yesterday and was forced to complain. It had various items in different aisles, clearly identified. I was most disappointed to find that the whisky aisle was spelled —˜Whiskey’, and in the land where whisky originated as well. Dreadful.
However, the main purpose of this …

The very first time that I ever stepped in to the U.S. Embassy in Manila was when my fiance is here. That was last April,2007. We went there to gather information on how to apply for a fiance visa.

I have been using the “Energy From The Ocean” - Head And Shoulders Shampoo for the past several months. My overall experience with this shampoo has been good and I would love to share it with you.
Please let me start this review by saying that I love the way …

I am a sucker for a good, strong tasting drink. I’ll happily knock back a tomato juice with loads of Worcestershire Sauce, because it can really hit the spot when you’re awaiting some decent food, but there’s half an hour to go and there are rumblings from the digestive …

My baby just turned three in November. We have been working with her for a while on her numbers, letters, colors, and other things. There are some great leaning games out now. I like things that she can play and have fun while learning at the same time. For …

Ultra Palmolive Green Apple Concentrated Dish Liquid is truly the greatest dish washing liquid I have …

I’m almost ashamed to admit I’ve never donated money to the American Red Cross before. It’s not because I don’t normally give to charity, because I do. It’s because I never fully understood what the organization did.
That was until we had to cope with a major flood here in …

When my new home was finished I ordered some trees for the yard from Moon Valley Nursery in Chandler Arizona. I realized they would need food since our desert ground has little nutrition. Something called Moon Dust, sold by their company, was suggested. I decided to stick with my Miracle …

L.A.Looks Absolute Styling Sport 20 oz for 3.59 mega x-treme hold 10+ activity proof power gel. This is a very good gel product. I use it daily after each shampoo. I rub about a tablespoon into my long hair and move it around with my fingers for a crunched …

I really liked the beginning of the episode, it seemed like it was going to be a hell of a story. But the ending was absolutely horrible. Well, maybe not completely horrible. One of the cases was completely disappointing, and the other one was left open, so I would …

It is a shame that the Little Debbie Creme-Filled Strawberry Cupcakes are not available year-round because I really do like them quite a lot. The reason I like these strawberry cupcakes quite a lot is because the strawberry flavor is quite flavorful and authentic. The flavoring does not taste …

That is not a bad way to start another season of an amazing show. The writers are throwing us right into the action from the very beginning. The Episode begins with murder not vacation memories. And like a good murder mystery we only find out who the killer was …

The dreaded I-405 was surely placed by the devil himself, as it has created nothing more than pain and more pain for the everyday commuter, as well as the occasional traveler. Serving the long stretch of southern California, the freeway is no stranger to insane amounts of traffic in …

I have been using this Penway Pencil and Crayon Sharpener for months and I must say I really like it. It is simple but works very well. Simple is good, as it seems that too many companies goof their products up when they try to “improve” them. I’m glad …

I purchased the Western Safety Industrial Ear Muffs a short time ago. The reason for the purchase was two fold. One I wanted to let my daughter use them for fire works as she doesn’t like the noise of them and secondly I wanted to use them myself …

What a lovely shade of green! I always have a thing deep in my heart for green polishes, and I am always on the lookout for another green shade for my collection. One reason why OPI is my brand of choice is that they don’t just make red shades; …

I am currently reviewing another product from the AcneFree collection, called the repair lotion. I use this after the cleanser and toner as a moisturizer, and I find that it does a pretty good job, and it doesn’t clog my pores, and doesn’t make me feel greasy right after …

I’ve always believed it’s important to support a good cause and to support your local community. As such, I make it a point to shop at the local Salvation Army as often as possible. If it saves me a couple bucks in the process, then all the better! At …

Having owned a Cricut Expressions machine for a little over a year now, I have gone through quite a bit of Cricut Sticky Boards, and since they are so expensive to purchase, I have come up with a lot of creative ways to get a lot of usage out …

This is the most intriguing toothbrush I have ever used. I have bought the Colgate 360 toothbrush only once because I was so curious then when I saw its TV advertisement. I got so encourage looking for this brand of toothbrush and try one. Actually I am not so …

We have a garden by the side of our house filled with tall palms and a variety of plants. On lazy nights when my friends come over, this is where we stay to play cards or just hang out. Because of the plants, however, mosquitoes have become …

One day while …

This movie came on television last night. I ended up watching it because nothing else was on. I had seen it a long time ago but I had forgot about it. Overall it’s a really good movie. I wouldn’t say that it is one of my favorites or even …

This is one of my most favourite episodes on the show. I found the stories to be really unusual and intriguing and totally unanticipated. I wonder if those kind of things are possible in real life. Or at least theoretically. The cases were strange but I really loved it.
In …

I love buying these 3-packs of Memo Books from my local Family Dollar. They are a great value. Some stores sell a single memo book for over a dollar but here you can get three of them for a dollar. They are not fancy (no pictures on the cover) …

It’s not because I love their Energizer Bunny commercials, because I do, but I really do prefer Energizer Batteries over any other brand I’ve used.

St. John’s in Newfoundland is the oldest English-founded settlement in North America — certainly a historic town with a lot of places to see. The famous buildings in the downtown area were within walking distance from my hotel. After exhausting myself walking up and down hill to the downtown …
