Review/Giveaway: Eau Flirt Perfume


Eau Flirt perfume, a hint of seduction, need I say more!! You may have heard of Ageless Anti-Age perfume by Harvey Prince, well this is their newest family member that launched on July 1, 2009. Eau Flirt has been clinically proven to attract men with its wickedly irresistible fragrance. Heads will turn with just one whiff of this subtle, yet sexy scent. Eau Flirt has been infused with essences of pumpkin.....it promises to make you feel flirty & fabulous!

The study tested the effects of 30 different single scent or combined ingredient
scents on male sexual arousal. The combination of lavender and pumpkin pie
proved to evoke the most passionate response

♦ Eau Flirt’s proprietary blend includes top notes black currant, plum, raspberry,
apple, and black licorice and lavender, middle notes of jasmine, ylang, nutmeg and
cinnamon (the classic aromas of pumpkin pie), and a drydown of musk and rare
and precious woods

♦ Ingredients are all natural flower and plant essences and sourced from France,
Italy and the U.S.

♦ No animal testing

♦ Allergy tested

♦ No artificial colorings

What are you waiting for.........get your flirt on!

My 17 year old daughter tried Eau Flirt first. When she walked by me I was like, "WOW you smell good!" She left the house that day to "hang" with friends and when she came home I had asked her if anyone said anything about how she smelled. She said guys were commenting like crazy saying she smelled "yummy" and even the girls were going crazy over the scent!

When I tried Eau Flirt, I immediately fell in love! It is so hard to describe it, did I say YUMMY??? It is a scent that lasts and I like that.

Review/Giveaway: Ageless Anti-Age Perfume



The ultimate youth perfume! Ageless Anti-Age perfume by Harvey Prince. Research & clinical trials have proven that men around women who use Ageless believe them to be at least 8 years younger! It’s new, it’s fresh and youthful.

Benefits:

AGELESS was designed with one goal in mind- to make you smell and feel younger!

Why it Works:

We have used notes that are associated with youth. Tropical fruity notes are associated with youthful feelings. These include luscious, tropical mango, pineapple, anti oxidant pomegranate and green apple. Most importantly pink grapefruit has been associated with youth and age lowering perception.

The Science:

Inspired by recent scientific discoveries and clinical trials, we have developed AGELESS - anti age perfume. Our patent-pending fragrance elixir defies your skin's natural age revealing scent. Research has proven that men around women who use Ageless believe them to be at least 8 years younger! Ageless. A dramatically different anti-age perfume.

I was very happy when I was contacted by Harvey Prince to try this perfume. I have many different perfumes, but some are too strong, others just don't last through the day. I think I have found my medium. Ageless perfume has such a beautiful, light scent. It is not overpowering at all and I really like that! The light scent just makes you happy, and therefore feel younger. That is the greatest benefit......and of course being told by everyone that I smell fantastic!

The Giveaway:

Harvey Prince has offered one of my readers a chance to win their very own bottle! One lucky reader will receive a bottle of Ageless Anti-Age Spray Perfume 3.4oz. Let me tell you, this is NOT a small bottle!!

The Friday 56: The Gift Of An Ordinary Day: A Mother's Memoir

This is my first time participating in this meme, but here goes it, and I hope I do it right :)

A weekly meme hosted by Storytime with Tonya and Friends

Rules:
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of this blog.
*Post a link along with your post back to this blog.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

This weeks "The Friday 56" from Storytime with Tonya and Friends is: The Gift of an Ordinary Day A Mother's Memoir by: Katrina Kenison

"The long view across the tall grasses to the stone walls and distant, blue green mountains fills me with serenity. My restlessness of the last few years has quieted here."

I'm Gonna Have To Go To The Zoo Soon To Be Weighed

Yikes! I have ugly feet! But that's not what this post is about. It is about that nasty red number there. I know you can see it, you can see it from miles away!

When I became pregnant 17 years ago, I was 117 lbs. Oohhhh those were the days! I was 20 years old and 117 lbs. This is NOT the "baby weight" that I am carrying around. I did manage to maintain a weight of 130 lbs. after my daughter was born and up to two years ago. I liked being 130 lbs.; I thought that was a good weight for my 5'2" self.

WHAT happened?? I hate to even say 180 lbs. I mean age is "just a number", but weight sure isn't. I live in t-shirts, sweatshirts, and sweatpants because NOTHING fits anymore! I avoid going places because of this. I have been on medication for over a year because my cholesterol is so high.

I definitely know that I am not as active as I used to be (damn you Twitter) and I do not eat healthy. The screwed up thing is I LOVE healthy food and awesome salads and I don't even use dressing on them! I love veggies, all of them. So what is the problem? Lazy. Lazy. Lazy. C'mon, admit it, it's so easy to just nuke a Hot Pocket!

Last night, I attended a Twitter party (if you are unfamiliar with that, you are missing out!) for the next Mamavation Mom. I was contemplating on trying out for it, but I was a big FAT chicken (kicking self in ass right now). Anyhoo, this Mamavation Mom thing is where it's at. I am now motivated to lose this weight! I am joining the follow at home program because I am determined to lose this weight and feel good about myself again.

By no means is this going to be easy, but changes must be made to my lifestyle NOW, life is too short ;) If you or anyone you know is struggling with losing weight (I feel like a commercial), please join me and we can all support one another. The follow at home program is free and they offer great resources and support.

P.S. Unfortunately if you are a faithful reader of my blog, you will see my ugly feet weekly for weigh in time :)

***I was not "compensated" for saying positive things about the Mamavation Mom or the follow at home program. It is my true opinion and I am entitled to that! Happy Dieting :)

Giveaway & Review Make Ahead Meals For Busy Moms by Jane Doiron Cookbook (CLOSED)


Who doesn't love new recipes and cookbooks? I know I do! I am always looking for new recipes, but more importantly, recipes that are quick and easy to put together.

The author, Jane Doiron, knew what she was doing when she created this wonderful cookbook: Make Ahead Meals for Busy Moms. The recipes are perfect for freezing, assembling the night before, or for quick reheating.

The cookbook has 140 delicious recipes from the following categories:

Appetizers
Breakfast and Brunch
Dessert
Main Dishes
Side Dishes
Soup

There is also a Helpful Hints section and Measurement Equivalents. Very Handy!

The recipes are very easy to follow and do not have tons of ingredients that you would have to search for. I like that simple concept. Most recipes have what to do a day ahead and freezing instructions.

I first tried the Mini Meatloaves. I have tried many different Meatloaf recipes, but this one is definitely a keeper, my family loved it! Of course we needed a side dish, so I chose Chive and Onion Potato Casserole. Loved it! It was so easy to prepare and so very yummy to eat!

Jane knows busy! She is a mom of two boys and an elementary school teacher.

There are many more recipes that I will be trying and.....you have a chance to try them too!!!

Jane Doiron has provided me with one copy of Make Ahead Meals for Busy Moms to give away to one of my lucky readers! YAY!
