Art Gallery

I love the look of having some great art in homes and one of my goals is to own a few pieces of fine art. I have always wanted to attend an art auction and to feel the great buzz of those who appreciate great art. At Park West Gallery they offer art auctions all throughout the United States and Canada so the chances of attending one of these auctions are great. Through their affiliate Park West at Sea they offer art auctions at sea, and who wouldn’t love to be at sea and to attend an art auction. The Park West Art gallery is a great place to look for fine art and with their large selection to choose from finding the best piece of art for your home is easy.

Finance Genius

This is a great site that has all our financial needs in one convenient place. They offer lots of information and help on anything from student loans to car insurance and even Gap Insurance which is something that we have always had added to our insurance. With my Husband going to school we have acquired some student loans and I'm sure that once he is done they are going to be quite big but with FinanceGenuis they offer some great tips and opinions on how to help get these loans paid off. And if your like me which I hope there are none of you out here, I have the hardest time keeping to a budget and making sure that we get the things we need and then a few wants ever once in a while.

Zero Gravity Massage Chair

After a long day at work I know most of us could use a nice hot bath or even better a massage. Or better yet having a Human Touch HT 7450 Zero Gravity Massage Chair to take to work with us.

Pain Relief

While my mom was working in a nursing home a few years ago she was doing a patient transfer and somehow hurt her back really bad. She was out of work for a few weeks while her back healed. Well it has never fully healed and to this day if she turns the wrong way or lifts something just right it will cause this old injury to flare up and cause extreme pain. I believe that the Freeze It Gel would be a big help for her as she has tried many different products to help ease the pain. I know that when it does really hurt her she is out for days and then it takes weeks for her to finally feel like she can even stand up straight and with living with us she really misses being able to hold the kids and to play with them. I feel that if I did have the Freeze It Gel on hand she would be the one that I would give it to just so she could have some relief and to try and be as comfortable as possible. After looking at their site and reading about the benefits this product has to offer and all the different types of aliments that it is designed to help, I know that I would even benefit from using Freeze It . They offer 2 different types of application a roll on, or a handy 4 oz. tube which is small and convenient. I know I would feel at ease knowing that she had something that she could use on a daily bases that would help her stand straight and be able to enjoy the daily activities she once enjoyed with out to much pain. After reviewing everything that Freeze It has to offer I feel that it would be something that I most defiantly will have in my medicine box.

Car Quotes

As our family keeps growing and growing, we are going to need a new car soon and for me the sooner the better. I have checked online quite a few times as we have started the process of looking for a bigger car for us and at carsblvd.com they offer quotes, loans and more all in one spot!! As I have been looking my dream van would be a Honda Odyessy and with there Honda Car Quote it would be quite easy to get a quote for this. And if Honda isn't your first choice they will give you up to 2 quotes for FREE. Its nice to know that you can go to one place and have the dealers compete for business instead of being hounded by the sales people at a car dealership. And at carsblvd.com they offer wholesale prices so you will never have to pay full price on any car you choose from them.

Coupons

The more and more I am online, I continue to see lots of things for sale and with this site they have loads of Coupons to choose from. I know that we would be able to get the best deal for us. They they are always updated the site and with its easy to read layout and super easy to find exactly what you need. We are in the need of a new desk top computer and with the Dell coupons. And with our laptop we need something to carry it in. With the eBags coupons I know they would carry the exact bag we would need for our computer. So check out this free coupon site when you are making your next purchase online and they just might have a coupon for you to help ease the price.

Stand Mixer

With all the recipes I use today a lot require some type of mixer to use especially the desserts that I make. As a kid growing up we did have a hand held mixer that wasn't very easy to use once you started adding in the flour and ended up having to use your hands to get the rest of the flour mixed it. Well as I grew older I come across this wonderful recipe for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies and as it makes quite a bit it is not the easiest recipe to use with a hand held mixer or stirring by hand but with the Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixer would make this job super easy. I wanted to share this great recipe with you

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
1cup shortening
2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1(15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
4 cups all purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground nutmeg
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees, Grease cookie sheets

In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Stir in the vanilla and pumpkin until well blended. Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg; stir into the pumpkin mixture. Mix in the chocolate chips. Stir in the walnuts if desired. Drop by teaspoon to prepared cookie sheet.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, till edges are nicely brown. Allow to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet then remove and place on wire rack to cool completely.


I have really enjoyed using different mixers during my life and I feel that the Hamilton Beach® Mixer would be the best choice for us. With their mixer they have the ability to mix 9 dozen cookies, or 4 1lb loafs of bread. I am sure that there isn’t another mixer out there that would be able to stand up to that type of mixing. I do have a mixer and I’m currently pleased with how it performs but I know that it won’t last forever and when we do look in to getting a new mixer I’m defiantly going to be looking at the Eclectrics® Mixer

Alzheimer's Foundation eStore

With all the things going on in this world lately one of the things that is scariest to me is not remembering things that happened recently. With the Alzheimer's Foundation they are doing as much as they can to help raise money for a cure. We can do our part in helping to find a cure by getting some of our holiday gifts by purchasing some of there items in their eStore. They offer many great ideas for family members who might just be a little difficult to find that perfect gift, with there Heart of Cares Jewelry, its very classy and beautiful. They also offer a 2008 calender that features panels there Quilt to Remember who pays respect to those who have passed or are living with dementia, and their families, so that others can recognize the reality and enormity of this disease, and acknowledge that we stand united for optimal care and a cure. With all proceeds going to benefit the Alzheimer's Foundation of America. With these products, the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America hopes to raise awareness and enhance knowledge of Alzheimer’s disease and related illnesses. While they don't have a cure its nice to know that quality care for those who suffer from the disease must not be overlooked, so the holidays are a good time to gift a donation or buy a gift from the eStore.
Those contributions that are made from donations or purchases from there eStore go to help those who are suffering from this disease by providing the quality of care that the patients need, they also offer lots of help for those who are needing information on the disease.

NYC

With having a husband from New York I can't wait till we can go to the city and just explore and to see some of the great attractions. With this New York CityPass it would make it a lot cheaper to see some of these places. And with the holidays coming up it would be a great gift for family that would like to see some of the sites like the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and the American Museum of Natural History and a trip to the top of the Empire State Building observatory and something that I have always wanted to see other then in an airplane is the Manhattan Skyline from the water aboard a Circle Line Sightseeing Cruise. This pass also allows you to bypass the main entrance ticketing lines so you are able to see these places faster for young kids they won't get bored standing in line just waiting. With it being sold at 50% off the retail price of $130.00 the $65 dollar price is something really worth looking into. The New York CityPass winter special runs starts December 15th and runs through March 15 so with 3 full months to use these coupons you would be able to go anytime that is best for you.

Garage Floor Coverings

I know with our garage floor in Utah we needed something to put down so that it looked much better then just plain ol' concrete. I wish we were still there so that we could have put something nice down to help it last longer. At www.carguygarage.com they have great choices on
garage flooring with different tiles to choose from you would be able to create any pattern you like in pretty much any color you like and with it being very durable it will hope up to any abuse you would do to it.

Hopefully one day we will own a house again with a garage I would love to see something like this in our garage to help and protect from the normal wear and tear,

There are many reasons that we should be prepared because we have no idea what will happen in the future.

iFloor

With this day in age many people are turning to online business to get many of their flooring needs. With all the warranty claim es that are being denied because they were purchased on line iFLOOR has added up to $1,000,000 warranty protection to all iFloor customers. With this they reserve the right to seek legal justice on behalf of their customers. To learn more about this please read on.


iFLOOR, America's largest online flooring retailer, today announced a $1,000,000 limited warranty designed to protect its customers from predatory manufacturer policies that exclude warranty coverage from online purchases.

The policy, which goes into effect immediately, offers up to one million dollars of coverage in the event that a customer's warranty claim is denied specifically because they made their purchase online. It is complimentary for every iFLOOR customer, and protects the buyer under the same terms as the original product warranty.

iFLOOR, Inc. CEO, Steve Simonson, came up with the program to combat "scare tactics" used by manufacturers of hardwood floors and laminate flooring. "Their idea is to discourage you from buying at a discount!" wrote Simonson in his blog "It's About Flooring". "This is not right! You deserve to save money! So we're going to take care of this problem once and for all."

And it would appear that federal law is on his side. Section 108 of the 1975 Magnuson-Moss Act, states that, "In general, tie-in sales provisions are not allowed. Such a provision would require a purchaser of the warranted product to buy an item or service from a particular company to use with the warranted product in order to be eligible to receive a remedy under the warranty."

Under iFLOOR's new warranty, a key provision allows for iFLOOR to "seek justice" on behalf of the customer in the event of legal action. According to Simonson, "I'm putting iFLOOR's money where my mouth is."

About iFLOOR, Inc.
Since 1998, iFLOOR.com has been the leading online and retail flooring company, with 36 local retail stores nationwide offering more than 70,000 products, including hardwood floors, laminate flooring, bamboo flooring and cork floors. iFLOOR.com is the largest online flooring retailer according to Internet Retailer Magazine, and was named by Inc. Magazine as one of the fastest growing private companies in the United States for the past three years. Committed to quality customer service, superior selection and friendly expert advice, iFLOOR.com enables customers to buy flooring both online and in its retail stores at a substantial savings over traditional retailers.
