So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

The True Confessions of a Shopaholic

By Kitty G Kat

On Friday, February 13th, I went to see the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic. The movie was cute (girlie movie), but a bit depressing and definitely predictable.

Credit cards at the limit...Creditors calling all hours of the day? So many of us are living from day to day and not living with high priced designer clothing. Not that it wouldn't be nice, but the average Jill (my version of the average Joe) doesn't buy the clothes Rebecca Bloomwood wore in the movie...more like Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren or Alfani. Still these clothes can add up..I know all too well.

No Denying it...I do like to shop and maybe you can call me a shopaholic. It's a must to have one or two new pieces of the latest fashion trends to mix up with last years clothes. Luckily, a lot of last summers styles are still in for this year too.

A few days ago I went to our local TJ Maxx to find some torn, acid wash skinny jeans only to find some slightly torn wide leg jeans. Disappointed yes but I didn't leave the store empty handed. I purchased a silk skirt and a black top for $43.00 to wear to my dad's 80th birthday party March 7th. Another brown top on sale for $5.00...had to have it, it matches a sweater I bought a couple weeks ago. Oh and on my way to the register, of course I found a jacket and top set for St. Patrick's Day on sale from $114.00 to $55.00. With my $10.00 rewards coupon...the total was $100.00, a steal!

The bummer of the whole trip is that I max'd out my TJ Maxx credit card on clothes I probably didn't need. The high that we get right before and during shopping is addicting, but are we replacing it with some other feeling we are missing in our lives? Does it thrill us and make us feel important to get noticed and envied by the Jills? Your guess is as good as mine.

Our purse stings can be tied pretty tight trying to keep up with the Jills. Due to the economy may stores are having great sales, so even if we must have a brand new pair of shoes, we can find great deals. Or maybe, we can find a rich man like Rebecca did in the movie. One never knows.

PS. Now I just hope that eBay doesn't sell the wardrobe from the movie, cause that would be bad:(

Sources Ready To Help With Replica Designer Jewelry

By Ernst Ralborg

Most of those among the working class have thought about owning a nice article of designer jewelry, but the price usually stops them from making the purchase. Authentic designer jewelry items, such as the exquisite earrings, necklaces and bracelets available today, are often far beyond the budget of most people.

But there is one "benefit" of designer jewelry that may put similar items within the reach of a large number in the buying public - replica and imitation designer jewelry. Of course, original jewelry from top-name designers is constructed with only the finest materials and the designs are often one-of-a-kind. The desirability created by this quality makes original items attractive to individuals and companies that want to reproduce items at a lower cost. For those on a limited budget, these replicas and imitations have a lot of appeal. Because most women want to accessorize with nice jewelry, replica designer items may be the answer. Designers of replica jewelry are ready to give the woman some class and sensuality without draining the bank account.

The most carefully constructed imitation jewelry is very difficult to distinguish from an original piece. Only the closest inspection by a knowledgeable expert will be able to make the distinction. This makes replica designer jewelry perfect for the woman who wants to turn a nice evening outfit into a dazzling display with selected jewelry pieces. Most fashion experts recommend not overdoing it with any jewelry, and this certainly applies to replica items. An understated look with nice earrings and matching necklace may be all that is required. A pendant with a stone that matches eye color is always a discreet but effective step.

It would be best to select imitation jewelry items based on design, on overall style and on size, using all of these factors to enhance the person's appearance. Choosing the correct item of replica designer jewelry can provide the effect the wearer is looking for, without the exorbitant cost.

When planning the jewelry items that will go with a dress, fashion experts recommend trying to match replica designer jewelry pieces to the assets of the personality as well as to the outward appearance. The best effect of jewelry focuses on the face, which is where the perfect earrings fit in. A nice choker that is not overbearing can accentuate the face as well. Some women prefer to highlight their cleavage with a long pendant-style item.

Of course, the items should work well with the evening attire. Among the many items that a woman can choose from, something should fit the look very well. The goal, of course, is to grab the attention of those who will see the person wearing the jewelry (an idea that many people forget). While it is very important to select and purchase items of replica designer jewelry, it is just as important to wear those items correctly. Putting nice jewelry pieces with the wrong clothing, or on the wrong person, defeats the designer's purpose. Remember that the idea of putting jewelry into the mix means creating a style statement that fits the occasion.

Advanced Wellness Research Special Offers Info

Considering all of the benefits of the acai berry on the body, it is not at all surprising that more and more evidence is showing that this berry also has beneficial effects on the mind and the brain. The acai berry is so rich in nutrients that it is believed to provide greater mental acuity, better memory, better overall mental health, and many other such benefits. Some of these benefits are interrelated with other effects of the acai berry, such as the effects of getting more exercise (something that this berry helps with) to having better mental health, and others seem to be benefits in and of themselves.

One of the ways that this berry works is to promote youthfulness in both body and mind. This is mainly thanks to the high antioxidant levels found within the berry's pulp, which are natural remedies against the evils of free radicals. Since free radicals promote disease, cell destruction, aging, and similar effects, antioxidants provide a very important service by fighting against free radicals. These antioxidants are able to keep the body in much better shape and much more youthful overall, which also makes them perfect candidates for keeping the mind sharper and more youthful. While you may not suddenly become an Einstein just by taking Pure Acai Berry, you may notice yourself feeling a bit sharper and your memory working a bit better. Especially as you get older, this benefit can be really important. Slowing down the natural processes of aging can provide you with the ability to do better at work, to be more productive, to feel younger, and to be more self confident- a pretty impressive list of benefits just from taking one supplement!

Another benefit of the acai berry is that it promotes better energy stores and regulation throughout the day. You known from experience that the first thing to suffer when you get tired is your mental acuity. When the body tires, it is more likely that you will make mistakes, miss important things, and start working more slowly. Therefore, being able to keep your energy levels up can be very important to keeping your mental energy, and thus your work performance high. By having more energy, you can expect that you will be able to look at problems from a fresher perspective, to be able to more accurately complete tasks, and to have much better concentration.

Pure Acai Berry's energy promoting properties also have an indirect effect on mental health and brain power. When you have more energy, you are more likely to feel like talking a walk around the neighborhood, playing with your kids, taking on a game of basketball with friends, or some other physically active activity. And, when you exercise, you can really gain mentally. Time and time again, it has been proven that exercise can fight depression, aid in memory and brain power, and otherwise help your mental acuity.

Should You Buy America's Most Wanted Recipes?

By Chef Pablo

I'm sure you've seen the ads for America's Most Wanted Recipes. It seems they're popping up on every cooking website I visit. After seeing them over and over again, I figured I should probably take a look at the book and give my review. Every review I read was 100% positive with everyone loving the product. I knew there had to be something Ron Douglas could have done better.

Who Uses Cookbooks These Days?

Cookbooks are a thing of the past! I know that's a pretty bold statement and probably a bit of an exaggeration, but think about it, how often do you look up a recipe in a cookbook rather than on your computer? If you're like me, you store most of your favorite recipes online or in a database on your computer. It makes it easier to find and even adjust the quantity of your recipes. Sure, there are some old favorites I still have in book form, but they're slowly moving over to the virtual world.

If you've tried more than a couple dozen online recipes, you know first hand that there are some BAD recipes online. I have even gone back and looked at the recipe to make sure I didn't measure something wrong or use the wrong ingredient. It's rare, but it does happen. It's a risk you take when you search for online recipes.

All of the restaurant recipes you'll find in Ron Douglas' Americas Most Wanted Recipes have been run through their paces on his cooking website by over 45,000 discerning cooks. It's not until the recipe receives the approval of those users that it makes it's way into one of his books. It's almost like an online testing lab with very honest researchers. Add a bit more pepper, less cream, cook this at a lower temperature and other modifications have perfected these recipes.

Will I Like The Recipes?

When I go out to eat, I enjoy going to The Cheesecake Factory, PF Changs, Olive Garden and on special occasions maybe even Ruth Chris Steakhouse. When I want to make a copy cat recipe at home, it's almost always going to be from one of these restaurants. So, I had to look through the list of recipes to see if I would even want to make them. Perfect! There it was, PF Changs Lettuce Wraps and even those Cracker Barrel Fried Apples. I found all of my favorites from Applebee's, TGI Fridays, Red Lobster and even Starbucks. Great, at least I'll want to make the recipes.

Was It Easy to Purchase?

My initial reaction to the website was "ugh... run away." Seriously, it seemed a little on the amateur site and made me feel like someone was selling something to me. I don't like that. But, I did find all the recipes I was looking for and I pressed the dreaded purchase button. I was really quite surprised with how well things went. The book was available as an instant download. I was able to look through my purchase right away.

I was surprised nobody tried to sell me up to a higher level. When you buy the book, you get volume 1 and 2 as well as several other cookbooks on sauces, comfort foods, grilling, special occasion foods, diabetic recipes, and even one that's "kid-friendly". These all came with my initial purchase. Nobody tried to bump me up to a different price for the extras. That's commendable.

The Bad Stuff

OK, every review I've read about Ron Douglas book has nothing but good things to say about it. But, I know there's no such thing as perfect product. What part of the book was going to disappoint me? To begin with, I didn't find any pictures in the book. Not to disappointing since I knew what they should all look like before I even started to cook them. But it would have helped. He also could have given a bit more detail on some of the recipes. For the most part, the things he left out could seem obvious, but it's always good to have the details spelled out "just in case." Anything lacking in the book, I found at his members only website. Fortunately a lifetime membership is included with the book purchase.

My Recommendation

If you purchased this book today, I don't think you'll be disappointed. It's definately worth the price. You'll recover this in savings from just a few meals eaten at home rather than at the actual restaurant. I was very satisfied with the book and find myself referencing it regularly. If for some reason you find it's not worth what you paid for it, Clickbank is the third party business you make the purchase through and they'll make sure you have a full 60 days to request a refund.

Over 700 recipes and membership to an exclusive community of other folks just like you for less than the price of a typical meal at one of these restaurants. I'd say that's a bargain.
