I love my new Eat Smart Precision Tracker Digital Bathroom Scale.  It is perfect for my household, who is obsessed with weight.  We each weigh ourselves once a week, and this scale is perfect.  I love that I’ve lost 3 pounds since weighing myself with it. Eat Smart has a lot of wonderful products.  Scales are my favorite though.  I get a new one every Christmas, even though there’s a two year warranty.  And, I always get Eat Smart. Their scales have weight tracking, for up to 2 users.  We have 3 of us, but I keep my weight in a journal, the other two keep theirs tracked on the scale.  These scales are so beautiful, and worth the money.  Not expensive either. Features include: 12.4″ x 12.4″ durable tempered glass platform with metal accents Easy to read quick response 3.0″ x 1.9″ blue backlit display Weight tracking, instant-on/off, auto zero technology and indications for low battery and overload to preserve battery life High capacity of 440 lbs in 0.2 lb increments (units of measurement available in lb/kg) 3 AAA batteries and a 2 year limited warranty I always hand my last one down to someone else, who is trying to track…

My 21 year old, daughter, loves her DIY kit.  The Handcrafted Lip Balms were perfect for her to make this time of year.  She can give them out for Christmas gifts, and they are hand made, and from the heart.  She loved receiving this kit, and opening it, and making it.  She says it was easy to do, and so much fun. The kit included everything she needed to make five round lip balms.  They are super fashionable, and made of beeswax.  I love the one she gave me, it’s in my purse.  And, it’s almost like a story book, for the packaging.  It’s really neat. The price is an excellent value, and you’d pay more to buy 5 lip balms, than putting yourself out there, to make them. She actually handed these out early, to the family, and everyone loves them.  My mom said she loves the scent, and the way it makes her lips feel when she puts it on.  My sister said “Wow Sarah, I didn’t know you were this talented, thanks!” DIY natural beauty has never been easier, or more fun! Handcrafted Lip Balms includes the pods, beeswax, and mold to make your own all-natural lip balms, with…

The Blu Ray Disc, Deluxe Edition of  The Original Christmas Specials Collection is wonderful.  It brings back so many memories, and now I’m making those memories with my children.  Even though my daughter is in her 20s, she still loves to sit down and watch these animated flicks with my 7 year old, and me. My favorite has always been Frosty the Snowman, while my daughter’s favorite is The Little Drummer Boy, and Jacob, my 7 year old, well he’s not sure which one he likes most.  We’ve watched this Blu Ray about 15 times already, but I keep wanting to go back for more.  And, it’s so cute, that I’ve ordered one for my best friend’s daughter, for Christmas. There’s tons of bonuses on this Blu Ray, and the discs are inexpensive.  Get yours in time for Christmas. I can never stay up late enough, yes 8pm is late to me, to watch these on tv, so I now have the discs and can watch when we are ready. ‘Tis the season to enjoy the timeless holiday classics in The Original Christmas Specials Collection featuring five unforgettable stories. Produced by Rankin/Bass, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Comin’…
