Silver Rocket Pack Diaper Bag Collection from Ju Ju Be
Our best friends are having twins, they just found out a month ago that it’s a boy and a girl, or so they were told (I won’t believe it until they’re actually born, I’ve seen too many people think they were having a girl and it turned out to be a boy.)
So I have been shopping like mad the last month for great baby shower gifts for them. He’s a big time Yankee’s fan who works with my husband in warehousing, she’s a former professional ballerina, how the two ended up together - we may never know. (Okay, actually they met when she moved back to the area and got a job at his parents restaurant.) We’re so excited for them.
When they first found out they were expecting, we teased Billy relentlessly, telling him that they were going to end up with twins. Hmm… maybe we shouldn’t have teased so much? But they’re thrilled about it.
Needless to say, I have been to every local and semi-local baby store and haven’t been able to find anything that stood out, that I knew both of them would like. Then I ran across Forest and Zoe, and the Ju Ju Be diaper bag collection, and knew that I had hit the jackpot. I just love the silver rocket pack collection, and they have it in both pink and blue. The accessories to match are so cute, and so different, that I know both Billy and Jaime will love it! It’s unlike anything I’ve seen before, and looks great. I can’t wait until it gets here!
So if you’re looking for a diaper bag that makes a statement, instead of those “eww too cute” ones that can be found at any store - look no further check out the Ju Ju Be Diaper Bag Collection at Forest and Zoe. With all that they have to choose from, you’ll certainly find the one that’s right for you!
This makes me want another baby even more!

One of my clients called this morning, he needs me to go set up his home network. I informed him that I sick and taking a few days off, not to mention the fact that I don’t work outside of my home on Saturdays. Duh?
Still not feeling better? He asked. (He’s called everyday since Wednesday trying to get me out there.) Nope. I’m still feeling crappy. Then he informed me that he has something that will make me feel better, and that he’ll have his wife drop it off on her way to work later.

LCD HDTV - It is well worth it!
We were always hearing how great the LCD HDTVs are from my husband’s best friend, so this past spring when our Flat screen TV died, we bought and LCD TV to replace it. Since we knew we were going to build this summer, we never bothered to subscribe to the HDTV service, we figured we’d wait until we were in the new place.
So when they hooked up our new satellites a few weeks ago, we had them install the HD service. I never really expected much of a difference in the picture quality, as to me just the regular picture on the LCD TV was amazing compared to our old screen.
I was wrong! I admit it. (See, I do admit when I’m wrong.) The high definition channels are amazing. I love it. I really just started noticing a difference the last few days, as I’ve actually had some time to spend in front of the old boob tube. I took a liking to the DVR as soon as we got it, but most of the shows I like aren’t on channels that had high def available.

For years I’ve suffered from hundreds of sore throats, according to my doc, I need to have my tonsils out. But I can’t even stand the thought of that. Then a fews years back, when I was still working in land development, my boss, a hobbyist bee keeper, told me to start taking honey for my sore throats, and he handed me a bottle. (At that time I hated even the smell of honey, because he used the kitchen in our office to process his honey, so the whole place always reeked of it.) So I came home that night and did some research on the topic.
Of course, you can find information on just about anything if you spend enough time looking for it online. Now whether or not you can believe most of that information is another thing. I found tons of sites extolling the virtues of honey and cinnamon, and I figured what the heck, it can’t hurt me, as they are two ingredients that I use often in cooking, so I started taking a tablespoon of honey sprinkled with cinnamon a couple times a day whenever my tonsils started acting up.
