It’s About Teamwork!
I could sit here and say that everything I’ve accomplished with this site is of my own doing, but that would be a lie. Yes, I work hard….VERY HARD…every day, but there are more people than just me that have had a hand in my success. I’ve had many people help me in various ways,…
Product Review: Cortex Solo 450 Titanium Digital Flat Iron / Hair Straightener, Available at Flat Iron Experts
I have naturally very wavy hair, that sometimes looks curly, that can be a bit unruly and messy at times.

Must Watch Video: Toy Critic Pug
Our pug, Mya, is a valued member of our family. Her facial expressions and the way she tilts her head when we talk to her makes us laugh every day. Anytime that I see a pug photo on Facebook or Pinterest, I can’t help but smile since they all remind me of Mya Papaya, as…
