BARBAR Hair ToolsThrough the course of my life, I've come to learn several things to be true and one of them is, "You get what you pay for".  I don't know how many times I've bought the cheapest item made only to be sorely disappointed later.

Just recently, I discovered the major differences in curling irons and flat irons and how the cheaper models are actually destroying your hair!  Now, I had the same opportunity to compare blow dryers.  I've always used some off-brand, inexpensive blow dryer on my hair and figured that there probably wasn't much difference between the one I was using and the salon variety.  I mean, don't they all just blow hot air?  Well, I had the chance to review an ionic blow dryer from BARBAR and can honestly say that yes, there definitely IS a difference and you DO get what you pay for!

I reviewed the BARBAR Italy 3800 Ionic Charger Blow Dryer which retails for $150.00, but is currently on sale for $120.00.
In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, BARBAR Inc. would like to offer 50% off TWO of their blow dryers (Ceramic ECO-8000 and Italy 4800 Ionic Blow Dryer).  A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to a breast cancer organization of their choice.  Use coupon code: "beat50cancer"

But wait, there`s more! »

Mad Toddler Forget any expectations you have of skipping from house to house with your elated, well-behaved toddler.  The first Halloween experience may look drastically different than what you anticipate.

Be ready to go home early if you need to and pay close attention to your toddler's over-stimulation signals to make sure it's fun for both of you.  You can make it a great, ghoulish night filled with good memories, or hideously heinous by engaging in this list of killjoys.

But wait, there`s more! »

Peppa Pig Some of my favorite things have come from "across the pond"...the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Jude Law, Christian Bale.  :awe:  You get the idea!  Now, Peppa Pig has also jumped across the pond to delight preschoolers everywhere with her award-winning television show.

Peppa Pig is a top-rated animated series in the U.K. geared for preschool-aged children.  What's unique is that each episode is only about 5-minutes long, instead of the typical 15-minute format of most children's shows my daughter watches.  Peppa Pig follows the daily adventures of Peppa, a lovable, energetic little piggy who lives with her brother George, Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig.

My entire family has long enjoyed the antics of Peppa Pig and her clan and now, thanks to the new Peppa Pig merchandise from Fisher-Price, my daughter can be delighted by Peppa any time!

I received the following Peppa Pig merchandise from Fisher-Price, Candlewick Press and Entertainment One Family:

Sip 'n Oink Tea Set, which retails for $15.99

Peppa's Treehouse, which retails for $14.99

Peppa & Family Play Figures, which retails for $10.99

Peppa & Friends Plush, which retails for $9.99

Muddy Puddles and Other Stories DVD, which retails for $14.98

Peppa Pig and the Lost Christmas List Book (Hardcover), which retails for $12.99

Sesame StreetOne of the things I LOVE about being Riley's mommy is having an endless supply of silly entertainment on hand at all times.  My daughter is only 3 years old, but she keeps me laughing and giggling on a daily basis with her innocent wit and silly antics.

Sesame Street believes in having fun through education and is a brand that both my daughter and I grew up with.  Elmo was actually my daughter's first true love and she's always enjoyed anything and everything from this furry little guy.  That's why I was thrilled to learn of a brand new Sesame Street toy that's sure to be huge this holiday season...LOL Elmo!

Keep reading to learn more about how you could bring home a huge Sesame Street toy prize pack, just for having a good laugh with your little one!

Hurry, the brand new LOL Elmo toy made its debut today!  It retails for $39.99 with FREE SHIPPING.
