Do you remember those days where you needed 40 CD’s to save and ‘back up’ your computer? Boy, I do! I have I don’t know HOW many CD’s from the previous years where I would back up (save) all of my data, pictures, videos, documents, music and anything else from my computer. I look at all these CD’s that I still have and I have to roll my eyes. Why didn’t someone come up with something more simple?

Well, HP has done just that, and then some! Now there is a product our called the HP SimpleSave Hard Drive. Why is this called “SimpleSave”? Because it is just that – SIMPLE! This is a portable hard drive that is available in 320- and 500-gigabyte capacities, and a SimpleSave Desktop, available in 1- and 2-terabyte capacities.

Mommy Goggles & Smooshies 8/18

Fun. Smiles. Creating your own monster? I was recently introduced to a FUN toy called Smooshies.

Seriously, these are the cutest and most interactive toys that I have seen in a long time. The kids have a blast sitting in the floor with me, creating new monsters and bringing them to life. Yes, the monsters in our house are alive and quite creative I might add.

What are Smooshies?

Smooshies, a 2009 Creative Child Preferred Choice Award and Dr. Toy Best Vacation Children’s Product for 2009 award winner, are such a fun way for kid’s to have creative play. Kids can create anything they can imagine with the limbs, eyes, ears, and other parts.
Smooshies are fun, plush toys that come with velcro tabs which piece together and your child can recreate or create unique characters, creatures, monsters, or whatever they can dream of together.

Where can you purchase Smooshies and their additional fun parts? Smooshies are being sold exclusively at Joann.com (check it out here)

Happy 60th Anniversary Bikini! *Giveaway – Venus Embrace*

August 9, 2009 by Tanya

Have you ever thought about how old ‘the bikini’ is? I have. Yes, I am odd that way. I find it so fascinating to when things were created. This month marks the 60th anniversary of the bikini in America. When the first bikini was launched it caused an explosion on the fashion scene, and through the years that little piece of fabric has gone through quite an evolution in length, fabrics, colors and cuts. Today, the bikini is a defining force in summer style.

To help celebrate the bikini’s debut in America, Venus has prepared a timeline of 20th century swimsuit fashions and has worked with country star and dancer Julianne Hough to develop a “how to look your bikini best” tip sheet.
