I wrote an article last month about the Kyocera Ceramic Knives, that is truly the best knife I have ever used! I shared the article with the company and they generously offered a Santoku Knife (retails for $65.00) as a giveaway to our readers. Woot!
To enter, simply go to the Kyocera website (in the kitchen utensil section — Kyocera is also the manufacturer of printers and cellphones, among other things) and tell us which of the Santoku knife color you would pick and enter that as a comment here below.

Until I discovered someecards.com some months ago, I had been feeling very sad about the sorry selection of ecards (Please. No. Not another teddy bear, rainbow, balloons and cheezy platitudes). But, admittedly, someecards are perhaps a wee bit too irreverent to be appropriate for everyone and every occasion.
This is where VerveCards.com comes in: colorfully designed and clever with a great choice of very “appropriate” ecards when that is required. Nancy, co-founder of VerveCards, apparently as appalled as I by the dismal choice of reasonably decent ecards ( I know, it’s just totally outreageous!), actually did something about it. Her moment [...]

THANKS TO ALL THAT PARTICIPATED. THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.
My daughter lost her tooth yesterday. Thea came home from school and was excited to show us all. After “the showing” Thea proudly took her tooth and put it under her pillow. For the rest of the day we had to hear about “the Tooth Fairy coming tonight”.
I wrote an article just before Christmas which featured the I Caught Santa website and knew that they had different characters at the Catch a Character website, specifically the Tooth Fairy for this very occasion. So, last night I [...]

Must be the season… Another giveaway. On the heel’s of Audrey’s story about fun websites that help create some Christmas magic, Steven, the principal at ICaughtSanta.com offered up some hard to resist “I caught Santa” photos for our readers. EIGHT of them. I know that we are real close to Christmas, but the “catching Santa in the act” photo process is almost instant, so you still have time to enter…and get your picture. Three little steps. Well, four:
You just need to set up the area of your house where you will want Santa to appear
Take a photo
Upload it
