belairhollyq says "All my favorites in one!" about Blue Bunny Peanut Butter Panic Ice Cream

belairhollyq — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 20:47:57 GMT

I've always been a fan of Dairy Queen Reece's PB Cup Blizzards and Cold Stone Creamery PB Cup Perfection Sundaes...but this new flavor from Blue Bunny gives me all those things at home! And for way less $$$$$$$. Peanut Butter Ice cream, PB cups, pb sauce, chocolate sauce...all mixed together. Amazing. My whole family is PB addicts and this is a great ice cream. My favotire was the bunny Tracks but this has bumped that to my second Blue Bunny Favorite!! Try it today....

belairhollyq says "Our family loves these!" about Mrs. T's Potato and Cheddar Pierogies

belairhollyq — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 20:43:26 GMT

Our family loves these. A quick addition to any dinner by popping them in the toaster oven. We always sprinkler a little Season All on top to spice them up a bit. Gives them a little kick. The kids think it is fun to find that potato and cheese inside all warm and gooey. YUM! I think we'll have them tonight....

belairhollyq says "Best for my breast feeding kids" about Playtex Ventaire Baby Bottles

belairhollyq — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 20:38:40 GMT

I breast fed both of my children but returned to work on the 9th week with both. My son rejected a couple different bottles before we got to the ventaires. The wide ones were most like breastfeeding and I assume that was the problem he was having with the other bottles. The air release system allowed the air to escape from the bottle and not get trapped in his tummy. My daughter also had a great experience with them.

I actually never needed the stage one nipples and went right to stage 2 with both kids. Perhaps they were used to working harder with nursing from the breast that they wanted that fast flow bottle.

While it was a little anoying to wash all three parts, it was worth it. Once you got in the rythm of washing...what's an extra piece? All in all a great product.

belairhollyq says "Lacks consistency" about Dunkin' Donuts

belairhollyq — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 16:15:31 GMT

My expereinces with Dunkin Donuts are variable. Some days, my order is perfect. But mosy days, it's off. I am a cream only girl. But half of the time, they cna't get that part right! The cream to coffee ratio will be way off, sugar is added, etc. More often than not, the coffee has a burnt flavor that I can't get past. I have located one DD that seems to be more off the ebaten path and have less trouble with this store. My orders are correct and done quickly vs. others. I switched to Starbucks exclusively for months but am now back to going to both. However, with the economy the way it is, I only go once a wee k now instead of 4-5 times....

belairhollyq says "Perfect Summer beverage" about Starbucks Java Chip

belairhollyq — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 16:08:47 GMT

I love my coffee. I prefer it iced even in the winter. But come summer, this is a perfect beat the heat treat. The icy coolness blended with the coffee plus the extra treat of the chips thrown in is one powerful combination. The best of both worlds for me with my chocolate and coffee combined together. Maybe I'll get one today........

belairhollyq says "I could live off these...." about Starbucks Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin

belairhollyq — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 16:05:02 GMT

These muffins are so amazing. The best part are those sweetly seasoned pumpkin seeds on top. I loved these muffins so much, I set out in search of a recipe I could make at home and found one that comes pretty close. This is one thing that makes me took forward to fall. So yummy. Like pumpkin pie only better!!...

belairhollyq says "Light and easy" about Avon Foundation

belairhollyq — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 20:46:51 GMT

I started using this line about 2 years ago and never went back to the old foundations I used to use. The variations in shade are perfect for finding the shade right for the dead of winter and for my summer tan. I suffer from a skin conditition that leaves little red dots all over my face. This covers evenly without looking caked on since it matches my complexion so well. Wipes off easily with my Noxema wipes. No need for touching up throughout the day either!...

belairhollyq says "Hmmm...did they chage something?" about Pampers Baby Dry

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 16:26:27 GMT

I used these with my first child all the time. When I got to the second, it was if they changed something in the process. I experienced leaks and they didn't fit quite right. I'm going to chalk it up to the differences between a boy and a girl but I cna't be sure. Somehow they feel flimsy and are certainly damp after and all night wear on the outside. I made the switch to Huggies Supremes and never looked back....

belairhollyq says "And I thought we were clean!!" about Dyson DC15 Animal Vacuum

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 16:05:33 GMT

I never thouhg tmuch about vacuums. We were given one for our wedding shower and used it for 4 years never thinking much about it. The bag would fill up and we replaced it. Then we bought the animal. We used it in one room and almost filled the canister! I nearly had a heart attch and immediatly vacuumed the rest of the house empting the canister several more times. The old vacuum had nothing on this bad boy. It's suction pull up more dirt than I could have imagined we were tracking in. With two kids and two dogs, I want to know we are getting clean. Thsi is an amazing product I could not live without. It is well worth the price. We bought ours on a Target special where when you bought, you got a $50 gift card. That was great!! And using the attachments for the stairs makes them quick and easy. ...

belairhollyq says "Clean and beautiful" about Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo and Conditioner

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:56:41 GMT

The shampoo and conditioner are fantastic. Awhile back, someone convinced me to switch to Treseme. About 4 washes in, I switched back to my Herbal Essense. The body, shine and vibrance of my hair were gone with the other stuff. I am back for good and won't switch again. My hair is full, shiny, smells great, looks gorgeous and I get complments all the time. ...

belairhollyq says "great over all product" about Avon Glimmersticks Eyeliner

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:52:24 GMT

The Avon glimmersticks glide on easy and come in a variety of colors. they last all day with no reapplication. I typically line my eyes after applying Avon foundation and poweder. After I line, I reapply a fine layer of powder to keep it from smuding or wearing off. I never have to reapply! This product goes on sale frequently so stock up then. The brow liners also come in a lot of color to match any hair color. The lip liners are also fantastic and can be mixed and matched easily with the array of Avon lip colors available. Great product, value and gift idea....

belairhollyq says "Fantastic trainers" about Huggies Pull Ups with Learning Designs Training Pants

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:48:35 GMT

We started training my daughter about a month ago and these are working great. She has just started telling me she has to go instead of me telling her it's time in the last week. She loves her princess pull ups but is also obsessed with Dora so it's unfortunate Pampers easy ups have the rights to those! I like the Huggies so much better. Less leaking, better fit to her shape, they come up higher on her, great overall product....

belairhollyq says "Great leak protection!!" about Huggies Natural Fit Diapers

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:45:32 GMT

I love Huggies Supremes. With my first, i used Pampers all the time. But then I tried Huggies and never went back. We've had leaks with all other brands. These are great espeically for overnights. We have one potty trained now and one working on it. While we now use pull ups during the day, I still use the supremes overnight to ensure a dry bed in the morning. Great fit, never leaked. Decent price and there are always coupons available. I understand Huggies is raising prices 8-9% come July and I just hope they will not be cutting back on coupons....thanks for a great product!...

belairhollyq says "Perfect for 2 close in age" about Graco Quattro Tour Duo Stroller

belairhollyq — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 15:41:49 GMT

This was a perfect buy for us with kids 22 months a part. Worked fantastic when we had an infant and a toddler. Now our kids are 2 and 4 and the 2 year old ahs to ride in the front becasue she is lighter. It's great for vacations with a lot of walking involved or crowded destinations where we want to keep them seated and buckled. Much better than trying to manuver the side by side type of stroller in crowds. They are both comfy and happy to ride!...

belairhollyq says "Fantastic first step in make-up removal!" about Noxzema Facial Wipes

belairhollyq — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 16:08:51 GMT

I love these. I had ruined several wash cloths by just using regular noxema face wash when removing mascara. By using the noxema wipes first, I'm able to remove all my make-up on a throw away cloth. Everything wipes off quick and easily -mascar, eyeliner, powder, foundation, blush--whatever! I then follow up with a second wash with the Noxema deep cleansing face wash, the anti-acne cleansing pads and the noxema astringent. When I am done, my face is squeaky clean, my pores are breathing and it all feels cool. Plus, my wash cloths look brand new. :)...

belairhollyq says "great value" about Graco Travel System

belairhollyq — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:00:09 GMT

We were very impressed with the versatility of the Graco travel system. I like that additional bases for additional cars were relatively inexpensive. We needed 3 (one for each parents car and one for granddad's) and they were also easy to install. My baby fit snugly into the seat and I was always pleased with their comfort and easy of travel. It wasn't until my baby was close to the 20lb weight cap that it began to be heavy to carry with him inside.
