chstress says "What's old is new again..." about Ocean Spray Cranergy

chstress — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 03:23:54 GMT

As a women, I am a master at multi-tasking, but I often feel exhausted and run on empty most of the time from taking care of my grandchildren, home, and juggling my work and volunteer activities. I often sag mid-afternoon, wondering how in the world I am going to finish the day without falling into bed! So I was more then willing to give this energy drink a whirl!

What's old is new again...

Cranergy is a type of energy drink made of cranberry juice with added green tea extracts and B vitamins.

It is also a natural source of energy; because Ocean Spray added that green tea and B-vitamins; which is very important to me. That also means when partaking of cranenergy drinks you are getting that much more without a lot of sugar, calories, and artificial ingredients that you don't want to put in your body anyway. Best of all, it tastes great and is totally refreshing.

chstress says "Smart, Spiritual, & Sexy" about Beltane

chstress — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 03:15:45 GMT

About the Author:

Erin O'Riordan is a writer who lives in the midwestern United States with her husband. She has written everything from professional basketball to her favorite literary sex scenes in magazines like Clean Sheets to print magazines like Hustler Fantasies. The story about Maman Brigitte inspired Erin's first screenplay, Animal Appetites. Beltane, her first novel, is available from Eternal Press.

About The Book:

Beltane is smart, spiritual, & sexy. The novel is vivid, fast paced, and imaginative. Her interesting characters make Beltane a genuine page turner. Beltane has few wasted words or actions and moves along with magnificent pacing. There are elements of suspense, and O'Riodan has an astonishing ability to, handle stasis without allowing things to stagnate; furthermore she created an element of mystery that drives the story forward. I particulaly enjoy that she has incorporated bits of world mythology and folklore into her book. But be forewarned; the sex...

chstress says "There is always something cooking in my kitchen now!" about A Taste of Home

chstress — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 03:07:30 GMT

This month I have tried lots of new recipes and I can hardly wait for my next magazine. If you love to cook and gather friends and family around your kitchen table as I do ; you might want to check out the new magazine 'Taste of Home'.

What's so unique about Taste of Home is the strong community of cooks who share their recipes and offer glimpses into their own kitchens. Reader recipes are also featured in the magazine . I especially like that you can find messages and 'alive' recipes with chatter inspired by a delicious meal or discovering new tips and tools for my kitchen.

I also love how this magazine is full of inspirational articles and fun tidbits of information. I felt really touched by the article about the woman who lost her first marriage because of her weight. I think it was a message to all women that no matter what your size all that matters is that you are with someone who loves you for who you are, not what size of clothes you wear.

chstress says "When you want more then a PB & J go for a Steakhouse Cheddar " about Kraft Oscar Mayer Deli Creations - Steakhouse Cheddar

chstress — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 02:49:51 GMT

As a busy grammy, it is difficult to find a tasty lunch that I can quickly make and that does not have the letters PB&J involved. While I enjoy PB&J very much it gets boring, so I have loved getting my gather Deli Creation coupons, which sent me further down the aisle to the Oscar Mayer Deli Creations . Oscar Mayer Deli Creations Sandwiches come with everything you need to create your warm deli style sandwich, all in a nifty little box and microwaveable tray, including sub-style bun, shaved lunch-meat, Kraft cheese, sauce, & even a little packet of Kraft Mayo . I am not sure why I would need two condiments, but I appreciate the choice. Each of the pieces come individually wrapped for freshness (although this does create extra waste.) I assembled the sandwich and placed it in the microwave tray. One minute later it was hot, melty, and ready to eat - And yes it was hot! I could have sworn I was at Arby's eating a one of their sandwich's. This Creation was fabulous! The "steakhouse" sauce...

chstress says "Who Says you can't hurry love -Velveeta Shells & Cheese Cups" about Kraft VELVEETA Shells & Cheese Cups

chstress — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 02:40:01 GMT

Who says you can't hurry Love?

Summer will soon be arriving as will a great new product from Kraft

' Velveeta Shells & Cheese Cups'.

Because I am a member of Kraft's first tasters, the Kraft first taste team offered me a chance to taste test this new product.

Velveeta Cheese & Shells of course has the same combination of tasty shell pasta and creamy Velveeta cheese sauce that you have grown to love; only now it will come in single serve cups. All you have to do is add water, and you will be ready to eat in only 3½ minutes. This is a wonderful tasty dish for any on the go person . This delicious cup has certainly appealed to my three year old Grandaughter; who now wants one every day for lunch.

These new Velvetta Shells & Cheese Cups will give you the comfort of home, yet they are made with 2% milk cheese - which is ½ the fat of regular microwaveable shells & cheese.

chstress says "Everything you need is in the box, so that you just don't need a" about Kraft Oscar mayer DELI - CREATIONS Focaccia Sandwiches

chstress — Fri, 01 May 2009 20:43:25 GMT

Kraft's 'Oscar Mayer' brand has expanded its Deli-Creation line. What began with one sandwich line has now broadened to include Focaccia flatbread sandwichs. After receiving my coupons, I went right out and purchased a couple to try

As with the entire Deli-Creations line, the idea is that everything you need is in the box, so that you just don't need anything else in order to have a complete sandwich; and it includes fresh delicious oven-baked herb bread. All of the ingredients came in easy open packages or pouches, and the sandwich then needed to be heated by microwaving it right in the box. The only difference between this variety and the others is that it comes in a smaller package. Perhaps Oscar Mayer is downsizing its packages, but this one is about half the size of the original packaging, and honestly, that's all they need.

These Deli Creations come In four delicious recipes, including Tuscan-Style Chicken , Parmesan Basil Turkey. Steakhouse Beef and Pepper...

chstress says "This looks so much like a real candle, you can hardly tell the d" about Glade Wisp Flameless Candle

chstress — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 02:15:17 GMT

Well it is Bzz Agent time and this time it is the Glade Wisp Flameless Candle

The "Candle"
The Glade Wisp Flameless Candle is a white frosted glass holder that instead of holding a wax candle with a wick, it holds a tiny bottle of fragrance and a small interior light. The fragrance is released continuously with a dial setting on the bottom where you can adjust how much fragrance is released.

Pros Great Scents, Safe...no flame, Looks Very Realistic, Blends With Decor, Good scentCons None

At first I was a bit confused as to how it would work. But the directions were easy to understand. There was no mess & it's very easy to put together. I love the way it looks because it blends into the decor and doesn't look out of place. The glow is very pretty and relaxing. The two scents I got were "clean linen" and "french vanilla" ...they both smell very good. The scent spread throughout my home and it was just enough..not too powerful and not to weak you that you could barely smell it. To turn...
