katrinathegreat says "good quality clothing for children, great prices." about The Children's Place

katrinathegreat — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:51:27 GMT

I love shopping for clothing for my children and The Childrnes Place online. They have great deals, stylish clothing and a good selection of quality clothing. They are always having sales and good deals on the sale items. I am a busy person with small children and the ability to shop online and have the items delivered to me at my door step makes the experience even better. I would recomend this site to anyone with children....

katrinathegreat says "Always good to have on hand" about Lipton Onion Recipe Soup & Dip Mix

katrinathegreat — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:45:33 GMT

I love Lipton Onion Recipe Soup and Dip Mix. I always keep these on hand. I love to make dip using the onion soup mix and a container of light sour cream, great for dipping chips and veggies in! Onion soup mix makes a great base flavor for many different kinds of soups, makes a great flavoring for beef roasts, also great on baked red potatoes, mix a little olive oil, red potatoes and onion soup mix together, bake in the oven, and you have some tastey little potatoes (reipe on the back of the box). I usually buy the bulk packages at costco to save some money and always have a few boxes of Liptioin Onion Soup and Dip mix in my pantry....

katrinathegreat says "Great prices, great quality clothing" about Old Navy

katrinathegreat — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:38:48 GMT

I love shopping at oldnavy.com!!! The prices are great, especially when the are having sales or you shop the clearance section. I purchase clothing for my self for work wear and casual wear, as well as purchase clothing for my children from old navy. The quality of the clothing is really nice for the price of the clothing. When you sign up for news letters they email you to inform you of any sales going on and secret savings codes. Also, 7 dollar shipping flat rate, that a good deal if you make large purchases. The customer service has been a pleasent experience in exchanging items over the phone....

katrinathegreat says "Nice car" about Honda LX - 2004

katrinathegreat — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:32:43 GMT

I bought my honda when I was pregnant with my first child five years ago. I traded in an older honda accord for a new one because the new one had all the updated safety devices (ie child seat safety latches). I enjoy my car. Its easy to drive, get good gas mileage, has held up well with no mechanical problems. The only problem i have had with it is the gas tank pressure monitor. I tighten down the gas tank cap every time after getting gas, and a few miles down the road it some how becomes loose and causing my check engine light to come on. Its a comfortable car to drive and ride in, a little more road noise gets into the car that I would like, but overall its a great, safe reliable vehicle for a good price....

katrinathegreat says "can't live with out it" about A.1 steak sauce

katrinathegreat — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:24:18 GMT

I love A-1 steak sauce. I have loved it since i was a small child. It has a thick bold flavor that adds to most meat dishes and bbq sauces. It goes well on steaks of all kinds, chicken, hot dogs, pork, baked beans, the possiblities are endless, even my toddler loves to dip his food in it. My fridge is never withour this condiment!...

katrinathegreat says "Still a good entertaing show, but needs some refreshing." about Kitchen Nightmares

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:30:18 GMT

I was in love with this show for the first few seasons. Its not as good as it used to be because they dont do a whole lot to change up the show each season. Its still fun to watch how Gordon interacts and reacts with the contestants but just not as great as used to be. This show needs some new ideas to keep it going....

katrinathegreat says "Didnt care for it" about The Next Great American Band

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:24:37 GMT

To me, at a time when American Idol is getting old and overdone, to throw in another reality show where people are competing for musical abilities was just too much. Although it is different in that its a whole band as opposed to one person, it was just boring and old news for me. sorry, didn't like it, watched about two episodes and that was more than enough....

katrinathegreat says "Always a suprise" about The Bachelor

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:20:26 GMT

Its always a surprise to see who the bachelor picks to send home. I enjoy watching the romancing they do and all the changes the relationships go through. Sometimes I feel broken hearted for the girls who were really into the bachelor and they get sent home, then you have the girls who aren't there for the right reason and your sitting on the edge of your seat waiting to see them get the boot. This show is a good chick flick, the only thing in it for the guys is seeing all the beautiful girls running around is small amounts of clothing.

katrinathegreat says "This show is getting old, it needs some changing to get me again" about American Idol- Season 7

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:14:35 GMT

I still believe there are very tallented people on this show, but season after season its all the same and its getting to be very boring. I enjoy the first few weeks where they show all the goofy people with horrible voices and the last few shows where it gets all dramatic and they pick a winner. Other than that its just over done now. This show needs some major changes if its going to stay around for another season....

katrinathegreat says "Can Not Miss An Eppisode! " about Dirty Sexy Money

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:09:52 GMT

I am sooo addicted to this show. I can't wait for it to start up again. It keeps my attention... waiting to see what happens next and to who. The characters are so colorful and different from any other show on right now. Its in my top two favorite show to watch and I always make time for it....

katrinathegreat says "Always watching" about Grey's Anatomy

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 22:06:03 GMT

I love this show. I make sure I have everything done and the kids to bed before the show comes on so I can sit down and watch the show with no interuptions! It keeps my attention and keeps me coming back for more. I like the mixture of characters and how the friendships keep changing. I. If you really pay attention the show has some life lessons in there that we can all learn from, ie make time for your loved ones in your life, show those who you care about just how much you love them, etc....

katrinathegreat says "Family friendly" about Brooks Ranch - Atwater, CA

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:57:47 GMT

This is a family friendly place to take the kids to eat a nice hot meal at. It has a warm atmosphere with friendly staff. The food is good and the price is just right. Its in a great location close to stores and shopping centers. The menu offers a nice selection and the meals are good portions.

katrinathegreat says "Handy little tool for a quick clean up." about As Seen On TV Swivel Sweeper for Floors Vacuum

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:49:33 GMT

This is great for a quick little pick up. Its good for cleaning up little messes or skimming the top of the carpets. My favorite place to use it is in the kitchen and laundry room. It dosen't pick up well enough to substitute a full size vacuume cleaner. I also like to take it along in our camping trailer since it's battery holds its charge for quite a while. It is great on smooth srufaced floors but on tile it has a hard time reaching between the tiles to get loose dirt out of the grout lines. Its handy to have around, but not a must have....

katrinathegreat says "Love my dyson!" about Dyson Vacuum - DC18 - Slim All Floor

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:41:47 GMT

I have had my dyson for a while now, and I wouldn't trade it for any other vacuume. I love it! I have two small kids and two cats and it cleans up after them all with such ease. I love all the different attatchements it comes with, makes cleaing cat hair off the furniture so much easier and getting all the nooks and crannies clean too. Easy to use, easy to empty and holds up pretty well. Well worth the price!...

katrinathegreat says "Easy to use." about Magellan - Roadmate 2000 GPS Device

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:34:32 GMT

Sooo very easy to use and understand. I have used one is the past that after messing with it trying to up in my destination, I ended up with a big headache, frustrated and no directions. This one is simple and a delight. The voice makes driving safer, no need to look down at a map or directions, just listen for the voice and you are given advance notice of your next turn giving you plenty of time to change lanes etc.

katrinathegreat says "I wont spend my money on any other diapers." about Target Brand Diapers

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:20:21 GMT

I have bought the more expensive brands like Pampers, Huggies and a few others. The store brand ones from target perform just as well if not better than the name brand ones and are by far less expensive. Why spend the extra money on diapers that are going to end up in the trash in a matter of hours when Target's diapers are just as good? I have had no problems with "leaking" with both my girl and boy, and the tabs stick really well. A great value for your money.

katrinathegreat says "I recomend this monitor to everyone!" about Summer Infant Day & Night Handheld Color Video Monitor 1.8" Screen

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 21:08:48 GMT

I bought this monitor after having my second baby and wished I had spent the money and bought one when I had my first baby! It is wonderful to be able to see you baby in their crib and not have to open the door to peek and risk wakeing baby up. The picture is great in day and night mode. The volume can be turned up really loud if you are a heavy sleeper and it has a battery saving mode where the screen goes black to reserve power if you have in unplugged from the outlet. I love it!!! Now I dont have to guess what the sound is coming from babies room, is he jumping or struggling? I can look at the monitor and know he is ok without having to open the door and cause a temper tantrum....

katrinathegreat says "Holds up great, looks very nice." about Eddie Bauer Natural Wood High Chair

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 20:59:21 GMT

I love this high chair. Its now being used by my second child. This chair is only good for children who sit up on thier own and support thier own weight. Its not good for infants. That being said... It has held up really well, still in great shape. The seat cover still looks nice. Its relativley easy to clean, I just take it outside, hose it down and scrub it with a brush every few months. Othe than that just use a spongue or wash cloth for daily clean up and toss the seat cover in the washing machine as neeeded....

katrinathegreat says "Nice car seat that holds up well." about Eddie Bauer Elite 3-in-1 Car Seat

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 20:51:55 GMT

I bought this car seat when for my daughter who now is 4. She was born premature and at 6 pounds, I didnt feel that this car seat supported her well even though it states that its for 5-100 pounds. It propered her too far forward. I had to buy a second car seat that would recline back farther and also had a detachable base, making it easy to take a tiny baby in and out and carry her around. Its great for older children 9months and older. It has held up really well, still looks nice and I feel confident that my child is safe in this seat. I would recomend this to anyone for a child that is 9months or older.

katrinathegreat says "The only litter I buy!" about Arm & Hammer Kitty litter

katrinathegreat — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 20:19:35 GMT

I have used Arm & Hammer Litter for over a year now and its the only litter I will buy. Its best for keeping the scent down, not sticking to cats feet, and works well with my automatic litter box. I am a fan of most any Arm & Hammer product and their litter stands up to the name in my opinion. I would recomend it to anyone....
