laword22 says "Maytag refrigerator great capacity for a medium size fridge" about Maytag MTB2156GE

laword22 — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 15:58:58 GMT

What I like best about my Maytag MTB2156GE Refrigerator is that the inside is so easy to reconfigure to hold extra large items....like a huge pizza or a whole turkey dinner with all of the fixings. Also the shelves on the door can be raised and lowered to hold the tallest of wine bottles. The lowest shelve holds beer or water bottles perfectly and is easy access. I used to use two refrigerators to hold all of the items that this one can store on its own. I never have trouble with items getting too cold in the refrigerator compartment (if they get shoved way to the back on the lower shelves). The freezer keeps things nice and frozen and yet the ice cream is not too rock hard to scoop. I have never had an item get freezer burn and there is never a large frost build-up in the items in bags. The wheels work easily to move the unit to clean underneath. I enjoy having the luxury of the ice-cube maker. This is a very practical, well made refrigerator that is adjustable and...

laword22 says "Nikon Coolpix L1 turned me into a digital photo fan" about Nikon - COOLPIX L1 Digital Camera

laword22 — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 18:09:13 GMT

The Nikon Coolpix L1 was a gift from my husband who has very expensive and complicated taste in cameras. This camera was to be all mine and SIMPLE. Well, I have to admit it was easy to run right from the start but it also has features if you want to get technical...you can go to it. I have taken some beautiful photos with my camera...some that rival those taken on my husband's more expensive more pixelated model. This camera is small enough to put in my purse so I can bring it wherever I go. I can easily download the photos onto my compputer and share them with my friends and relatives within seconds of taking them. (This from a person who used to have film in her camera for a year before developing it) Another good feature is that I do not have photo "clutter" with this camera. I put the good ones on my computer or on a disc or get prints (only of the good photos). Do you have boxes of old photos (mostly out of focus or just bad pictures) that you still haven't gotten around...

laword22 says "imac really made me a computer lover" about Apple iMac Desktop Computer

laword22 — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 17:37:46 GMT

We purchased an iMac and at first I had to admit it was hard for me...a computer challenged person who had finally learned how to e-mail and to go on the web to change in any way. I have to admit however, that once I got used to closing on the upper left instead of the upper right that I was in love. This computer lets you goof and live to e-mail another day. I also have become adept at downloading my digital photos and e-mailing those. It is so much easier to edit and crop photos on the iphoto program than the several others we had on our old pc. Also the computer downsizes your photos with one click instead of several steps( that I had to write down to remember) on the pc. I even made a calendar on my computer using family photos (no excuse for forgetting my birthday NOW!). For my next project I would like to make a book. Aside from being the best computer EVER, the Apple has one more feature that is remarkable....that is the Apple Store where you can go in person and...

laword22 says "Garnier Skin renew anti puff eye roller cool and soothing" about Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti Puff Eye Roller

laword22 — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 15:32:34 GMT

I tried Garnier skin Renew Anti-puff Eye Roller during a promotion when the product was first introduced. I keep coming back to use it because it is the only under eye product that I have tried that actually feels as if it is de-puffing the undereye area. It feels very cold and soothing when you roll it on. There is the feeling that the roller actually moves some of the congestion from under my eyes and into my sinus system enabling it to drain down my throat (gosh that sounds graphic!) The beautiful, young actress they use in the commercial (is it Diane Ladd?) has 0 undereye puffing compared to me. I am not saying that I end up looking perfect (like her) but I am saying that it feels as if it is working (drainage) it feels cool and soothing, and I do think it helps with the circulation in that area gives a better "look" after use. It is definitely worth trying. I wish it were available back when I was 30. I think this puffiness definitely increases with age and if you...

laword22 says "Redken Body Full conditioner the finishing touch for great hair" about Redken Body Full Conditioner 8.5 oz

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 23:02:54 GMT

Redken Body Full Conditioner is absolutely the BEST conditioner I have ever used. I usually try to find the most inexpensive product to use to stay within my budget but with my hair I cannot. There is such a vast difference in the texture, condition, fullness and shine of my hair when I use this product versus when I do not that I must spend a little more for the results I want. Actually, in the long run, it probably doesn't cost more than the store or bargain brand because I don't need to use very much of the product at a time for it to work beautifully. Using Redken Body Full makes every day a good hair day. That's saying a lot for fine, limp hair like mine! The scent of this product is very subtile and fresh and it will not compete with your perfume either. I highly recommend that you give Redken Body Full Conditioner a try for fuller, more beautiful hair.

laword22 says "Redken Body Full Shampoo don't leave home without it" about Redken Body Full Shampoo

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 22:32:03 GMT

My hair and I have tried many shampoos but Redken Body Full truly makes a vast difference in how my hair looks and behaves. When I go on vacation without my Redken, I usually suffer through many bad hair days until I can locate my favorite shampoo again. I really should learn that it is just irreplaceable. Those of you out there with FINE hair know my pain. This product really adds volume to my hair and makes it much easier to style. It adds volume without giving the ends that "fried look" that some of the stripping volume-giving shampoos can. It keeps my hair healthy and full....not an easy task for my limp hair. I would recommend this product to anyone who has fine hair and would like to feel real fullness without frizz. It is well worth the price because it is very concentrated and a small amount goes a long way.

laword22 says "Southwest is my airline of choice" about Southwest Airlines

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 22:15:41 GMT

Southwest Airline is by far the easiest airline to travel on. Their web site is so easy to navigate to purchase tickets. If you need to change your flight there is no charge AND you can buy just a one-way ticket with no penalty charges. This is the most user-friendly airline there is. There are no surprise luggage charges either. When I fly Southwest I almost feel like I am part of the crew because they assume that you can quickly sit down in a seat of your own choice and get your over head bags up and down quickly as well. The crew and captain have a good sense of humor and they usually land early! Fly Southwest if you you want a great value and peanuts too!

laword22 says "Maytag Dishwasher cleans quietly but completely" about Maytag Dishwasher - Quiet Series 200

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 22:06:59 GMT

I love my Maytag Dishwasher! I can run it while the family watches t.v. in the same great room and here no complaints about the noise!! I does a nice job of cleaning. I also like the pause feature in case I want to add one more item. The capacity is really large and the plates etc. do not bang into each other during washing. I even do my fine china in it because I can use the air dry feature that leaves my Platinum edges in mint condition. This is by far the best dishwasher I have owned.

laword22 says "In Her Shoes.......Go see it with your sister" about In Her Shoes 2005

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 21:54:22 GMT

The movie "In Her Shoes" is one of those films that you don't mind seeing over and over. It touches upon some very serious topics...from suicide to reading disorders... but still manages to bring smiles to your face throughout the movie...as well as some tears. The cast is remarkable. I love the spirit of the senior citizens in the movie. The nursing home scenes where the English Professor helps Maggie overcome her reading issues are very moving. This is a very soulful movie about the love of a grandmother, mother, and two daughters and how they help each other live and prosper. Bring your tissues...in a good way.

laword22 says "must love this dog" about Marley & Me: The Movie

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 21:39:59 GMT

Marley and Me was a very enjoyable movie. Sometimes when you go to a movie there is not much to it beyond the trailers you have already seen. With Marley and me that was not the case. It went beyond the cute scenes where Marley is destroying the house to the gut feelings we have about the dogs we own. Anyone who has ever loved a dog would relate to the feelings in this movie. The cast did an excellent job portraying how a dog can creep into our heart and stay forever. I was expecting to go home sad after this one but instead I was reminded of the great dogs I have loved and said good bye to.

laword22 says "Honda s2000 a honey of a sports car" about Honda S2000 - ---

laword22 — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 21:31:07 GMT

The Honda S2000 is a terrific ride!! I enjoy driving it more than any other sports car I have owned. It hugs the road with the best of them. The seats are extremely comfortable. It has plenty of go and is easy on gas as well. The stick shift is close coupled and smooth. The trunk space is very good. I made sure this car would hold my golf clubs before I purchased it. They fit like a glove. The body is classic sports car all the way. I highly recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for a fun but practical classy sports car.

laword22 says "orange essence facial cleanser..refreshing and gentle" about Burt's Bees Everything I've used

laword22 — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 13:23:38 GMT

Burt's Bees Orange Essence Facial Cleanser is very refreshing but does not irritate my sensitive skin. It removes make-up extremely well and is still a gentle cleanser. I love the natural scent and good for your skin ingredients. I would recommend this product to anyone who would like to use a 100% natural product or to anyone who likes the feel of clean, smooth, moisturized skin. I am able to use this product every night with no itching or redness at all.

I follow up with Marshmallow vanishing creme every night while my skin is still moist. The cream goes on thick but absorbs into my skin quickly and smells soooo delicious. I also love Burt's Replenishing lip balm which is tinted enough to wear solo. Makes lips very happy and tastes good too....

laword22 says "Genie granted our wish for a great garage door opener" about Genie Genie H 4000 Garage door Opener

laword22 — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 17:36:26 GMT

Prior to the Genie product we had a different make garage opener which the builder had installed in our garage. It stopped working and It would have been so expensive to repair that my husband got disgusted and said let's just get a new one. The Clerk at Home Depot recommended Genie to us and we are so glad he did! This garage door opener is quiet and very smooth running. It has a good range so that you can have the door all opened before you get to the edge of the driveway. My husband lubricated the opener last week on her first anniversary and I can say it is still working as nicely as the day we put it up. Yes, that's the best part of this story. My husband and I put the Genie up one Saturday morning one year ago. I read the directions and laid out and identified the parts and he did the attaching and screwing in of the opener. I have to say that those were about the best set of directions I have ever followed. Every step was color coded and bagged in different colored plastic...

laword22 says "Waring Pro make professional waffles at home" about Waring Waffle Maker - Pro Professional Belgian Waffle Maker

laword22 — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 17:17:10 GMT

My husband fell in love with this product while we were vacationing. the motel where we stayed had a "make-you-own-waffle" station at the buffet breakfast bar. He had such fun making waffles with just a flip of the Waring Pro Wafflemaker. They came out absolutely perfect every time. I was over- joyed to find the unit for sale in the home section of our local department store. It think it was the best Christmas present he has received in a while. Whenever we have company they all get to have "Dad's" famous waffles. This product practically runs on its own. There is even a signal that sounds to tell you the waffles are ready. It is a great machine! It is easy to clean up with just a rub of a paper towel or sponge when the unit has cooled down.

laword22 says "Garmin 680 and I... don't leave home without it" about Garmin - Nuvi 680

laword22 — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 17:02:57 GMT

Just visited New York City with our new Garmin 680. She (we like to think of our Nuvi unit as a she..with a very sweet voice by the way) got us to our shopping spot, a broadway show, a great restaurant and out of the city with such ease we couldn't believe it. Usually, my husband has to hop out of the car to ask directions from the cab drivers (please don't try that, you people out there!). This trip all we had to do was tap that cute little screen and off we'd go. We love how it tells you which lane to get into before all turns and exits. I love how it will re-route you if you can't get over in traffic and have to miss a turn. Talk about taking the stress out of driving. I am really looking forward to using it on my next shopping excursion. It really is like having a very good navigator sitting in the passenger seat telling you where to turn and which lane to get into. Also Nuvi never misses a turn (unlike your best friend who can sometimes get talking and forget to tell you...

laword22 says "Tom's of Maine Natural Spearmint Mouthwash painlessly refreshes" about Tom's of Maine Natural Mouthwash, Spearmint

laword22 — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:10:25 GMT

Wow! I just read the other reviews on this product and I couldn't disagree more! This product has a terrific taste. It isn't sicky sweet with artificial sweeteners or mediciney like the traditional "yellow"mouthwash we used as kids. The flavor is a natural taste of mint just like REAL spearmint leaves from the garden. It makes your tongue and gums feel fresh and healthy and I find I am able to swish the product in my mouth for more minutes because there is absolutely NO BURN. The taste of spearmint is really evident after you remove the mouthwash from your mouth. It's just a fresh, nice comfortable good smelling taste that hits you. If you like natural products anre happy kicking your sweet habit you will LOVE this mouthwash....

laword22 says " safe if swallowed gentle natural care for teeth and gums" about Tom's of Maine Natural Whole Care orange-mango toothpaste

laword22 — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 15:47:32 GMT

Tom's of Maine Orange Mango Toothpaste tastes great and there are no bad ingredients in case children swallow a little by mistake. Nice clean feel and quite refreshing. It doesn't irritate my gums the way some other products do. I like the idea of supporting an independant company that cares about using natural, healthy ingredients that are actually good for you. It is so important to maintain your dental health and now Tom has a delicious tasting, natural way to maintain a clean refreshed mouth. A healthy product from a respected company you can trust. ...
