mom2maddie says "Fuji Digital Camera is easy to use but disappointing" about Fuji - FinePix S8100 Digital Camera

mom2maddie — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 12:32:49 GMT

The photos I've taken with the Fuji Digital Camera S8100 are only average. They are grainy and, sometimes blurred. While the camera is easy to learn and simple to use, I could have achieved the same quality of photos (perhaps even better!) with a point and shoot compact camera. I would not recommend spending your money on this. I wanted the "sports" functionality and zoom and neither has resulted in satisfactory photos.

mom2maddie says "EXTRAORDINARY" about El Tovar - Grand Canyon, South Rim, AZ

With the Grand Canyon view outside your balcony and the integrity of this historic hotel intact, there is no more beautiful place on the South Rim! Our suite had beautiful antique furniture AND two TV's (which made the kids very happy)! The spacious balcony outside our room had a spectacular view of the South Rim! The food was incredible and the piano was perfect for playing board games and meeting new people!

Don't Miss This Phenomenal Hotel!

mom2maddie says "Great Vacation Spot...A Little Worn" about Arizona Grand Resort - Phoenix, AZ

mom2maddie — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 12:59:17 GMT

This resort is in a great location! The waterpark is FUN for adults and kids! The golf course is beautiful. The rooms and restaurants are showing signs of age. I remember this resort from the 1990's and, while spacious, it could use some updating. The staff is VERY accomodating. I just feel it's a little overpriced for it's "age."...

mom2maddie says "GREAT AB and Total Body Workout!" about Turbo Jam Maximum Results Package

mom2maddie — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 12:54:35 GMT

WOW! I've trained for marathons, swim daily, workout on a Tredclimber, practice yoga and Tae Bo. But, Turbo Jam has added an additional dimension to my daily routine! Charlene has GREAT instruction on engaging the abdominal area throughout your workout! I've even taken that direction and applied it to my other routines. The music is great and the participants are fun! The moves are not too difficult (and I've been known to knock furniture over with other workout routines!:)

mom2maddie says "A GREAT Piece of Complete Training!" about Bowflex Treadclimber Treadmill

mom2maddie — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 12:50:21 GMT

We ditched our treadmill for this! And we don't regret it for a moment! This is a tough and complete workout. Carry handweights and the upper body is toning along with the legs!...

She KNOWS her vacation spots and will match your desires with the perfect destination! Penny is flexible and patient:) She even worked through our need to cancel due to a family member's emergency surgery. Penny feels like part of our family...the vacation expert part of our family! I've always arranged our vacations myself. But, now, Penny is our professional planner!...

mom2maddie says "Use EVERYDAY!" about Magic Bullet Blender - High Speed Mixing System

mom2maddie — Fri, 08 Feb 2008 12:10:25 GMT

Making smoothies, salsas, egg/tuna/chicken salad, mixing herbs/spices, grinding coffee beans...I could go on and on with the uses for the Magic Bullet!

We use ours everyday! My husband uses it for his "power smoothies." I use it for, well, ALL of the above! And, our 11 year old daughter loves to mix frozen bananas and chocolate chips in it for a healthier "ice cream."

Worth every cent!
