tinytina says "Outstanding coffee every single time." about Philips Senseo HD7810/95 5-Cup Coffee Maker

tinytina — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 20:48:17 GMT

This is the best coffee maker ever! We use it in conjunction with the Senseo Pods (about $3.50 for 10) and the coffee is delish! It even creates a foamy top on the coffee to give it the cappucino effect. We previously owned a different brand of Pod machine and this one takes the cake by far. You can't beat the convienence of having a delicious hot cup of coffee in 60 seconds, and with the pods there is no measuring or gritty grounds in your coffee. They make several different flavors, and our favorite is the Sumatra Blend. Highly reccomended!

To the reviewers that expressed a concern about the cost of the pods- a bag of 10 costs around $3.50, making it 35 cents a cup. Thats a WHOLE lot cheaper than you will get at any coffee house, and the coffee is better IMHO!

tinytina says "Like a wonderful step back in time" about The Pier Hotel - St Petersburg, FL

The Pier Hotel is my favorite hotel in the world! It is very close to everything. The first time we stayed there we went to a concert at Jannus landing. It's literally a 5 minute walk from there. They offer a free wine & beer happy hour every day from 5-7. That alone made the room worth the cost to us! The hotel is gorgeous and has been beautifully restored. Our room had a claw foot tub and was so cute! The staff really went above and beyond to accomodae us. We love this hotel and would highly reccomend it to anyone!...

tinytina says "Great for quitting smoking- but Major side effects!" about CHANTIX

tinytina — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 04:25:24 GMT

My husband and I went on Chantix in early August. We followed the regimin carefully and were successfully able to put the ciggarettes down on the 8th day. This product is alomst a miracle for quitting smoking. You can go through the day with no nicotine whatsoever and not really stress about it. Basically, it made me forget that I ever smoked, and works great for smoking cessation.

Unfortunately, DH and I had to quit taking these pills after about 6 weeks due to the side effects. The nausea was unreal, everytime we took the pill we were sick for at least an hour afterwords. DH actually expererienced some vomiting from it. I was late for work a lot because I would take my pill first thing, and have to lie down or dry heave for a while. The time I took it before leaving the house I had to pull over as I was too nauseas to drive! Also, one thing that drove us crazy was the constipation. It was sooo bad for both of us (not trying to be gross- just forewarning you. Be prepared to become......

tinytina says "The best coffee maker ever!" about Philips Senseo Espresso Machine

tinytina — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 04:15:21 GMT

We love our Senseo machine! Prior to purchasing this about 5 months ago, we owned a Melitta one:one machine. The melitta was okay, but the Senseo is awesome! It heats up in a flash and never fails to deliver a fresh delicious cup of coffee Another big perk is the pods for the machine are readily available and inexpensive. I have had 4 friends purchase this machine because they love mine so much!...

tinytina says "The best place on earth!" about Walt Disney World - Orlando, FL

tinytina — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 04:08:55 GMT

Walt Disney world is amazing! Between the 4 theme parks, 2 water parks, the countless resorts and more you'll never run out of things to do. I personally have been over 200 times (I'm an annual passholder) and find something new to do everytime I go back. If you are looking fir dining, Epcot is the place for you! You have your choice of 12 different countries in which to dine, from France to Mexico! Each one is elaborately themed and very concise in detail. My personal favorite is the Bier Garten restaurant in Germany. All in all, Walt Disney world is amazing. There is something for everyone there....

tinytina says "One word- Awesome!" about Sharky's on the Pier - Venice, FL

tinytina — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 04:00:16 GMT

Sharky's is absolutely beautiful! Great food, cold drinks, live music, and right on the beach! When we went there I had smoked fish spread and crab legs. Everything was to die for. The service was very very good too. Also, don't forget to bring your poles, the fishing pier is feet away from the restaurant. Our very picky friends came along and loved everything too. Highly reccomended for anyone....

tinytina says "Lots of fun, great deal for the price" about Carnival Cruise Lines - Inspiration

tinytina — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 03:54:28 GMT

We went on the 5 day western carribbeean cruise for our honeymoon in May and loved it. There are great options for dining and entertainment. They have a sushi bar open from 4-6pm that is amazing. The ports of call were awesome. In Grand Cayman, Stingray city is a once in a lifetime adventure, and in Cozumel we spend the day being waited on hand and foot on Paradise Beach, the most beautiful beach we have ever seen. The formal night was a blast- the lobster was absolutely amazing and the captains cocktail party was a lot of fun. Overall, we very much enjoyed our cruise and for the price, you really can't beat it....
