Try another...

I was sold.  There is not much I do not like about my MINI.  — People say it is bouncy...I use to have a Honda CRX and do not notice this.  People say it does not have enough room in the backseat... I am a single mother of one I rarely need a back seat, and when I do it is functional.  Plus it folds down to be a full hatch back... great for hauling coolers to the beach or luggage on a road trip.  People say this or that... I say I LOVE MY MINI ! — One Caveat, I live in Green Bay, WI and service facility is in Milwaukee, WI 2 hours away.  I agree with their philosophy of not selling them everywhere... but what about service availability in more places???  Thanks god I know a good mechanic locally... once the 3 year service deal was done, I can easily take it to someone I trust locally. —...

OMG ! ! !  It was to die for.  I had two (ok 3) and want more!  Then we ordered a few sides to nible on... the deep fried asparagus with lemon butter was incredible... but so were the french fried sweet potatos... — The next trip to Chicago I decided to bring my 3 Auntie and my Mom there for dinner, again post-shopping spree.  We all had bone-in filets and salads and some sides.  It was incredible and the serive was outstanding.  We were treated like we were the only ones the waiter had to take care of.  — Now let me talk dessert... I choose Boston Cream Pie... OMG!!!  I crave it to this...

Before we entered, I gazed at this huge blue and gold building and thought WOW... then Amy said this " We need to decide how long we will shop before we go in... What time do you want to leave by?"  I looked at her like she was crazy... WHAT? A time limit?... I thought she was nuts. — We went in and spent 5 hours and spent about $150.00/hour... I guess that is what she meant,  I recalled as we stuffed my Mini Cooper to the rim with our prizes.  It was quite an experiences!!! — First off there are 3 floors to prowl.  2 of the floors have the merchandise displayed as it would look in an home, apartment or dorm.  It was awesome to see the unique storage ideas, colors and decor. ...

A year after the death of one wife, the guy needs to remarry for insurance money purposes... And friendship turns into a marriage... — This movie had me and everyone around me laughing out-loud.  It was a comedy and true friendship story that was put together perfectly.  My favorite part was the actual marriage of Chuck and Larry.  The "preacher" kept talking about "a Circle" ... precious... my boyfriend and I quote him to this day... "it's like a circle..." — Truly a quirky movie, but I caution it being a 'family' movie... funny YES... Family nite approval...NO —...

I can whip one up right into the cup I drink from.  Then whip one up for my son just as quick and easy. — It's so simple!  All you do is fill the "cup" or blender portion with fruit of all kinds (my favorite is banana and strawberry) then add orange juice 1/2 way and the rest add milk.  Oh toss in 2 ice cubes too... Whip it up and YUM. — It is so easy that my 9 year old son has been making them for years with minimal help from me.  What a better way to get my child to consume fruits.  He thinks they taste great and I know they are good for him.  — The Magic Bullet can be purchased with different size "blender" compartments:  Drinking glass size about 12 oz and 6 oz.  A traditional blender compartment, a strainer for juicing, and 4 drinking mugs.  The mugs are awesome for making customized margaritas or slushie drinks for your parties.  — The other bonus is...
