xoxoxox says "This is fun and turns out great" about Wilton Cupcake Cake Pan

xoxoxox — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 19:46:30 GMT

I made my daughters cake in this and it came out great. A few tips. #1 you technically only need one box of cake mix. Fill both to the half way mark. If you want to add more that is fine. Just make a second box and fill up 2/3's of the way. Use the rest of the batter to make cupcakes or something else. But only one box is necessary.

#2nd tip. Make sure the cake is completely cooled before releasing the cake. Place upside down while cooling. It will automatically release. The first time I did this, I did not let it cool upside down. After shaking and trying to get it to release - it did but it took a very very long time.

If you try and take the cake out while the cake or pan is still warm, your cake will fall apart. It should cool in 1 hour.

Once they are out, place them on top of eachother. I put frosting in the middle of the top and bottom to hold it together and decorated the top only. Enjoy! Looks great!!

xoxoxox says "Panasonic Lumix DMC TZ5" about Panasonic - Lumix DMC-TZ1

AWESOME! There are many versions of this Lumix camera, however, I am loving my TZ5 version. Huge 3" screen on the back. Durable, great lense. Takes amazing photos. Crisp and clear photos.

The one and only downside to this camera in my opinion is the side door where you connect cables for downloading, etc. This door should have been made to not open so easily. Just take care, otherwise you could snap it off. They should have made it with a lock latch similar to the one on the bottom where the battery and memory card go.

Otherwise, great camera! And it looks great too. Not as tiny as some of the digital cameras these days. But with such an awesome lense and digital screen, who cares. Its still a small to mid size camera.

xoxoxox says "Such a great movie! Go see it!" about FIREPROOF

Wow, great movie. This was definitely a heart felt movie. Everything was awesome. It was a high quality movie, great acting, funny, true to life and definitely a tear jerker!

This is a great movie on marriage and one that probably we can all relate. Those who are married can appreciate the struggles that we've gone through being married. I am a Christian and this movie has a clear gospel message and offers biblical principals to saving your marriage. The conversation between dad and son regarding God and God's standards is very powerful. God considers lust to be adultery, hatred to be murder and we have all violated God's standards - His laws, the 10 commandments. Once we see our need for a savior, we can truely begin to save a marriage with sound biblical principles.

I hope you go see it. What a great movie.

xoxoxox says "Love it!!" about Juicy Couture Perfume

xoxoxox — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:34:24 GMT

I love this. When it first came out I got it. Love the scent! I am very picky when it comes to scents. There are tons out there that I dont like. But this is fun, flirty and sweet but not too sweet. I love the bottle too! Totally cute.

I think it kinda wears off a little during the day but upon closer inspection you can still catch the scent on your skin.

xoxoxox says "lighten up" about Southwest Airlines

xoxoxox — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:30:38 GMT

I love Southwest Airlines. It gets me from A to B. Never had any problems with Southwest and even if I had, you must take into consideration weather, circumstances, etc.

Southwest has great prices, they often throw in some humor prior, during the flight. So long as the aircraft is safe and gets me to my destination, I'm happy.

xoxoxox says "Comfy at first..." about Serta Pillowtop Mattress

xoxoxox — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:25:43 GMT

Great bed.... totally comfy.... but...

... after the first few nights, the pillowtop is not your best bet!! I used to love sleeping on my stomach at times, with the pillow top it is very uncomfortable. At times it is even painful no matter what position you are in. I'm not one to be very picky about beds or anything but the pillow makes it hard to get confortable. Great idea at first but in actuality not the best thing for your body. I would recommend the next step down. I believe the Danford is the next step down. Has the same quality but without the pillowtop. If I ever replace this bed, which I intend after some time, I will be getting the Danford instead.

On a positive note, there have been times when it is comfortable and for some it may be the perfect bed. Just for my husband and I, we notice a big difference with the pillowtop that in retrospect we would not have gotten.

xoxoxox says "Love it - My only baking pan!" about Pampered Chef Large Round Baking Stone - 1370

xoxoxox — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:08:56 GMT

I love it.

Heats quickly and bakes evenly. Your cookies or pizza's or whatever you bake will not burn on the bottom. Metal tend to get hotter and then burns the bottoms if you are not careful.

Stoneware is great!

One tip... never put frozen food on the stone ware and put it in the oven. You will crack your stone. Make sure your "frozen" food has been defrosted or thawed out - closer to room temp before putting on the stone and directly into the oven. Extreme temperature changes will cause your stone to crack. (I learned the hard way...)
