Father’s Day

Tomorrow is the first day of June! You know that Father’s Day is just around the corner…June 17th to be exact. Shop early and find the perfect gift. Here are a few unique items that I found:

• The American Tailgater – This site has so many unique items! My husband has the magnetic coozie and uses it all of the time. He sticks it to the grill, his lawnchair, the refrigerator, and anything else that it will stick to. It is truly one of his favorite things that we have given him. Another cool product from The American Tailgater is the Ring Bottle Opener. Your guy can just wear this ring on his finger and never have to look for an opener! For only $9.95 it will quickly become his favorite piece of jewelry (after his wedding ring of course).

• Sippin’ Seat - In keeping with the ice cold beverage theme I am proud to introduce you to the Papa Bert’s World Famous Sippin’ Seat. Every likes a nice comfy stadium seat when they watch a ball game…but a beverage comes in handy too. Papa Bert has solved the problem. This ultra comfy stadium cushion will hold 3 cans of your favorite drink inside of it. My husband fills his with water and even takes it hunting (he has the camo one). They come in many cool colors and are on sale now for only $29.99!

• Dirty Dog Shaving Kit – This ultra hip shaving kit will make your guys face super smooth and rash free! It comes with 5 unique products and complete instructions for the best shave your man has ever seen. I have the Bikini Kitty Kit and can’t begin to tell you how well these products work.

• Light Affection – This company has a patent pending totally awesome way of taking your photograph and putting it in a lighted frame. Here is how the web sit describes the process, We start with a piece of an extremely durable material with somewhat of a marble feel to it. The piece is then carved, based on the photograph you send us (the original photograph isn’t damaged). Due to its translucent nature, holding the piece to the light will create an illusion of a Photo. The carving process itself, for each Light Affection piece, takes a few hours. Let me tell you…the piece that arrived at my house is beautiful! It is a a masterpeice…and for only $39.95. This will be the gift that everyone is talking about!

• Pint Pal – There is nothing better than eating ice cream right out of the pint container…until now! The Pint Pal is a neoprene coozie that holds a pint of icecream. This product is genius! Now your ice cream stays cold, your hand stays warm, and your guy stays happy. Each pint pal is only $2.75 – what a great gift this would be with his favorite ice cream.

• The Gorillapod – This bendy little tri-pod will secure your camera to pretty much everything. The flexible legs can wrap around anything. This is a great gift for a dad who is always snapping pictures…now he can get in the photos! You can pick one up for as low as $21.95.
  

• Jonny Glow – Sometimes its nice to give a gift that has a hidden benefit for yourself. The Jonny Glow is a set of glow in the dark strips that you place on your toilet. Your man can see where he is going at night without turning on the lights, you can tell if he has been there (not fall in) without turning on the lights. Everybody wins! Only $12.95.

Be unique…celebrate Father’s Day by giving the perfect gift!

Pain in the Neck.

I have done something terribly wrong to my neck. It hurts from the base of my head all the way down to my lower back. I can’t turn to the right or really move much at all. Its so bad that it is swollen. Don’t know what happened or when. What I do know is that throughout your day to day life you use your neck a lot! Here is what I wish I had”

• Retro Ice Bag – At least I could look cool while icing my neck. For $13 it sure beats a bag of frozen peas.

• The Knobble – Oh, I bet this would feel sooooo good.

• Leather Massage Chair – OMG…if only I had an extra $4,799 laying around.

I’m sorry, I actually can’t even sit at the computer any longer! If you don’t hear from me tomorrow it is because I am in traction.

Sunday.

What a great Sunday today will be! After Church we are going to a Pool Party in our neighborhood. My kids are so excited! I don’t think I will be getting in the water…it usually takes me until July before I can stand the temperature of the water. I know, I’m a wimp!

Here are a few pool ideas:

• Floating Jellyfish Pool Lights – I think these lights would look really cool in a pool at night. The tentacles glow all kinds of pretty colors.

• Motorized Bumper Car Pool Floats – How much fun would this be?

• The Cannon Ball – Make sure you win the prize for the biggest splash!

All About Alli

Have you heard about the new weight loss drug by GlaxoSmithKline called Alli? It has been receiving a lot of hype recently due to its release to the public on June 15th. It’s the first over-the-counter weight loss drug to win FDA approval, and apparently it works. How well does it work? If you follow the directions and you should be able to get your dress size down from a 12 to a 10 in no time. Make sure you read the fine print! If not, you may be changing your dress for other reasons (embarrassing ones). The potential downside to this new miracle pill can be traumatic. If you don’t follow the directions properly you could suffer from annoying intestinal problems, such as oily leakages, flatulence and lots of urgent trips to the potty. Glaxo recommends that you start the program on a weekend, and stay close to home. Yikes! To avoid these unfortunate consequences of Allie you must follow the rules…consume no more than 15 grams of fat per meal and maintain an exercise program. If you do you should lose 50% more weight over a six month period with Allie. Glaxo maintains that the pills will work, but consumers must be educated on Allie. Demand is expected to be very high when they hit the stores in June. You can purchase a starter kit for around $50. This contains 60-capsules (you need to take 3 pills each day), a food journal, a healthy eating guide and a reference manual. You should only take Allie for a six month period. Books on using Allie as a diet plan have already hit the stores! You will be able to purchase Allie at Target, Wal-Mart, CVS, and many other stores. Make sure to check out the web site if you are interested in this new diet phenom. If you do choose to partake in Allie I have a few products that you may want to invest in:

• Urban Aid: Oops Kit – Keep this handy kit with you for when you have the occasional “oily leakage”. It contains an extra pair of underwear! You gotta be prepared.

• Just a Drop: Odor Neutralizer- Just put one drop of this into the toilet bowl before you go….98% of the odors will be eliminated. Remember, while using Allie you will experience frequent bathroom visits. Why should everyone else suffer?

• Sudoku Toilet Paper – Face it…you are going to be running for the bathroom – no time to grab something to entertain yourself. Keep your mind busy during all of those breaks by hanging the Sudoku toilet paper instead of your boring old Charmin.

Do your research & be prepared…maybe Allie is right for you.
