Blackberry Playbook 16gb

My husband and I bought 2 of these for ourselves for Christmas 2 years ago (on sale, too!), and they are still working really well. We bought the 32 GB version and we still have a lot of memory storage left.
I use mine mainly to read e-books, check FB, and watch movies (on the Youtube app and the Videos program). It takes great pictures, but I use my cellphone/camera for that. There are a lot of apps available for free and purchase, but I wish there was a way to download Android apps onto it as well (or at least have the same apps as Android). Other than that, I really love it :)

Logitech Wireless Mouse M505
I love that this mouse is wireless - no more cords getting in the way :) The only thing is that sometimes, it disconnects from my computer and I have to reinstall the USB drivers - not sure if it's just my computer or what.

My son got this for his birthday and he LOVES it! I like the big screen, the touchscreen capabilities, and the 3D function (although you need to hold it at a certain angle so it doesn't hurt your eyes - my son rarely uses it, but it does look pretty cool!). The best part is that you can play regular DS games on it - which means we didn't have to get rid of all the other DS games we already had from the previous DS :)
Overall, well worth the money.

Old Navy Active Wear
I bought a pair of the Bootleg Yoga Pants last year, and they are still holding strong :) Usually, they will start pilling on the inner thigh, but these pants are still as good as new - with the exception of a little fading as I wear/wash these... +
I bought a pair of the Bootleg Yoga Pants last year, and they are still holding strong :) Usually, they will start pilling on the inner thigh, but these pants are still as good as new - with the exception of a little fading as I wear/wash these pants a lot! The material is a good quality cotton and it holds its shape really well. And for the price, you can't beat it!
Who needs Lululemon when you have Old Navy?

Tim Hortons Iced Cappuccino
I love this frozen treat at all times of the year, even in winter (which get very cold here in Canada!)! It has the perfect level of coffee flavour and it isn't too heavy. I have at least one a week in the spring/summer :)

Quaker Harvest Crunch Quinoa Bar

I received one of these bars in a sample package, and I wasn't too sure how QUINOA would be in a granola bar, but I loved it! It gives it a nice crispy crunch, which you want in a snack bar, and the quinoa lends a lot of nutritional value to it as well, so you have the best of BOTH worlds! And let's face it, who doesn't love chocolate?
Overall, I'd buy this :)

Nutella Hazelnut Spread
Hazelnut and chocolate - is there a more perfect combination? I don't think so! I don't use this on bread, but I LOVE it on vanilla ice cream - just heat some up in the microwave and pour over top. It has the same consistency as hot fudge (y'know... +
Hazelnut and chocolate - is there a more perfect combination? I don't think so!
I don't use this on bread, but I LOVE it on vanilla ice cream - just heat some up in the microwave and pour over top. It has the same consistency as hot fudge (y'know, when the heat of the fudge starts melting the ice cream?) and gives plain old vanilla ice cream a lot more OOMPH :) A friend suggested I try this for S'mores, which I think would be awesome!

Another great novel by Dan Brown! I bought the "special edition" that comes with illustrations, and let me tell you, it gives the story a whole new dimension when you can actually SEE what he's writing about! He writes with so much detail, and the mystery keeps you guessing til the very end :)
And obviously, I loved the movie, too!

The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
I loved the mystery and action and suspense of this book! It keeps you guessing til the very end. I'm not usually into books that have a lot of history in them, but this one was very interesting and informative. I also loved the movie :)

OK I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I LOVED the series O.O I started reading it out of curiosity, and I was quickly hooked. I loved the characters and the way they grew through the series. Christian Grey, though a little possessive and stalker-ish, is my favourite character - true, he can be harsh at times, but you can see he has the best of intentions, and he slowly comes out of his "shell".
Some of the writing can be a bit "immature" and embarrassing to read, but overall, it was a fun read. You can't expect too much from a book(s) like this, which is what I think too many people focus on. I don't care about the politics of BDSM or what's "real" in the world of bondage - I just want an entertaining story.
I loved the books, but I'm not too sure about the upcoming movie. In my mind, I already have my Christian Grey and Anna Steel. I'm suspecting they will cut certain parts of the books out, so I may just stick with the books :S
