Romeo and Juliet

I don't really like this story. Who in their right mind kill themselves because their loved ones were killed. I don't see the logic in it and I don't see the romance in it either. I could kill someone to protect my loved ones but not kill myself because they are dead. Now that i'm older, I see this book differently. A stressful event either brake you or bring you together. Let's say you lost a child: this event will either bring the couple together or separate them. One will go down in the abyss of depression and the other one cannot bring he/she back from there. Or they will both support one another and go through it together. I'm a romantic at heart but I really don't like this story. My husband and I went to very stressful stuff one after the other and we held on to each other for each waves, with the kids right there on our sides. -
The Little Prince
True classic book Loved it when I was young. Still loved it when my kids were old enough to understand. Went to see the movie recently. You have to be open-minded about this book because it's different in every way.

A Walk to Remember
Any Nicholas Sparks book or movie makes me cry. They are all plausible, down to earth, romantic and thrilling. This one is about fate and faith. For me the end was a surprise when I read it but when I thought about it after, well yes, it should have... +
Any Nicholas Sparks book or movie makes me cry. They are all plausible, down to earth, romantic and thrilling. This one is about fate and faith. For me the end was a surprise when I read it but when I thought about it after, well yes, it should have come to that., no question about it. -

Got the Tassimo for free when we bought a box of 40 pods. Love the 1-cup at a time idea and also love the taste of my cup of choice.. My husband would like refillable pods but Tassimo unlike Keurig works with a scan because the amount of onces is different within the companies. For ex. Tim Hortons and McDonald's have 7 oz. drinks but Maxwell House has 8 oz. Love it that it tells you when you clean it up and it's really easy to do too. I agree with one reviewer that there's a lot of garbage/recycling to do. Fortunately for us here, both the foil and the carton packagings are recyclable; only the pods go to garbage but it's still too much. -

This is a website that you will learn to love and use to buy great gifts. They have 50/50 (50 books at 50% off, changes every 2 weeks), they have scratch and dent, and their regular deals in the sales, but mostly these books are the overstock and they need to be taken out the shelves to make space for the new stock. But do not think you will only find "old" books. I found books not even a year out that were popular (such as the hunger games series). I can buy big hardcover books for my brothers' birthdays that are worth about $80 and get them for about $15. I buy mysteries, novels, romances, for $2-$3. I buy baby books for $0.99 and it's great. If you cannot find the book you want, just put it in your wishlist and they'll send you an email when they get it; it may take a few months but it usually comes your way at a much better price than the bookstore or website price. Give it a try! Their motto is Read-iculously low prices... I forgot to add that they also have notebooks of all kinds, calendars, and much more. -

I was overweight and lost 62 lb. in about 12 months which was fabulous for me. They tell you, and it's true, you will be hungry the first 3-4 days until your body goes into ketosis. Every time you cheat you go back to day 1 and you will be hungry for the first 3-4 AGAIN. I followed everything that I was told and I read everything that was given to me (copy for my PG). I lost about 3-4 lb. a week. The first week I actually lost 9 lb.! You have to follow the 4 steps otherwise you will not learn a new way of live/eating and will gain back you weight or more. Step 1: you eat 1 meal made in your kitchen, 3 from packets - until you reach your goal; Step 2: you eat 2 meals made in your kitchen, 2 from packets - for two weeks; Step 3: you eat 3 meals made in your kitchen, 1 from a packet - for two more weeks; Step 4: The is the maintenance for life. The new way of eating mostly follows the Paleo diet, which is a great way to eat. My husband followed the same diet as me but to gain weight - yes it's possible - and he took in 17 lb. in two years. He loves the new recipes and we were not bored by the products and if we did not like something we bought, we'd look for another way of eating it. For example, we did not like the mashed potatoes, so I made small buns out of the package or just mix it up with a stew to thicken the gravy. There are a lot of "rethought" recipes made with this diet's products. Check out Three fat chicks, or just Google Ideal Protein. My doctor decided to follow me closely when I told him about this diet so I went for a quick check-up every two weeks (at first). I had high blood pressure, which went down to normal after a month, I did not suffer from undernourishment, I had more energy, my skin looked great, my breathing problems disapeared, my eczema too. All in all, my PG was really happy for me and my husband. I read some say that you cannot exercise. You can but you can mildly (without sweating). I had an accident previous going on the diet and had to do some exercises for it and it went well. The reason behind the no exercise is because we are in a low calorie diet and you might faint if you push yourself too much. -
