It's unfortunate that most people know someone who has dealt with Breast Cancer whether it's a family member, friend or a friend of a friend. A friend of mine from college found out she had Breast Cancer right around the time we all turned 30. She fought a good fight for almost 5 years but unfortunately she lost and passed away last year. I'm so sad to think of how young she was and how unfair it was that cancer won but hopefully someday every women will be able to beat Breast cancer. That is my hope. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and I wanted to share with you a community that has been formed on My Space called Pink Together where everyone can share hope by posting and reading...

Yoplait and My Blog Spark recently sent me a "Get Strong & Healthy" gift bag that included a free coupon for Yoplait yogurt, an autographed copy of Nancy O'Dell's new book "Full of Life", and a yoga mat with carry-bag. Did you know that Yoplait yogurt is the only leading brand of yogurt containing calcium and vitamin D in every serving (10-20 percent of your daily value of vitamin D and an excellent source of calcium). They offer a large variety of great tasting flavors to help the whole family meet their vitamin D and calcium needs. Here are some interesting facts: 76% of the population is falling short of getting enough vitamin D; and 72% of the population is not getting enough...

Trident has a new gum on the market and the good people at Trident were kind enough to send me some to try. It's good, really good. I try to chew gum in between meals to keep me from snacking and this gum is so yummy it's like having a snack. Your probably wondering what's so good about it?? The flavor combination is amazing. I'm talking about Trident Layers™ and it's the biggest thing for Trident® since 2005, when it launched Trident Splash® which I also enjoy. It's made with real fruit flavors and the flavors are layered in the gum and when you chew the gum and mix the flavors therey are amazing! According to Trident, the new Trident Layers™ is: "made with real fruit flavor for an...

I have another Chicken Soup for the Soul book to giveaway.  I just love these books especially since the stories are short I can just read one or two at a time. This book is called Chicken Soup for the Soul "Extraordinary Teens". I would not want to be a teenager now a days, it was hard enough when I was one but the pressures of today's teens seems so much worse than it was years ago.  I do not look forward to the teen years with my girls and I'm glad I have a ways to go. In today’s difficult world, teens may need a little help maintaining a positive outlook and reaching for the stars. To help them reach their full potential, what could be better than a collection of stories from...
