About Tide with Acti-Lift:

Have you ever noticed how difficult it can be to remove stubborn, dry stains?  If only dry stains could be lifted with ease, your favorite outfits would be free from tough stains and your laundry routine a bit simpler.  Tide® with Acti-Lift™ technology, is designed to soften and break up dry stains, lifting them off with ease.  Tide with Acti-Lift allows you and your family to wear what you love, without the worry of tough stains.

Disclosure:

I am being paid cash dollars by DeVries PR, Tide's PR agency, to promote this event. Payment is for writing this post and promoting it via Twitter and Facebook, and for being at the event. I also suggested the organization to receive the donation and provided the information so they could do it.

Link Love: BellyDance Maternity and Baby

Recently, I wrote about about how there are so many more cool baby products out now that weren't available just five short years ago when I was pregnant with my first child. The same goes for maternity clothing which wasn't at all bad when I was pregnant, but is so much more stylish and hip now. Belly Dance Maternity is "the hotness" when it comes to maternity clothes. It almost makes me wish I was pregnant. Anyone pregnant and reading this?  Go!  Go check out the cute belly-hugging clothes.

Partner site Belly Dance Baby sells cute and unique baby clothes for girls and boys (baby through toddler sizes). The girl clothes are darling, just so sweet.  And, hey, all you moms of boys that complain about boys' clothes not being as cute as girls' clothes need to check this site out.

Things people send me: Dove Skin Vitalizer

The nice folks at Dove (well, actually their PR people) sent me a Skin Vitalizer to test out. As you all know, people send me stuff from time-to-time and if it's books, toiletries, or cleaning products, you betcherass I'm accepting it.

So what is the Skin Vitalizer? It's basically a face dildo. It's a vibrating massager with cleansing pads that attach in a Velcro-like fashion. One side of the pads is smooth, one is rougher for exfoliating.
