Shopping Alert: 4 Day 4G Sprint Smartphone Sale

This post brought to you by Sprint. All opinions are 100% mine. Being a satisfied Sprint customer for twenty plus years, sharing this smartphone deal is my pleasure. In my opinion, Sprint is a sound phone company, who has provided me many affordable opportunities. In fact, one such deal resulted in owning a smart phone. Oh boy, I do love my new smart phone!! This special offer has two options, which came as no surprise to me. Typically, Sprint offers multiple deals because I do believe they realize customers needs vary. Both deals require a new line of service or add on to an existing Sprint account. First on the deal list is the Nexus S™ 4G. You can get this smartphone FREE when you open a new line of service or add to your existing Sprint account. The Nexus S™ 4G features include built-in Google apps, integrated Google Voice™ service, 4G speed, and a fast processor. The exterior has a...

Valentine’s Day is only a few weeks away. I prefer not to “go big” on this ancient, and nowadays excessively commercialized, day of love. You see, our wedding anniversary is barely one month later, and to me a more appropriate reason to splurge. This year we are celebrating 25 years of marriage, woo hoo! I‘m a practical woman or perhaps midlife has matured that youthful dreamy romantic gene. Either way, I never was a material girl. An expensive yet beautiful bouquet of roses is a waste of money in my opinion. Moreover, my thinking is diamonds are appropriate for long lasting love occasions. An expensive anniversary or engagement-sized diamond is an excessive gift for Valentines Day in my humble opinion. Rings or another jewelry piece with sparkling diamond accent chips is more acceptable for a Valentines Day gift. After all, how many pieces of fine jewelry do I really need? In fact, when hubby and I married, my diamond...

The Best Meals Happen at Home is a true statement and one that I personally support for a variety of reasons. I love to cook and believe there is nothing finer than a home cooked meal. After all, Food is a universal language. Many a problem has been solved around the dinner table. In fact, Hubby and I insisted the family eat dinner together. This afforded everyone time to share daily experiences. My boys, and the other youngsters that we helped raise, support family dinners now even though they protested at the time. It is rewarding and amazing to discover the true impact of our dinnertime rule. So, when myblogspark offered the opportunity to join Publix, General Mills, Campbell’s and Unilever in this promotion I simply couldn’t refuse. Furthermore, personal experience has proven a delicious and nutritional dinner can be prepared both quickly and economically. Looking for a super quick dinner recipe the kids will surely enjoy. Try this...

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Don’t you just hate it when insurance companies make network changes? Oftentimes even when the changes improve ones health benefits they still have a negative affect. For many people, changing their doctor or pharmacist is more than a simply driving to another building. Relationships and trust are a very important aspect of health care and wellness. Being forced to alter ones health care choices based solely on money driven motives is an outrage! One example of this diminishing of wellness is the Walgreens and Express Scripts contract negotiations. For the past year Walgreens has been in negotiations with Express Scripts to continue as part of its pharmacy provider network. Those contract negotiations were unsuccessful, and the contract expired on Dec. 31. Beginning January 2012, Walgreens is no longer part of Express Scripts’ pharmacy provider network. This includes all Walgreens pharmacies nationwide...

This post brought to you by Sprint. All opinions are 100% mine. Smart phones are one of the hottest gifts this season! I have wanted a tablet for a long time now and Sprint helped to make my dream come true. Sprint is offering such awesome deals hubby ordered me a new smartphone for Christmas… Woo Hoo! In fact, the EVO 4G deals are so affordable, we bought Red an HTC EVO Design as well. He loves the 4G speed, anywhere information accessibility, and some pretty darn amazing apps too. Oh and lets not forget the music, gotta have tunes right? We have been Sprint customers since the early nineties. I have to say that of all the cable, cell phone, and internet providers we have experienced Sprint has the best customer service of them all. This testimony combined with the great holiday deals on Android™ powered EVO 4G or EVO™ Shift devices should be motivation enough however, for...

Florida New Years Day Feast – Grilling with GravyMaster

This post brought to you by GravyMaster. All opinions are 100% mine. “GravyMaster® is NOT just for gravy” – An Overview It once was a common misconception that gravy enhancer was generally used to augment color and season gravy. In fact, one Chow Hound forum contributor claimed, “I use Gravy Master because my mother, the gravy queen, used it. I just add a few drops to gravy to perk up the color and flavor. ” Today, products like Gravy Master do more than create rich colored gravy. Caramelize onions, sealing in natural juices, and enhancing marinades are just a few ways Gravy Master enhances recipes. Another mistaken belief is GravyMaster and other gravy enhancer must be high in sodium. This is simply not the case. One teaspoon contains 120 mg sodium. The FDA claims, “The Dietary Guidelines recommend that the general population consume no more than 2,300 milligrams of sodium a day (about a teaspoon of table salt).” Ingredients...
