Have you ever had a favorite fragrance that over time became your signature scent only to discover that it was to be discontinued or simply phased out as a new line of fragrance was presented? If so, have I got a deal for you. I came across a site that not only has the “discontinued” perfume I love but at a considerable discount over the department store where I had been buying it. In fact, on some items it seems to be half or greater and many times they offer free shipping.
Check it out at http://www.fragrance.net. Perfumes, lotions and oils you thought you’d never see again are available at considerably less than department store prices. If you don’t need this valuable info yourself, please share with someone you think might. You’re sure to come off looking like a genius. Oh that’s right, you’re a grammy, you ARE a genius!!
I have a weakness, well probably several really but at least one that I’ll own up to. I LOVE a good cookie. It has to be good, I’m not wasting calories on a bad cookie! I made some oatmeal cookies a couple days ago. Some of the “break and bake” variety anyway. This “break and bake” plan is pretty darn convenient and for a day or so the cookies aren’t bad either. After that, they just don’t quite make the “good” cookie cut!
Bet you’re wondering, just where’s this Hip Tip? Well this morning, quite by accident, I discovered that if you take one of these 2 to 3 day old cookies and pop it in the toaster for 20 to 30 seconds it tastes like it’s fresh out of the oven! How this little tidbit escaped me all these years I can’t say but better late than never, right? ENJOY!
This Hip Tip is for everyone (Grammys and others) with a busy life, full schedule of commitments and an iPhone or iPod! Seem like an odd combination? Not really, not if you own an iPhone or an iPod.
De-stressing is now as simple and accessible as a download for your iPhone or iPod from iTune’s significant collection of relaxation sounds. Choose from any number of themes, an African Safari to a Tahitian Beach, Lullaby’s, Spa sounds, how about a crackling camp fire…..they’ve got it all. A couple of my favorites are Relaxing Sounds of Nature: Tropical Beach and Best of Relaxing Music and The Calming Sounds of Nature: Piano, Ocean and Rain.
Most downloads are .99 cents each or you can buy an entire album for an average price of $10. At these prices it’s not only a vacation for your mind, your wallet will love it as well!
Enjoy, GG
Picture this…..it’s the week of Christmas, only a couple days left, a million things to do and Santa has “out-sourced” the wrapping of all the stocking stuffers to you! Wow, he must think you have nothing but time! Here’s a little something to make the task a bit easier. Keep a market basket or something similar close to your gift wrapping area. When cutting the paper for each package instead of throwing away the excess paper, toss it into the basket. When you finally sit down to give Santa a hand with the stockings, you’ve got a basket of pre-cut holiday paper ready for all the stocking stuffers…oops, I mean treasures! Fix yourself some hot cocoa, tune in the holiday carols and enjoy!
