Breast Cancer Awareness Month ~ Early Detection #PGBestDefense

October 20, 2013 by Maria

This is a sponsored  post for SheSpeaks/P&G.   One in eight women will get breast cancer in her lifetime. One in eight. That is equivalent to an inner circle of girlfriends or the women in an extended family. While breast cancer rates are lower among non-Caucasian women, death rates are higher among African American and Latina women. In fact, every hour and a half a Latina woman dies of breast cancer in the United States. Early detection is the best defense against breast Continue Reading

Discover The All-New 2013 Nissan Sentra #descubresentra

April 23, 2013 by Maria

I remember when I was a senior in high school, the parking lots were full of teen cars. Some were brand new, some belonged to the parents of the students, and some were used vehicles bought specifically for a new driver. One vehicle we saw a lot growing up was a Nissan Sentra. Parents chose Nissan due to it's being economical, dependable, and long-lasting. Since I didn't drive when I was in high school, my 1st (almost) New Car was a Nissan. It was 3 years old and previously a government car Continue Reading

What Makes You 2x’s Stronger? #AngelSoft

March 4, 2013 by Maria

Let's face it, being a woman is hard. We make tough important choices every day of every year. The choice to go back to work was a very challenging decision my family & I made. I remember going back to work full-time after being a SAHM for several years. I was excited about the new adventure ahead for me, but very sad at the same time. I would miss my kids. I needed them, just like they needed me. I wanted to be home, but the economy was making a sudden downturn and I was afraid & worried about Continue Reading

Green Works: Being Green is for Everyone #YouDontHaveToBe #GreenHousewives

January 31, 2013 by Maria

Over the years, many consumers have realized that being "Green" is the smart solution for our environment in order to prosper and grow. We have made it a trend. Trends are good right? Well, not necessarily. We have become "eco-exclusive". By that I mean, we have added pressure on others to do more by reminding them that we go over & beyond in our eco-friendly mission. In a new survey, fifty-one percent of respondents said “green is the new black.” Being eco-friendly is fantastic and Continue Reading

Fashion Meet Comfort: Fashion FLEXY®/Haute Things, Inc Giveaway Ends 12/24

December 17, 2012 by Maria

Sometimes finding items in our everyday wardrobe that are fashionable and comfortable for everyday use can be very hard to find. During my 9-5 job healthcare job, I always start my day with my hair down, freshly flat-ironed, and looking completely together. Before lunchtime I find myself looking for my elastic ponytail around my wrists (that cuts off blood circulation) and pinning my hair back. Those very same elastic bands are not good for my hair in the first place more nor are they Continue Reading

Adding Soybean Oil to Your Fun & Festive Baking Recipes + $25 Walmart Gift Card Giveaway #SoyParaSoy #Spon

December 14, 2012 by Maria

One of my favorite things to do with the kids during the holidays is bake. I use my days off of my 9-5p.m job to focus on quality time with the kids, so baking seems to be the best way to multitask with them. But it seems I'm not the only one baking for my children this time of year. Since they are receiving treats from neighbors, our church family, grandparents and naturally their school classroom, I need to focus on the ingredients I use in my family recipes. I am by far not a "health foodie", Continue Reading
