Green Works: Being Green is for Everyone #YouDontHaveToBe #GreenHousewives
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
It’s a Party! Winn-Dixie Mardi Gras King Cake Review #WDNola
Having lived in Southeast Louisiana for over 23 years I have had my fair share of Mardi Gras King Cakes. My family & I look forward to Mardi Gras.

So every year my family & I taste test various King Cakes all over the New Orleans area (and even South Mississippi) in search for a new favorite. But.....I'm a tad crazy picky. King Cake Requirements: I want my King Cake fresh. I need my king Continue Reading
Reyes Magos with Net10 Wireless #Net10Latino
Culture & tradition is something my husband & I try very hard to instill in our young children. Last Sunday, January 6th was Dia de los Reyes or Rayes Magos which many Latino families celebrate. Living in the New Orleans area, we call it Twelfth night (Epiphany or the 1st day of Carnival Season). Although the similarities in the 2 holidays is similar, we try to maintain the family aspect of Rayes Magos on January 6th since Carnival Season is something my children are extremely family Continue Reading

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

Net10Wireless – Getting More Bang For Your Buck #Net10WirelessLatino
My daughter is almost 13 & whether I like it or not, the need for her to have a cellphone is a necessity for my family. But adding additional phone lines which include unlimited data, text messages and calls is simply not as affordable as I need it to be. Although I have unlimited text messaging for my family, data & calls are not unlimited especially having 4 phones under 1 plan. Recently I made a partial switch to Net10Wireless. Their unlimited "everything" (data,text, 411 & calls) Continue Reading
