Oh winter, why dry?

This time of year is always the worst for dry skin.

A few weeks back I received a Burt’s Bees survival filled with Burt’s bees products for me to test out. I have been using the Milk & Honey Body lotion the most. I keep it in my purse or at the office. It really leaves your skin feeling hydrated, absorbs quickly, and is not greasy.

The lotion is specially formulated for normal to dry skin and includes “Aloe Vera and Vitamin E, formulated to leave rough, flaky skin soft and smooth, naturally. ”

I recommend you give it a try this winter. Take care of your skin & take care of yourself!!

Hm. Mr. Tapeminatti, who are you?

I received a comment from an anonymous reader…

I think Mr. Tapeminatti, who ever he is, has picked up on my interest in his business and is now playing a little game with me. Seems like he/they/whoever, may have ghost written me and now I am intrigued! I further explore the world of this unique media that I see all over downtown. The thing I really enjoy is the mystery behind it all. It’s my favorite type of marketing, the ‘roach-bait’ style.

A marketing message delivered by an actor posing as a regular person with the intention of having that message passed along to many others….

“Anonymous said…

the more you seek

Tapeminatti is

Tapeminatti does provide these services but is not limited to them.”

My friend Daniel is a very inspiring individual.

Daniel Patricio is a 20 year old Ryerson University student and a Hospice of Peel volunteer for the past two years. Daniel approached Hospice and said he would like to contribute in a bigger way.

Daniel is raising funds to put Christmas dinner on the table and provide for families affected by terminal illness and their kids. He is asking for $10 which will go directly for Hospice of Peel. If you know of anyone who is in a facility such as a Hospice Cincinnati (or one closer to where you live), you know that they are in the best hands possible to help care for them, regardless of what they’re going through. Just like with anyone, of course you’d want the best for them.



Many of these families divert most of their valuable time, energy and finances to fighting illness which causes them to forget to cherish their last moments with their loved ones. In these precious last moments, we would like to give families the chance to embrace these last days as memorable ones.

I am a big believer in giving and that it truly is it’s own gift. Take a few minutes to donate to a good cause and shine some light on your day by helping out someone else. Feel free to tell me your stories of giving. I love sharing the positive vibes ?

Do it today!

Holiday time means….STUFF FOR YOU!

In December I am going to be giving away this lovely Givenchy Organza gift set from my friends at Givenchy. I’m in the process of setting up a contest and using my creativity to sort out the details. I’d love to know if you have any ideas!

In Givenchyʼs 2008 Holiday Collection, the Organza set comes with a 50mL spray, 75mL silky body veil and a 75mL shower gel. The gift set is available exclusively at The Bay and the suggested retail price is $ 80. What a great gift!

I have loved this song and listen to it about once a week. I find that Baz Lurhman’s simple thoughts keep my simple thoughts aligned with what I believe. It is veryunpretentious, almost a monologue, and I encourage you to listen and watch. I love to listen to it on my ipod and lay in the grass, leaves, or snow and close my eyes to let my mind wander. It is when I do this, I feel connected to myself and the universe. I know that I can achieve what I believe.
