When Dad was traveling a lot, Mom would sometimes have trouble sleeping and we would keep her company while she watched those infomercials. Her favorites were the wrinkle-be-gone stuff and the Magic Bullet blender thingy. She hates to cook and it seemed you could put anything in that little blender and something amazing would come out of it. She never ordered anything (that we know about:) but she did get a little Bullet at Target - used it about once! It's not as magical as on TV apparently.<br />The Road DogsRoad Dog Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08697788481398257374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-24692118854661223112010-09-28T21:49:56.088-04:002010-09-28T21:49:56.088-04:00no i never buy from them, you can get as seen on t...no i never buy from them, you can get as seen on tv stuff at target so i will at times try it out...love the moon pic. mine sucked!Kritter Keeper at Farm Tailshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12289022593889972949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-5377231042922509472010-09-28T11:49:25.764-04:002010-09-28T11:49:25.764-04:00Great shot of the harvest moon!

What are you shooting with?<br /><br />Once I bought an "As Seen on TV" item. It's some sort of broom: squeegee on one side, rubber "nubbies" on the other. <br /><br />I guess it's a good squeegee, and that's why I bought it (buy one, get one free!!). That's the closest I've gotten to an info-mercial purchase! :)Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175960074150834058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-55803240888980606802010-09-25T00:37:42.204-04:002010-09-25T00:37:42.204-04:00If it has anything to do with improving my golf ga...If it has anything to do with improving my golf game, I've probably bought it after watching the infomercial.

Usually every morning at 6 or so (in the winter) I take Simba out into the cool morning air and we cuddle as I have my morning devotion and read a bit in a book. I would wear a jacket, warm pj pants, and bring a blanket, but things got so crowded. The snuggie allowed me to be warm with my jacket and pjs on underheath, while being able to read, snuggle Simba, and drink some tea. I really think everyone should have one. The commercial does it no justice, it made me laugh out loud...thats why I bought it!<br /><br /><br /><br />I hope you are doing well. Simba and I have had a rough week, but we have found a highly recommended dermatologist (for dogs) in our area. We are going to go to them to get ideas on how to approach these allergies. The only current culprit seems to be grass.. at the moment. So, things are a little tough. We'll make it through. Just one day, and one step at a time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-1170303958271702572010-09-23T22:41:58.141-04:002010-09-23T22:41:58.141-04:00Haha ~ television confessions ~ I love it!

Sometimes I fall asleep just fine but when 3:00 rolls around I find myself wide awake. My family is of course asleep so what is there to do but to watch infomercials. I have been tempted by Sheer Perfection--promising with each use to look like Cindy Crawford. I even woke Alex at one point asking if he thought it would be alright to give it a try. I will not tell you his direct answer but lets just say I do not look anything like Cindy Crawford :) I have also been tempted by that all in one meal cooker. How wonderful it would be if that really did work. Stuff everything into this bullet looking contraption and in 20 min your complete dinner is ready. I am so glad that I am not the only one that has been tempted. Next time I am awake at 3:00 am wondering if I should run for my credit card I will think of you :)<br />xoxo<br />Mimimimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18005110684945929330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1003916153932012549.post-6000452101146416702010-09-23T21:27:27.086-04:002010-09-23T21:27:27.086-04:00Hi Kim
