Farberware Cookware is a brand name that you can trust.  It has been around since 1937.  From its inception it has been innovative and affordable.  Farberware continues to be innovative and affordable.  The product line includes cookware sets, skillets, bakeware, and saucepans.  Farberware products are available in Stainless Steel, Affiniti, and Classic Steel.

I recently purchased the Faberware Premium Non-Stick Cookware.  I was able to equip my kitchen with beautiful Cookware basics without breaking your budget. They really are beautiful and functional, the platinum colored nonstick interior and richly colored exterior is easy to clean – foods and stains come right off. The lids ares a really cool tempered glass and fit snuggly on offer keeping moisture and nutrients in the pan.

My Farberware Cookware set came with ten pieces: 1 Qt. and 2 Qt. Covered Saucepans, 4.5 Qt. Covered Stockpot, 9″ and 10.5″ Skillets, two Prestige® kitchen tools including a Solid Spoon and Slotted Spoon.  I got Farberware cookware  in this really attractive brick red color, but you can get them made out of stainless steel if you like that better.  My kitchen happens to be very colorful so I like to keep the color thing going, even my cookware.

I do cook a lot and what I like best about my Farber Cookware is that the handles are really comfortable are riveted to the pan for extra durability. They are oven safe as well, up to 350°F.  I have an electric stove, so the distribution of the heat is very important to me because electric stoves just do not seem to distrubete the heat that well.  I found that with my Faberware Cookware the heat distribution is throughout the entire pan for perfect cooking performance.  I got of this amazing cookware for fewer than one-hundred dollars, on-line of course.

There is one more Farberware Cookware  product that I must strongly suggest, the Farberware Restaurant Pro 14 Inch Open Skillet.  I splurged a little on this one, but it was well worth it.  I use it probably more than the rest of my ten piece Farberware cookware.  I love making stir fry and chicken and having guest over and this skillet is perfect for that.  The Farberware Skillets have sloped sides so that foods slide out easily. And it is large enough for dinner parties or large families.  I always use it to cook omelets, pancakes, quesadillas, sautéing vegetables, searing steaks, fish and poultry. The nonstick surface makes cleanup effortless.  Just remember that you cannot put this gem in the dishwasher.

I really love my Melitta Coffee Maker.  I have the Melitta  Mill and Brew  coffee machine.

However, Mellitta makes all kinds of coffee pots and products including manual coffee makers, single serve machines, and up to 12 cup makers.  Melitta has been making coffee machines  since the turn of the century.  In fact, they were the company that originaly made the cone coffee filter.  Mellitta continues to be ahead of the game in regards to making the best and most innovative Coffee Makers.

Take my Melitta Coffee Machine (the Melitta Mill and Brew Smart Coffeemaker) can be set-up to automatically start grinding and brewing at pre-set times. It is so nice to wake up to fresh cup of coffee.  This Melitta Coffee Maker can also turn itself off.  I love love the fact that my coffee pot shuts itself off because I haves so much going on in the morning I use to always forget and then I would ruminate on it at work for the rest of the day.   Another cook feature about the Melitta Coffee Maker is that brewing can be interrupted if you wish to pour a cup before the end of the process.  The Melitta Mill and Brew machine has seven grind selections that will allow you to choose how fine, or coarse, you want your coffee beans!  This works out great for me and my family because I tend to like my coffee a bit stronger, well a lot stronger than my husband.  With the grind selection, I get to choose how robust I want my coffee to be.

Melitta Coffee Makers are truly innovative!!!  I think it is the only coffee maker that tells you the weather in the morning.  This information comes through an FM signal, without any need of setting up procedures, subscription, or internet connection. The only thing you will need to do is to call 1-877-317-3281 to find out if your area is covered by the FM signal transmissions.

The Braun Hand Blender comes in several different models.  All the Braun Hand Blenders are extremely versatile and once you own one you will wander how you ever cooked without one. I first discovered the kitchen magic that is made possible with the Braun Hand Blender after going to my sister’s house to help her with Thanksgiving dinner last year.  We were both a little bit nervous about being the hostess and co-hostess for Thanksgiving, even though we are both in our thirties because my mom always hosted thanksgiving.  For the first time I was actually so happy that my brother in-law has to have every new gadget because the Braun Hand Blender made making a huge meal for our entire family so much easier and fun!

The Braun Hand Blender really is versatile and effortless!  It has become my favorite Kitchen tool.  I understand now why they call it The Braun Multiquick Hand Blender.   Multiquick is definitely named correctly because this hand blender does a lot more than just blend.  It actually can blend, chop, whip, slice, shred and even knead.  I thought a Hand Blender would be limited to blending things, but I was able to use it to help me with more than just the whipping of the mashed potatoes.  One of the best features of the Braun Hand Mixer is that it is cordless; this made it a breeze to maneuver around my sister’s enormous kitchen and multi-task.

The reason the Braun Hand Blenders are so great is that they have the power of a food processor and the comfort of a Hand Blender all in one in one.  That is because they come with versatile accessories that are super easy to connect and easy to store.   The accessories on the Braun Hand Blender allow you the freedom to experiment and follow recipes that looked like way too much work if you had only yourself and a knife.   With the Braun Hand Blender, you can create fresh, healthy and delicious food in a variety of forms and thereby bring your personal touch to your dishes. Experiment as freely as you want!  It is easy due to the easy-to-switch attachments on the Braun Hand Blender easily turns your Braun Blender into a Braun hand mixer.

After I graduated from college and got a big girl job, I realized that I needed an iron to keep my new profession wardrobe looking sharp.  After searching the internet for the best deal, I ended up buying a Rowenta Iron.  But man I was shocked to find out all the different styles, models, and features Rowenta Irons come in.   I always assumed an iron was an iron, but Rowenta makes a Steamium , a Pro Master , an ADVANCER ,a  Focus Iron ,an  Effective Cord Reel Iron, and an Effective Iron.   These irons vary in price from around forty dollars to a hundred and fifty dollars.

I have to admit that I splurged and bought the top of the model Rowenta Iron called the Steamium 1800-Watt Steam Iron with 400-Hole Platinum.  It was a bit of a splurge, but man was it worth it!  The Rowenta Iron works so well and is so easy to operate (and this is coming from a girl that had never ironed before) that I hardly ever take my clothes to the dry cleaners anymore.  This Rowenta Stamium (funny name) has saved me so much time from having to run back and forth to the dry cleaners and basically paid for itself in two months because I do not have a huge dry cleaning bill.

These are some of the features that make the Rowenta Iron so magical.  Wrinkles are removed fast because it is an 1800-watt steam iron, the tip is designed so that it is extremely precise so I can easily get in between seems and other nooks and crannies, it has a really easy to read select dial that allows me to choose from linen, cotton, wool, or synthetics, it has thirty percent more power than most other irons which allows me to iron in a zip, and my favorite thing about my Rowental Iron is that I can hold it up right so I can steam iron large garments!  Actually I lied, my favorite feature of my Rowental iron is that I never have to worry about burning my house down because if my iron is left inactive for eight minutes, it will automatically shut off.

Style meets functionality when you purchase an LG refrigerator.  LG refrigerators are well designed because of the LG design philosophy that combines four basic elements: Concept, Style, Interface, and Finish. In this crazy modern fast paced world technology is important and needed to simplify our hectic lives.  LG refrigerators blend modern technology with human needs and style.  The LG corporation is constantly researching new ways to blend the two; functionality and technology.   LG refrigerators do all this while incorporating ergonomics with digital technology.

One of my favorites  LG refrigerators is the Side-By-Side Refrigerator with Ice and Water Dispenser (22.89 cu.ft.)  You can really see how they have integrated human needs and technology.  My refrigerator is always packed to the brim between all the kids’ food I have for my grandchildren and my condiment fetus.   The LG Side-By-Side Refrigerator makes it so easy for me to find anything.   The refrigerator comes with adjustable, slide-out shelving, fixed and adjustable door baskets, and multiple drawers.  These LG refrigerators have given my fridge amazing organization; I can find exactly what I need in a jiffy.   On top of that, they come with modern LG styling and features like IcePlus™, an intuitive LED display, contoured doors, and hidden hinges.

Now if you are looking for a big refrigerator that does not compromise style, functionality, and technology, LG has the refrigerator for you!  My daughter is a mother and a foster mother so you can imagine the amount of food she needs to keep in her refrigerator.  The ultra-large 4 Door convertible refrigerator with bottom freezer (26.5 cu. ft) is huge, but so well designed it does not look over whelming in my daughter’s kitchen.  It comes with an extra bottom freezer which is a God send because she just keeps all those quickly easy frozen dinner meals in there so her husband can make quick delicious meals when she cannot be home in the evenings.  The refrigerator comes  with 26.5 cubic feet of space, double freezer drawers and ultra-accommodating, 12.6-inch tall-ice and water-dispenser. The technology  is unbelievable!  This LG refrigerator has an innovative humidity-controlled crispers. This means that my daughter can store tons of fruit and veggies without having to worry about them going bad!

I highly recommend any LG refrigerator, but strongly encourage anyone to shop online to get the best price and latest information.

The Waring Waffle Maker is the bomb.  It is so stylish looking and always makes the perfect waffle. I know it may seem kind of silly to be in love with a waring waffle maker ,but cooking waffles in my very own waffle maker brings back so many happy memories for me.

When I was a little girl my Grandma had a Waring Waffle Maker.  My sister and Loved going over to Grandma’s house and we especially loved it when she pulled out her Waring Waffle Maker.  We would always fight over who would get the first golden brown and delicious waffle.  For me making waffles with my Waring Waffle maker is like cooking up some of my happiest childhood memories.  Man when she would top those golden delicious waffles off with fresh strawberries and whip cream, I truly thought I had died and gone to heaven.

My Grandma had her Waring Waffle Maker literally  tell the day she died.  Her Waring waffle maker must have been at least thirty years old and never once did she have a problem with it.  That is why when I got married the first thing I registered for was a Waring Waffle Maker.  My mom inherited my grandmas and now that I was beginning to think about having my own family, I wanted my own Waring Waffle Maker so I could fill my household with warm, loving, and yummy memories.

The Waring Waffle maker comes in a variety of styles from the Waring Waffle Pro double waffle maker to the two waffle portable waffle maker that is great for camping.   The Professional quality double waffle maker bakes two extra-deep Belgian waffles at a time. It is truly amazing and the design is ergonomical and sleek looking.  The rotary feature guarantees that there will be even baking on top and bottom. The Double Waffle maker is definitely much more fancier then my grandma’s single waffle maker, but it maintains the sturdiness and quality in craftsmanship that so many newer appliances lack.  It has two LED’s and three audio beep tones and 1,400 watts of power.  The beauty of it is that I know my Waring Waffle Maker will last at least another thirty years and will be around tell the day that I will be making waffles for my grandchildren

Hello Kitty is an icon that is recognized around the world.   That is how come I love to wear my Hello Kitty Watch.  It is amazing how many compliments I get when I wear my Hello Kitty Watch.  There is a huge selection of Hello Kitty Watches to choose from.  Of Course you can get Hello Kitty Watches from the Scanrio store but other designers like  Kimora Lee Simons makes and designs Hello Kitty Watches.  Can you believe that!  I think it just speaks to the popularity and universal appeal that Hello Kitty has.

Of course the Kimora Lee Simmons Hello Kitty Watch collection is a little pricey.  They are gorgeous and made with stainless steel and diamonds.  These Hello Kitty Watches come with different color alligator straps or one that is made out of pure stainless steel bracelet.  They range in price from one thousand dollar to nearly four thousand dollars.  They are super cute and great quality if you can afford it.

Kimora Lee Simons also makes ceramic Hello Kitty Watches that range from about thousand dollars to twenty-five hundred dollars.  The more expensive ones come with diamonds.  All of them come with a simple Hello Kitty face and have a shiny mother of pearl like background.   The ceramic Kimora Lee Simmons, ceramic Hello Kitty watches are cute, but I do not know if they are worth the money.  I have seen way cuter Hello Kitty Watches elsewhere that are just as high quality for less money.

On the Sanrio website there are Hello Kitty Watches that range from ten dollars to a thousand dollars.  I was a bit surprised with the lack of selection.  However, there were digital Hello Kitty watches that are ideal for little ones that do not know how to tell time yet.  In fact, I bought one for my niece and she loved it.  It was so awesome to see how much her face lit up when she opened that gift.  It was definitely one of the best ten dollars I ever spent.

American Tourister Luggage comes in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. American Tourister luggage sets are inexpensively priced without sacrificing quality. I was shopping around for new luggage after the airlines lost my suitcase when I flew to Colombia for a much needed vacation after completing graduate school. American Tourister luggage makes all kind of luggage: small spinner luggage, an expandable computer case, a boarding bag, a travel toiletry bag, a rolling travel suitcase, and really cute children luggage. To go with any American Touristerer luggage set, there is a wide range of travel accessories that are also produced by this company. Irons, locks, pillows, luggage tags and much more feature in this line of products.

The American Tourister upright is one of my favorite luggage pieces from American Tourister collection. I was so fed up with my carry on suitcase not being able to fit in the overhead compartment and not create a problem when closing the door. I fly a lot of stand by which means if I get on the flight, I will be the last person. It was so embarrassing when my old luggage did not fit in the overhead and I had to give it to the kind flight attendant to check in. This was after she hit her head on my bag when it fell back after she tried to shove it in the overhead bin. Now that I have American Tourister luggage, I never have to worry about that.

Another nice thing about American Tourister upright luggage is that it is slightly wider than most so you can take a little bit more on your next trip or vacation. It has a lot of room which aloes room for those “just in case” outfits because I always seem to wish I packed that one pair of something that I left back home. The retractable handle on the American Tourister is easy to operate. The handles on the top and the side of the bag are helpful when placing it in a car trunk or in a luggage bin. Some of the compartments unzip to expand. The only thing that I really do not like about my American Tourister upright luggage is that all the zippers are confusing when trying to access an external pocket.

I love to spoil my nephews so for his fifth birthday I took him on his first airplane trip. It was collaboration with my parents who bought him his own American Tourister Luggage for kids. The roller bag was awesome. My nephew pulled the bag all around the airport and it was full with all his clothes and toys and a couple of little snacks. He loved carrying his American Tourister luggage because he felt this just like all of us adults and it was really adorable.

Hello Kitty is one of the world’s most beloved icons. She is adored by women and girls of all ages, all around the world. Hello Kitty turned thirty-seven this year, but she is always timeless.  In fact, Hello Kitty is eternally eight years old.  That is why Hello Kitty Baby products are so wonderful.  Not only is your baby going to love everything Hello Kitty Baby, you and all your friends and family will to.   Hello Kitty is so popular, everywhere I go it seems that Hello Kitty comes up.   I heard a group of friends talking about how much they love Hello Kitty and how they just got the Hello Kitty Baby bag.

There are so many things that you can get that are Hello Kitty Baby.  There are Hello Kitty Baby diaper bags, linens, bedding, toys, crib sets, learning toys, mobiles, booties, baby clothes, car seats, changing blankets, shower, clothes, furniture, and tables.  I could go on and as there is pretty much anything you want or could imagine made for Hello Kitty Baby.  That is why it is so great to decorate your baby’s room with Hello Kitty Baby products; they are everywhere.  The selection is great so you can get super creative with it.

Some of my favorite Hello Kitty Baby items are the bed sets.  I especially like the ones that are with Hello Kitty and friends.  Do not get me wrong, I do love Hello Kitty, Sanrio has designed some pretty cool and cute friends for her to have.  It also seems that when she is with her friends, they make Hello Kitty images that are not just of Hello Kitty’s head.

You should really shop around on the internet before you purchase Hello Kitty Baby things because it is everywhere.  When things are in every store that means there are going to be big differences in prices.  I was really surprised at the lack of Hello Kitty Baby stuff available at the Sanrio website.   The prices seemed higher than other places I found on the internet.  Remember too that Hello Kitty baby items make great  gifts.

Have fun shopping for your Hello Kitty Baby items.  I’m will leave you with one Hello Kitty fun fact.   Do you ever wonder why Hello Kitty does not have a mouth?  Well here is one supposed reason why Hello Kitty does not have a mouth, supposedly Hello Kitty is not normally given a mouth because without a mouth, it is easier for someone looking at Hello Kitty to project their own feelings onto the Hello Kitty that way a person can be happy or sad together with Hello Kitty.

At first, I thought traveling with a Travel Purse was unnecessary and dorky, but after taking the time to shop on line, I discovered that there were actually travel purses that were both stylish and functional.  Since purchasing my travel purse (about ten countries ago), I do not leave the States without one. In fact, a vacation just is not as relaxing without my travel purse.  The one time  Iforgot to bring my travel purse on vacation, I kept leaving needed items in my hostel because I did not have room in my purse.

Travel Purses make traveling so much more convenient, especially for woman.  I know that when I have traveled, my purse was so overstuffed that I could not find anything.  When I am  on vacation, I can not leave behind my usual purse stuffing’s like my wallet, shades, make-up,keys, planner  etc.  My purse is normally over stuffed.but I somehow still need to find room for my travel necessities like my camera, passport, water bottle, guidebook and map when I travel.  Travel purses are designed to accommodate all thee things and do not worry, they are made for comfort and style too.

Travel purses come in so many variety,shapes, and sizes, with tons of different features.  Travel Purses can ease the stress of travelling.  Everything  is in one convenient spot.  You will always have your camera a drink and anything else that you might need for a spontaneous adventure with a hot local.  There is enough room for your make-up bag for freshening up too.  Another way that travel purses can ease stress is that some come with  options like locks and straps that are made out of material that is almost impossible to cut.  Believe me the fastest way to turn fun in the sun to tragedy is when you get your pursenabbed.  Getting cards, money, and  and your passport sorted while in an unfamiliar place is a nightmare.

Before I got my travel purse stolen, I had my favorite travel purse that was made of leather.  That purse has been to so many places.  Thank God that travel purse can not talk because if it could, it could tell some stories that I might not want to share with too many people.  The beauty of my leather travel purse is that even after over 15 countries and thousands of miles, it is as beautiful as the day I bought it.  I actually think that, like a good bottle of wine and myself it has become even better with age, as leather tends to do.
