If you are in need of a great gift idea for a book lover... Look no further! Thumbing Through Thoreau is what you need. This book would be great as a coffee table book or one to add to a library. Thumbing Through Thoreau is the most comprehensive collection of Thoreau! What makes it even better? Jay Luke and Ren Adams take their own interpretation of each of the quotes and do an illustration for each one. What you get is an original piece of artwork and a Thoreau quote on each page... The book is broken down into three sections... Section One deals with Society and Goverment. Section Two ... Spirituality and Nature and Section Three... Love. Also, at the end of the book, they have included an index. Need to look it up based on America? You can.... Or Journey? Got that as well. They even have Wisdom thrown in there! There are several of Henry David Thoreau quotes I like... But I will share a just a couple with you. (Hey, you can go buy the book to experience it all!) Thoreau hit it...

My Nana had Epsom Salt in her pantry for as long as I can remember. Never really knew why... But now, I guess she was on to something! There are many different uses and I would like to share a couple with you. Hey, talk about an inexpensive gift idea! Speaking of that... On the Nate Berkus show, they were talking about how to leave a few items for your guests when they come for a weekend visit. This would be great! You can use Epsom Salt as a means to pamper yourself for a very small price versus other products. If packaged cute, this would be a great gift!!! ( You know, like those cute little apothecary jars or something?) The following was emailed to me, I just wanted to share: For Pampering: ~ Glowing skin exfoliating treatment: Mix 2 cups of Epsom Salt with 1/4 cup of petroleum jelly and a few drops of lavender essential oil. Use the mixture to gently scrub away dry skin patches. ~ Microdermabrasion Facial: Mix 1/2 TSP of Epsom Salt into cleansing cream for a deep-pore clean...

Ecomom is an amazing company that I have been lucky to work with in the past. With that in mind, I wanted to share with you an AMAZING thing they are doing. Until November 29 th , they are going to randomly select FOUR orders per day... and give the person ordering it all of their order for FREE! What makes this even better is the FOUR orders that are selected each day... They are going to duplicate and give the second order to a great organization, Baby2Baby . Besides this cool promotion they are running... They are also offering amazing sale prices!!! Thanks Ecomom ! Just wanted to share... I get nothing in return for this, except a smile knowing that there are good people in the world!

How often do you clean your windows? I do not know a specific number... But I know I clean them so much more now... Broxton loves to look out the window and although his hand-prints are cute... Not so much on the glass. Okay, I admit... I do NOT clean the outside of the glass. I should, I know... But still. Moving along........... Let me tell you about Invisible Glass. In the Invisible Glass Line, they carry an aerosol spray can and the trigger bottle. I used both initially... One for each window to see. I could not see a difference between the two bottles, but I could see that the window was super clean. The cleaning cloth they include works wonderfully to keep the windows streak free! Invisible Glass also carries a headlight restoration product! (We will be using this soon!) Also, they have another product that I like. It is the Glass cleaner with Rain Repellent! Now, I never thought about this when cleaning a car... but on their site, it tells you.. Wash the windows, inside and out...
