I've been wanting to try safflower oil,
Health Benefits of Safflower Oil
Although there is no consensus among doctors and tests are on-going, safflower oil has been shown to alleviate the symptoms of coronary heart disease, Type 2 Diabetes, high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis. Although none of these claims have been proven, many people have shown that there are significant benefits to using safflower oil for health benefits.
Safflower oil also contains a high amount of Vitamin E which reduces respiratory problems, helps blood circulation, and strengthens the immune system. The high concentration of Vitamin E also helps the body eliminate free radicals in the body, lowering the risk of heart disease and cancer. It is great for cooking as the nutritional value is not lost even when heated to a high temperature-such as deep frying.
Safflower oil is high in unsaturated fats and low in saturated fats making it a great choice to keep your heart healthy. It also contains Omega-6 fatty acids which help the body burn fat. These fatty acids also build prostaglandins which help control muscle contractions, balance blood pressure, and help the immune system.
Safflower oil, when rubbed into the roots of your hair, has been shown to improve the hair quality and also giving the hair a lustrous sheen. It’s also been shown that it can moisturize skin giving it a healthy glow.
The oil is also added to a number of bath and body products as it helps smooth and moisturize skin. When applied directly to the skin, it can also reduce the visibility of lines and wrinkles, reduce eczema, and reduce inflammation and redness.
After I used my 10.00 off *I bought 2 soaps, and 1 Safflower Oil, including shipping it came to 5.10, The Safflower oil would have been 7 + 4.99 shipping ..by itself.
I'm out of cooking oil, and I've heard great things about the Safflower Oil, so I will blog about how it cooks!

I won a Nescafe Dolce Gusto on Christmas Eve! &&& It Came Today!
It came in just 3 weeks! It's awesome, If I were you, I'd go like Nescafe Dolce Gusto on facebook, just incase they have another awesome giveaway like the one last month. It ended 12/31/11, but everyday they were giving away 150 machines!!
The coffee is really good, but my favorite would have to be the Chococino, I have a killer sweet tooth, It smelled so good brewing, its also super fast, and smooth, The chocolate was creamy, and just perfectly the right amount of sweetness. The milk/cream was awesome. I loved switching the capsules, made me feel like I knew what I was doing, Lol.
The machine is super easy to use, theres simple, picture-step by step directions on how to make each drink, and nescafe also has a rewards program for buying drinks.
Pros: Fast Cups of Coffee, Variety of different flavors, Easy to Use, Tastes great
Cons: It's a little loud, but I'd rather hear that in the morning than a whiney 1 year old! So it's all good.

Lipogen PS Plus BzzReport
I'm BzzAgent Greenvics~ For Bzzreport Lipogen PS Plus,
I just started taking these about 2 weeks ago, I usually take a multivitamin, and fish oil in the morning, I've been taking the Lipogen PS Plus, as well. I've experienced no side effects, I do seem to be remembering more, especially tasks I need to have done, ASAP. Which is not a bad thing. I started taking the pills because my son just turned a year old, and with him already mastering walking I need to multitask things alot more.
Lipogen PS Plus, contains PS (phosphatidylserine) and a supporting phospholipid called PA (phosphatidic acid)? This combination of nutrients can help energize your mood and memory. I don't take prescription drugs, and I think there are always other ways to feel better than becoming a zombie from a cocktail of chemically made pills.
I will continue to take the Lipogen for the next two months, and blog about it again. See if theres any changes. I will hand the coupons out once I feel its safe.
I received Lipogen PS Plus for free, for being a BzzAgent.

Smurf Party 2011
Crowdtap asked us to throw a smurf party, so we did!
We LOVE the smurfs, and had fun watching the new Smurfs The Movie, along with old episodes, like this one on youtube.
This month has been so busy, so I combined his birthday party, with a smurfs party. Everyone always wants to dress up as a smurf? I dressed my 1 year old up in an outfit his Gaga made him to be Azrael.
He's super cute. We also colored, and set up the smurf Christmas village. Haha, Not everyone can say they have the smurfs under their christmas tree!
We also ate blue cupcakes, and I tried teaching the kids to sing LALA, the 3 year old was, but the 1, and 2 year old just looked at me like whaa? What are these little blue funny things. They loved the Smurfs.
Here's the coloring book I've been saving! So this was perfect. It was also the first time my little man got to color with his cousins. That by itself were memories in the making too.
