The ABC Bird Conservatory has made big strides in saving the Thick Billed Parrot. Thanks to their great efforts the thick Billed Parrot (TBP) has come back from the brink of distinction.

Welcome to my very first blog review with a giveaway! Good luck to you and me both! When you think about eating your favorite dessert, what comes to mind? Now, imagine that being 10 times better. Are you with me so far? You know, the dessert that is so good it makes you feel all warm and gooey inside while it's melting across your taste buds until you feel a sense of euphoria. Okay, that may be a tad over board but you get my drift. Recently I had the pleasure of trying a gourmet cake from Bake Me A Wish . We tried the Peanut Butter Mousse cake. Let me tell ya, I had no hesitations about doing this review! I asked my son to help me with this review,(he picked the cake) he was quick to say yes.

Well after reading some of the health reasons for using TTVCO in the book I received with my jar of TTVCO , I decided to try to be a little sneaky.

That's because even though the TTVCO has a great coconut smell and taste, when you cook wit

I got paid to shop and do my taxes!

  I needed to shop for my Granddaughter's Birthday, So I decided to check on one of my  apps to see how many points  I've accumulated  It's called  Mobile Performance Meter . From their site: ( I know, you're thinking.. ok, so what's the catch? Do you take my personal information and sell it? Do you install something untrustworthy on my phone?   Nope, nothing of the sort.  Here's the deal -- do you remember those Verizon ads, where the guy in glasses is walking around and saying, "can you hear me now?"  Actually, mobile carriers like Verizon and AT&T really do that. They are constantly paying people to go to various locations, and report on call quality, internet quality and so on.  And now, they want to pay YOU to do the same thing!   These companies want to pay people just like you to tell them how well your phone is working. And to make that super easy for you, we made an application, the Mobile Performance Meter, that automatically
