I have skin that tends to get oily and break out so I needed a powder that would stop the shine, but not clog my pores. This mineral loose powder is terrific. I go a shade darker and it looks like I have a little tan. It is a tad expensive, but...   +

I bought a pair of these at half price and I still wear them after 5 years. They are warm, have good lining and the heel is perfect and skid resistant. Also, they stretch for a bigger leg.

Purdy's chocolates are very delicious. I especially like the assortment of boxed chocolates that they offer. The holiday specialties are my favorites. It is very rare to find chocolates made for St. Patrick's Day, but Purdy's always has something...   +

One of the best stories ever written. The book is so much more detailed than the movie. I love everything southern so this story makes me very happy. Scarlett and Rhett may be the best characters in literature. I look forward to seeing the movie...   +

This book was huge when it first came out. I used to check it out of the library all of the time. Then the movie came out. I used to dream about the chocolate factory and flying in the elevator. I still look at the movie whenever I catch it on...   +

Oh....I remember that book cover so well. Our elementary school was involved in the scholastic program and curious George was always the book I would pull out. My friends and I would read them to each other. Ah....childhood.

My mom got me a subscription to Seventeen from the age of 15 to 18...and I loved it. I actually kept a huge pile of them for a couple of decades, but finally decided to throw them out. It was a wonderful read when I was feeling down or upset...   +

I'm 48 and I still have my big collection of Archie comics from my youth. I spent endless summer days reading these over and over. I also have all of the digests. I'm thrilled that they are reissuing a lot of oldies online for Kindle.

Yankee Candle is such a happy place. The bright coloured candles with the huge number of scents is a girl's dream come true. The big pillar candles last a very long time and they seem to come up with new scents every season.

Michaels is a heavenly place for an artist as myself. I can buy all of my art supplies and home décor in one place. However, living in rural Quebec I will probably never see this store in my town. I still have to cross the border to enjoy this...   +
