This week Matter of Cents and I chose the theme of “series finales” to share with you all.  There are a number of shows that either recently concluded their seasons, or will be doing so in the next week or so.  Here are a few I wanted to share with you all.

What would you do if tomorrow you woke up and didn’t remember your spouse, didn’t even recall that you had one?

The Vow - Having Dinner At Their Favorite Spot

Last night hubby and I had a dinner and a movie date night.  I had been wanting to see The Vow, and though my husband thought it was going to be “kind of a chick flick”, he agreed to watch it with me.  It’s a fairly new release, so I was concerned that it might not be available many places.

Mother’s Day is Sunday!  I can’t believe it, because that means it’s half-way through the month of May and it’s gone way too fast.  In honor of Mother’s Day, Matter of Cents and I are sharing our favorite mom-inspired pins from Pinterest.  We’d love for you to share yours, too; see how you can at the bottom of the post.

Happy Mother’s Day to you all.  And a special Happy Mother’s Day to my Mom and Gram. Continue reading »

Last week my husband and I had the pleasure of attending an advanced screening of Marvel’s The Avengers.  We knew right away that it was going to be a big hit: lots of action, laughter, and even a tiny bit of romance.  What we didn’t know, though, was just how big of a hit it was going to be.

It turned out to be one for the record books – literally.  The Avenger’s ended up posting over $200 million in it’s domestic debut, making it the highest-grossing domestic debut of all time.  It grossed $69.7 million on Saturday the 5th, which is the highest Saturday take of all time.

This is not a movie to miss, folks.  Seriously. Continue reading »

It’s almost Mother’s Day, and I’ve been thinking about what to send my Mom.  One of the challenges of living so far away, is that it does limit your gift choices somewhat.  It either has to be something that will fit in a box to mail, or that can be delivered by someone else.  Sometimes I’ve sent gift cards; they’re definitely easy to mail, but a tiny bit impersonal for a special holiday.

One great solution is flowers from Teleflora!  Teleflora has dozens of beautiful arrangements that would be perfect for Mother’s Day gift-giving.  You’ll definitely be sure to find something that fits the style and personality of your mom – or any one, for that matter.

Teleflora Fashionista Blooms Bouquet

Teleflora Fashionista Blooms Bouquet

I’ve been trying to decide which I would consider to be my favorite, and it’s been a challenge as they really are all very pretty.  If I had to choose, however, I think the Fashionista Blooms would be the arrangement I’d pick to send my Mom.  I love the raffia and ribbon wrap around the middle and the colors would compliment her kitchen or enclosed porch so nicely.

What about you?  If you were going to order flowers for Mother’s Day, which bouquet would you choose and why?  Feel free to leave a direct link to your choice in the comments below!
