Amazon, You Rock!

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Amazon, I’d still totally make out with you. Seriously. If you are a regular reader here, you may remember a post I wrote last year about Frustration Free Packaging. Basically, they got rid of the annoying clamshells and twisty ties, and all you have to do is open a box. Brilliant, isn’t it? I thought so and wrote a post about it. That lead to an interview with the New York Times. That was pretty cool but not as cool as what I woke up to this morning.

That’s me!!!!! So welcome new traffic!!!! And well, I am super excited. I think I need to write more posts about making out with my favorite companies (Hello Best Buy! Hello Toy Companies! LOL).

In all seriousness, I love Amazon. I order from them a lot (umm like last week) and I still think this is a genius idea. I love that they are watching what their customers are saying about them and that they linked to me! Happy Monday!

Talking Turkey & Help Me Please

Thursday, November 6th, 2008

I wish I had some great Thanksgiving stories. However, we normally end up going to somebody elses house for Thanksgiving, so I dont’ have to cook. Ever. Honestly, it is nice. However, this year my parents are coming here for Thanksgiving, so I have to cook my own dinner (with some help from my mom I hope! Though she won’t be coming up till Thanksgiving day itself, so I may not have as much help as I’d like! They are coming here so I have some company doing some Black Friday shopping (though my mom is refusing to go stand outside at Best Buy at 3 am. Yes, I am that dedicated. LOL)

I have a feeling this Thanksgiving I will have a ton of material to post about regarding my experience. I don’t think Bill and I have ever made a real turkey by ourselves. That is why its nice to know that Butterball has a Turkey Talk-Line. You can call 1-800-BUTTERBALL and talk to their meal preparation experts (writing that phone number down myself), or you can visit Butterball.com for Web chats with a few bloggers – Chris Jordan (Notes from the Trenches), Susan Wagner (Friday Playdate), and Roxanna (Miguelina) on November 11, 18 and 25 from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. CST. They will answer all your turkey related questions. Now, if any of you have any advice for me, I’ll gladly take it. We just won’t tell anyone.
