Cheap Identity Protection--Personal Paper Shredder

Fri, 8 Sep 2000 02:20:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - Our paper shredder was a Christmas gift from a family member. I had no idea at that time just how important personal security is. Identity theft is a serious, personal crime that should concern all of us. Taking the small step of shredding...

Nutro--For the Love of Your Dog

Wed, 26 Jul 2000 14:39:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - Growing up, I had a dog. We wanted the same for our children. Off we trotted to the various pounds to find a dog that suited our family. Once we found her, we had to then make decisions on how to best take care of her.

Years ago, there were...

Thu, 15 Jun 2000 15:19:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - OK, now I am all for this carb diet thing. In fact I have had good results. I have been searching for a quick meal replacement that is portable, and decided to try shakes. Atkins was the first one that I tried.

**First of all, do not expect...

Thu, 15 Jun 2000 14:46:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - Recently, I went to the eye doctor to renew my prescription for contact lenses. In the past I had worn non-disposable soft, which I hated, and Acuvue disposables. I LOVED my Acuvues! I was surprised when she said they had improved...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - After weeks of researching which camera would be best for our family, we finally jumped in with both feet. We are cutting our digital teeth on the Olympus 460Z, and owe a lot to EPINIONS for helping us to make this decision. I have...

Sun, 21 May 2000 21:01:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - Our beloved hot air popper is older than our marriage. My husband refuses to part with it because he feels it is the ONLY way to make popcorn reliably.

We have tried many different ways of making popcorn, using the Powerpop in...

Cyber Patrol: Annoying Big Brother

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 22:46:09 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - We didn't opt to purchase this program, it came bundled with our new computer. I liked the idea at first. I have children, I should protect them from the internet, right?

Well, in doing so, it blocks many more different things then they lead...

I've Had the Baby, Now WHERE'S My Body???

Wed, 12 Apr 2000 00:19:10 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - Oh boy, I stepped on that scale after having baby #3 and nearly threw it out the window. Why is it that weight is so much more fun to gain than it is to lose? I have had the baby, now why can't I fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes?

This book,...

Check out New show for KIDS!!

Mon, 10 Apr 2000 16:23:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - We turned on the TV to catch DRAGON TALES, and instead came up with this strange quirky show BETWEEN THE LIONS. My initial feeling was disappointment because we were so looking forward to adventures in Dragonland, but that was quickly replaced by SHEER...

WONDERLAND--revisited

Fri, 7 Apr 2000 14:16:01 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I gave rave reviews for the first Episode of WONDERLAND. The second episode is causing me to take this down a notch. The content and story line were very good, excellent even. However, the constant camera tricks made me nauseous. It made it...

Cornwell's Successor?

Thu, 6 Apr 2000 13:31:59 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - We found this novel on tape at a used book store. We frequently hear novels rather than read them due to a lot of road travel. Some are flops, some you drive around the block several times even though you are home because YOU JUST CAN'T STOP!!

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I purchased this product based on a suggestion from my lactation consultant. I had to go back to work, and I wanted to continue to breast feed. I needed the most efficient breast pump for the best price.

This product is very efficient. You...

Attention Caregivers

Wed, 5 Apr 2000 01:11:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I picked this book up at a huge tent sale of discounted paperbacks. Now I have to go and find it in Hardback! This is an unusual book. It says that Echo Heron is the author, but really she only wrote a portion of the book. The style alone is what...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 23:54:47 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I bought this game as part of a three pack from Hasbro. It was on sale, and came with boggle, and a crazy puzzle game. I was really excited! I love doing those jumbles in the paper! It even has a kids' section! So I ran home to load it up.

Profile SUPER Capacity

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 18:55:09 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - The dryer did not survive our move. Sadly, I had to put it out on the curb. I had purchased it used as part of an antiquated pair of laundry machines. I had no idea which was better, gas or electric, or even what brands I should be looking at, and now...

Tue, 4 Apr 2000 18:13:53 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - My washer died. It had been limping along for quite awhile, and I attempted to resuscitate it many times. Finally, it just got to the point where I could no longer put off replacing it. I had purchased this one used from someone so I had no idea where...

Echo Heron is my Hero

Sat, 1 Apr 2000 00:38:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - Echo Heron is the best author I have ever read in the subject of Nurses. The story that unfolds is told in her voice, my voice, any nurse's voice. As I sat and read, page after page, I found myself reliving my own experiences. She tells it better than...

Food for Thought

Fri, 31 Mar 2000 23:42:27 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - We bought this playset for our 3 year old. I am so tired of toys that do everything for you. Where is the imagination in today's kids? From the moment that I opened this package until right this very minute under my feet...he has been playing...

Dragon Tales--FINALLY

Fri, 31 Mar 2000 17:16:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I ran across this show completely by accident. Ever since then, our TV is on and tuned in every day for "Dragon Tales." My 3 year old hears the music, stops whatever it is he is doing, and is RUNNING full speed so as to not miss a single...

Couch Trip to WONDERLAND

Fri, 31 Mar 2000 16:30:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I watched the first episode of "Wonderland" last night. I usually don't watch ABC on Thursday nights but my regular show was a repeat. I think I may have to start taping the other show now. "Wonderland" WON me over.

JumpStart Spanish: Excellent Start

Thu, 30 Mar 2000 14:19:20 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author HawkinsRN - I purchased this to add to our learning library. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it is challenging enough for our nine year old to use to learn basic Spanish vocabulary. Having an interface to interact with while saying the words helps with...
