What's All The Fuss About?

Wed, 21 Aug 2002 22:46:16 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - Everyone told me when I was pregnant that I HAD to have a Diaper Genie. I received one as a shower gift. Once the nursery was finished, I pulled it out of the box and set it up. Thank God I didn't wait until my baby was born. It took me over a half...

Fifteen minutes for myself

Wed, 21 Aug 2002 17:32:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - Since Fisher Price recommended this toy starting at 0 months, I purchased this for my daughter when she was 6 weeks old. She showed no interest, however, a two year old that visited us loved it. He wasn't interested in the hanging toys, but enjoyed...

No Need to Wake Up Baby

Thu, 13 Jun 2002 11:24:56 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - When I was expecting our first child, I did a lot of research on baby equipment, and asked friends and relatives for their recommendations. The Evenflo On My Way was the overwhelming favorite car seat. Even my OB recommended it. I found mine on E-bay,...

Go ahead! Kiss!

Sun, 17 Jun 2001 12:36:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - I've tried a lot of long wearing lipsticks (Avon, Ultima II, Clinique, etc.), but none of them have held up like Revlon Colorstay. No, it won't last all day. But when I put it on in the morning, it lasts through kissing my husband good-bye, a cup of...

The Superhero of Garden Tools

Wed, 28 Jun 2000 22:34:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - I had a great afternoon battling evil forces that lurk in my garden. Two years ago, I planted a perennial that someone gave me call a Blue Trumpet Flower, however, I did not realize it would be so invasive. Within one season its small, compact 6"...

Luxury Feel Without Luxury Price

Tue, 27 Jun 2000 22:02:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - After a life of driving "rust buckets", I finally convinced my husband that he needed a new vehicle image. He test drove several makes and models, and almost settled for a Toyota Camry. A trip to the Honda dealership changed all that. He...

Great Soul Food!!!

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 23:34:40 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - I've been three times, and I can't wait to go again. There are no bad dishes on the menu and no shortage of choices. Go with a group of people that are willing to share so you can try lots of stuff. The food is lightly spiced, so even dishes you'd...

Pub Crawls and T-shirt Shops

Tue, 15 Feb 2000 21:36:49 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - I have to admit, it wasn't all bad, but I won't be rushing back.

First, the good points. The weather was beautiful. I was there over the July 4th weekend, and even then the heat wasn't unbearable, and the afternoon showers were brief. The...

Sun, 9 Jan 2000 18:00:39 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - I was looking for 4 wheel drive, affordable, dependable transportation that could carry a little freight. The Subaru Outback Sport is a dream come true.

If you've ever had an older Suburu - maybe a Loyale from the 80s, you'll be amazed at the...

A Great Place to Start!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - I'm a native Vermonter, but only started skiing two years ago. My husband, an avid skier of 20+ years, brought me to Killington and signed me up for a half-day Level I, Perfect Turn Clinic.

After seeing a short film describing what to wear,...

Can't Believe It's Digital

Sun, 9 Jan 2000 15:58:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author SwishyVT - PC Magazine recently rated Kodak DC-280 the best digital camera. With so many on the market today, I took their advice. Color me impressed!! The photographic quality is amazing.

I stayed away from digital cameras for quite awhile. I just...
