rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marislet - Why a new car?

Five months ago I was driving along in my SUV, a 1999 Isuzu Rodeo, when I took a turn too fast and almost rolled the thing. It wasn't the first time, but with my 2 year old strapped in the back seat, it really shook me up...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marislet - A lot of homes these days have bi-fold doors. Ours has a lot of them. Unfortunately, one of these doors is on our pantry, not a place I want my little ones playing! My 3 year old opens the door and the next thing I know, both my girls have half the...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marislet - Rated R

Directed by: Bruce Paltrow

Ok, well, I’m guess I’m going against the grain here. I did actually like this movie. Maybe the fact that I don’t get out to see a lot of movies has something to do with it? I wouldn’t give it...

One love watching the birds shoot the sheriff

Tue, 21 Nov 2000 03:51:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author marislet -

A few years ago, I would have laughed at you if you told me I'd be listening to Reggae. I was a die hard Casey Kasem fan in the 80's listening to Americas Top 40 every Sunday morning. So what happened? I went to Jamaica to meet my internet love...

Sat, 4 Nov 2000 03:14:27 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author marislet - Like most other Sesame Street items, this board book is adorable. Elmo's Big Lift-&-Look Book is a very busy book too. The pages are just crammed full of picture flaps. This is a large book, so don't expect it to fit nicely on a bookshelf...
