Five Products I Would Be Happy To Endorse...

This is the Pampered Chef Rice Cooker. Unlike my plug-in rice cooker, it cooks rice in 20 minutes flat in the microwave. It also doubles as a microwave cake pan, for a cake that can be made in 10 minutes flat. I love how every part fits easily into the dishwasher. My mom gave this to me as a gift at least a year ago and we use it 3-4 times a week. It's the best!

I've never been much of a flosser. Thus, my kids aren't learning to floss either. But my cousin's wife recommended this flosser for those in our family who don't floss and thus get cavities, and I LOVE it. I went from flossing 3-4 times a year to 3-4 times a week. It's just so easy to use and you don't have to cut the circulation off in your fingers to floss, either. Double bonus! I can't wait to see if my hygienist actually notices the difference next time I visit.

At 36, you would think I'd be more into wrinkle cream than acne cleanser, but alas, such are the joys of my life. Several months ago, I started breaking out with zits that would take weeks to heal. Since I started using this stuff twice a day, my face looks and feels fabulous! (And yes, my dear SIL who shall remain nameless, washing my face twice a day is working better than once a day!)

Here in the desert we are serious about deodorant. Since it's hot, sweaty weather more than 50% of the year, you gotta find the good stuff. I love this deodorant. I hope they never stop making it... it has 3-4 scents, all of which are pleasant, but not overbearing or obnoxious, it works better than any other deodorant I have tried, and they even sell it in bulk at Sam's Club!

I had to take my own picture of this product because I couldn't find one online anywhere, but I love these sponges. I buy them in two packs at Target and they are the best. My mom is a "dishcloth" person, but I hate the nastiness of dish clothes once they have been used. I wasn't really a sponge fan either, until I found these! Trust me, if you try them, I am sure you will love them!

Now, if I could only find someone who wants to pay me for all my kind words...
