30,000 Feet Up
2008-06-05 01:59:00 There I was, sitting in my seat about 35,000 feet about sea level going hundreds of miles an hour. The only thing I had to keep myself company were a couple of bags of Trader Joe’s wasabi pees and the entire first season of The Wire. My feet were still cramped up from ... More About: Feet

Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix: Cinna-spin Cookies
2008-05-07 01:32:00 Cookies are my favorite thing to snack on at work sometime between 2:30 to 4:00. Sure I’ve had lunch at 12:30, but there’s something about that in between time that craves tea and cookies. Rather than sneaking a walk to the vending machine I’ve decided to bake and bring in some cookies. Honestly my experience with ... More About: Snacks , Sugar , Cookies , Betty , Spin

Sail on Silver Girl err?.Brown Siren. [Starbucks Pike Place Roast]
2008-04-18 23:44:00 I?ve taken to writing these reviews out by hand before typing them. I?m not sure why this sudden change but I feel it is direct result of the World Café featuring so many Folk-Rock acts since Spring began. So, as I listen to troubadours I am compelled to write in a notebook rather than a ... More About: Reviews , Drinks , Starbucks , Brown , Silver
Re-Hashed Browns: [Dunkin? Donuts Hash Browns Hate the Letter ?G?]
2008-04-10 00:28:00 My passion for Dunkin? Donuts is well documented. The aforementioned review should also point out the many faults I find at Dunkin? Donuts. Not the least of which is their desire to expand the menu in strange and perplexing ways. More and more Dunks -as my co-workers irritatingly refer to it- are attempting to ...

The Water of Life
2008-04-07 19:57:00 Snapple. I have fond memories of this consistently delicious tea drink dating back to high school. I attended a private catholic high school (not all girls, sorry guys) despite the high tuition, resources were limited. Our sad cafeteria contained a dilapidated vending machine with nothing tempting, unless the lunch special that day was microwave pizza–ew. Junior ... More About: Life , Reviews , Drinks , Water

Ferro Cosmetics: Made in the USA
2008-03-22 17:06:00 Seems like manufactured items are hardly ever marked with the Made In USA stamp. Can you recall the last time you saw Made in the USA on something?

Festival of Lites: [Curves Honey Crunch Cereal, Curves Chocolate Peanut Gra
2007-12-09 23:26:00 Frankly, Curves products are not for me. They are not aimed at me. Even the packaging is designed to appeal to people who are specifically not me. Everything from The Color Purple layout to the mid-air frolicking action shot points directly away from me. When I was first tasked with reviewing these products my goal ...
