Poop-Pouri

unless your not human everyone I know poops. Ever been at work or in public and all of a sudden that rumbling in your stomach begins? Maybe the cause is your morning coffee on an empty stomach, or perhaps the cause is the lunch you woofed down an hour ago before diving back into your work load. Whatever the cause most of us share the same fear of using a public bathroom or the office bathroom because of the aweful smell and embarrassment of others knowing you just pooped. Well in my travels I have found a pooping life saver. This little bottle, when sprayed in toilet prior to using it will make your poop smell wonderful. Who would have thought? But it's true, the product is called poop-pouri and the names of the different scents will make you chuckle. Such names like crapsmanship, ship happens, trap a crap, call on the wild, and royal flush just to name a few. The companies slogan is " Own your shit". Wondering how it works? Spritz 3-5 sprays into the toilet bowl on the water surface. Proceed to # 2, the oil will create a barrier which will then trap the odor, allowing you to walk out of the bathroom embarrassment free.

The cost to some may be pricy however keep in mind you get what you paid for. Those $ store sprays can't compare to this spritz. Keep in mind you can also order a large refill bottle and since the product is actually an oil and in a spritz bottle rather than a spray bottle if used properly it will last. Trust me we poop a lot in our home and one bottle has lasted us a month. 

Grab your bottle of poop- pours which can be purchased in sizes 4ml for your purse, 20z, 4oz, 8oz and 16 oz refill bottles. 

This was a great Idea I only wished I thought of it myself. I also love the cute gift sets they have which is sure to make the person receiving it chuckle. 

I am rating this product HOT!!!

A Place Where Everybody Can Have Soul!!!!

Beacon is a very small and cute town Since I have moved here 5 years ago I have watched Main St grow. While the small town does have a few quaint spots to eat the one thing we lacked was a good ole down south soul food spot, that is until last week. Married couple Micol and Annagjid recently took over the Bona Grill located on 469 Fishkill Ave in Beacon. After a lot of hard work and late hours renovating, last week Virgo's Sip N Soul Cafe was open for business. Not only did they add a menu but they brought a mixture of class and soul into the old place, they have a decent size menu with daily specials. The menu consists of items to please any type of eating habit, from fried chicken, to fish, to pulled pork, to even a veggie plate, to name a few. They have the usual soul food sides such as mac n cheese, cabbage, collard greens and what I call smack your mama yams. And of course what would a soul food dinner be without corn bread? so with every dinner you will receive a slice of homemade corn bread to enjoy. Last Friday I purchased my 1st meal for myself and my children, I must tell you I was surprisingly impressed. The food is not only cooked fresh but let me tell you this is good ole down south soul food cooking. I prided myself on my yams and anyone who has tasted my cooking will tell you the same, well I'm not afraid to admit this place has put my yams to shame. My children who are very picky eaters even enjoyed the food and although they would never admit it to me for fear of me never cooking for them again ;-) they even really enjoyed the yams. In chatting with Micol he stated that they have a great support system and this is a family affair, he also stated that they have plans and ideas of hosting different events like a Karaoke night. As of right now hours of operation are as follows; dining hours Thurs-Sun 11am-9:30pm, lounge hours Mon-Sunday 12pm-until. My first reaction was these people are brave this Country is in a recession who would dare open a place during this time. But after tasting the food and chatting with the owners I realize it's not bravery but faith they possess, and faith is sometimes all you need. Combining their faith with great food, inviting, and pleasant atmosphere, friendly people, and a whole lotta soul you get Virgo's Sip N Soul Cafe, which by the way I learned got it's name because both Micol & Annagjid are both Virgo's. So the next time your hungry don't forget about Virgo's Sip N Soul Cafe A Place Where Everybody Can Have Soul. Remember to taste the yams I promise you that you won't be disappointed, You can also phone in your orders for pick up by calling (845) 831-1543.





So Just so we're clear I'm rating this Spot as HOT!!!!!!

The Best Guacamole around!!!!

Guacamole hasn't always been my favorite, I do enjoy it but usually when my brother or someone I know makes it. There are very few, well actually let me rephrase that there is only one place that can make it and make it GREAT. The restaurant is named CAFE MAYA, the food there all together is great but, I must say if your a lover of good guacamole, and margarita's this is without a shadow of doubt the place. They also have a Mariachi band that plays music while you dine. They currently have 2 locations one in Fishkill NY and the other in Wappingers Falls NY, they also cater food for any occasion.

My Pacifica

2 years ago when I became pregnant I decided I needed a bigger car, I had a Alero which had been through the mill and then some. I set out on a quest to purchase a used larger car, with gas prices on the rise my dream truck the Escalade was not an option. I contemplated on a mini van but I just was not ready to become "The soccer mom", even though I had a teen who played soccer, even though the mini van had everything I was looking for in regards to space, easy access, and trunk room I still was not willing to budge. So finally after several weeks I saw the Chrysler Pacifica and fell in love, this one was fully loaded, nice color, roomy and the price was right. So needless to say I purchased it and it only took me 3 months to realize I would HATE it. Don't get me wrong it drives great, has more room than the Alero because of the 3rd row seating. My problem with the car is the trunk room, it's horrible I had to downsize my toddlers stroller because her old one would not fit without putting down the 3rd row seat. If I go on vacation with the children that is in driving distance, well I better hope they don't want to bring any girlfriends because I'm sorry guys but there simply just isn't any room for luggage and extra people. So if your looking into purchasing this vehicle I would suggest you consider all aspects of your life. If you have more than 2 children and need a lot of trunk room this car may not be the one for you. Do your shopping and always remember to role play your life when making a decision on a car. As for me I'm looking into another Vehicle, I haven't decided which one As of yet but I will tell you this trunk space is right up there on the list next to safety ;-)





SO I'm rating the Chrysler Pacifica as NOT
