Even if you’re looking to hire me as a model or spokesperson for an upcoming promotion or campaign, check out my site and take a look at some of my Portfolio Photos.
Maybe you’d like to find out how to become a fitness model…
Of course there’s beauty tips and “girlie stuff”, but I talk about everything from salt in our diets, to traveling the country, to whatever I happen to be thinking about that day – Life in General!
No doubt, you’ll find something fabulous your Mom will like, and you won’t have to use that “designer money” to get it!
1. Figure out your mom’s favorite color – Does she light bright colors, patterns or neutral colors?
2. What style of purse does she like? – Does she like big, small, a clutch?
3. Does she have a lot of stuff to put in her purse and does she need a bunch of compartments?
4. Is there a certain designer she’s crazy for? Does she wear jewelry from a certain designer or clothes?
For Example: Is your mom a serious organizer? If she is, she’ll need a purse with adequate compartments instead of one big, deep hole where everything will get lost. She won’t use the purse or she’ll be very frustrated with it.
Awesome…Now, you’re equipped with a basic knowledge of what to buy her – now, go find a great handbag for her!!!

Honestly, refinishing furniture and reupholstering isn’t that difficult at all…
…It takes a little elbow grease and some patience and it’s done!
Maybe your Mother has an antique piece of furniture she’s been meaning to have refinished, or something that’s sentimental to her that could use a good sprucing up.
This is a great resource for restoring antique furniture:
What about a chair she loves that no longer goes with the rest of the updated decor? Reupholster it with a fabulous fabric from your fabric store that will look perfect!
Your Mother will be so pleased and she’ll have a “new” piece of furniture to play with and move around to just the right spot in her sitting room or foyer.
When refinishing, you’ll need some sandpaper, possibly some Continue Reading…
As our parents age, it gets more and more difficult for them to get the jobs around the house done like they used to.
Gardening is one of those jobs!
Our mothers still want to appreciate the beautiful flowers and the bounty from their tomato plants, but are unable to tend the garden or even get them planted.
You have a few different choices here to help your mom out.
1. Prepare the Soil for Planting – This can be a very difficult task if you have to rototill the soil. You’ll have to clean the area of debris, last year’s leaves, turn and fluff the soil and rid it of weeds.
2. Planting Flowers, Plants and/or Veggies or Seeds – There are a wide variety of plants out there and an even wider variety of mother’s opinions and tastes! You can either Continue Reading…
I’m not really sure how I feel about the review on Colonix, but I did want to share with you this person’s view.
Maybe you’ve experienced the same issues and maybe not…Let us know by commenting in the comment box below!
Our bodies are very complex and everything is related to the next in the body.
When you are cleansing your colon or “detoxing”, toxins are often being released into your bloodstream from your organs to be metabolized or discarded, your colon is cleaning out and it is a serious process…
…One that should be taken seriously too.
It is important to do your research before you use just any old product, but cleansing your body can be, at times painful, uncomfortable, cause you cramps, bloating, have you retaining water (which could be why this person had swollen fingertips – I get swollen fingertips when I drink Gatorade and Powerade – often due to an electrolyte imbalance).
Now, we do cleanses and fasts with different juices often for detox and we experience a wide array of issues – that’s just the reason you’re detoxing – to get rid of the bad stuff in your body.
Especially if you’ve never done a cleanse or detox, you may very well experience “side effects” that are more severe and more prominent than a “veteran” cleanser…
…Be careful out there – you only have one body! Make good decisions with your lifestyle and the food and products you put into it.
Your body needs to be maintained – take it seriously!

Do you know what the term “full coverage car insurance” means?
If you don’t, you should, especially if you own a car, or are in the market to buy one, or if you’re ready to get car insurance or switch insurance companies.
Collision coverage is pretty self-explanatory – anything to do with covering you if you get into a collision of any kind, including medical care of passengers, and damage to vehicles and property, etc.
Comprehensive coverage includes anything that happens to your car outside of collision – such as theft, vandalism, hail, hitting an animal or object in the street, etc.
Be sure you know what you’re talking about before you make your insurance calls or search on the internet!

What’s Your Blog N’ Butter?
Kimberly Edwards
P.S. By the way, we’re selling our Jaguar S-Type above right now, if you’re interested! Check out the details Here:
This year may be a “budget” year for you for giving gifts.
If so, you may want to check out my “Budget Mother’s Day Gifts” posts I’ve been making here on BlogNButter.com.
Taking care of your mother’s pets may be a great option – now, I don’t just mean pet-sitting…
Photo above: From left to right – Precious, Kaptain, Kurious, Sugar & Knosey – Precious & Sugar are my mom’s…
…I mean, going over to your mom’s house, taking the dog for a walk, then giving them a bath and grooming them by giving them a good brushing or whatever it is that breed requires.
If your mom’s dog is a terrier, almost any type of terrier, check out how to professionally groom them, step-by-step on video with a “terrier cut” here:
If you are on a budget this year and want to give your Mother a great present from the heart, think about cleaning her home or a part of it, from top to bottom!
Why not clean the kitchen – every nook and cranny – even clean out the fridge and reorganize the food!
If someone wanted to come clean my kitchen from top to bottom, I would be a happy camper, especially organizing the tupperware cupboard!
Want to make your life easier cleaning?
If you haven’t tried those “magic eraser” type sponges, you HAVE to and quickly!
You can clean anything with these babies…When you clean, they sort of Continue Reading…
Well…maybe it’s Edward, but she does like Twilight too! LOL
My mother’s read the entire series and I couldn’t even begin to tell you how many times she’s watched the movie.
I rented it for her and she must have watched it 10 times…I had to return it, so she went and bought it!
She says, every time she watches it, she likes Edward more and more…
She read the series of books prior to watching the movie, so she already had a preconceived idea of what Edward looked like in her head, played by Robert Pattinson in the movie.
When she first watched the movie, she wasn’t sure about how Edward looked…Well, she’s sure now! LOL
Consider purchasing the book series for your Mom for Mother’s Day!
Just as when you were a child and brought your mom some terrible looking pancakes with egg shell pieces for breakfast on Mother’s Day…
…So will your mother love a gift from the heart even today!
Let’s face it, we’re all on a budget right now.
So, instead of buying that expensive bouquet of flowers that’s just going to die anyway, go ahead and bake your mom some Banana Pecan Muffins, bring them over for a quiet brunch with tea and spend some time together…
Isn’t that what Mother’s Day is really about? Celebrating your Mother!!!
Well, I found a website that has nothing but franchises for sale, separated into different categories, ready for the taking – FranchiseGator.com
I know that in an economy such as this, your JOB is on the line at all times…You never know if your company will tell you they’re downsizing, laying you off or eliminating your job completely.
You don’t know, from one day to the next, if your company will be bought out…
Gain some control if you have an entrepreneurial spirit and think about a franchise opportunity.

1. In order to score a homerun on this purchase, you’ll either want to buy your mother the perfume she wears all the time, so she can have a refill.
When you go this route, your mother will be flattered that you pay attention to her and the fragrance she wears – also, it shows your approval of how you like her choice.
For example: My mother’s favorite perfume is White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor (for many, many years now). She is always ecstatic to get another bottle that she doesn’t have to go get herself!
2. This requires more detective work. Either you’ll have to listen in your conversations with her about a new fragrance she smelled that was fabulous, or take her to the department store and just watch what she migrates to at the perfume counter…She may even ask you how you like a particular perfume.
For example: You’re at a family get together and your mom hugs your aunt and says, “Wow, you smell good! What are you wearing?” Listen in or say the same to your aunt and ask her that question!
Both of these ways are the best way to go about finding a great perfume for the mother in your life.
What’s my pick? If someone wants to spend a lot of money on me, I like Shalimar by Geurlain or Ysatis de Givenchy:
