MarksvilleandMe reviews 6 Foot Extension Cables 

by Solid Cordz


I received this after we had just searched all over our near by stores for an extension cord that would do what we wanted and be safe for our children to use in their room. The only downsize I see for these cords is you can only plug in one item but if that item is a surge protector with multiple slots then you are in business.

We live in a very old house with huge rooms. Most of the rooms have only two plugs and isn't always convenient when you want to plug something in so we use extension cords to get the job done. 

We look for the shortest length we need for the task at hand which is also the safest way, especially when you are dealing with children living in your house. Since you can only plug one item in at a time we don't have to worry so much and have given the list of don't to the kids so they know what not to do with an extension cord. 

These cords have a 3 prong plug, but you can use either a two or three prong item in it. These are very useful and have found much use in our home. 

You can buy a 2 pack of 6 Foot Extension Cables by Solid Cordz on Amazon.

Guide 

written by
Julie Schoen

I have been doing yoga on and off since my brothers taught me way back in the 70's. It has helped me stay limber, yes even at 370+ pounds I can still touch my toes, at least when my Fibromyalgia is not flaring up that is.

I remember my first pregnancy and my Lamaze class. They were teaching us stretches and I was the only one who could do them fully. All of the mothers asked me how I did them so easily and I said I had been doing yoga moves to keep my body more flexible.

When I say I do yoga, the first thing people see is my weight. Yes yoga can help with losing weight but for me it is about movement. My husband will even tell people I do it, and he has seen the good it can do. 

My Dr. says that my Yoga and Meditation has kept me from feeling most of the pain while keeping me more flexible. I never knew that I would have Fibromyalgia. Actually as I write this I am unable to do any movement because I am having spasms that are on my right side down to my spine then up and around the back of my neck spreading to my left side. 

For this I take muscle relaxers and so far nothing has helped, not even heat, rest, or light stretches. Last year when I got this for the first time it was just down on my lower spine and was about the size of a fist, but this is causing pain in a much larger area so my movement is very limited. 

Once I am better I will be back on my Yoga mat doing my thing. I have a daughter who wants me to teach her more moves. She has just took interest in it again. Perfect timing because the moves in  Mommy Does Yoga Prenatal Yoga Guide are gentle enough to be done while pregnant so they will be nice easy moves to get her into doing Yoga more often.

Mommy Does Yoga Prenatal Yoga Guide will guide you through yoga during pregnancy, but remember these poses can be done before and after pregnancy as well. Remember to always check with your Dr. before starting an exercise regimen. 

You can purchase Mommy Does Yoga Prenatal Yoga Guide on Amazon.

One reader will win a copy of the Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga Workout DVD & Mommy Does Yoga Prenatal Yoga Guide. Open to U.S. residents only. Starts on 9/30 and ends on 10/15. MarksvilleandMe wishes everyone who enters Good Luck!

MarksvilleandMe reviews Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga Workout 

DVD


I really enjoyed working with a DVD instead of just looking at poses in a book. A DVD really helps you see how you are supposed to sit and what to do. Also it is like doing Yoga with another person instead of by yourself. 

Now my daughter can even do Yoga without me because she can just see what the Yoga instructor on the DVD is doing and know she is doing the moves right. She also doesn't have to stop when my Fibromyalgia is flaring up. 

Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga Workout will teach you how to do Yoga through pregnancy, but remember these poses can be done before and after pregnancy as well. Remember to always check with your Dr. before starting an exercise regimen. 

You can purchase Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga Workout DVD on Amazon.

MarksvilleandMe reviews Gallery Essentials Silicone Baking

 Cups


Before this set of Silicone Baking Cups I owned a set of heart shaped baking cups that I used for making multi-colored crayons to give away for Valentines Day at the children's school. I never did use them to bake in. 

Bazaar I know but here I am trying out the Galley Essentials Silicone Baking Cups and I am in love. They are easy to clean, and much more sturdier then the papers liners you can buy. I also like how my cupcakes and brownies come out in one piece.


No one likes to have the broken cupcake. No more waste with handheld treats here. Galley Essentials Silicone Baking Cups deliver what they say. My 11 year old daughter made Brownies in them tonight and she was even surprised by how easy the Galley Essentials Silicone Baking Cups were to wash. 

Maybe I can get her to the do the dishes more often. Probably not but at least I have these great silicone baking cups to make treats to bribe her with now and then. 

You can purchase Galley Essentials Silicone Baking Cups on Amazon.
