The days are heating up!

They are USDA Organic, Non GMO Project Verified, and come at a reasonable price ofa bout $3.20 - $3.49.   Make sure you read more about it here!  Best of all, I'm happy to announce that one of my lucky readers will win 2 bottles of Agua Fresca as the prize.

Having fun in the summer time can get a little....expensive. And I don't know about you but I tend to run out of ideas really fast when it comes to thinking of ways that I can have fun or help others have fun.

Can it be that back to school is just around the corner? I just recently accepted that summer has begun! I do have to say that I really miss the whole back to school lead up - from buying supplies to preparing for new starts and new teachers (or professors). It's just a fun process to me. And I know that technology matters SO much when it comes to making the grade, especially when I got to college it mattered a lot.  I remember all those online classes, I appreciated the existence of my laptop and being able to have access to good technology to help me with projects. If this sounds like you or the kiddo in your life, I want to tell you about some GREAT deals that are happening with HP.

By the way I'm very much into the idea of a touch screen laptop so this laptop is definitely in my future (I hope!

I had the chance to review the Culer Evaporative Cooler. Do you know what an evaporative cooler is? Well, if you don't know, it works very differently from an air conditioner. Evaporative coolers use water to extract heat from the air when it evaporates (which reduces the temperature of the air).  The Culer technology uses micro-droplets that simply flash evaporate which makes for better cooling.

So I set this up in the back bedroom that gets a pretty decent cross breeze. The Culer is really easy to set up. You just pour water into the back of it. I set it up so it coordinated with fans that I have in the window to really let the cooler air flo
