Kodak is running a great promotion now called "Print & Prosper," and in doing so is offering ONE of my readers a $110 Visa Gift card. The idea behind this campaign is to "put your money in your wallet, not in your printer!" The dollar amount ($110) correlates with the "Kodak Save $110 Tour" which is traveling across the country to show how families can save on average $110 per year on ink with Kodak's All-in-One inkjet printers. The tour is a part of Kodak's "Print & Prosper" marketing campaign, reinforcing how Kodak's All-in-One inkjet printers are revolutionizing the inkjet printer business by offering the lowest total ink replacement cost in the industry ($14.99 MSRP for color and $9.99 MSRP for black).

Author Spotlight - Lynn Austin

A friend of mine introduced me to Lynn Austin about a year ago with "Eve's Daughters," and I have been devouring every other book of hers since then, when I have time. Her novels tend to involve the lives of women who cross paths and are forever changed because of it, or young women in search of something, yet find something opposite of what they were searching for. I love how she develops the characters almost instantly, and I am always drawn into the story in the first few pages, wanting to read more.

She writes Christian Fiction novels which I find very entertaining and also encouraging, sometimes inspiring. Some of the characters in the novels have faced such hardships it makes me appreciate the blessings in my life all the more. A few of the novels focus around a historical time such as the World Wars which peaks my interest in history, which as a student was my least favorite subject, so you know she must be a talented author to do so.


The collection of novels I have read by this author include:

* A Proper Pursuit
* Hidden Places
* Eve's Daughters
* All She Ever Wanted
* Candle in the Darkness (Refiner's Fire series)
* Fire by Night (Refiner's Fire series)
* A Light to My Path (Refiner's Fire series)

I am reading "A Woman's Place" right now and love it. I've been reading almost non stop stop for the past 3 nights. It's about 4 women from very different walks of life all coming together to make a difference for the war effort, and in doing so, form friendships that transcend their station in life.


Lynn Austin Books Remaining on my list:

Gods and Kings (Chronicles of the Kings series)
Song of Redemption (Chronicles of the Kings series)
The Strength of His Hand (Chronicles of the Kings series)
Faith of My Fathers (Chronicles of the Kings series)
Among the Gods (Chronicles of the Kings series)
Though Waters Roar
Until We Reach Home




I can't wait to read more books by this author!!!

Holiday Hoopla Series - Naturally Nora is Naturally Delicious!

From Naturally Nora's website:

There's no reason dessert has to be full of artificial ingredients or things that are bad for you.
We think that great tasting food should be created in a kitchen, not a laboratory. Unlike most food companies, that is what we do. We pride ourselves on partnering with leading natural ingredient suppliers, use environmentally-friendly packaging, and produce our products in facilities certified to be among the best in the country. This ensures that we provide the highest-quality, all-natural products on the market.

While these mixes are not gluten-free. Their frosting mixes do not contain wheat except for the Surprising Stars variety, and all of their products except for Doubly Fudgy brownies (which contain soy) can be prepared dairy-free and/or soy-free.


These mixes are great for lactose intollerant individuals like my sister or people who need to watch their soy intake. On top of appealing to individuals with dietary restrictions, they would appeal to everyone else because they are so tasty.

So far I have tried the Sunny Yellow Cake Mix, Alota dots Cake Mix, the Vanilla Icing, and the Cheerful Chocolate icing mixes, and my favorites so far are the Sunny Yellow Cake with the chocolate icing...yum!

If you have allergies, or know someone who has intolerances to lactose or soy, try buying them some cake, brownie, or icing mixes...or bake them a cake! You are sure to enjoy these!
