I was very surprised when I accidentally came across the "Good Dog Coffee". I have to admit, I was curious because I really wanted to know what a Good Dog, had to do with coffee.

Turns out, the Good Dog Coffee company loves their dogs as much as their coffee. Makes sense. I guess I can relate to that.

If you've never heard of Good Dog Coffee, they are a company that markets Organic, grown in the shade, coffee beans. The company is a small family owned business, is the leading coffee retailer, coffee roaster and brand of custom-roasted specialty coffees from Puerto Rico and Bolivia. When you buy coffee from this company, you can rest assured you are actually getting certified oranic coffee.

"Delicate harvesting and processing together with a custom roast make this coffee one of the best coffees you will ever drink! This level of roasting maximizes coffee flavor and rich aroma. It is characterized by its low acidity and great after taste."

These beans are custom-roasted, meaning that they only roast them for you, after you place your order. How cool is that! It doesn't get any fresher!

So, maybe you are wondering why I care about coffee and why am I blogging about it. Well, I am blogging about it because I just recently added it to my store listings and you can purchase this coffee for yourself for $12.95 per 1 lb bag of certified, grown in the shade, organic coffee beans. One of the things I like about this too is that a 1 lb bag of coffee like this travels well and it's one of the perfect Travel Size, Sample Size food related items you can pack in your suitcase. You could even pack this in your carry on and still be ok in the security check point.  I really enjoy taking along my favorite coffee when I book a week long stay in a condo or timeshare unit.  It sure beats having to buy coffee at the nearest grocery store. Just be sure you ground the beans before you go or take a coffee grinder with you.

Check out my listings and read a little more about this really cool, organic, coffee.

We all know how great Granite countertops are and how tough they are when found in our kitchens, so wouldn't it make sense that anything made from Granite is going to have some value?

Imagine the, a Granite food warmer for your kitchen table. Not only does the granite part look great, it is durable, but now you have a way to keep your food warm while it sits on your table during a meal.

Granite hot plates are nothing new, but I'm surprised by how little they are actually used. Honestly, I had never even thought about how effective they are and I am one of the fussy people that hates my hot food served cold.

 Here is what Wikipedia says about Granite:

"Granite is nearly always massive (lacking internal structures), hard and tough, and therefore it has gained widespread use as a construction stone. The average density of granite is 2.75 g/cm3 and its viscosity at standard temperature and pressure is ~4.5 • 1019 Pa·s [1] . The word granite comes from the Latin granum, a grain, in reference to the coarse-grained structure of such a crystalline rock."

In my opinion, Granite is probably one of the most sought after materials in home construction, especially in kitchens. I had my home remodeled in 2006 and I was fortunate enough to get black granite countertops and they are beautiful and more importantly, for my family, they are tough and durable. I know black granite sounds funny, but with the cherry wood cabinets, it looks beautiful.  It's actually more of a dark green granite with specks of color in it.

If you want to see for yourself how durable this great stone called granite can be, and how useful it can be around your dinner table, be sure to check out my store listings to see a great sale on The "only seen on tv" Keep It Hot, Microwavable hot plate. This is a simple granite tile with plastic edges creating a very portable and usable foodwarmer.

If you have never worn a hair extension or hair piece, you might want to give it a try. Hair extensions and hair pieces are just another great way to update your hairstyle and make it an easy way to style your hair for any occasion, quickly.

When people hear the word hair extension, they automatically think of the salon applied hair extension that help you have the long hair of a goddess, but in reality, hair extensions can apply to those of us with short hair and it doesn't have to be a salon application. Hair pieces these days are easy to apply, easy to use, and you can create a multitude of different hairstyles with one hair piece.

The ones I like most are the ponytail hair clips that simply attach the ponytail you already have and simply make it fuller. One clip and you have full gorgeous wavy or curly hair and a lot more of it.

Hair extensions, hairpieces, and hair clip ons come in all kinds of hair colors so there are plenty out there to match just about any shade. If you don't get it matched exactly, don't worry, there seems to be a new trend today where people are wearing multi colored hair anyways so you will fit right in.

Check out a couple of clip in hairpieces for yourself (one is by Jessica Simpson herself) and see if you can't find a way to change your hairstyle today.

Be sure and visit my store now and check out the Jessica Simpson Hairdo clip in hair piece, and the Paul Young hairpieces to.  All are synthetic hair extensions that clip on to your existing hair and you don't have to visit a  salon to even get the Jessica Simpson hairstyle.

Thomas Kinkade "is an American Painter of realistic, bucolic, and idyllic subjects. He is most notable for the mass marketing of his work as printed reproductions and other license products." (wikepedia) Kinkade is known as "Thomas Kinkade, Painter of Light" and he has many different Bradford Exchange Collectibles for people to purchase.

The Bradford Exchange is probably one of the best places to get just about anything from a Kincade collector series because there are things like the Kinkade Calendar, Collector plates, figurines, and many other items that people exchange with one another. You can find lamps, jewelry, Christmas collections, and just about anything else you might be searching for. 

If you've never seen the work of Thomas Kincade, you really need to see the beautiful work that he does. His paintings come to life with color and the light that you see in his pictures is nothing short of utterly beautiful.

One of the key features of the Kinkade collection is the glowing highlights of his pictures. He paints settings such as gardens, streams, stone cottages, and lighthouses. He also depicts various Christian themes such as crosses and churches.

Personally, I find his work to be very soothing and calming. I don't have any Kinkade lithographs or paintings at this point, but I will some day.

At this point in my life, I own a few of the Thomas Kinkade collector series plates, tea light lantern, and illuminated Christmas tree. Another one of the Kinkade collections I own is the. This is a beautiful wooden perpetual calendar with 30-50 tiles for each day and 12 monthly collector Tile Plates, for each month of the year.  Thomas Kinkade, Seasons of Light, Stained-Glass Calendar seriesThe wooden calendar holder has many led lights in it and when it is powered up, it lights up the tile plate sitting in front of the lights.

Unfortunately, I didn't purchase all 12 of the Tile Plates and only have six, but if you would like to get an idea of what this looks like, be sure and view my current listings.

It might not be the same as "don't step on my Blue Suede shoes" but close enough. If you have ever owned or worn suede leather shoes, especially, suede leather pumps, then you know how often you might be thing, "don't step on my purple suede shoes".

 I just love women's shoes, especially when they are leather heels. Even better, is women's leather discount shoes that I can find online. Why do I like shoes online? Mostly because it means I don't have to leave my house to go shopping for heels.

 I know my shoe size and it hasn't changed much and I know the approximately size I need depending on the type of women's shoe I'm buying so I typically don't have much trouble buying shoes online.

I just recently listed a pair of womens purple suede leather pumps in my EBay store and it had me wondering why I even bought them in the first place. Honestly, I think I was trying to match an outfit I had purchased from ColdWater Creek but for some reason, I never wore those shoes. I happen to love the color purple, so I hung on to them for some time thinking I might just wear them, but my New Years Resolution for 2009 is to get organized.I'm not new to goal setting, but this year I am taking it seriously and I'm getting organized.

Now, if you like discount shoes like I do, then you have to check out these women's Purple Suede Leather Open Toe Pumps. I paid $69.00 for them but the auction starts at $9.99 and they are really BRAND NEW, NEVER WORN.

I have been living for about 2 weeks without my Bluetooth Headset for my Blackberry phone and it has been murder. I never realized just how spoiled I was at using my bluetooth earpiece until I didn't have one.

Lately, I've been having to either hold the handset, or put my call on speaker phone so I can still be on the phone handsfree. I realized I might be slightly ADHD because I can't just sit and listen, or talk, on the phone, I've got to be doing something else too.

Maybe you are one of those people that hasn't tried the Bluetooth yet and you are still using those ear buds. If that's you, you have to try one - you just wont' believe how easy they are to use and you may never be able to hold your phone again.

With the traffic laws changing nationwide now, that's a good thing. You don't want to be caught driving down the street holding your phone, especially in California where they are now enforcing an ordinance and citing people. Plus every watched someone try to make a turn into a shopping center or something while holding their phone - it's scary, especially if you are the car they might run in to.

If you are looking for an affordable, quality bluetooth earpiece headset for your cell phone, then click the link and check out aBrand New, Motorola H780 Bluetooth Ear Piece Head Set for only $61.35 You won't regret the purchase, I guarantee it.

You might be considering a purchase of a New Bluetooth Ear Piece Headset for your cellular phone and I'm here to tell you that might be the best purchase you've ever made.

More Law Enforcement Agencies than ever before are now getting on the bandwagon and beginning to enforce new ordinances and laws against drivers that are seen talking on their cell phones while driving. In-attention to driving has to be one of the most frequent tickets officer write to drivers these days because of things like talking on the cell phone, putting on makeup, eating and drinking a meal, and even reading while driving. All it takes is 1 second to look away from the road, and you might find yourself smack in the back of a semi truck. If you'd like to avoid getting a ticket, or worse, getting hurt in an accident caused by talking on your cell phone, get a bluetooth today.

With today's technology, finding a high quality, yet affordable, Bluetooth ear piece headset is easier than ever. I recently shopped around for a new Motorola H780 for my Blackberry 8800 cell phone. Believe it or not, I had a Motorola H700 that I accidentally dropped into a cup of hot tea (luckily, when I wasn't talking on it) so I was in desperate need of a new one.

I checked my carriers site, TMobile, and they wanted $99.00 for a new one plus shipping and handling, I then checked Motorola.com and they wanted $99.00 for one,but I have some great news for you....you don't have to pay $99.00 if you are searching for one of these things. You can purchase a Brand New, Motorola H780 Bluetooth Ear Piece Head Set for only $55.00.

Now this is no cheap bluetooth headset your buying, we are talking Motorola. Probably one of the best names out there for this type of technology. In my opinion, this the best bluetooth headset you can buy.
