review

¡Hola! It's Jeanette, a contributing writer for Latina On a Mission. New York City Screening Attendees  My daughter and I recently had an opportunity to see a private/advance screening of “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1”, and I can't stop thinking about it. The film opened last week. As expected, it broke records.  So I’d like [...]

This past September I had the opportunity to see Lionsgate’s Warrior, starring Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton, with the kids and Noah a friend of the family. Below is her review. ******************** Initially when I heard about Warrior I wasn't very interested in seeing the movie. I thought it would be a typical sports movie touching on a few [...]

Recently I wrote about my teeth whitening ordeal at the Dentist's office. Trust me, it wasn't pretty. In fact, it was downright painful. Using the Crest 3D Whitestrips, on the other hand, was easy peasy and painless. In the before (top picture) and after photos, shown below, I tested out one 2 hour treatment. The package [...]

Recently I was given the opportunity to review the Sprint LG Optimus S.   When the box arrived, Karl, my teen,  brought it upstairs. Wait, let me rephrase that. He practically tripped over himself running up the stairs in his haste to have me open the box. (I have a rule in my place. As the [...]

Being an apartment dweller, I have limited kitchen space. As a result, when I was offered a chance to review the George Foreman Smart Kitchen Multicooker, I was psyched!   When I received the box, I was excited to take it out. I have to admit I expected it to be much bigger, especially after I was that told that [...]

A few years ago I hired a trainer. He was not only a great trainer, he was also guapisimo/gorgeous! I trained harder because he trained me. I ran, lifted, squatted, and jumped on command. Yet the one thing I dreaded doing was sit-ups and not for the reason you may think. Exercising, when done with vigor, [...]
