Thanks for the laughs Sherman – A Tribute

“Well, I’m moving on up! To the East side!” Some of my first memories of family night with my mom came from watching Sherman Helmsley as George Jefferson in The Jeffersons. I don’t know what made us laugh harder – his trademark dancing, yelling at Weezy or his verbal sparring with Florence.

I was instantly brought back to those nights with my mom when I heard the sad news of Helmsley’s passing. As George, Sherman was hilarious, arrogant and self-centered. But he was also the character you loved to hate and still loved anyway.

I remember Helmsley’s amazing work in the racism episode where George gave cpr to a man who was a racist (ie super negative) towards him. George saved the man’s life. And Sherman Helmsley was endeared to me forever.

After the Jeffersons, I saw Helmsley in Amen (loved him there, too) and in various other spots. But, my love for Helmsley started on The Jeffersons. Thanks Sherman for all of the laughs.
RIP Sherman Helmsley (1938 – 2012)

And the man and his dance. Enjoy!

Riding the Banana Boat Wave (Sponsored Post)

Summertime is here and the Banana Boat has sailed in with new products. When I received the invite for the event from fellow blogger, SelfishMom aka Amy, I was instantly reminded of the Banana Boat sunscreen that I’ve used for my son.

Last Saturday, I had the chance to check out Banana Boat’s new product – Natural Reflect – an new organic product designed to provide great protection without all of the harmful ingredients.With games and activities for the kids, Banana Boat gave us parents the chance to check out how well Natural Reflect worked. I didn’t get that chance as my pre-teen took up a spot on Amy’s couch.

Natural Reflect was set up outside in Amy’s backyard. One thing I noticed right away was the SPF of 50. My son is much lighter in complexion than I am, so I always look to a higher SPF to keep him protected and out in the sun longer. I also noted that there were two types of Natural Reflect Sunscreen – one just for kids and one for adults. The more I learned about it, the more I tweeted about it.

For years, Banana Boat has taken up residence in my home. Every summer, I get new sunscreen for kiddo to use to enjoy the sun without the harmful effects. It’s great to know that Banana Boat continues to share great, new products. All in all, I had a great time learning about Natural Reflect from Banana Boat and hanging out with my fellow bloggers. Thanks Banana Boat and thanks Amy!

Glam Me: Bronx Edition Success!

Hiya readers! I just had to come back to share my thoughts on Glam Me: Bronx Edition presented by Mommy’s Links and Zumba Mamas.

Glam Me was AH-FREAKIN-mazing! And I’m not saying it just because I attended. As Mommy’s Links Mombassador, I had a great view of all the glammed up action.

With over 25 vendors and sponsors represented, it was no wonder that so many women came out to get their glam on! One of our divas made a stop at the make-up table and look at her after:

This diva’s cookin’ with her good-lookin’ self!

She and so many ladies came out to glam up, do Zumba and have fun. And being a part of Glam Me is so much fun that it doesn’t feel like work for me. The best part? We’re doing it all over again on July 7, 2012 at the Long Island Children’s Museum! Check Mommy’s Links for details & tickets. See you there!
