I live in Florida. It rains here a lot, especially during the summer months. I have several umbrellas, but I can’t help but what the sky umbrella. The auto-open auto-close feature is great for those of us who are trying to juggle kids and/or car keys, cell phones while making a mad dash to the car.

“Created by Tibor Kalman, this black umbrella opens to reveal a photograph of a brilliant blue sky underneath a wonderful waterproof arc.”

Planning to go camping? Hosting a tailgate party? If so, you simply must have a portable microwave oven handy! Just imagine how easy it will be to make a bag of popcorn, a pizza or heat up some coffee. I don’t know about you but when I go camping I need my caffeine to keep up with the kids and all their activities!

The microwave plugs into a wall outlet, a car or boat’s dC outlet or connects to a car battery.

“About the size of a toolbox, the microwave weighs only 16 lbs. and has an integrated handle for ease of portability. It produces up to 660 watts of power–as much as some kitchen microwaves–allowing you to cook a slice of pizza in two minutes or popcorn in six minutes. ”

I was on the looking for new outdoor gadgets to add to the patio and/or pool and happened across the Floating Light and Water Show. I fell in love. When I read it floats in the water and doesn’t require installation I was especially happy. I love my husband dearly but I’m still waiting for him to finish several projects!

“This floating fountain projects colorful spouts of water, turning your pool or pond into an effervescent water and light show. Nine LEDs create red-, green-, blue-, and yellow-hued spouts while simultaneously projecting a kaleidoscope of symmetrical, alternating colored images on the pool floor.”

If you are on the market for a new digital camera, the Insignia 7.0 Mega Pixel camera is the perfect affordable option. And it’s pretty in pink!

The camera was a gift for my teenage daughter who is fourteen. It was one of items on her Christmas list that had several stars*** next to it so I would fully understand just how important this gift was to her.

Shopping for a digital camera these days can be overwhelming with thousands of models and features to choose from. Most important on the list of features was affordability, ease of use (I am technology challenged and well, my daughter takes after her mother) and of course clear pictures.
