Beam N Read Hands Free Travel and Reading Light
Are you looking for a wide and bright light that lights up two book pages and doesn’t disturb others? Are you looking for a great gift?
This is a true reading light that works with all printed books, Kindles and other eReaders (whether naked, skinned, or covered), PLUS newspapers, magazines, newsletters, loose documents, and other items that can’t support a clip-on light. Worn around the neck, there’s no need to shift it when reading paperbacks.
Included are two 2 special Relaxation Filters: BNR Orange for a softer, warmer light that blocks energizing blue light (especially useful when reading to relax in bed); BNR Red to block blue light and reduce ambient light for sensitive bed partners.
Standard alkaline AA batteries (not included) last an extra long 100 hours, far longer than flashlights and clip-on lights resulting in a lower cost to use (and fewer batteries in the trash). This light is still bright when others have gone dim. Save batteries for when you’re on the go with the optional USB/AC Power Kit with 12 ft of cable that lets you plug into the included USB/AC adapter. Or plug into a USB car adapter/charger, or a computer USB port, or a USB adapter/charger for cell phones, etc.
In addition to reading, this 3 LED hands-free light is great for crafts, travel, and walking in dim or dark places such as an attic, basement, or around the house during a power outage. Use it for writing journals, working, camping, changing diapers at night, and more.
Features
- For hands free personal light anywhere; extra bright light is easy on the eyes; doesn’t disturb others
- Wide light from 3 LEDs in a row lights up 2 book pages; works with ALL Kindles, eReaders
- BNR Orange Relaxation Filter softens and warms the cool LED light and blocks energizing blue light
- BNR Red Relaxation Filter blocks blue light, reduces ambient light, & helps maintains night vision
- Alkaline AA batteries (not incl) last Extra Long 100 hours, 3-10x longer than most clip-on lights
Also Available

This will help you save batteries for when you’re on the go or the next power outage.
It works with all Beam n Read LED Hands-Free lights (3 and 6 LED lights).
In addition to the adapter’s 6 foot BnR to USB cable, this kit includes an additional 6 foot USB extension cord letting you work up to 12 feet from a USB-A socket. Need a longer cable? – just add a standard USB extension cable. Use the included USB/AC adapter or a USB DC car adapter/charger, or a computer’s USB port, or the USB adapter/charger for your cell phone, e-reader, etc. You may leave batteries in the Beam n Read or take them out to make a super lightweight light.

Martian Goods and Other Stories by Noelle Campbell
It’s a barren world. Air is priceless, women bought and sold. Meanwhile, one man longs for love, but is it really worth the price?
In this short story collection by science fiction author Noelle Campbell, Mars is the new frontier where men stake their claims for a new life. However, some commodities are harder to come by than others–including women, who are often willing to sacrifice everything to escape an Earth that is no longer free.”

Enjoy the Season with Febreze Holiday Scents and Win a gift card #FebrezeHoliday
I love the Holiday Season: the meals, the get-togethers and the camaraderie. One of my favorite parts of the holidays are the scents! I love the smell of pine trees, of eggnog, of a nice warm vanilla latte with a huge slice of homemade apple pie.
This season I received a Scentspiration Home for the Holidays box from Febreze which was a delight! Inside this adorable house was a Febreze NOTICEables warmer and NOTICEables Notables in some of my favorite scents: Frosted Pine, Vanilla Latte and Apple Tart. The Holiday collection also includes Toasted Almond and Sugared Cranberry.
These warmers do a great job of making each room they are in feel warm and cozy and are very simple to use. The Vanilla Latte reminded me of sugar cookies, the apple tart like a delicious pie cooking in the oven, and the Frosted Pine like a forest in Winter.
My favorite is the Frosted Pine! I love going to pick out just the right Christmas tree each year and how it scents our house. I actually love that smell so much I have to be persuaded each year for it to be dragged out after the holiday. It reminds me of deep rich forests and the beauty of nature.
I like that Febreze doesn’t just cover up but really does eliminate odors. This Home for the Holidays Collection can help get your home fresh and ready for the season as well.
In this kit, Febreze also included a box filled with activity, recipe and craft ideas to get your creative juices going!
I decided to try the Coffee Scrub inspired by the Vanilla Latte scent.
What you need: 1/2 cup ground coffee, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup melted coconut oil, 1/2 tbs nutmeg, 1/2 tbs cinnamon and 3-4 drops of vanilla extract.
1. Combine all of the dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Use a fork to mix in the oil and vanilla.
3. Spoon into a small mason jar or other airtight container.
I really love this scrub. First of all, it has the deep rich scent of fresh spiced coffee and I loved the way it very gently exfoliated my skin.
What scents remind you of the Holidays?
Giveaway: In the spirit of the season and to get you started with some Febreze scents, you can enter here to win a $15 Walmart gift card.
Best of luck and Happy Holidays!

Celebrate Prince Spaghetti Day with Pasta for Breakfast!
I participated in this Blog Blast on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Prince Pasta. I received a promotional item to thank me for participating.
I grew up North of Boston, and, one thing was for sure, Wednesday was Prince Spaghetti Day! My mom had her own special secret tomato sauce which simmered all day in a huge pot, and she’d make extra to give to friends who always asked for more. I grew up with Prince Spaghetti and we keep up the Wednesday tradition as my family still loves the authentic Italian flavor.
Prince Pasta was born in 1912 on Prince Street in Boston’s North End. I’ve always loved exploring this neighborhood filled with scintillating smells and an Old World charm. You’ll find bustling streets, farmer’s markets, festivals and feasts. The smell of fresh bread baking tickles your nose as you make your way down the winding streets, and the cannoli is out of this world.
In celebration of National Pasta Month this October, Boston-born Prince Pasta, has partnered with Christine and Carla Pallotta, chefs and owners of local Italian eatery, NEBO, to develop creative and easy-to-make recipes using Prince Pasta. (I highly recommend NEBO for Prosciutto di Parma, Pappardelle and a delicious Fettuccine al Nero that melts in your mouth. Delicioso!)
Each Wednesday throughout October, Prince Pasta will reveal one of the Pallotta sisters recipes, showing how to make a simple and delicious meal with Prince Pasta. The recipes include Christine’s Breakfast Pasta, Cavatappi Funghi, Pasta al Forno and Pasta Piselli. These dishes look mouthwatering and I never knew the recipes could be so easy to follow.
Christine’s Breakfast Pasta
This recipe with its delicious Mediterranean flavors is one of Chef Christine Pallota’s favorites. Since I’m a big believer in pasta at any time of day, I’ll be making this dish this weekend!

The Match Maker by Karey White (The Husband Maker #2)
(This Summary contains spoilers if you have not yet read book #1 The Husband Maker)
It has been six months since Charlotte and Kyle broke up, and the Husband Maker strikes again. Kyle is officially engaged, while Charlotte is still nursing a broken heart.
While trying to get Charlotte out of her rut, she and her best friend decide it’s time for some good old-fashioned matchmaking. As Aleena arranges for Charlotte to meet up with a handsome Scottish tourist, Charlotte gets her two best friends together. However, when sparks start to fly between Aleena and Angus, Charlotte is left feeling more alone that ever–at least until the charming Scotsman becomes more than just a safe, rebound guy and teaches her that maybe, slowly, she can dare to open her heart again.
The Match Maker releases on November 1st

The Husband Maker by Karey White
Charlotte is a girl with nicknames. She may not love being called Charles or Chuck, but the hardest nickname to take is the one she was given in college, the one that has followed her now for too many years. They call her “the husband maker” and sadly, it fits. Every guy she’s dated since high school has gone on to marry the next girl they date. Not two or three girls down the road. The very next one.
Is she doing something wrong or is she just cursed?
When Kyle Aldsworth enters the picture and sweeps her off her feet, Charlotte begins to hope that maybe she’s not destined to be single forever. A senator’s son with political aspirations of his own, Kyle’s wealthy, handsome, and in need of a wife. Will Charlotte be disappointed yet again, or will she finally be able to make a husband for herself?

Texting while Driving – Don’t
We have all been informed about the dangers of drunk driving; however, studies have shown that distracted driving can be just as dangerous. While most of us would never get behind the wheel after drinking, all too many teens and adults still text while operating a vehicle.
Sadly, motor vehicle accidents are responsible for over 30,000 deaths every single year.The National Highway Safety Administration released a study that revealed that in 2012, an estimated 421,000 people were injured in car crashes involving a distracted driver. Perhaps we need more focus put on distracted driving as well.
Current laws proclaim texting while driving illegal in most states, but not all; and the penalties vary widely from state to state. You can read about the differing regulations here.
Sometimes it seems tempting to pick up one’s phone and read a message or even send one back; however, it seriously is not worth the consequences. If need be, pull over to a safe place if you must text or read messages. All it takes is that one moment of looking away and, in an instant, someone’s life could be changed forever.
Don’t text and drive. Just don’t do it.
