Very colorful, Mar 9 2012
This is a nice and colorful book that makes an interesting add to the coffee table book collection. I bought this originally from the deals section for about $1. I see now it's listed as alot higher; I'm not sure I would pay more than a few dollars for this, as it's good, but not amazing. Wait 'til it's on sale :)

Does the job!, Mar 9 2012
A nicely weighted plastic product that ended up being sturdier than I expected. It works wonderfully! It's definitely an essential tool for those who enjoy cake decorating.

Cute!, Mar 9 2012
These are really cute cutters, ideal for animal crackers/cookies. They are perfectly shaped and come in a little box that makes it easy to store, and made out of decent quality metal.

High Quality, No "Coasters", Mar 8 2012
With alot of DVD-R's, you really get what you pay for. I managed to snag these on sale, but they're definitely worth paying full price as they burn well and I'm yet to have any wasted out of the 25 DVD's I've burned so far :) Verbatim is definitely a superior brand.

Lovely find!, Feb 20 2012
I love how bright and colorful this book is! The pages are well illustrated, and there's also an envelope section with lovely pre-cut butterflies that are lovely to look at- perhaps more for children, as apparently you can make them fly- I'm yet to try this, lol :) I bought this book for myself, and it is an enjoyable reference book; my only real preference would've been to have more information available- it's not quite a detailed field guide, but it does have information that is suitable for beginners.

Rather disappointed, Feb 20 2012
This book really wasn't as I expected. There wasn't much to read, although the stickers are cute, and the pages are bright. The paper is also quite thin. Also note, the book is nearly pocket sized- I was expecting a larger book and I had misread the measurements, perhaps (I was thinking in inches, whereas I note now that the description is in cm) It might be okay for some, but it wasn't much use to 3 year old that it was bought for (destroyed instantly).

Cute book!, Feb 20 2012
This book comes in a rather unique shape- a long rectangle, printed on heavy paper. The corner is held together with a metal clip, so it makes it easy to flip through. There are alot of tasty quiche and pizza recipes, several quite unique, and many I look forward to try. The directions are easy to follow, and the pages are bright and colorful. And, on a sale price (bought this on clearance), you can't go wrong! :)

Useful, yet entertaining, Feb 9 2012
I bought this gift for my brother-in-law who found it both useful and fun. There are both realistic and rather unusual survival skills noted in this book. I looked through it myself and found it entertaining, too. The DVD at the back makes it more interactive for men who are also into computers. The search function is faster than using the index, for those who prefer to use the computer. This would be a good gift for a man who likes usefulness, but also has a sense of humor. I think if this were bought for a rather serious individual who expected a serious survival book, this wouldn't fit the bill.

Perfect for My Little Pony lovers, Feb 9 2012
This book is great for little girls who love My Little Ponies, or who love girly and princess-y type of things. It's very bright and colorful, and has some good lessons for kids on friendships. My nieces love this book, and enjoy pretend reading (they're 2 & 4) the stories. The hardcover makes this a book that will last through the years, although the pages are of paper, so be careful of very young little hands who like to rip things!

Likely to get results, but..., Feb 9 2012
Well, this is definitely a good workout. I do the P90X workout, but this one is also quite intense for a short time. I gave it 3 stars because of the content of the workout, but I could go between 2-3 stars due to the following: - It is quite easy to injure yourself in this if you are not knowledgeable. She doesn't give tips until near the end of the exercise. My friend ended up getting very sore knees and pulled something in his bicep while borrowing this. - I don't like how the dvd intro cannot be skipped. Once you see all the info the first time, as well as Jillian's intro, it's a pain to listen to her annoying voice. A mute button is necessary. - I wish there were more options in terms of the workouts; there are 3 workouts, but it would be nice not to have to listen to the annoying useless chatter in the workout, and have a mute with cues option instead. - I don't find her motivating, but more annoying than anything. Again, the video has a good workout, which is why I bought it to begin with. Jillian Michaels does know what she's doing, it would just be nicer to just do the workout than to listen to her chatter, lol. Anyway, you will like this DVD more if you can deal with her whiny voice and want a good workout in a short time. You will work up a decent sweat, even if you are in good physical shape. So, I'd say buy it if you want results... and have a mute button nearby!
