4.0 out of 5 stars Grinding just got easier, Mar 12 2013
My husband is an avid pepper lover, as well is my daughter. In fact he uses black pepper almost every day on practically every meal. He personally prefers the taste of fresh ground pepper over store bought already grounded pepper, so the Ozeri pepper mill has been a lifesaver. The overall peppermill is made with a soft textured non-slip grip with finger-print resisting coating that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. The soft touch electric peppermill has a large push-down button on the top that instantly grinds and releases the seasonings evenly over your dishes or food. It also features a a see-through container that makes monitoring pepper level easier, allowing you also to see the grinding action up close.

Another nice feature to the Ozeri savore soft touch electric pepper mill and grinder is you can adjust the grinding preference to 3 preset grinding levels. Choose from fine grind, medium grind or coarse grind. The Electric Pepper Mill and Grinder does require 6 AAA batteries, but Ozeri includes the batteries with your purchase allowing you to enjoy your Peppermill right away. We were pleasantly surprised about how quiet it is. We have been using it for 3 months now and it still works great!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Rated Pedometer, July 16 2012
The Ozeri 4x3 Digital Sports Pedometer has accompanied me on many runs and gives me accurate readings comparable to other fitness tools that I have used and continue to use. It allows me to calculate the distance covered along with the time in which my workout was achieved, keeping me accountable to my fitness goals. It has also assured me that I have been miscalculating the distance of one of my favorite trails- giving me more confidence in the small yet efficient device.

When you are hitting the trails don't go alone, take Ozeri with you. It is an affordable way to track your progress and reinvent a new and improved you. I am satisfied with their product and their hundred percent satisfaction guarantee will ensure that you are too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Which Toiletry Bag to purchase, May 25 2012
This toiletry bag is designed to organize all of his toiletries in one place while traveling. The heavy duty bag has a large double zipper compartment for easy access. The bag also contains a separate compartment on the bottom of the bag for storing included accessories.

I love the way it opens at the bottom and comes with approved travel bottles, collapsible cup with pill holder, and toothbrush case. The 3 bottles are individually marked as Shampoo, Conditioner and Body Wash. With their items in one of these containers it's simple for him to locate everything immediately when needed. There is nothing more frustrating than having to search through your whole bag looking for your toothbrush! The inside compartment of the bag is rather large to fit cologne, a razor, shaving cream etc.

The bag is designed with a fully water resistant, easy to clean nylon fabric interior,so it is easy to wipe clean in case of a spill. Now that my children are young adults my husband and I do a lot of traveling. If we are just going somewhere over night we both like to take just the bare necessities so that they all fit nice and snug into our carry-on luggage. This bag is perfect

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must See Movie,, Mar 30 2011
This review is from: Must Love Dogs (Widescreen) (DVD)
If you are looking for a funny romantic comedy, I recommend 'Must love Dogs.' Diane Lane and John Cusack are at their best in this humorous romantic comedy that you'll want to watch again and again. I'm surprised at the negative reviews that this movie has on Amazon, as I absolutely loved the movie.It's a very sweet must see!!

5.0 out of 5 stars patch adams, Mar 30 2011
Robin Williams is his zany, crazy self in the 1998 movie Patch Adams. The movie is based on the life of Hunter "Patch" Adams and the book Gesundheit. Patch Adams played by Robert Williams is a medical student at Virginia Medical University where he takes an unconventional approach to medicine. Patch Adams shows us that humor is really the best medicine. Robin Williams and co stars Daniel London, and Monica Potter all give wonderful performances in Patch Adams. This is absolutely a must see Movie for both young and old! For those curious to know the poem that Patch recites to Corinne (Played by Monica Potter) throughout the movie is entitled "I Do Not Love You" and was written by Pablo Neruda a Chilean poet, and diplomat, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hunt To Kill, Mar 30 2011
This review is from: Hunt to Kill (DVD)
Steve plays Jim, a border patrol agent who moves from Texas to Montana to raise his teenage daughter who he does not have the best of relationships with. When Jim's (STEVE AUSTIN) teenage daughter is kidnapped by some ruthless killers, he's forced to lead the killers into the wilderness to retrieve their share of a missing heist score. I was disappointed their was not more action in the film, but overall worth a rent. I did find it better than The Stranger.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth Buying, Mar 30 2011
Steve Austin stars as John Brickner - a man released from prison and on a trail for redemption. Redemption comes with a price though and John find himself fighting in an underground fight club to get money needed for a heart transplant for the daughter of a man he killed. A great action film worth buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pan, Mar 30 2011
The Omelet Ease Pan makes the perfect serving for one. The Pan is securely clasped together with the cute egg head at the end of the handle. Push the egg head inward and the pans are locked together, so you can flip your eggs. Unlock the Omelet Ease by moving the egg head away from the pan. Holds 3 large eggs. Omelet comes out fluffy. Doesn't stick at all. I give it 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm pleased, Mar 30 2011
It is very simple to use and easy to fill. The mist comes out of the holes over the eyeballs. It has a variable mist adjustment knob to control the midst. I like that it automatically turns off when empty. It is not loud at all. We had a bit of white dust, but only because we have hard water. The instruction manual tells you "filtered or distilled water is recommended to avoid white dust if your tap water is too hard." Filters are available for the humidifier. Great afordable product!

5.0 out of 5 stars Heartfelt, Mar 30 2011
I absolutely love it. It has now became my 2nd favorite children's book. As I was reading it I thought of my own children. Marianne Richmond's beautiful prose expressed my own feelings. Having raised two children I can truly appreciate the story. Marianne's illustrations to the book was wonderful as well.

This is a lovely book with a powerful message that I would recommend any parent add to their child's book collection.

Would make a nice shower gift too.
