Michael Bublé Crazy Love Review

I want to thank One2One Network who sent me Michael Bublé's new album "Crazy Love" to review. I am a new listener and a new fan. He has a great voice! And he has such a cute smile. :)

I would describe the album as a smooth jazz sound on most of the songs. Usually I am not much into jazz, but his voice makes it really good. My favorite song is "Haven't Met You Yet". It makes me smile and want to dance every time I hear it or watch the video.

Songs on "Crazy Love"
1. Cry Me A River
2. All Of Me
3. Georgia On My Mind
4. Crazy Love
5. Haven't Met You Yet
6. All I Do Is Dream Of You
7. Hold On
8. Heartache Tonight
9. You're Nobody Till Somebody Loves You
10. Baby (You've Got What It Takes)
11. At This Moment
12. Stardust
13. Whatever It Takes

Check out this cute video:

A Day Made Better

OfficeMax and and Mom It Forward have teamed up to create awareness about the issue of teacher-funded classrooms and to give you the opportunity to get involved and help a teacher in your community on behalf of the “A Day Made Better".

I would like to nominate Charles (Billy) Thompson at Evansville Christian School to win $100 in OfficeMax classroom supplies. According to my children he does many things to make his class interesting thus getting the kids interested in history. My daughter loves history now because he made it fun to learn and relevant.

He does everything in his power to deliver the best possible education for his students. He makes classes interactive. For example, when my daughter was studying the civil war, they reenacted a war scene using paper balls.

He is very innovative to find ways to make the history info relevant to the kids today. He uses humor to make learning history fun. You can tell he has a genuine passion for education and shares this enthusiasm in the classroom. Since he works at a Christian school, it is not supported by the government, and funds are tight. He could definitely use the OfficeMax Gift card for essential school supplies.

You can learn more about the campaign at http://adaymadebetter.com/ or @adaymadebetter.

Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters Review

New Nature Valley Granola Nut Clusters are bite size clusters of nuts, granola and a touch of honey – a 100% natural, wholesome and delicious treat for any time of the day. If you are a lover of nuts, you’ll love what Nature Valley has done with this powerful little snack. It is the perfect combination of sweet & salty flavor and crunchy texture made from natural nut goodness that you can see and taste. And with a resealable bag it’s perfect for sharing either on the trails or in your living room.

Thanks to My Blog Spark I was sent all 4 combinations to try : Nut Lovers, Roasted Almond, Roasted Cashew and Honey Roasted Peanut. I loved all of them! They really are delicious. I like the combo of crunchy with sweet and salty. I would definately recommend them.
