A new adventure awaits!

Back in 2008, The Old Schoolhouse Magazine was researching bloggers to participate to their TOS Homeschool Crew. The Crew would have a job to reviews homeschool products during a period of 9 months. I was very fortunate to have being part of the crew since last Fall and since the voyage is coming to an end I am looking forward at expanding my review experiences with other publishers or products.



While being part of the Crew, I re-discover my love of writing. Back when I was in high school I was part of the high school paper and enjoyed my time informing my fellow students of the various activities that were going on.



I look forward to have more opportunities to review books or products.



In the meantime, I will post the reviews I made in the past 9 months with the Crew. As other reviews come, I will post them here as well.



I hope that my reviews will be enjoyed by whoever stop by this blog.



Blessings.

If I was a Super-Hero....

.... what would I be?


Okay.   We love comics... French/English... doesn't matter.   We have some - oh a few....  Actually more like 35 boxes of them.   And if you know what a long box of comics look like, you would know that there is lots in it...   so make the calculation.   When I met my future husband he had 6 or 7 of these boxes.   We got more during the last 12 years...  I went to a store once with him and we brought back tons of Superman's ones because they were on sale.   That's how nuts we are...


Want another story?   Honeymoon.   Florida.   We discover a warehouse of comics...   We bought some well lots but not as much as the time we were in Colorado and went to Mile High in Denver and another store in Colorado Springs.   That time we brought back 408 comics.   All packed with our suitcases...  Nuts I'm telling ya.


Do we read them?  YES!   I would say I read more than hubby so far.    Do we pay full price?  NOT!  Unless we have too.   Does Hubby would love to get his hands on the Obama appearance in Spider-man?  YOU BET!


Now - enough of this.   A friend of mine had this little thing on her facebook and I thought it was so cute.   You create you super-hero and get the image of a comic.   So, I decided to try it out too!   Here's what I got!



 


Do you want one too?   It's easy as saying 1-2-3.   Go to The Hero Factory and have fun!
