They are encouraged to pull themselves up and stay standing at the table while they play. I already have the Baby Einstein Discovering Music Activity Table by Disney for my infant and can’t wait to watch her interactions with it as she grows. The Baby Einstein Activity Table even has pull off legs so that babies can play on the floor. The table helps babies learn colors, shapes, and counting to five in three languages and plays five classical melodies. The light up colors and sounds attract babies’ attention and are just fun.

You can buy the Baby Einstein Discovering Music Activity Table at Target for $39.99.

The sounds and mouth motions are activated by gently touching a button in his year.

The pony is available in either pink or brown and features a soft and plush body, non-slip foot steps and easy to grip handles.

Kallie Kindle Clutch

I have so many accessories these days. It goes far beyond my bag and shoes. With all the technology I tote

Kayley Kindle Clutch

around on a regular basis it is nice to know that there are fashionable options out there to house them. So you never have to be style free.

Let me start with my two latest acquisitions. My Kindle and my iPad. My Kindle was a Christmas present and I tend to carry it around a lot. As soon as I got I downloaded books and looked immediately for a cute case. I am LOVING the cases by Diane Von Furstenberg.

I am a big fan of her clothing and have quite a few pieces. I love the gorgeous prints her for which many of her designs are known. The Kindle clutch is no exception. There are leather and canvas versions. My favorites are the Kallie Leather Clutch and the

Burberry iPad Case

Kayley Canvas Clutch at $69 and $88 respectively.

There are more and more iPad cases on the market everyday. Juicy Couture, Ralph Lauren, Gucci, Dolce and Gabbana and Burberry have all come out with options, but they come at a higher price. I do love the Burberry offering but at $325, the SPI Inc Animal iPad case may be a better option. Still very cute it is right now on sale at Neiman Marcus for $87.90.

With the current cold cold weather, I am getting myself a pair of these Echo Touch Gloves. Not only are they warm and cute, the index and thumb have an “e-link fabric” on them thatĀ  allows you to still be able to use the touchscreen on

Novero Bluetooth Earpiece

your iPhone, iPad, and other touch sensitive devices. They retail for $30.

With more and more states adding the hands free

Plantronics Bluetooth Earpiece

law for mobile phones, some very cute earpiece options have been introduced to the market. The Novero Fashion Headsets showcase  bluetooth devices that look like pretty necklaces.

 They start at $259. The Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth earpiece featuring a filtered glass bead is a cute and more affordable option at $85.99.

There are 16 collector puppies available with accessory packs and fun play sets, like the Ultimate Fancy Paws Day Spa. I think there will be more Mix Pups in our future. Thinking ahead to the holidays they would make perfect stocking stuffers. Mix Pups was just nominated for a Peoples Play Award by Time To Play Magazine and they have also come out in plush stuffed animal form.

Mix Pups were provided by Jazwares for this review.

These Michael Kors “Parker” Faux Fur Clog Booties are adorable. Clog bottoms,  gold studded footbed and a faux fur cuff.

Nordstrom also carries a variety of beautiful cocktail rings, like this Kate Spade “Marquee” Paillette Ring for $55.

Lace can be brought in in so many ways adding a feminine and delicate touch. I think this Hazel lace Fitted Cardigan from Piperlime for $84 is adorable and would look great paired with a great pair of jeans, distressed or skinny or cargo pants.

I had to throw in capes. I love this look to throw on top on chilly days. Anthropologie has some very cute ones. The Everything In Place Cape retails for $198.

Last night I had the fabulous opportunity to meet Chef Marcela Valledolid, taste her wonderful cuisine and learn from her how to make several delicious margaritas all featuring Sauza Tequila. I attended a Ladies Night In event sponsored by Sauza Tequila. The recipes were really great for simple yet impressive entertaining year round. One of my favorite things I walked away with was that margaritas are not just for the summer anymore. I love making fresh margaritas in the summer when I entertain, but Chef Marcela showed us this amazing recipe for a Warm Winter Margarita. Yum!

It was so delicious and just made you feel all warm and toasty inside. I will definitely be making that a lot this winter. It was made with apple juice, dried fruit, sugar, cinnamon sticks and Sauza Silver Tequila. It is a must try when the weather gets cooler. We also tasted some terrific margaritas for the warmer weather. I really enjoyed the Citrus Cooler, made with White Wine, Limeade, Lemon-Lime Soda and Sauza Silver Tequila (recipe to follow). The delicious fresh Mexican food we sampled also showcased the fabulous flavor of Sauza Tequila. We enjoyed Tequila Lime Chicken Tacos, Tequila Lime Shrimp, Apricot Tequila Drumsticks. Just some really great and simple entertaining food. The simple recipes allow you to serve fabulous fresh and tasty food and drinks and have more time to spend with your guests.

Sauza Tequila and Chef Marcela have teamed up to equip women easy and delicious recipes for entertaining. Sauza Tequila is very affordably priced at around $15 a bottle. It is available in 3 varieties:  Gold, Silver, and Commemorativo. The taste is fresh and crisp agave. It is made from agave cooked and pressed wit in 48 hours of being harvested. You can find more of Chef Marcela’s yummy recipes in her cookbook titled Fresh Mexico: 100 Simple Recipes for True Mexican Flavor.¯ She also hosts her own Food Network show, Mexican Made Easy where she showcases authentic and accessible recipes. Just like me she has a young son (5) mine is 6 who serves as her sous chef.

This morning my son flipped through her cookbook to pick out all the recipes we have to make. He also told me that Chef Marcela “is soo beautiful!”¯ We can’t wait to try out the dishes from the cookbook.
