Friday Finds

—Extend the life of your hair color. If you’re like me and always wait to the last minute to get your hair colored or highlighted, then you’ll love this product: John Frieda Luminous Hair Glaze. It’s my new favorite! Just put it on your hair in the shower, leave it on for 3 minutes, rinse, and it adds a hint of color and a lot of shine. It costs about $9.99 and the bottle is big enough for multiple glaze treatments. You can find it at just about any grocery or drug store.

Tela’s Finds

—I can’t decide if this is cool, or just a big waste of plastic and metal. Decide for yourself: The Squirt Baby Spoon from Boon.

—Now MomSpit on the other hand, I like. I hate, hate, HATED when my mom spit on her finger to wash off my face, but I find myself doing it to O all the time. My only improvement: Maybe they should make one that clips to a keychain, b/c the reason we moms use spit is b/c it’s so convenient. Hands and saliva are always gonna be there. When we are out, I carry my keys almost always, while I might stow a purse away.

Susan’s Finds
—Cranium’s new line of games, books, puzzles, and toys just for preschoolers: Bloom. Maybe I’m a little more excited than most about this because my good friend Shanon was instrumental in creating Bloom. But it actually does sound pretty cool. Bloom uses the “everyday world as inspiration and Create, Discover, Perform, and Connect activities as a framework” to help little ones learn and play. I’m going to try to get some for WMAG to review soon.

—Who misses new TV? I do, I do! Though I fully support the writers’ strike, I can’t help but crave some new boob-tube action. Here are some upcoming fresh shows I’m looking forward to: Monk, Fridays at 9 p.m., USA (followed by Psych at 10 p.m.); Reno 911!, Wednesdays at 10:30 p.m., Comedy Central; Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Mondays at 9 p.m. on Fox; and the big one, Lost (starting Jan. 31!), Thursdays at 9 p.m., ABC.
