  • My Favorite Eye Cream

    Posted on Sunday November 1st, 2009 at 12:00 in reviews, Opinion, lynda lippin

    In my ongoing search for the best eye cream I have finally settled on a product that is rich enough to feel moisturizing yet light enough to wear every day in this harsh Caribbean climate. And no, it is not a special brand that is hard to find. I use...

  • Writing Reviews

    Posted on Thursday August 13th, 2009 at 11:07 in weight loss, reviews, Opinion

    You may notice that I take review writing relatively seriously. I actually read the books, use the software, try the exercises or diets or recipes, and try to write a review that a graduate school professor might give an A to, but is still accessibl...

  • Diet & Energy - from a pill?

    Posted on Friday August 7th, 2009 at 15:07 in weight loss, Opinion

    My husband has managed to lose 6 pounds in the last 2 weeks with just a little more activity and a little less food. Nothing drastic, nothing crazy, just a bit of portion control and some nice fast paced walks with me and Smiley. So when I see ads ...

  • Best Diet Pill

    Posted on Wednesday June 10th, 2009 at 10:25 in weight loss, fitness, health, Opinion

    So many people write to ask me what the best diet pill on the market is. You know what I tell them? Watch how much you eat and do some exercise. Because at the end of the day there is no diet pill that will magically help you lose weight without a...

  • Cheap Diet Pills

    Posted on Wednesday April 29th, 2009 at 13:05 in weight loss, Opinion

    I think most of my readers know how I really feel about diet pills, weight loss supplements, and however else they are described. Even the best diet pills are full of dangerous and questionable ingredients that have nasty side effects. Plus, all of...

    Image via WikipediaJust read a British publication's take on the greatest scandal to hit my adopted home of Turks and Caicos as we await the final report of the British Commissioner which will most likely lead to the resumption of direct British rule...

    Image via WikipediaThe biggest news over the past months in Turks and Caicos has been the British Government's investigation into government corruption in this territory. While we have a British Governor, this territory has up until now been governe...

    Posted on Sunday January 25th, 2009 at 13:47 in news, Opinion, turks and caicos islands

    Image via WikipediaWith all the development going on in the Turks and Caicos Islands you would think this country would be flowing with cash, especially the government which takes in taxes on the real estate transfers, planning fees, work permits, cu...

  • Oprah's Human!

    Posted on Thursday December 11th, 2008 at 09:08 in news, health, Opinion, oprah winfrey, flat belly diet

    I must admit that I am quite mortified over the web response to Oprah's magazine cover story where she discusses her recent weight gain bringing Oprah back to the 200 pound mark. As many of you know, I gained 50 pounds after my hysterectomy 12 year...

  • Sisters Fly from Turks and Caicos to US to Vote for Obama

    Posted on Thursday November 6th, 2008 at 01:00 in news, Opinion, caribbean, turks and caicos

    Yesterday's US election was historic in many ways. As you may have guessed from my Vote for Obama post, I am not a huge supporter of the Republican party and its policies. In fact, we moved out of the US just after the last election when W was re-e...

  • Vote for Obama

    Posted on Tuesday November 4th, 2008 at 09:51 in news, Opinion, lynda lippin

    Ok, I haven't said anything about today's US election until today, but here's where I stand. George W. Bush and his party have managed to keep us in an unjust war against a faceless nameless enemy that keeps all Americans in a heightened state of st...
