Thanks for the Memories by Cecelia Ahern
Donating blood was the last thing on Justin Hitchcock's to-do list but he was persuaded into doing it by a female doctor during a blood drive week on the campus where he was a guest lecturing.
A month later, Joyce Conway suffers a miscarriage and receives a blood transfusion in hospital. After she leaves hospital, she somehow knows things now that she didn't know before. She can suddenly rattle off facts about architecture which previously were unknown to her. She sees images of people in her mind and she doesn't know who they are, but yet, some part of her, knows them, loves them...
Is this mysterious connection only something that Joyce experiences or does Justin have similar experiences too? What is this mysterious connection that they share?

MooGoo Cow Lick Lip Balm
The chemical free ingredients
This colourless edible lip balm by MooGoo smells like mandarin oranges and doesn't contain anything nasty. I've been using this product for a few months now and there's still a lot more left!
I absolutely love this lip balm. It's the one lip balm that I have in my handbag all the time and I particularly love the mug shot of the moo cow on this product!
Would I recommend this product? Definitely!

MooGoo Milk Shampoo and Conditioner
What I like about MooGoo Milk Shampoo
- It's nasties free --- no SLS, no parabens, no .....................
- It works at reducing itching scalp caused by dandruff which makes it a mild anti-dandruff shampoo though it does take a few washes before you feel its effects.
- It smells nice :)
- Although it may initially seem to cost a bomb when compared to the nasty shampoos that they sell in the pharmacies and supermarkets, it's actually good value for money when compared to other safe shampoo brands as you get a 500ml bottle for the around same price (if not less) as the other safe shampoo brands that give you only 200/ 250 ml only.
- It can get to be runny in consistency sometimes (depending on the batch that you get)
- It leaves my hair looking greasy and flat looking :(
- The bottle comes with a pump dispenser (don't know why the Milk Shampoo doesn't come with a pump dispenser)
- It smells nice :)
- It enhances the natural curls in my hair.
- It doesn't take the tangles out of my long wavy hair. I get knots in my hair after using this product and recently, my hair was so tangled that I had to resort to using my old nasty conditioner just to detangle my hair!
Would I purchase the products again?
I would probably repurchase the shampoo again for it's anti-dandruff effectiveness until I find another safe shampoo that would work on my hair without leaving it greasy and flat looking. I don't think I'll be repurchasing the conditioner again though. The search for an affordable natural ingredients shampoo and conditioner that would work for my hair and scalp continues....sigh...

If Today Be Sweet by Thrity Umrigar
Tehmina's husband has just passed away and she is now in the US visiting her son and his family. She has now to decide whether to return to India where everything is familiar or to start anew in the US.
Living Nature Foundation
The pump dispenser that dispenses waayyy too much product
My solution to the problem : The cosmetics syringe
that I use to save the amount of product dispensed
In my quest to make a move towards using safer and natural cosmetic products, I made this switch to Living Nature's Foundation.
I've been using it for almost two months now and I love it. It goes on smoothly and is light weight and really doesn't feel like I'm wearing make-up at all. I use the color Sand and it looks really natural on me.
It smells like milk chocolate when you're applying it but the smell doesn't last long.
The foundation is packaged in a 30ml glass bottle and comes with a plastic pump dispenser.
A small drawback of the pump is that it's hard to control the amount that it pumps out and it tends to pump out way too much product. I've overcome that problem by purchasing a cosmetics syringe that allows me to use only as much product as I need.
Would I recommend you purchase this product? Definitely!
Living Nature products can be purchased in all Justlife Stores.

MooGoo Full Cream
The Full Cream tub comes packaged in a box
The all good ingredients
The MooGoo Full Cream is the thicker version of the MooGoo Udder Skin Milk. I've been using this product since December (I bought it on Christmas Eve). I purchased the 250ml tub (it also comes in a 75g airless travel pump dispenser).
I simply llooovvveee this cream. I've been using it every day after taking a shower and it just sinks into my skin. It needs to be worked in a little bit but when done, it feels good with no greasy feeling. It has a very slight scent which goes away quickly. I've been using this product for about 2 months now and I'm only half way through the tub. A tub lasts a long time and is good value for the money spent :)
Oh, did I mention that it uses only natural ingredients and doesn't contain anything nasty? Check out the ingredients list for yourself.
Would I repurchase this product again? Definitely!
