FRANKENWEENIE arrives in theatres everywhere on October 5th!

From creative genius Tim Burton (“Alice in Wonderland,” The Nightmare Before Christmas”) comes “Frankenweenie,” a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life—with just a few minor adjustments. He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor’s fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new “leash on life” can be monstrous.

A stop-motion animated film, “Frankenweenie” was filmed in black and white and rendered in 3D, which elevates the classic style to a whole new experience.

Magic Tap Product Review and Giveaway- Ends July 7th!

As my children have gotten older they want to be more independent but sometimes that independence comes with a mess.  My daughters want to pour their own drinks but sometimes the bottles are just too full and  heavy.  They get so frustrated when they accidentally spill their water, juice, or milk all over the place.   My 6 year old was watching an infomercial on tv a few weeks ago for The Magic Tap and she told me to get it so she could get her own drinks.  You would have thought that she received tickets to Disney World when we received The Magic Tap.  She was so excited to try it out.

The Magic Tap is battery operated and easy to install on every bottle we tried.  Simply insert the straw into any container, pull the silicone wings over the opening and into place, and press the trigger to dispense your beverage.
The Magic Tap works on most beverages except ones that are thick, have pulp, or are carbonated.

We recently moved into a new house and one of the things that I really wished the refrigerator had was a water dispenser.   Now we don’t need one.  Our children can easily get their own ice cold water right from our refrigerator with our new Magic Tap.  We love it.  The Magic Tap is also great to use instead of individual juice boxes, etc.  The only suggestion I would make is to turn the dispenser to the side when it is in the refrigerator so no one will accidentally press the trigger when reaching for something else.  Now I just need to get a few more Magic Taps so we can put one on our milk, too, so my kids can easily pour milk in their cereal and my husband and I can easily put milk in our coffee.

I can’t wait for Monsters University to come out!!!
 Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn’t always the case. From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn’t stand each other. “Monsters University” unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.

Screaming with laughter and fun, “Monsters University” is directed by Dan Scanlon (“Cars,” “Mater and the Ghostlight,” “Tracy”) and produced by Kori Rae (“Up,” “The Incredibles,” “Monsters, Inc.”). The film opens in U.S. theaters on June 21, 2013, and will be shown in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.

Notes:

  • ·        “Monsters, Inc.,” originally released on November 2, 2001, was nominated for four Oscars®: Best Animated Feature Film, Best Original Score, Best Sound Editing and Best Original Song—“If I Didn’t Have You,” for which it won.
  • ·        “Monsters University” will hit U.S. theaters nearly 12 years after the “Monsters, Inc.” theatrical debut.
  • ·        Billy Crystal and John Goodman reprise their roles in the prequel as the wise-cracking Mike Wazowski and lovable Sulley.
  • ·        “Monsters University” features a host of new faces and a few returning favorites from “Monsters, Inc.”
    You can also watch all four versions of the new trailer and vote for your favorite Mike sleep talking line on the official Monsters University Facebook Page – http://www.facebook.com/PixarMonstersUniversity.
    The winning line will be drawn up by a Pixar artist and shared EXCLUSIVELY with the fans of Monsters University.

No Drilling Required (Nie Wieder Bohren) Bathroom Accessories- Product Reviews- Robe Hook, Towel Bar, and Shower Bar

Thank you for visiting Cori's Cozy Corner! Please make sure to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and subscribe to our E-mails!

Want to install bathroom accessories but don’t want to drill into your tile or other wall surface?
Innovative Products Inc.
has a solution for you!  They have a whole line of No Drilling Required accessories that can easily be installed on almost any wall without drilling!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE these products.  They are simple to use, look great, and make any bathroom more functional.


No Drilling Required sent me several products to try out.  First I installed a robe hook just outside my shower.  It was perfect because I had wanted a robe hook but was afraid to drill into the bathroom tile.  I was amazed just how fast and  easy the installation was.  The hook is firmly in place using the wall adapters and enclosed adhesive and it only took a few minutes.

Here is my Robe Hook review:


I also installed a new towel bar in my daughters’ bathroom which was perfect.  They already had a towel bar in their shower but it was WAY too high for them.  I was able to install the No Drilling Required towel bar easily and securely.   Even with my daughters pulling their towels off of the bar (not so gently), the bar is in place and not going anywhere.

Here is my Towel Bar review:

I also received a shower bar to install in my daughters’ bathroom.  The old shower head that was in their bathroom was very high up and it was hard for them to get shampoo out of their hair with it.  The NoDrillingRequired shower bar is a wonderful addition to their shower.  They can easily move the shower head up and down to easily get close enough to the shower head to properly rinse all the shampoo and conditioner out of their hair.  And I love that they can be independent and work the shower bar themselves.

Here is my review on the shower bar:

Brinno LCD Screen PeepHole Viewer With Image Recording and Knock Sensor Product Review

Thank you for visiting Cori's Cozy Corner! Please make sure to like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and subscribe to our E-mails!

Do you have a hard time seeing out of your tiny peephole?
Is your peephole too high for you or your children to see out of?
I’m only 5’0″ and I have always had to stand on my tiptoes to see out of most peepholes.  I was so excited to find the PeepHole Viewer by Brinno.  They make several models.  The original version of Brinno’s PeepHole Viewer uses an LCD Panel to display who is at your door.  It turns a hard to see image into a big, bright image that is easy to be seen by adults and children alike.   The Brinno peepholes are also great for the elderly as well with it’s easy, one button operation.
Brinno’s second generation PeepHole Viewer comes with a 3″ vertical LCD screen that shows a big, bright image but it also has an Image Recording function.  This is the version I received to review.  Installation was fast and easy.   It took no longer than 5 minutes to install it from start to finish.   No need to drill any new holes.  And it is so easy to use, even children can use it to see who is at the door.  My children know never to open the door no matter who is at the door, but now they can easily see who the visitor is and let me know.
When you press the power button, it will record the visitor’s photo on a MicroSD card (not included), too.

I was also given the optional knock sensor.  With the knock sensor installed, whenever someone knocks on the door, the PeepHole Viewer turns on and records a picture of the visitor.  Now I never have to wonder who stopped by my house when I wasn’t home.
 I LOVE our Brinno PeepHole Viewer.  I feel much safer knowing that my children and I can all see who is at the door.   This is a great product for anyone with a family.  It is also great for anyone who has trouble seeing out of a small peephole.

Brinno also make a line of time lapsed cameras, too.
