Disclosure: I was asked to participate in this campaign by the Bounce Back Film Campaign as part of a first-of-its-kind blogger initiative. I will cover the making of the movie from fundraising to premiere throughout the next year. I am being provided promotional material, giveaways and exclusive interviews but this is not a paid post. All opinions are my own.  I love the show Criminal Minds and of course when I heard about the new movie The Bounce Back from executive producer Shemar Moore from Criminal Minds, I knew I wanted to be involved on the project. Shemar Moore was really interested on the screenplay for The Bounce Back. He liked it so much that he did not only decide that he was going to be producing but he was going to be funding the project. "The Bounce Back" is a heartfelt romantic comedy about finding the courage to love after love has let you down. If you want to support the project you can donate or you can help to spread the word. If you donate you can get very cool reward prizes. If you would like to donate, visit the donation page. To stay updated you can follow The Bounce Back on twitter, facebook or visit the website  Disclosure: I was asked to participate in this campaign by the Bounce Back Film Campaign as part of a first-of-its-kind blogger initiative.

Well, what can I tell you, I’m a dog lover, and at our home we think that rescuing dogs is the way to get a pet! Our dog, Da Vinci was my Christmas present for 2011 and since then we have dealt with separation anxiety, him destroying a few things but mostly with unconditional love. He takes over the bed at night and he steals food from the kitchen counter, but he also waits for us and greet us with love and kisses and he protects the house and shows us his affection by waving his tail.  We rescued him from the pound. I cannot even imagine why someone would give up a pure breed German Shepherd at the pound. But it is their lost and our gain. He shows some little signs or abuse as he is scared of some toys and kids, but we have trying to overcome all those fears with love. Unfortunately not all dogs and animals at shelters get a happy ending and find a good home as Da Vinci did. There is overcrowding and more and more times some animals have to be euthanized. So when I heard about the Givebones project, I knew I wanted to tell everyone about it. Givebones helps homeless dogs, they sell dog collars to raise funds that are provided to animal shelters and rescue groups to avoid animals being euthanized. They also raise awareness about the overcrowding at the shelters.  Givebones’ founder, Tricia Andrews is doing a great thing. Givebones give 10% of their sales of every collar back to shelters and rescue groups to stop dogs from being euthanized. You can purchase collars at their website they retail for $14.99 and come in a variety of colors and sizes. Each collar comes with a wristband that helps you support the cause and promote it among friends. We love our rescued dog and we are proud of support this program.

We did not have a dishwasher in Colombia. So I have to say one of the kitchen appliances I appreciate the most since moving to the U.S is the dishwasher. Just thinking that I do not have to destroy my manicure doing dishes sounds like a great idea for me. However sometimes I rather do the dishes by hand so they are clean and sparkling that using the dishwasher and have dirty dishes. I’ve used Cascade product for long time now because after trying other products I have discovered that Cascade products work. However we have hard water at home and the glasses were still coming out of the dishwasher with some spots. So when I received the sample of the Cascade Platinum Pacs I was really excited to see if finally I was going to be able to have sparkling glasses and super clean dishes. And not only my dishes are clean and sparking, but my dishwasher is cleaner too. I am also loving not having to worry about the soap and the rinse aid and if I forgot to put something to make my dishes clean. The Cascade Platinum Pacs are just perfect. They are all you need to have your dishes clean and you do not need to pre-wash or soak for hours.
Top Chef judge and editot of Food + Wine Magazine, Gail Simmons, likes Cascade Platinum because she likes to take beautiful picures of food and having clean dishes is very important. You can find the Cascade Platinum Pacs at retail stores and they come in Fresh and Lemon Burst scents. They are not expensive, the retail price is $4.29 (for 14), $6.69 (for 23), $12.49 (for 43). To learn more you can visit the Cascade Website and also like them on Facebook You can also enter the My Platinum Instagram contest. You can submit your best food photos for a chance to win a new dishwasher or the grand prize will win a Platinum Kitchen Makeover.

My mom is my best friend. And as you do with best friends you can have fights but you also forgive each other. I consider my mom my hero and my inspiration. I learned so much from her. I think that I was able to accomplish a lot of things in my life because of her advice. She gave me confidence and taught me to be persistent and fight for what I love. I learned form her that
