Julia Alvarez has suitcases full of history (public and private), trunks full of insights into what it means to be a Latina in the United States, bags full of literary wisdom. "Los Angeles Times" From the internationally acclaimed author of the bestselling novels "In the Time of the Butterflies" and "How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents "comes a rich and revealing work of nonfiction capturing the life and mind of an artist as she knits together the dual themes of coming to America and becoming a writer. The twenty-four confessional, evocative essays that make up "Something to Declare" are divided into two parts. Customs includes Alvarez s memories of her family s life in the Dominican Republic, fleeing from Trujillo s dictatorship, and arriving in America when she was ten years old. She examines the effects of exile--surviving the shock of New York City life; yearning to fit in; training her tongue (and her mind) to speak English; and watching the Miss America pageant for clues about American-style beauty. The second half, Declarations, celebrates her passion for words and the writing life. She lets us watch as she struggles with her art--searching for a subject for her next novel, confronting her characters, facing her family s anger when she invades their privacy, reflecting on the writers who influenced her, and continually honing her craft. The winner of the National Medal of Arts for her extraordinary storytelling, Julia Alvarez here offers essays that are an inspiring gift to readers and writers everywhere. This beautiful collection of essays . . . traces a process of personal reconciliation with insight, humor, and quiet power. "San Francisco Examiner and Chronicle" Reading Julia Alvarez s new collection of essays is like curling up with a glass of wine in one hand and the phone in the other, listening to a bighearted, wisecracking friend share the hard-earned wisdom about family, identity, and the art of writing.

Great for toddlers!
Color: Bees, Color: Bees
Perfect size for a 1 year old - he got the hang of these within seconds. Our small silicone utensils can't stab anything, but the other metal toddler ones were way too big for him. They were definitely smaller than I expected, but they are perfect. Here is a picture for size comparison to our other kid utensils.

Favorite Daily Moisturizing Sunscreen!
I heard about this product on Dr. Dray's You Tube Channel. She is a great dermatologist that gives excellent recommendations on sunscreens and beauty products. She uses science based research & reputable companies. She is also conscious of product costs and offers budget friendly options to protect your skin. Eucerin is one of her favorites and sunscreen is a daily requirement, not a recommendation if you want to keep healthy skin. I have been on the search for years for a favorite. I kept getting greasy results or a white cast. This one offers more of a moisturizing effect as it has hyaluronic acid in it along side sunscreen to protect your skin. I have never had a white cast from this one. It is not waterproof, but a nice one for daily use and under make up. It doesn't smell or clog my pores. I have used about 4 bottles at this point and plan to keep using this one. It is great! I also use the body sunscreen in the tube as well. I like them both.

Absorbs well; no oily feel. Great sun protection!
I got a sample of this from my dermatologist and loved it so I switched to this brand! It has a lightweight feel, absorbs well without leaving a white cast, and has a matte-like finish without feeling dry. It's similar to Laroche-Posay Anthelios Clean Sunscreen, but is more moisturizing and a lot cheaper! I have rosacea - this sunscreen doesn't cause breakouts. I use the 50 SPF facial moisturizer on my face (duh) and the tube of the 30 SPF on my neck and chest. Great products!

Amores y semiodios
Tengo la piel del cuerpo seca y la de la cara es mixta con tendencia al acné. Decidí probar estos protectores solares, ya que uso productos que dejan mi piel fotosensible. Probé el protector solar corporal y me gustó. Tiene una consistencia bastante líquida, pero se esparce muy fácil. Se demora un poco para absorber, no deja una sensación pegajosa ni grasosa, pero se siente un poco pesado por un ratito. Inicialmente deja un olor algo fuerte e incómodo, que en un par de minutos desaparece. No me expongo directamente a la luz del sol casi nunca, pero no he notado ningún tipo de quemadura y oscurecimiento de la piel, por lo que creo que cumple con la protección solar. En general, me gustó el producto. Otra historia es el protector solar facial. Tiene una consistencia tipo crema, se esparce fácil, no deja residuo blanco, no deja sensación grasosa o pesada. Se absorbe rápido. Pero luego de un par de usos, me brotó la piel del rostro. En cambio, a mi esposo que tiene piel seca en su carita, le ha servido mucho. No le ha generado ningún tipo de reacción adversa y su piel lo aceptó desde el primer momento. Luego de una semana de uso, no tiene ninguna queja al respecto. En fin. Los productos son bastante buenos, pero yo, con mi tipo de piel, no usaría el protector solar facial.
