As you are aware tonight (Saturday) is the Biggest Full Moon of the Year. Although the full moon is not until Sunday, Saturday it can be viewed at it’s fullest.
While we are researching the full moon event, we have emotions of feeling, shocked, humbled, flattered and violated discovering that NASA has used our photo numerous times claiming IT IS THEIRS!!!
How would you feel?
At the moment we are gathering our thoughts and our evidence. We are being accused of stealing from NASA because we are posting the picture. NASA, I think you have some explaining to do.
At least give us some credit!!!!
This is the photo we are referring to!!
How cute is this? …I mean the shirt!!!
Tshirtprinting.net generously supplied me with the Funky Monkey t-shirt for my review.
I’m still hanging onto the fact that it’s absolutely adorable. The familiar cartoonish monkey is an eye catcher, but that isn’t their only product.
They have a wide range of garments including T-shirts, hoodies, vests, sweatshirts, polo shirts on Gildan, Fruit of the Loom, Hanes, & Screenstars. If you don’t see what you are looking for, just ask tshirtprinting.net.
My findings:
The t-shirt is a Gildan heavy cotton shirt, and preshrunk so there are no surprises. I received the grey so it was hard to test for any fading. Like all your t-shirt with silk screen logos, wash them inside out and hang to dry. I did this and there was no lifting of the design and no shrinkage or cracks. The t-shirt kept it’s shape and no stretching. The size was an XL, and I think I could have easily managed with a large, or even the medium. The sizing is generous.
If you looking for shirts for your team, company, or just yourself, visit tshirtprinting.net and I’m sure they can help you. After all they have been doing this for over 20 years.
If you’re looking for personalized T-shirts then they would love to help. They can work with you to ensure the results impress and can offer advice along the way. Whatever your requirements are please give them a call on 0800 046 7633 or contact them through ‘Get a Quote’
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. These opinions are my own. I was not financially compensated for this post.
Congratulations to our recent winner

Thank you for supporting our blog. It is truly a labour of love.
I would like to take a moment of your time and introduce you to Sandy. She is a local entrepreneur, who has taken a hobby and making it a business. With her idea, she is launching Pinnylane
Like most new businesses, she is taking the baby steps towards making a success out of her idea, and honestly, I see her vision.
“Over the last few years I have been collecting vintage aprons… I have recently decided to create my own aprons made from these vintage styles. Pinnylane aprons are handsewn by me… and no two are alike!”
Sandy’s craft is amazing, providing quality, uniqueness, detail, right down to the pockets, and adding vintage buttons to enhance.
Pinnylane currently can be found at local bazaars, and she is in the process of developing a facebook page.
Please visit Pinnylane on facebook.
Sandy’s future plans include having her products available through Etsy, at Sew Accordingly .
Sew Accordingly shares the same passion for her craft, emphasizing quality, and uniqueness.
These two ladies have a talent that I envy. I couldn’t sew a button on a shirt if my life depended on it.
Rose themed apron (left), Sandy (right)
Pinnylane has graciously donated the rose themed apron.
Honestly, this is a one of a kind item that says “Mom” for Mother’s day. The apron is feminine, and is as unique as “Mom.”

Mom and pop business are able to stay competitive by differentiating themselves from their large-scale competitors with a unique product, exceptional service and/or other personalized feel.
This is why we love CamTech Photographic Services located in Hamilton Ontario, where we receive personal, and knowledgeable staff . The atmosphere is relaxed, and there is no pressure to make that initial sale. We work hard for our money, and finding an establishment that is willing to take the time to answer our questions, assist us with our photography needs, and give us access to the owner, is becoming a lost commodity.
We are regulars at CamTech Photographic Services, receiving fantastic service. We never hear the words, “I don’t know/or that isn’t in stock”. Their answers are: “Let me find out for you/let’s order that for you.” Not every visit to their shop means spending money. Sometimes we go just to “kick some tires” as some may say. Just to look, chat and browse. We never feel irrelevant, but instead valued and welcome at any time.
I recently upgraded my camera to a Pentax K5 (yes, my dream). Bill purchased one last year and has not had a moment of regret since that day. I admit I had camera envy, and now I have mine!!!
Thank you CamTech for the fantastic service, past, present, and I know the future.
Thanks to Roger at CamTech for providing Picture Ontario with a Sunpak LensPen cleaner. This a must. This is great for safely cleaning all camera and camcorder lenses.
I know, some of you are thinking…. sure he would give us something because I bought a new camera, but ask yourself a question…. if you asked for a freebie from a mass chain, would they give you something, or would you receive a smirk with a quick burst of laughter?
