According to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention, 44 percent of dogs and 57 percent of cats in the United States are either overweight or obese. As a result, pets are in real danger of developing serious and costly diseases, such as diabetes, arthritis and other avoidable conditions. To help shed some pet pounds and make that bag of dog food last longer, cut down on the amount of food you put in your pet’s bowl. First, record his pre-diet weight. Over a two-week period, reduce the amount you normally feed him by one-fourth. Also, break medium-sized or larger biscuits into two so that your pet has lower calorie treats for today and tomorrow. After two weeks, weight your pet. If he has lost even a little weight, you’re on the right track.

My friend has dewy skin and always a rosy flush. It’s so natural, I can’t really tell whether she’s wearing makeup or not.

So I had to ask: what’s the key to her glow-from-within look? Use a cheek stain before applying foundation or any other makeup. The outcome? The most natural-looking flush.

1.    Start with clean, moisturized skin.

2.    Apply stain onto fingers and dot onto apples of cheeks (smile to find them). Using a circular motion, blend quickly with fingers. For a deeper “pop” of color, repeat.

3.    When stain dries, then go ahead and put on foundation and the rest of your makeup. (Caryn swears by Bare Escentuals’ BareMinerals foundation.)

Check out these great picks for cheek stains:

1.    Benefit’s Posietint. This pretty pink shade replicates an outdoorsy glow. (My friend swears by this!)

2.    Sephora’s Lush Flush Wine Lip & Cheek Stain. This romantic, plummy hue works hand in hand with fall’s rich colors.

I was excited when I heard about JCP Rewards, JCPenney’s loyalty program, because I shop on jcp.com often for cute and affordable dresses and home basics like towels and sheets. To cash in on this program, head to jcprewards.com and register for free. Enter information for the credit or debit cards you use when you shop at the store (this way, the store is able to track your points and you don’t have to carry a membership card). Then, shop away—every dollar you spend in the store, online or catalog will earn you one point. Earn 250 points in a month, and you’ll get $10 in JCP Rewards. Earn more points by using your JCPenney credit card or buying designated bonus items (for example, this month, if you buy something from the St. John’s Bay brand, you’ll earn 50 bonus points). When you earn a reward certificate, you’ll receive an e-mail prompting you to log into your account and print it (or, if you’re shopping online or via the catalog, you can use the code given). Be sure to use your rewards certificate right away—points don’t roll over to the next month.

To spook your guests, be sure to serve this ghoul-aid punch with a hidden surprise. Guest will be terrified when they find a floating ice skull in their bowl. Prepare the skull ahead of time and give the ice plenty of time to freeze. Cover the openings of a Halloween mask with duct tape. Line inside of mask with plastic wrap, and set the mask in a bowl and fill with water. Freeze the mask and pull it out just before guests arrive so they won’t miss out before the ice melts away.

A new program at CVS will pay you for not using plastic shopping bags.

Here’s how it works: For 99 cents, buy a “GreenBagTag” at any CVS story. Clip it on to your key ring or a cloth shopping bag. Each time you complete a purchase and don’t take a plastic shopping bag, the cashier will scan your tag. For every four times you go green, you’ll earn $1 in ExtraCare bucks, redeemable on future CVS purchases.

To participate, you must be a member of CVS’s ExtraCare program, but it’s a snap to sign up. Go to CVS.com and click on “Get your ExtraCare Rewards today” in the top bar.

GreenBagTags will start showing up in stores this weekend and should be in all CVS branches within three weeks, said a company spokesperson.
