Hello! I am Penelope. I live in The Woodlands, Texas with my husband and 3 sons, ages 6, 3,  and a newborn! My Fed Ex and UPS delivery men have each told me to “Keep it up!” and “We love you!” I love to shop on the internet. It saves time and needless hours of pain forcing my children to “sit tight” while I shop. I love to share great things I find with my family and friends, so that’s what I am here to do…   

When I started Penelope’s Pitstop: Praiseworthy Paraphernalia, I started it just for fun…to share fun things I found with my friends and family. Since then, I was surprised and excited when people who didn’t know me started reading and enjoying my blog. I had many offers to host Give-Aways and do Product Reviews that I originally dismissed. Now, it seems like something I might enjoy. My home page, “Praiseworthy Paraphernalia” is exactly that. They are things that I have found on my own or through a guest contributor that we find to be particularly Praiseworthy. The products under “Product Reviews” and “Give-Aways” are products that I have been asked to review and/or give away by a vendor. I give you my word that I will insist upon first-hand use of all products that are introduced to me by a vendor in order to relay my personal experience with that product.  If after using it or seeing it I don’t like it….I don’t review it.  All my reviews are just that…my reviews and my opinion. (All Give-away winners must be in the Continental United States.) Welcome! And I hope you enjoy Penelope’s Pitstop…feel free to contact me about one of your favorite things! 

This is my sister, Wynne.  She lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma with her husband, a daughter, 11, and a son, 8.  Wynne contributes on “Wynne’s Day”…Wednesdays.  It is really fun being able to keep a blog together 9 hours apart!  Penelope’s Pitstop is fortunate to have Wynne in Tulsa for the local to Tulsa reviews.
