How I Met My Husband: When Love Is Meant To Be
When my kids were little, they used to love hearing the story of how my husband and I met. I told them we were in kindergarten and we were having lunch in the sandbox. Instead of pulling my hair to get my attention, he dropped my peanut butter and jelly sandwich into the sand. Our […]
Fifty Shades Of Grey, But Not The Good Kind
When I think of Fifty Shades of Grey, I’m not thinking of the mouth wateringly naughty best seller; the one I just couldn’t put down. I’m referring to the ever burgeoning growth of silver on the top of my head. I blame it on my father. You see, I inherited many good things from him; […]
How To Clean Up The Holiday Madness
I only write about products that I use and love. So, when Method reached out to me, I was delighted to be able to shout from the rooftop (or online equivalent) about how much I adore their products. For years I’ve been using their hand and dish washing soaps, which come in eye-catching colors, shapely […]
What I’m Most Thankful For On Thanksgiving – Aside From Not Having To Cook
Around this time of year, I start pulling out the few Thanksgiving decorations I own. Two stuffed turkeys, a bendable pilgrim and a few little pumpkins. They are all very cutesy and my kids like to tell me they’ve outgrown them, but Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and I can’t help but get […]
6 Things I Would Tell My 20-Year-Old Self
At twenty I was like many kids at that age: A youthful mixture of bravado and immaturity. Every thing seemed SO important. EVERY decision was larger than life. Yet honestly, I didn’t have a clue who I was. In reality, I was just a girl who would struggle with frizzy hair for almost forty years […]
Halloween: Bring. It. On.
I love Halloween. The trick or treating, the haunted houses, the kids in costumes, the decorations, the candy! It’s even better than Valentine’s Day, because you get to dress up. When my kids were little and had no choice but to hang with the hubby and I on Halloween, friends would gather at our house […]
Wordless Wednesday: Start The Day With A Smile
Every morning I look out into the garden and see my happy friend. I know if he’s laughing and smiling it’s going to be a good day. He’s got it all figured out. What is your morning routine to help start your day on the right track?
Dove’s Self-Esteem Weekend: Promoting Beauty, Confidence and Self-Esteem in Young Girls
Body and beauty issues come to girls and women of all shapes and sizes. Middle School and High School can be particularly difficult for girls. Flat-chested, dark frizzy-haired, bucktoothed, and ethnic looking (I was told this), clearly, these were not my best years,
How To Keep Your Smart Phone & iPad Free Of Sticky Fingers
Sticky fingers aren’t always on small hands. If you’re anything like me and can’t seem to keep your hands off your Smart Phone and/or iPad while working in the kitchen, putting on makeup, getting crafty with glue or impatiently waiting for your mani to dry, but want to keep your high tech gadget clean, cover […]
Lite & Easy Egg Salad Recipe- I like egg salad and I’m not afraid to admit it. Neither should you.
I know some of you might cringe at the thought of egg salad, but to me it is divine. And what I love most about it is that it’s one more thing I can make easily in the kitchen. (Hey, I’ll take my successes where I can get them.) Recipe: Add three hard boiled eggs […]
