Day Two of Smoothie Review
On Saturday, I had an 8-hour shift at my side hustle. I did NOT want to go, but I am not one to skip an obligation. I decided to try the Cold Brew & Almond smoothie for my second review. My youngest assisted me. I’ve decided that to make future smoothie attempts easier on myself,…

Eloise Had It Right
When I am staying at a hotel, it’s because I have traveled somewhere to do something.

Finish 2014 In Style
Aaaaand POOF! Just like that, summer is over and we’ve moved into the final quarter of the year. If you are like me, you started 2014 with awesome intentions. THIS would be the year where I took control of my health, started reading for pleasure again, spent more time with family, organized my entire house,…
