I found the cutest 2-year-old’s birthday party on the “on to baby” blog. I love the delicateness of it and it’s cute and girly but not over the top. And what an adorable theme…milk & cookies. It seems that a lot of what she used (frames, vases, etc) could be already found around the house, [...]

I don’t know about everyone else but I hadn’t heard of kale until about a year ago. Now all of a sudden every magazine, doctor, and health nut out there is telling us how good it is for you and how we need to incorporate it into our diet. I’ve bought it a few times [...]

The holidays are over and hopefully most of the candy and cookies are far far away from your kitchen. Getting back on track can be tricky, especially with football playoffs starting up this weekend.
