My good friend Janelle is making stamped jewelry that captures the Christian messages of grace, faith, and love. She offered to send me a piece, and I chose “By Grace Alone” for my necklace. I love wearing jewelry thats message is as beautiful as the jewelry itself. Her company is called Grace Tags, and she has [...]
This is my 3rd and final wine review for the California Wine Club, and it is with much sadness and regret that I bid this campaign adieu. I mean, hello, free wine every month!??? That’s my kinda blog campaign! Of course, it doesn’t have to end. Well, the free part does. I’m pretty sure I can’t [...]
After watching others wearing them with skirts, skinny jeans and even cropped pants, I finally bit the bullet and got my first pair of ankle boots. Actually, that isn’t entirely true. I had ankle boots — but I’ve always worn them under boot-leg jeans. Lately, though, ankle boots are popping up with all sorts of [...]
It seems like every year, holiday celebrations become more and more of a production (not to mention, more and more expensive). The decorations go up earlier and earlier, gifts get bigger, Christmas card lists get long and longer, traffic gets busier and busier, and do you notice how uptight everyone seems during the holiday season?

(Okay, I didn’t lick anything. I SWEAR!) Point being, everything on [...]

Did you know that October is National Cookie Month? Well, it is. Since going gluten free, cookies are one thing I miss dreadfully. I am really trying not to eat so much sugar and carbs, but every once in a while, a girl just needs a sweet treat. The first time I saw Udi’s cookies [...]
Yesterday, I took part in the Don’t Fret the Sweat Talk on TheMotherhood. We had a great conversation about tweens heading back to school, how to keep them organized, the best ways to deal with the homework wars, and what to do about schoolyard bullying. These are not easy topics, but there were a lot [...]
A few weeks, okay, months ago, I received a package on doorstep from Stonyfield containing a collection of summertime goodies by way of introducing their new organic frozen yogurt bars. Is your mouth watering yet?? These are the first dark chocolate dipped frozen yogurt bars on the market. I know, yum, right?? Since you can’t exactly ship [...]
I rarely accept book reviews, but when I received an email offering me a copy of What’s Eating Your Child?: The Hidden Connection Between Food and Your Child’s Well-Being, my interest was immediately piqued. What’s Eating Your Child? is about the hidden connections between food and childhood ailments such as anxiety, recurrent ear infections, stomachaches, [...]
