If you've followed the blog for awhile, you've probably seen a few of my salmon recipes pop up.

Lemon Pepper Salmon Recipe My first tip when preparing salmon is to buy wild-caught. If you have a store that carries wild caught salmon and farm raised Read more [...]

So far, I'm just not quite up to the level of deliciousness that they have achieved, but maybe it comes with age?! Mom likes to make tasty food that is also simple. This is a 'go to' recipe that my mom actually created herself! She's tweaked it many times over the years to get it just right, and now, I'm sharing with you (with her permission). Mom says that she loves to make these bars when she and Read more [...]

I have tried lots of different masks and I can say that the HALOmask is one of my favorite! HALOLIFE is based in Santa Rosa, CA. They Read more [...]

I was sent a copy of Protecting Your Child's Health. This is a sponsored post. There is an affiliate link in this article. All opinions are my own. While I'm sure parenting has never been a walk in the park, it seems that modern parents have SO many aspects to consider when deciding how to parent their children. While we live in an information age and most of us walk around with access to almost limitless information in our pocket thanks to our internet-accessible phones...it can still be hard Read more [...]
