I have deep admiration for anyone who decides to dip a manicured toe into the very crowded world of skin care products (unless you’re Kim Kardashian, then I really don’t care). And even more admiration when the products are made with all natural ingredients by women who live locally…

I don’t know about your Instagram feed…but mine is crammed full of suggested posts about food. Truth be told, it has sucked me right in. I’m not a great cook, heck I’m hardly a good cook and I attribute it to the fact that…

Whoa…it’s been a crazy year hasn’t it? Along with the up’s and down’s of the pandemic that we’ve not doubt all experienced - it’s been a difficult year for me personally as well. I wanted to share a little of that with you…
