Fall is the best season to spend outdoors and with family. It’s also my favorite time of year. I refuse to let Covid cancel all of our fun activities so today I want to share some fun activities that are NOT CANCELLED. Sharing some you know and some you might not be aware of yet. I am all about new traditions.
Read MoreI have a love/hate relationship with food. I love to eat, I love to try new ingredients and cuisines, I love to savor. I hate what certain foods due to my body as I’ve gotten older. My digestion and gut health has changed dramatically over the years and while I have found some work-arounds; I miss a lot of things. Truth is, there are some amazing substitutes that can almost get you there flavor-wise. You just have to experiment a lot to find the right brand. In my case, once I do I repeat, repeat, repeat!
Read MoreThis summer has gifted us with beautiful weather for which I am eternally grateful. Given the amount of time we have spent at home, semi-socializing; it’s been a godsend to have a backyard to enjoy along with quiet beaches and parks. And the occasional patio date nights have given me all the more reason to dress up and get out of cut offs. Speaking of which…if you’re anything like me, you’ve spent the last four months eyeing amazing online deals from fashion to home so I thought I would share the things I purchased in July that I truly loved.
One of which has nothing to do with fashion!
Read MoreGood morning! I received such a great response when I shared my codes and incentives via IG stories, it only made sense to share on the blog.

Read MoreDespite the fact that we don’t know what to say or how to articulate our feelings regarding last week’s events; saying absolutely nothing at all seems like a stance as well and that’s not one I am willing to take. Instead, I want to use this week to find ways to educate myself, my family and most important of all - be part of the change. I want to help put an end to hatred once and for all. In doing so, I want to share a list of resources that I am discovering or have connected to in the past. I expect this list to grow with more time and education.
Read MoreAt best, I have two beverages in front of me at all times. Caffeine is a constant be it in the form of coffee in the morning to iced tea in the afternoon. I’d like to think I am pretty hydrated. But I wasn’t. Truth is, I really loathe drinking plain water. It’s just so B-O-R-I-N-G. While I know it is the best thing for your body, it’s always been such a chore for me. Unrelated, I have a host of GI issues so you can imagine what the lack of water does for my body. Not a good sitch.
