I haven’t read Dr. Howard Murad’s anti-aging prescription The Water Secret, but I’ve heard some good things about it. From what I understand, it’s basically a common sense approach that emphasizes a healthy diet (rich in raw fruits and vegetables) as the best means for attaining your most beautiful skin. It sounds good to me, and…
I’m no scientist, but if I were, this is the kind of experiment I’d perform: I’d have one woman with fabulous hair and one woman with terrible hair run a foot race. If my hypothesis is correct, Ms. Rapunzel Locks would clock in well ahead of Ms. Brillo Pad Head. That’s because we all know how empowering great hair…
No matter what you’re wearing, a brilliant smile is the best accessory, which is why I’m always on the lookout for new dental care products. I’ve written before about my Sonicare toothbrush. While I love it, though, it’s not for everyone. It’s a bit of an investment, and because you must periodically purchase replacement brush heads for…
Despite the fact that they’re my birthstone, it took me a long time to get into pearls. They just didn’t suit my personal style. Over the past few years, though, my style has evolved and I have gotten into them in a big way. These days, I wear my pearl studs at least three days…
I’m a total bath junkie, always on the lookout for new products I might enjoy. This could seem frivolous. What you use to bathe can’t really matter, right? It’s the bathing itself that’s important. Well, no. Here’s why I disagree: The shower and bath are sanctuaries. No matter what else is going on in your life, it’s a…
Guess what just rocked my world? Behold. Three words: FAVORITE. SCRUB. EVER. I received a nice-sized sample a few months ago, but at the time, my skin was still stuck in the post-winter blues. I was craving moisture, not exfoliation, and you can’t reasonably expect both, right? Ha! The other day, with summer in full swing, my…
So I have a confession. In my house, we waste too much food. Despite the fact that our pantry and freezer are perpetually stocked, we order in Thai or Chinese any night I’m feeling tired or lazy. I rarely finish my meal, so it ends up in the trash. Even worse, I often find myself tossing produce that’s passed its prime…

So I happened upon a store that I have got to share with the people… I had never heard of Martin + Osa before but they are a classic American cool for the classic American gal. Outrageous prices? Nopers. Ill fitted clothing? Ummmm EXACT opposite. I had one of those experiences where everything I tried…
I was fortunate enough to be given the opportunity for a phone interview with actress Angela Kinsey, best known for her role TV’s Emmy award winning comedy “The Office”. She is also in Clairol’s Nice ‘n Easy commercial as “Gigi” – your “Guardian Girlfriend” helping you to keep dark roots at bay! Ms. Kinsey was…
I have recently been introduced to the wonderful world of makeup. I was never a girl who loved makeup. In fact, I recall all those times I had to go to a sweet sixteen or wedding and my mom was always telling me to use some lipstick. I guess I always had in my mind…
Recently, I was lucky enough to attend a wonderful blogger event, hosted by TJX- the parent company of both TJ Maxx and Marshalls. I’ve always loved both stores, but the event gave me some really great behind the scenes info about how the stores are run, and what their executives are doing to make the…
In the face of the US economic crisis, environmental issues have fallen off our radar. There seems to be some widespread rumor that says going green has to cost us big bucks. There is in fact a great deal we all can do to cut down on waste without hurting our bank accounts. It’s reaching…
I recently decided to stay home full time with my children after working a wretched job that basically had no redeeming qualities except for a paycheck. It has been quite an adjustment for my wardrobe to say the least! I was used to wear power suits and high heels on a daily basis. I had…
So I know this post is going to probably end up being all “housewifey” and for that I apologize in advance. But there is a story to be told here… About a week or so ago I was at good old Target, picking up my household supplies. I needed to stock up on laundry detergent…
