A journey to good health and happiness
I have been naïvely promising my other half that I would make him some homemade bagels. How hard could it be? Ha! Well now I know. The end product was both pleasing to the eye and taste buds, but holy cow was it a lot of work. I started with a recipe I had seen [...]
Fall is well and truly here. As I write this, it is overcast and rainy out, and I am bundled up in my pink fuzzy sweater on the most comfy seat in the house in my lavender office in front of the radiator. Oh yes, and my house smells so darn good right now! The [...]
Today everyone is talking about…….Finding the Music in Life I like to think of every day as a new opportunity. You can have a day where you are ready to pull your hair out, but how you let that affect you (or not) is key. One of my aims in of getting fit and healthy [...]

I was debating before I went away as to if I would blog while I was away. Given the roaming charges between the UK and Spain, and the time needed to blog, I decided to enjoy my time away instead. I will post some cool pics tomorrow. The food was amazing however! The seafood and [...]
