Refusing the #iamafailure Culture
This post is for every female out there. Every mom, every single woman, every business woman, every wife, every daughter, every student…every female! Why?
Natural and Safe Remedy for Sore Throats
Unfortunately sore throats tend to pop up now and then – even in a healthy family. I find that if we spend a lot of time going in and out on super cold days (without wearing the appropriate attire), getting wet in the rain or snow and not changing into dry clothes, appears to tax the immune system a bit.
Do You Sleep?
We are in a generation that doesn’t sleep much. We have too much to do and no time to bother with sleep and rest.
And, man, does it ever show!
Malva Pudding Delight
Some dishes from different cultures can be difficult to adjust to especially since American taste buds aren’t used to the array of spices, herbs and real foods used in these dishes. We know about salt and pepper, but sometimes that’s where it ends. The seasonings and flavors of processed foods are chemically produced – so our tongues and taste buds aren’t quite sure how to handle the culinary tastes like cumin, tarragon, coconut cream – just to name a few.
Coffee and Weight Gain: My Coffee Experiment
This is a post I’m pulling from the archives, because I believe it’s always a relevant topic and issue. This was written almost exactly four years ago! I wanted to share this with you, since I haven’t had coffee in the past month and a half and I am seeing the same results as I did back when I wrote this. I’ve lost 10 pounds and my skin looks more nourished. Coffee is a diuretic, so it can cause some early aging in the skin if you know what I mean! I hope you enjoy this archive that is packed with great information that I know you want to know about!
The Sweet on Blueberries
Want to add some extra goodness to your day? Start consuming more blueberries – an amazing superfood (at least in my book)!
Eating 1-2 servings a day of fruit is extremely beneficial for everyone (unless you have issues with low blood sugar or diabetes, then stick to 1/2 – 1 serving a day). Choosing healthy carbs, like blueberries, are low in sugar, will give you good energy and will provide you with an array of amazing nutrients.
The Hidden Truth About Margarine
This is a wonderful, in depth article on how margarine and butter substitutes are created and the affect this process can have on the human body! I realize that this may not seem like a hot topic for a blog post, but believe me, if you take the few minutes it will take to read this – you will be glad you did!

Egg Muffin Cup Perfection
Move over Egg McMuffin. You’ve got nothing on me.
I’m a firm believer that McDonalds offers no healthy menu options. No matter what their marketing team says.
