Wishes and Dishes

I just realized I forgot to wish all of you ladies a happy Mother’s day this past weekend.  So…..happy belated Mother’s day to all you mothers reading this here blog!  I hope that you were showered with love and gifts. We had a nice streak of Summer weather going last week which got me in [...]

Happy Friday! Does anyone have any big plans for the weekend?  I plan on doing a whole lot of resting to try to kick this cold as soon as possible. I’ve definitely been on a smoothie kick lately and trying combinations that are way outside of my normal smoothie-zone.   For instance, I’ve been making “green [...]
