In December I got my new Verizon phone - the HTC Droid DNA and an Otterbox case to protect it. I have been really putting it to work for a month now. While I love the way the Otterbox protects the phone, I've noticed that it's hard to get the bottom of the screen to react to my touch. I have to really push to get it to do ...

Meal Planning with eMeals.com {#Review}
Once upon a time I was really great about posting my weekly menu, and now I just make my dinner menu on a piece of paper. I list the dinner for each day of the week on one side and list everything I need to purchase on the other side. Having a dinner menu makes the food part of my life super simple! Lately, though, I have been ... Read More about Meal Planning with eMeals.com {#Review}
A Whole New You: Book #Review {and #Giveaway} CLOSED

Wordless Wednesday
My husband had to work after Christmas, so the kids and I went with my mom to visit my sister, my {almost} brother-in-law and my niece. The night before we left, this is what I saw: Zoie (the dog) looks like she is going to poop on Becca, doesn't she?! Becca saying "WHAT are you doing?" This is how they chill. Becca was trying to hide Zoie's ... Read More about Wordless Wednesday

Elizabeth Grant’s Organics Concentrate {#Review}
Most of the time my skincare regimen consists of washing my face twice a day. Since I'll be celebrating the big 3-0 early next year, I've started using moisturizers and that sort of thing. I don't wear a lot of make-up and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I was given the opportunity to review Elizabeth Grant's Organics ...
