With new year’s resolutions still fresh in our minds, most of us want to eat light to shed that holiday weight while still enjoying eating. My soups are always ‘stick to your ribs’ good without actually ‘sticking to your ribs’. Soups are the best way for me to watch what I eat without starving.... Read more »

I’m not persistent in achieving these goals so they always end up falling by the wayside well before spring. This year, I want to choose a goal that I can actually accomplish... Read more »

  They say that laughter is the best medicine and I am ready to put that saying to the test in 2013.

It’s Raining, It’s Pouring…

It’s National Umbrella Month! I guess it happens in March so we’re all prepared when those April showers arrive because there are so many sizes, designs, and materials out there that it seems like we should have added “find the perfect umbrella” to our New Year Resolutions. But, never fear! I’ve found a handful... Read more »
