Kids Company to close…
It’s rare for me to post about news or current events, and it’s even rarer for me to post about what I do in my other job, when I am not blogging or trying to parent. I haven’t really watched much news this week, or read what is happening in the world, because I […]
READ MOREDiabetes and Feeding my Family – A guest post
Diabetes and feeding my family – Germaine Waters (SunTempleFood.com) There is no such thing as a “diabetic diet”!!!

READ MORENice feet for summer?
It’s no secret, I don’t really like feet, especially my own. I think my feet are not that pretty, and they do get neglected in the winter. Now the warmer weather is here (it really is summer, the sun is slowly starting to be more evident, honestly) it’s time to ditch my winter shoes and […]
