Yes, you can! is the answer, which is great news for the typical apple cider vinegar enthusiast. Before adding apple cider vinegar to the intermittent fasting program, Continue reading...
How to Have Healthy, Gorgeous Hair During the Summer
Summer is here, heralding the start of a new season with warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours. You've heard that you should wash your hair every day to keep it looking fresh and clean, but who has the time to do so? Between work, school, and social obligations, everyone is usually late. It would be simpler to just leave it dirty and leave it that way. But, according to Dr. G.K. Sharma, medical director at a world-class hair transplant center, this is bad for one’s hair. When you go more than a few days without washing your hair, the renowned hair transplant doctor warns, it Continue reading...
Smooth Work Day Cold Brew
I spend much of my work days with a hot cup of tea. But I've been reading that cold brews are milder and sweeter than hot-brewed coffee and that coffee contains healthy antioxidants, can lower inflammation and can protect against disease, so I decided to give cold brews a try. Not to mention that I normally need a caffeine boost to get me through my day. Plus, my friends at Lardera Coffee Roasters recently sent me two of their straight-from-the-farm ground coffees to try, Kenya Washed and Tipica Honey plus a Lardera Cold Brew Pitcher ($24), so I figured the time was right to start making some Continue reading...

My Favorite Things Lately

I have been very busy these days and haven't been able to blog much, so I thought I could share a bit about what I have been up to. Cozy Throw Blanket - Great Amazon Buy My kids and I love to sit underneath soft throw blankets when we watch TV in our family room.

Outdoor Patio Dog Enclosure (Amazon Find)
This post contains Amazon affiliate links. Today I'm sharing a project my husband and I completed this weekend—or, I should say, HE completed! (Here's a BIG shout out of THANKS to my hubby!) I started a new work-from-home job in September, and have been wanting to create an outdoor office of sorts on my patio. The only problem I had is that our yard isn't fenced, and I have a 4-year-old Shih Tzu who wants to be with me basically 24/7. Which is good until he sees a squirrel and wants to go tearing after it! Thus, the need for the fence! I looked into all sorts of fencing options, Continue reading...

How Weekly Meal Plans Can Better Serve You & Your Elderly Parents’ Diet
*This is a guest post. People who juggle different roles in their lives can find it very hard to dedicate time to their elderly parents, who need constant care and attention. During the pandemic, many people quarantined themselves along with their elderly parents so that they could take care of them. But in certain scenarios, it almost becomes an impossible task that calls for external help. One of the most important parts of giving elderly care is meal-prep that suits an older adult’s dietary restrictions. For instance, it’s most likely that your elderly parents have diabetes or Continue reading...
