Hey, everyone! How has your weekend been? It's a rainy weekend here in New Jersey, and my family and I are feeling a little cooped up because of the weather!

Cyber Monday at Kohls
I am not much of a Black Friday shopper, so I slept in on Friday instead of hitting the stores. (I am not one for getting up very early or for pushing and shoving.) LOL!

Hot Shot® Insecticides Giveaway
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Hot Shot® Insecticides. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. My husband and I used to subscribe to a regular pest service. It was great: Whenever I saw an ant, spider or any kind of bug in my home, I picked up the phone, called the pest service, and the bugs were gone. But that peace of mind was pricey and cost hundreds of dollars a year! Now getting rid of bugs in my home is my husband’s and my job, so I am so glad that I found Hot Shot® Insecticides, especially Hot Shot® Ant & Roach Plus Germ Killer Fresh Floral Continue reading...

Psychology of Paint Colors for the Home
A friend of mine has a red dining room, while I have a yellow kitchen and a green bedroom. Red is a popular color for dining rooms, while yellow is a common kitchen color.

They have a fun infographic that explains the "psychology of color" and why certain colors are good choices for specific rooms. For example, red is a good choice Continue reading...

Lemon, Orange and Vinegar Microwave Cleaner
Over the past few months, I have been trying to make the switch from commercial cleaning and beauty products to more natural (and less expensive) homemade ones.
