Quick Update
Hello to anyone here. I appreciate you checking in. Today is Easter and I ate so many carbs! Tomorrow it’s back to low carbs. I can honestly say I notice a huge difference in how I feel when I am eating less carbs. When I say that I mean how much better I feel. Hopefully…

I Love Carbs!

Have you tried doing a low-carb diet? If you have, you will totally sympathize with this post. I am currently cutting carbs in an attempt to lose a few pounds before the cruise. All I can think about is garlic bread and fettucine alfredo! I was writing an Easter post that included the tentative menu…

Hippity Hoppity, Easter’s on Its Way

I love the holidays. I love decorating for the holidays. I love planning my food menu for the holidays. Easter has always marked the beginning of spring for me, no matter what month it falls in. Sometimes the Indiana and Michigan weather would disagree with me. I remember snow on Easter a lot. Living in…

Cruising on the Jubilee

Have you been on a cruise? I’ve never been on a cruise, but that’s going to change very soon. My boyfriend’s dad goes on cruises all the time. He decided for his 80th birthday he wanted the family to go. We have booked our cabin and will be cruising on the newest Carnival ship, the Jubilee. I’ve talked to…

It’s Time To Pamper Yourself

Valentine’s Day Cute

I’ve never been a huge Valentine’s Day person. Don’t get me wrong, I love chocolate and I really wish adults still gave out valentines like we did in grade school. You don’t need a valentine to look cute on Valentine’s day. I’m not a “heart” kind of girl, but I would wear any of these sweaters. All of these…

Looks Like Heaven

I love Chinese food. I love crab rangoons. I love tacos. Imagine my delight when I came across these: These heaven-on-earth tacos can be found at Joe Mama’s Bar and Grill. They are not served daily, only as a special. These come disassembled, so you have to construct them yourself. The only issue I have with these tacos is that…

Spring Is Coming

I know it’s only January, but I have spring fever! We also have a cruise coming up in June, so I’ve been looking at some new wardrobe options. This outfit reminds me of going to the Detroit Tigers opening day, only if it isn’t snowing! I have my lucky green Tigers hat that would coordinate with the watch…

Look Cute and Save $25

I’m at the age where I would rather find the best value item, not the one that is the hottest new thing or the must-have brand. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t buy the lowest priced option, price versus value are two different things. So let’s talk about those pink and red drink tumblers Target is…

How to Make Friends?

Since I have maybe 2 readers, this question may not get answered, but I’m going to ask anyway. How, as an adult, do you make new friends? I know what I would tell someone: at work, volunteer somewhere, church, social groups….. Well let me tell you, those answers seem easy enough, but believe me they…
