My heart goes out to those who have lost their homes in the wildfires that are still burning across Texas, and now I’ve found a tangible way to help. My friend Michele of Tierre Verde Soaps just made me aware of someone who is going to make a difference for the victims of these wildfires. [...]
Remember the sugar scrub cubes I posted about yesterday? Well, I’ve made up a couple batches for some willing guinea pigs…er…volunteers to try. If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the following survey, and I will choose 12 people to participate. Even if you don’t want to try the sugar scrub cubes, you [...]
This year since I’ve started couponing and comparing ads, I was able to find all the best deals on school supplies for my girls. This freed up some extra cash so that we could participate in the backpack outreach program that our church is sponsoring through Freedom Fire to purchase school supplies for students in [...]
It was such a close call! Almost Paradise was ahead from the beginning, and stayed that way most of the time the poll was open. There were a couple of times that it was tied with Moonlit Woods, and ended up just barely ahead! I really believe that any of the names would work well [...]
