Yes, Halloween is over, and now all the holiday season festivities will begin. Some people hesitate to jump on board as early as November 1st, but I am not one of those people. I used to work in the commercial holiday industry, so I’m totally fine with cranking up the holiday tunes as early as [...]

I am a big fan of keeping used things around for possible recycling. It’s part of the reason why I have to have a yard sale this weekend. I see the potential in so many things, that it’s hard for me to throw things away. But, the other side of that coin is that, often, [...]

A long time ago, when I was growing up in Oregon, I worked at a health food store that had a little cafe in it. It was your average all local, all organic, “buy your exotic grains in bulk” kind of place and I loved working there. The lady that ran the kitchen cooked amazing [...]
