Pumpkins Galore!

Pumpkins Galore!

It’s that time of year again when pumpkins are back in season and everyone flocks to the nearest farms to get their hands on these fall treasures. Rally the troops-- there are plenty of spots to take the family or friends on a perfect fall day for pumpkin picking! Be sure and scout your local area for the best farms or patches and plan a day trip! The hard part is deciding what pumpkin to pick and what you plan to do with it. Your newly acquired pumpkin can be used for many different things – from carving for a Halloween decoration, using in a wreath to display on your door, whipping up a pumpkin pie or saving the seeds for a delicious snack. Most people forget the cardinal rule--Don't toss those seeds! With a bit of...Read More

Fall Cocktail: The Skinny Vanilla Chai Tea-ni

While it's always sad to see summer go, welcome to Fall and all the wonderful flavors, scents and colors that come with it! This Skinny Vanilla Chai Tea-ni is really something special.

The Worst Pair of Shoes In The World

Let's revisit an old post...

The Worst Pair of Shoes In The World

I remember the day I bought them. The Worst Pair of Shoes in The World. For reals. They’re super cute, don’t get me wrong. I even tried them on in the store and they were fine to walk in. They’re STILL fine to walk in: on even, level, paved flooring. Even just the slightest change in elevation and forget about it. So, why is it if I can walk on level ground in them I can’t walk elsewhere? It seems like a silly question but heed this as a word of caution to anyone buying those super hot shoes and trying them on in the store. It’s not just the super high heel (approximately 5 inches, I was too lazy to go and get an actual ruler so I could be wrong). It’s mainly the nearly two inch platform on the sole of the shoe. I’ve always...Read More
