Drunk Elephant surprised me with a pr package that literally made me squeal! If you have followed me for awhile, you know that I do not wash my face and I do not stick to ANY regimen. I try, but my personality doesn’t allow for it! So when they sent me almost ALL of their face care products, I felt super guilty that I would be wasting them. So, I tried them. And I have been washing my face nightly ever since AND using all of the products. The packaging is beautiful and brilliant! Super easy and non-spilling. Now I do have some favorites so I hope this post is helpful! In NO way is this post sp ..read more

Whoa! Where do I even begin? I know I have kept a lot of you out of the loop and in total suspense throughout the last couple of weeks and maybe even months. I also know that you can understand that when I don’t share things it is for my own good and others around me BUT now I can finally spill the beans…… Some of you noticed my absence from posting certain things and maybe you recognized my old house in a few stories or photos. A lot of you guessed your best guesses and my patients texted me in a rush for their next treatment just in case I was leaving the state ? I am staying put! Some say t ..read more

This baking thing is fun when you nail the perfect recipe the first time you make it ? I had several people try this in my family before I shared it with all of you because well, they are family and they won’t lie if it tastes like crap ? I love fruit crisps but the sugar content is outrageous! I came up with this recipe that is both low in sugar and more healthy than the alternative recipes. I think you can swap out the fruits for whatever you have, but keep in mind, the less sweet your fruit is, the less sweet your dish will be. That is why I chose the 2 fruits that I did ? INGREDIENTS: Frui ..read more
