Bubble, Bubble Toil and…Soap

Remember we talked about the great soaps and scrubs from The Bubble Roome? Well guess what kids, they’re back…finally. I thought I was gonna die and junk. I want pretty soap and I want it now. Kidding not really. It was worth the wait however because since I signed up for the newsletter while they […]

See Ya Later Alligator

I’m sick…again. This must be the Universe’s payback for being an insanely healthy child. My nose has been alternately running like a faucet or clogged like the kitchen sink after my husband does the dishes. Anyway my point is that my nose is all sore and more sensitive than normal, if that’s possible. Thank the heavens that I […]

Hope in a Jar for Pennies

I often find myself thinking these days, am I the only one? By that I mean, am I the only normal person in a sea of crazy people? I can’t be the only one who thinks you shouldn’t spend money needlessly just because you can. What does it say about our society that it has become […]

Homemade Skin Cleansers from Whole Foods

Whole Foods Market (referred to in our home as whole paycheck) has some great skin cleanser recipes on their website. Most of it is stuff you probably have sitting around and would not have to make a special trip to go buy. I can’t resist homemade remedies. They are just too easy and you can do so […]

The Incredible Edible Egg

Today on PlanetGreen there’s a great recipe for a firming face mask using egg whites and cornstarch. There’s also tips on what you can do with the leftovers. You can also use the yolk as an acne treatment. Just whip the yolk for a few minutes and then apply to skin. Leave on for 20 minutes […]

Are We Done Yet?

 In my family the Holidays begin the first of November and extend well into February. Thanksgiving, Christmas and a seemingly endless line of birthdays mean that we are so not done with gift giving. Which just makes me want to cry, but anyway. So I came up with a great idea for a gift and I […]

New Year’s Resolutions

After an uneventful New Year’s Eve, my thoughts turn today to the year ahead. I’m not a resolution type of person but I do like to take stock each year and make a plan of action that I think I might be able to stick to. There’s power in numbers so I am encouraging anyone […]

Those Teenage Hoes

“Those teenage hoes in a line at your door”. My husband had me convinced that these were the lyrics to Fiest’s song 1234. It got me thinking about those horrible teenage years. There were no teenage boys in a line at my door. If my teen years had a soundtrack it would be Janice Ian’s […]

Break-Out Protection To Go

Boscia’s Willow Bark breakout treatment has been a life saver this week. I breakout at the drop of a dime. Stress, here come the blackheads. Not enough sleep, I look like I’m 13. So I made sure to pack it this week for our Christmas adventures. Oh and to follow up on our conversation from the other […]

Start With a Clean Slate

Sephora is like Disneyland to people like me. There are few things that make me as happy as beauty products and shoes. I once drove over an hour through Christmas shopping traffic hell in order to visit one of their stores. If you order online, you are given a choice of sample products that they will throw in […]
