    Perfectly Sweet Peanut Butter Cupcakes

    February 25, 2016 - By 

    Peanut Butter Cupcakes are moist and delicious and really great treats for kids. My kids are peanut butter junkies, especially the youngest one. She could live entirely on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and the occasional pizza too. I prefer my peanut butter in something sweet like these perfectly sweet Peanut Butter Cupcakes. Or delicious peanut butter cups. Those make me happy too. Maybe even Peanut Butter Fudge. But Peanut Butter and jelly or jam….well that’s a pass for me. Do You Have a Sweet Tooth? If you are like me and have a sweet tooth at all then you…

    The Very Best Gifts for Tea Lovers

    February 7, 2016 - By 

    I might be the world’s biggest tea lover. In fact as I write this post I am brewing myself a cup of tea. There’s something so wonderful about tea, especially in the winter. These days as February looms long and damp and chilly, I find tea is often my beverage of choice. In fact it is often the only thing that keeps me warm. Plus I like that caffeine free or low caffeine tea is a simple way for me to stay hydrated.   Recently I read a book that had a good number of different morning teas recommended for detox.…

    Five Perfectly Sweet Valentine Desserts

    January 21, 2016 - By 

    Those of you who hang out here often enough know that I have a wicked sweet tooth that I am trying to wrestle under control this year. That is a challenge and a half for me. I love all sweet treats even more than I loved salty items. Remember how I ditched salt and have been trimming my sodium intake for well over one year now? That was in the interest of my blood pressure and keeping my heart healthy. I feel like sweet treats occasionally are okay so long as you don’t go too crazy with them. In my…

    Stop Dieting Backwards – Prepare Your Body and Brain for Weight Loss with #ThePrime #Giveaway

    January 11, 2016 - By 

    This is a sponsored conversation in partnership with Harmony Books. My opinion is all my own and it is truthful. What exactly is dieting backwards? This is a question I began asking myself as soon as this new book arrived here. These early days of 2016 I’ve been reading a lot of the content coming out of a huge consumer electronics show.

I like that phrase a lot actually ‘disruptive technology.’…
