His answer wasn’t what I expected to hear. I was expecting some technical comments that I wouldn’t even understand. But instead, his favorite …
We should all try to eat healthier, whether it is gluten-free or not. At our house we exercise by walking at least 3-10 miles a day. I don\’t do the ten, but my husband does. What has happened to us? We have lost weight and we feel so much better. My biggest advice is to …
The next few weeks will be off schedule. Lots going on in my life. Not necessarily in this order, but we have a vacation and a writers conference. Right now I am going to do nine posts on this website, and I have no idea what I\’ll write about. I\’m searching for a way to …
