Welcome to Monday everyone, which also happens to be Veterans Day. I hope many of you have it off from work today and can spend some time honoring those who have served. For breakfast today, we are having these trail mix muffins. Yes, trail mix because they contain raisins, nuts, sunflower seeds and possibly a…
Last week I had the lovely, luxurious opportunity to have a manicure and pedicure at Citron Spa in Providence, Rhode Island. After being greeted, I was brought to this room to enjoy some water, savory snacks and a warm neck wrap while I waited for my appointment. Here is the super comfy pedicure station where…
Morning. I am not ready to say ‘Good’ yet because I am coming out of a migraine haze. Yesterday, I volunteered at my children’s school library and then headed out to take care of some errands. By 11:00, I was hungry and the banana I brought along was not going to suffice so I headed…

I am going to share some resources, tips and suggestions…
I bet you have been bombarded with pumpkin spice latte coffee galore so I decided to share something non-pumpkin that I made today. I decided to get fancy with my coffee drink in hopes that it would help charm away the 5-day headache that is haunting me. My plan has not worked but I sure…
