This post was sponsored by Starbucks in conjunction with Yummly. I have a confession. I love Starbucks iced coffee drinks. Not that this is particularly a bad thing. I mean, they are pretty darn delicious. However, with a new baby in tow, it’s not so easy to just hop around the corner every time I […]
Yay for my favorite holiday! It’s the 4th of July and I’m seriously craving ice cream. Not in an “oh let’s celebrate this holiday and have a little bit of ice cream” either. Craving it like I think about and want demand ice cream every day and sometimes 2 or [gasp] 3 times. Hey, I’m […]

Sure, you may lose weight if you remove all carbohydrates, persist on mainly juice or restrict yourself to 600 calories a day but are you healthy? Most […]
My days have gotten off to a slow start lately. It seems like before I know it, it’s 3:00 in the afternoon and I haven’t accomplished ½ of what I wanted to. I’ve also been having some difficulty disciplining my dear, sweet obnoxiously bitchy cat, Roxy. She has scratched the living daylight out of a […]
