I’m sure you all remember that I have been testing Arm and Hammer’s Spinbrush Pro Clean electric toothbrush. After four weeks, using the battery operated toothbrush, I’m sold. As a matter of fact, I went out and bought these toothbrushes for every member of our family. That’s huge! We don’t just spend money on every [...]
As much as I love cooking and baking, my husband enjoys eating what I make. Because of lactose intolerance and digestive problems, that hasn’t been as easy for him over the last few years.

Now that school is back in full swing, I know that your time in the mornings is at a premium. The temptation is to skip breakfast and let the kids skip or eat something they can grab on the way out the door – usually not the healthiest option. Statistically, we already know that your [...]
I had the great privilege, this week, of participating in Elmer’s Bag it Forward program. For weeks now, people around the country have been filling backpacks with school supplies and donating them to students and schools in their communities. As a matter of fact YOU can take part in this fun and heart-warming project, too, [...]
