My mom started me at a young age with making crafts. Together, her and I often would make gifts to give away during the holidays. I was close to ten when I completed my first cross stitch pattern. It was simple, but I was so proud of it. Twenty plus years later and I...

It occurred to me as I was typing this up that this is an almost cruel blog for some of you. With the new year's arrival, there are a lot of dieters amongst us. I am not one of them. It's not because I am on of those blessed with a high metabolism or am naturally...
Can you go wrong with chocolate?
A few years ago, my mom bought me a cookbook called Chocolate Everything. And let me tell you, it contains anything you can imagine and it's all CHOCOLATE! If it would have been me, I would probably have called it the PMS cookbook. One year, we were very broke. My...

How the Grinch Stole the Christmas
I am one of those people who become very child-like at Christmastime. Everything becomes new again. And if we are going to discuss holiday books, this one has to be my absolute favorite. It's the fact that the Grinch actually gets what the holiday is supposed to be...

Is there any story more popular at this time of year? If so, I don't know of it. I think this story is probably most special for me because of my grandma. I remember sitting on her lap as she rocked me in her rocking chair and as she rocked, she would recite this poem...
