At the grocery store, I noticed that about 25% of my cart was filled with fruits and vegetables. Here is what I came home with…

Hello! Thanks everyone for the sweet comments about my bridal shower Can you believe it’s almost March?! May 29th (our wedding day) will be here before we know it!

Are you bored with your veggies? I realized a handful of vegetables (sautéed spinach, roasted asparagus, & steamed sugar snap peas) are in frequent rotation in my house with little variety.

After five years of working in a hospital, I have become somewhat of a germaphobe. I often “take the long way” to get somewhere at work to avoid having to touch doorknobs. I use my knuckles or a pen (instead of my finger) to press an elevator button. I go as far to hold my [...]
