What does it say about my attitude this year that my witty coffee mugs have been replaced by this classic diner mug? Too many episodes of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

A healthier lifestyle and living in the moment…since I’m living in the moment, I can’t ponder how long it could possibly take in the future to think eating vegetables could ever be as exciting as enjoying this beautiful cake…Harper is all for the new lifestyle as long as it’s understood that her and grandma believe…
