Did you know that this Sunday is National Artichoke Day? Artichokes are one of the oldest foods known to man, and are actually in the sunflower family. In Greek mythology, Zeus turned his mistress into the first artichoke plant after he caught her trying to sneak out of Olympia. Possibly the strangest punishment theory, ever. A [...]
This year, I’m trying to follow through with projects in all aspects of my life. January’s project was to start tackling some majorly overdue repairs and renovations at my house. In the past eight years I’ve lived in my family home after my father’s death, we haven’t done much in terms of upgrading our living [...]

While there’s only one or two varieties of wine that I’ll drink, when it comes to champagne, I’m a big fan. Maybe it’s the bubbles that make me feel fancy, maybe it’s the fact that it’s a drink usually reserved for special occasions . . . but champagne has always been my preference. And since [...]
I’ve found that my three year old godson, Jaden, has been one of the hardest people to shop for this year. Like every year, I pow-wow with his mom, who also happens to be my best friend, on what items he needs, or what toy commercials make him jump up and down with excitement. Since [...]
