Growing up, I remember reading Stories from Grandma’s attic, so I was very much looking forward to the newly published Grandma’s Attic Series by Arleta Richardson. I was not disappointed. The new illustrations are precious. I’m thrilled that a whole new generation will get to enjoy stories from Grandma’s Attic. Young Arleta found many great treasures in her grandma’s attic. Each of these treasures held a special story which grandma happily shared with Arleta. Grandma’s entertaining tales always hold a great moral value without feeling preachy. Grandma is sharing her life, her memories, and some of her crazy antics. Readers…

Once we started eating more organic foods and began using more natural products, we also started to transition over to more eco-friendly items. We started using reusable bags. Soon, I realized how much I preferred reusable bags over plastic bags. You could fit more into the bags, and you didn’t have to worry about them breaking. I also found that they were much more comfortable to carry. My main problem was that I had a hard time remembering to bring the bags with me. Enter in my first ChicoBag. The bag tucked up inside a little attached pouch which allowed…

When I heard about this seasoning, I was instantly intrigued and knew…
