As we discussed yesterday, Valentine’s Day is just days away. Do you have your gift options planned? You already know that a big gift is not required to show your love, but you probably want to get your loved one something. Maybe a box of chocolates or a card or maybe you want to surprise your love with some flowers.
Valentine’s Day is just days away….how are you going to celebrate? You know, you don’t have to spend a lot of money to make the day of love special, you just have to be creative and it can be the best Valentine’s Day ever!
My kids absolutely love banana bread. I even put it in their school lunches to switch up the sandwich ritual I seem to have going on. It seems like I am always buying bananas and sometimes we don’t go through them as quickly as I like. So they turn brown and then what do I do with them? I either put them in the freezer or make a batch of this bread. This recipe is super easy and yummy. So the next time you have bananas that are turning a little brown, try this out!
Have you made a 2017 goal involving fitness? If so, you’re definitely not alone. Eating healthy and losing weight are goals that most of us have when starting out a new year. You may have started an exercise routine but quickly find yourself becoming bored with it. If you need a change, these trends could help you out. Each year there are new ways to help us get motivated to exercise and become fit. So what are the fitness trends for 2017? A few of these might surprise you.
You better plan your cheat day for tomorrow because it’s National Chocolate Cake Day and that’s definitely something to celebrate! Here’s a little science about why you’re probably a chocolate lover – chocolate triggers the release of serotonin and endorphins, which are neurotransmitters for happiness and pleasure. It also contains phenylethylamine, which elevates our mood when we feel happiness or love. So why not eat more chocolate cake right 😉 or maybe at least eat more tomorrow!
If you are anything like me, you occasionally (or always) feel like every bit of your free time is spent cleaning. No one has time for that. Life gets busy. Who wants to spend it with a duster or washcloth in their hand? No one. That’s who.
Do you feel like you are always searching for the nearest charger to make sure your phone doesn’t die? Modern technology and all of the fun, handy stuff we can do with our phones is great, the problem is, all of those great things kill our batteries fast! Gone are the days when our flip phone could stay charged for days or weeks on end.
