Time for Autumn Clean Up!
When it comes to preparing my house for the influx of relatives and friends that are coming over to feast for the holidays, I am totally meticulous in my cleaning ritual. I clean things that during the rest of the year might not get the attention it deserves, like the top of cabinets and the cabinets under…
It’s Flu Season! Be Prepared!
They are sounds we’re all familiar with this time of year- snuffling, sneezing coughing…and we all run in the opposite direction from where the sounds are emanating.

Our Lives in Pictures
When I was 13 years old, I got a Canon Sure Shot for my birthday. I was so excited, for many reasons, but the biggest reason was that it took 35mm film. I had always loved taking pictures, whether in front or behind the lens, but I was always relegated to 110 film, Polaroids, or…
