What I love most about them is that they are as comfortable as my running shoes, but they take it up a knotch with fashion & style.

As mothers, it’s important to relay to our children that weaknesses are a part of who we are, we are not defined by those rather we are defined by our strengths. When we truly know who we are, we can feel more comfortable making choices t...

A good heavy bottom pot, wooden spoon & immersion blender or regular blender. Ingredients: 1 medium onion 3-4 stalks of celery 6-7 carrots 1-2 tablespoons of butter Salt Pepper 1 tsp dried parsley 1 tsp dried basil 2 large cans or tomatoes 1 carton on chicken stock 1/2 cup Parmesan Milk or half & half In a large pot, melt butter on medium high heat.
