Let me begin by introducing myself, I am Lily; the woman who only used a slow cooker/ crock pot for nacho cheese during a birthday party.  Now that we got that out of the way, WOW!!! The things people make with the slow cookers are amazing!!!  I seriously had no idea what to do with them, hence the nacho cheese; but now; hold me back!!!

One day, and hopefully soon.  Now don’t get scared, I’m not talking about things ending in THAT way 😉I am simply talking about all these bad things that keep happening.  I know that you have noticed my blogging has seriously dwindled, I pop up once in a while and let you know new reasons why I am away.  It has just been so much to deal with.  I have been told by many...

If I had to categorize one store under “sharing & caring” it would definitely be Smart & Final.  As I have made it very clear before, I LOVE the Smart & Final stores.  Not only the stores, but what they do and stand for, at least in my eyes.  Smart & Final graciously offered to host a Thanksgiving dinner for 25+ Service members at my house, they provided me with the gift card and...

Being in social media means always being in a fast paced world.  Networking, socializing, anything you can think of, all happening at the same time.  I never thought in the 4 years that I blogged anonymously that I would ever do it publicly; let alone make real friendships.  I started publicly blogging in Nov. 2009 and immediately things were different, I was me!  No longer hiding, I was open and it felt great.

Are you often at a loss for ideas and especially time when the calendar shows you someone’s special occasion?  I know that for myself I usually run around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to find a gift and make it to the post office all by closing time.  I was asked if I wanted to review a Mrs. Prindable’s gourmet apple. I was excited,...
