What’s for ME
As October comes to a close, I’m encouraged. There were a couple of snags this month, but I’ve come to learn — what’s for me is for me. I don’t have to force or try to manufacture things. So the business deals that didn’t go through. Oh well. People who come in and out of […]

“Not Afraid”
When I look at photos of myself as a morbidly obese woman. I don’t really even remember being that person. I don’t really know how I became that way. Well, I do. I ate gross, fattening food and no exercise. What I mean to say, I have no idea how I let it get so […]

Healthy Cooking 101: Roasted Vegetables
