•
People Magazine Half Their Size X6 Wow! Every time I get an opportunity to be featured in People Magazine’s “Half Their Size” issues I’m astonished. I’m overwhelmed that my story is STILL relevant and timely and I’m also amazed that I always seem well prepared. What it’s taught me is that…

ohhh hello ALOE! 🍃

Mason Jar Noodle Soup 🥄

Another EASY, layering recipe. And once again there is nothing to cook, just add hot water! Soup is a wonderful lunch or dinner idea in the colder months. I refuse to eat those processed “cup o noodles” in a Styrofoam cup or pay $12 for a delicious bucket of real…
