I grew up drinking hot coco with my breakfast, and never ever dreamt of adding anything else to my chocolaty milk, till now.... http://houseresort.blog//flavor-boosters%f0%9f%98%83%f0%9/

I know we just left the holiday season behind, but Valentine’s Day is one of my favorite days to give & receive gifts. Of course chocolate and flowers are the most appropriate, and common gifts, but for a special person I also consider perfumes or colognes. I think flowers are appropriate for any occasion as a gift. It doesn’t matter what age or gender, happy or sad occasion, flowers are neutral, and thoughtful.... http://houseresort.blog//19/looking-for-a-gift%f0%9f%a5%b0/

When it comes to decorating and purchasing furniture for my house, I feel smarter and happier buying a piece that can have more than one purpose.

I love to grill. Food just tastes better on the grill. My usual grilling ritual is chicken or beef and a good marinating recipe, with a side of everyones favorite vegetables or salads. What you need for this chicken recipe is: 2 boneless breasts of chicken juice of 1 lemon, salt, black pepper Usually baguettes or burger buns for the sandwich bread, and plenty of butter on both sides of the bread to keep the chicken moist, and delicious.

The first time I realized my new house had a very shady garden I immediately thought a colorless back yard. And no chance of a vegetable garden. Beautiful mature Camellia plants lined the yard, and a few azaleas bloomed in between. One Japanese maple tree that had grown out of its corner, was overwhelmed by a white dogwood tree, and shaded by a large mulberry tree branches.

Berries for a summer smoothy Who doesn’t like to snack? When taking a refuge at home from the summer heat, it is easy to wonder around the kitchen looking for snacks. I am fan of snacking, and I can spend hours creating cheese trays or snack trays. I mix the chips with the healthy nuts and berries, and balance the bland with salty and spicy.

I used to remember specifically assigning a week night for dinner with my family. Searching for the day were no one had to miss dinner because of a late meeting, softball practice, or travel plans. We sat around the dinner table and enjoy a nice meal as a family.

Warm weather is here, and we are showing a lot more skin & toes. You can’t possibly wear sandals with plain bear toes during summer, so begin with a beautiful pastel nail polish.
